Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0 has just introduced a new weapon to its ever-expanding arsenal. This new gun is the M13C assault rifle, a quicker and more compact version of the M13B. This weapon is one that players will definitely want to get their hands on, especially because of the Carry Forward system that will see all the weapons from Modern Warfare 2 being usable in Modern Warfare 3 when it releases later this year. The process of getting this weapon, however, isn’t as simple as just playing the game and going through the Battle Pass since it is a reward for an Event that won’t be around for long. This guide will tell players how to unlock the M13C Assault Rifle in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0.

Modern Warfare 3 will be revealed inside Warzone on August 17.

Genshin Impact is a gacha game, which means every time you try to earn one of its characters from a “banner,” it’s like pulling on a slot machine. It’s not entirely random, however. There’s a mechanic in Genshin called “pity,” and it exists to guarantee you get a chance at the character or weapon you want — provided you can pay. And if you want to reach the point where the game takes “pity” on you and gives you a shot at a powerful five-star character or weapon? Prepare to have empty coffers, either real-world or in-game. Here’s how the pity system works in Genshin Impact.

Phishing refers to a tactic employed by criminals who use fraudulent emails, text messages, or calls to deceive individuals and thereby steal their money and other financial information. The ultimate goal often involves luring victims into visiting a website, which can then lead to downloading malicious software onto their computers or the theft of sensitive personal data, such as bank details. These phishing messages are carefully crafted to persuade recipients to click on seemingly legitimate links, although they are actually designed to deceive. These deceptive practices can result in significant financial loss.

We all love to see faster SSDs. Price aside, the problem with PCIe 5.0 SSDs is they get too hot. That means they need slabs of motherboard metal to cool them, or require creative cooling solutions that work around the relatively tiny M.2 2280 form factor.

Devolver Digital is a company with a grand sense of humor about itself and the gaming industry alone, and recently, they got to showcase that humor when it comes to announcing video game delays, via the first ever Devolver Delayed Showcase. In a quick three-minute video, the publisher announced what titles would now be moving to a 2024 release date, all in a presentation that satirized the style and tone of Nintendo Direct presentations to a perfect degree. As usual, you can check out the whole presentation below, in all its quick glory.

Those with a keen eye — and who turn every stone, loot every chest or defeat every boss — will no doubt come across some Legendary Items during their travels through Faerûn.

In 2018, an interview with Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan went viral — possibly because it was the first time he’d ever appeared relatable. In that conversation, he said his children sometimes jokingly call him Reynolds Woodcock, after the aloof, reserved protagonist of Paul Thomas Anderson’s Phantom Thread. Though Nolan’s scripts often feature signature, repeated (and often mocked) tropes, including time manipulation, dead spouses, and protagonists who face complex moral decisions, he injects very little of his own personality into his movies. Characters like Leonardo DiCaprio’s troubled team leader in Inception and Robert Pattinson’s equally troubled handler in Tenet are clearly styled after Nolan himself. But viewers rarely come away from Nolan movies with a greater understanding of his worldview, at least compared to the way directors like Martin Scorsese or Quentin Tarantino put their personalities on screen in every movie they make.
