Much of Dragon Age II’s appeal had to do with its emotional impact. As protagonist Hawke’s circle of friends grew, so did your connection to the ensemble cast–but it was a connection the game earned over the long haul. A two-hour add-on doesn’t have the luxury of a long-form structure, so it must make an impact in other ways. Dragon Age II: Legacy makes a valiant attempt to strengthen your bond with Hawke, but ultimately it makes little impression. Not that there’s anything wrong with a bit of fun combat and a nice new set of armor. But there are few standout moments in Legacy, unless you count the glitches and other sloppy details you might encounter. This downloadable content is entertaining in its own mindless way, but without a forceful narrative arc to support it, Legacy is soul…
If the Call of Duty franchise is a well-oiled machine, Black Ops III is the replacement part that keeps the wheels moving into yet another year. It introduces minor changes to an established formula, and in some aspects, this is developer Treyarch near its peak. But in other areas, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 lacks inspiration.
Treyarch has set a high bar with its contributions to the Call of Duty series. The first Black Ops introduced a twisting, engaging campaign with vivid characters and historical conspiracies. Black Ops II revamped multiplayer customization, lending deeper player choice to a fine-tuned competitive experience. And now there’s Call of Duty: Black Ops III, a shooter reaching in several different directions with vastly different results.

Wolfsburg have completed the signing of Cologne midfielder Yannick Gerhardt on a five-year contract.
The 22-year-old established himself in Cologne s first-team in 2015-16, making 29 Bundesliga as Peter Stoger s side finished ninth on 43 points – one place and two points below Wolfsburg.
Gerhardt made his Under-21 debut for Germany last season, and Wolfsburg sporting director Klaus Allofs is delighted to have captured his signature.
Yannick is a young player with great potential, Allofs told the club s official website.
He has already demonstrated with Cologne he has the quality to set the tone in the Bundesliga. We are pleased that we were able to convince a player of his talent our way.
Gerhardt is looking forward to the new challenge at …
According to a recent report from Corriere dello Sport, Juventus’ sporting director Fabio Paratici is preparing to step up his efforts of signing Tanguy Ndombele. The 22 year old is in high demand and has been for quite some time now, and despite only joining French club Lyon back in 2018, he’s already being linked with a move away. Ndombele is one of the most exciting young midfielders in world football today so it should come as no surprise that teams like Juve are interested in him, but the question remains as to whether or not he’d be able to break into the first team setup in Turin.
Despite crashing out of the Champions League, Juventus are still widely considered to be one of the best clubs in world football right now. With Ndombele being such a highly rated prospec…
that Chelsea have made a £63.5m bid for Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos.
The reigning Premier League champions, who recently named Antonio Conte as their new manager are ready to smash the British transfer record for the Spain international as they look to rebuild after a dissapointing 2015/16 campaign.
The thirty year old has been at the Bernabeu for the past eleven seasons and he is closing in on five hundred appearnces for the club in all competitions, scoring fifty-seven goals.
Ramos would be seen as the ideal replacement for either Branislav Ivanovic or captain John Terry, both linked with Stamford Bridge exits this summer.
The proposed fee is far superior to what the Blues paid for fellow Spaniard Fernando Torres and is also higher than the…
We know it’s an unusual question but the answer to it is quite simple as we’ve all seen weirder things happen in life.
Still, in that beautiful world of school football – shooting once and scoring twice is considered a sort of a miracle!
Just have a look at this video below where a boy prepares to take an obviously decisive penalty shot when he drives the ball in the back of the net and sends his boot flying towards the basket.
It’s not difficult to guess what happened next.
Fantastic stuff.
Scoring twice with one shot.

Ivory Coast striker Gervinho says winning the African Cup of Nations is team-mate Didier Drogba s last goal in football.
The former Chelsea forward won the 2011/12 Champions League with his final kick of the ball for the west London club, before moving to China to join Nicolas Anelka at Shanghai Shenhua.
However, one trophy that still evades Drogba is the African showpiece, having reached the tournament final twice previously in 2006 and 2012.
And Gervinho says lifting the AFCON trophy is the only thing left for Drogba to accomplish before calling time on an illustrious career.
(AFCON is) the only thing left he wants to get for the Ivory Coast because he has brought us so much already, the Arsenal striker told Goal.com.
That s the one last ob…
