After the Xbox Game Pass price hike, is it time to cancel and start buying games again?

After the Xbox Game Pass price hike, is it time to cancel and start buying games again?

by admin October 5, 2025


Hello and welcome to another entry in our “The Big Question” series, in which we present an argument to you, the Eurogamer community, for further interrogation. This week: After the Xbox Game Pass price hike, is it time to cancel and start buying games again?

What’s all this about? Well, if you didn’t see the news from earlier in the week, Xbox has increased the price of its Game Pass offerings. The top-tier, Game Pass Ultimate now costs a not-insignificant £22.99 a month or about £276 a year! I’ve already commented on how an eventual Game Pass demise might be bad for game discovery, for those who use the service that way, and today we’re asking if it’s time to wave bye bye to Game Pass and start buying games again. Of course, there might also be a middle ground, if anyone is able to see nuance in a topic (unlikely, this is the internet!).

Today, I’m confused as I struggle to weigh up the true value proposition of Game Pass.

No one can tell you what value is, but there’s no denying Game Pass Ultimate is now more expensive than the competition

£23 is a lot of money. Of course, this is somewhat relative, and you might argue that if you are someone with a £500 a month car lease, a £60 phone contract, and £40 a month sub to an artisanal cake delivery company, that actually it’s not much, really – but it is. In the world of entertainment subscriptions it’s a lot.

Netflix Premium, the most expensive tier offered by any streaming TV/Film streaming service, is £18.99 a month. Game Pass Ultimate is more expensive. PlayStation Plus Premium, the high-end option for PlayStation users, is £13.49 a month or £120 a year, which is a lot cheaper than Game Pass Ultimate. So, then you must look at the value, which is almost impossible to say anything definitive on as everyone is different – where I might see a smart addition to the service, others will see a way to charge more for something they don’t want.

For me, I do use the EA Play games as they get added to the catalogue, and I was subscribed to this separately before it was added to Game Pass Ultimate. I also will absolutely get my money’s worth from the Fortnite Crew perk that my son has been desperate for since Epic introduced it. Do I also want Day One Xbox published games? Yes, I do, and it’s probably my number one reason for preferring Game Pass to rival services. Better streaming quality for games playing via the Cloud? Maybe – the jury is still out on how good streaming has become.

Watch on YouTube

Is this enough to pay more than double the £11 for Game Pass Premium or eat the cost of a Burger King meal deal on top of the £13.49 for Sony’s best offering? Incidentally, GP Premium currently lists 373 games, PS Plus Premium (including classic games) is at about 550, and GP Ultimate offers 838. Quality counts for more, here, I’d argue, but there’s certainly some more value on display.

That’s a whole lot of talk without actually making any statements about my future with Game Pass. The recurring billing elephant in the room, and let’s lower our voices a little, is the fact that you don’t have to pay £22.99 a month for Game Pass Ultimate. Just yesterday I added a year to my membership for £135 via a proper UK games retailer that is widely used. No doubt this will increase somewhat in the near future, but I very much doubt I’ll ever pay the full price.

Do I think I’ll cancel Game Pass, then, and switch to buying games? It might shock you to hear it, but I already buy plenty of games. Not many Xbox games, but 10+ a year across Switch, PS5, and PC. I don’t think I’m going to cancel Game Pass and start buying Xbox games again as the service gives me and my family comparatively cheap access to a wide variety of games. It’s also just easy. The games in Game Pass are the games we have on Xbox – play all that take our fancy, and don’t worry about all the rest. I’ve always been quite tight (careful, is perhaps a better term) with money, and I’m not averse to making spreadsheets or performing some scrap paper maths, and £20 I can just file away – that’s my spending on Xbox, done, nice and neat.

-Tom O

The big question, then: After the Xbox Game Pass price hike, is it time to cancel and start buying games again?

12 Tips To Know Before You Start Playing

by admin October 1, 2025


I’ve played Final Fantasy Tactics twice in the past couple of months. The first runthrough was of the original on PlayStation. The second was the excellent Ivalice Chronicles remaster, out today. Despite having grinded through the classic strategy RPG back in the day, I still learned a thing or two from revisiting it again all these years later. Here’s a bunch of friendly reminders, PSAs, and helpful tips, whether you’re playing Final Fantasy Tactics for the first time or coming back to it after decades away.

Keep every character a Squire until they learn JP Up

Square Enix

Rule number one of Final Fantasy Tactics is “ABJPU”: always be JP-ing up. JP stands for Job Points and these are what you use to unlock skills across the game’s sprawling job system. As you rank up each job, you’ll collect more points per action you take, but the JP Up skill will double that, letting you progress your characters twice as fast. The skill is on the third page of the Squire skill list under the passive section. Hold off on swapping your fresh recruits to chemists, knights, or other starting classes until you have this one unlocked.

Unlock Focus if you really want to streamline grinding

Square Enix

Characters earn XP and Job Points for successful actions. This means doing damage, healing, or buffing/debuffing something. The fastest way to level up characters is to stock up on potions, leave one enemy in a battle alive, and have everyone keep taking turns while staying healed. Accumulate is a Squire skill that raises your attack. It never misses. And you use it on yourself so you don’t have to move or worry about being in range.

The quickest way to grind in Final Fantasy Tactics is to have everyone learn the skill (it costs 300 points) and stand around using it at the end of a random encounter. Because you can use it as a character’s second skill, it’s helpful no matter what job they are trying to level up, making it a sound strategy over the course of the entire game.

Always have a least one character with the Item skill equipped

Square Enix

The ability to use Phoenix Down items is one of the most useful skills in Final Fantasy Tactics. That’s because when characters die, they only have three turns before they turn into crystals. Once that happens, they’re dead for the whole game unless you reset. If Ramza dies this way, the game is over. Even the best-laid plans can go sideways, and there’s nothing worse than having a character die early on in a fight and realizing you have no way to bring them back. Make sure at least one character has the Item skill equipped and Phoenix Down unlocked (it’s only 90 JP points) no matter what job they are. I usually have at least two or three.

Job Point spillover is your friend

Square Enix

Final Fantasy Tactics is full of math that never gets overtly explained. One of the most important calculations is called JP spillover. Every time a character earns Job Points, the rest of your characters in battle get 20 percent of those points to that same job. Even if they don’t have the job unlocked yet, the points will still accrue in the background, showing up once it’s available.

This has two important uses. The first is you can have people double-up on jobs and unlock specific skills much faster. The other is that you can earn a small amount of points that let characters unlock one or two lower-level skills without them ever having actually spent time ranking up in that job. If you have a Chemist in your party earn 2,000 points, that will be enough for everyone else to learn Auto-Potion, one of the most useful counterattack skills in the game.

Drag battles out when you can so human enemies turn into crystals

Square Enix

When humans fall in battle, they can turn into treasure chests or crystals. The treasure chests aren’t that useful, but the crystals contain all of the Job skills those soldiers had when they died. This is a really efficient way to unlock skills without spending any points, especially for lower-level stuff on jobs that character isn’t currently using. For example, your Chemist, Knight, or Archer might grab a crystal from a White Mage and learn a bunch of useful secondary skills like Cure, Raise, and Protect without ever grinding as a White Mage. There’s just one caveat: they need to have the job unlocked to be able to earn the skills from it this way.

Stats grow differently depending on the job you have when you level up

Square Enix

Here’s some more arcane math the game doesn’t tell you about. Jobs have different base stats, so if you go from being a Knight to a Thief, even if you don’t change anything else, that character will have less health but be faster. Well, these stats also change in the background as you level up (with XP) in particular jobs. Players have spent decades trying to get the rough math right in charts like these, but there are some key things even casual players should be aware of.

  • Monks, Knights, and Lancers have the highest health growth multiplier.
  • Monks and Ninjas have the highest attack growth multiplier.
  • Ninjas, Thieves, and Monks have the highest Speed Multiplier.
  • Wizards and Time Mages have the highest magic attack growth multiplier.
  • Priests, Wizards, Time Mages, and Summoners have the highest magic point growth multiplier.

Mimes, the hardest job to unlock in the game, have the highest all around stat growth potential, while Bards have the worst for male characters and Chemists have the worst for Female characters.

Ramza kicks ass as a Monk

Square Enix

Thematically, it feels like the main character should be wearing armor and tanking hits out in front. It’s also bad if he dies, so survivability also seems like a priority. But Monks, even though they wear light armor and less of it, can be exceptionally strong, and Ramza, because of his underlying stats, is one of the strongest. In addition to hitting for lots of damage and maintaining good speed, he’ll also unlock all of the Martial Arts skills which include ranged attacks, health and MP healing, status ailment removal, and a revive. Best of all, these skills cost no MP and happen instantly.

Pay attention to Bravery and Faith

Square Enix

More numbers! Each character in Final Fantasy Tactics has a Zodiac sign and two numbers near their name. The first is Bravery and it measures their ability to deal and take physical damage. The second is Faith and it’s involved in calculating the effectiveness of magic spells, both used and received. A high Faith character, for example, will have a higher likelihood of spells working and dealing more damage, but will also be more susceptible to them in return. Take note of these stats in the Recruiter’s office when you’re looking for new party members and when you’re deciding on their job trajectories.

If someone’s pursuing magic, they’ll do best with a Faith stat over 60 (I like to aim for 70). Same for Bravery when it comes to physical fighters. Bravery also effects the likelihood of counterattacks activating. This is extra important for things like Auto-Potion. A low Bravery character won’t react to being hit with their counterattack skills as much.

You can out-level for story battles but not random encounters

Square Enix

If you’re stuck on a story battle like, say, the Dorter Slums or Lionel Castle Gate, you can keep grinding until your characters get powerful enough to overwhelm the enemy with sheer force. Random encounters, however, will always raise enemy levels to around where Ramza’s is, which is worth knowing before you try to go into a fight and grind with characters who are all learning new jobs they haven’t unlocked skills for yet.

Don’t rush into fights!

Square Enix

This is a lesson Final Fantasy Tactics tries to teach you itself in Ramza’s very first battle out of the academy when Delita warns him about taking things slow. Any time I have ever lost a battle, it is because I got way too aggressive way too early. This will leave your fastest, farthest-moving characters isolated and easy targets to be picked off while also spreading you out across the field too much.

If you’re facing mostly Archers and Knights, turtle up and take advantage of healing and support spells that hit multiple allies at once. If you’re facing enemy spell casters, separate your party just enough to not have multiple people targeted at once while still being close enough together to burst down one enemy at a time.

Always buy the best armor you can afford

Square Enix

Every couple of battles, new gear will become available at the Outfitter’s office. Armor doesn’t increase defense in Final Fantasy Tactics. Instead, it raises health and magic point totals. Lighter armor will be a more balanced mix, while heavy armor prioritizes HP. It’s okay to switch things up to suit your character’s skills. A Knight that also casts White Magic will want to wear mage robes instead of a full suit of armor to get more magic points.

In the old days, traveling back to town could mean getting stuck in a random encounter, but the remaster gives you the option to flee any battle on the map, so there’s no downside to constantly tracking back for supplies and better armor. Unless you’re playing on easy, Final Fantasy Tactics will require you to grind for cash and levels every so many story battles. Staying on top of the latest gear available will help even the odds.

Don’t under estimate the power of Move +1

Square Enix

One is the loneliest number. In a game full of big numbers, it can look especially unimpressive. But the maps in Final Fantasy Tactics aren’t very big, and being able to move one extra square in any direction can pay off in big ways. Combine an early pair of Battle Boots with the Squire’s +1 movement ability and all of a sudden you have a 50-percent move bonus. Especially for characters who aren’t ranged, this can be the difference between contributing something meaningful to the fight during their turn and just constantly getting outmaneuvered until they die.

BTC Treasury Model Faces Reality Check
GameFi Guides

Strive’s Semler Buy Likely to Start Next Wave of Digital Asset Treasuries M&A

by admin September 28, 2025



The world of Digital Asset Treasury (DATs) has entered a new era, after Strive (ASST) announced an all-stock deal to acquire Semler Scientific (SMLR) this week.

The deal marked the first merger of two publicly traded bitcoin treasuries, and according to a Wall Street banker familiar with the situation, this is just the start of a massive consolidation wave among the DATs.

The banker, who opted to remain anonymous, outlined three scenarios for how DATS may evolve.

Mergers to add more BTC

The first of the three paths is the DAT-to-DAT mergers.

Strive’s acquisition of Semler is the first clear example of unifying BTC holdings, boosting bitcoin per share, and establishing governance under one roof, the banker said.

When it closes, the deal will create a new company that will hold nearly 11,000 BTC after Strive’s simultaneous $675 million purchase of 5,885 coins.

It’s worth noting that Semler’s shares had been trading below the value of its bitcoin, effectively assigning negative value to its medical device business. For Strive, the acquisition consolidates balance sheets, adds BTC scale, and pushes forward a key company metric: Bitcoin per share.

“Strive’s merger announcement is accretive in bitcoin per share, meeting our short-term goal,” CEO Matt Cole wrote on X.

“We believe the combined power of the entities will give the combined company more ability to access the capital markets in a way that will drive increased bitcoin per share and accretion in a way neither could do on their own.”

With the bitcoin treasury market being saturated with many publicly traded companies, this strategy is likely to be one of the most efficient ways to grow for the DATs.

The cash-flow angle

The banker said the second path of evolution is acquiring cash-flowing businesses to offset dilution and fund ongoing BTC purchases.

Metaplanet, Japan’s largest bitcoin holder, has already said it will use its treasury to buy cash-generating businesses as part of its “phase two” strategy.

Metaplanet is also exploring the use of perpetual preferred stock, a financing strategy that Strategy (MSTR) has already employed, allowing it to buy bitcoin without diluting shareholders through at-the-market (ATM) common stock offerings.

No more SPACs

Third, is merging with legitimate businesses instead of using special-purpose acquisition companies (SPACs), according to the banker.

SPACs are shell firms designed to take companies public quickly, but the “de-SPAC” process can be messy, requiring shareholder votes, regulatory filings, and often suffering from investor redemptions. Making things more complex, to bridge funding gaps, many SPACs rely on PIPEs (private investments in public equity), which bring dilution, discounts and uncertainty.

For DATs, merging directly with a company that already has operations and governance avoids these pitfalls.

The evolution of DATs

The bottom line is that DATs are at a point where they need to evolve and get creative with their growth strategies.

In fact, other companies are already catching on to this trend. Recently, FRNT Financial (TSXV: FRNT), a digital asset investment bank, said it has entered into a consulting agreement with an undisclosed DAT with $100 million worth of digital assets in its balance sheet.

According to the deal terms, FRNT will help evaluate and structure lending opportunities for the company’s next growth phase.

The deals, such as the Strive-Semler merger, show digital asset treasury companies will need to scale through consolidation, buy profitable businesses, or align with established operators that bring legitimacy, ushering in the next phase of DATs’ evolution.

Crypto Market Prediction: Ethereum (ETH) Can Start $5,000 Path Here, XRP Welcomes $2.60, Bitcoin's (BTC) Bullish $108,000 Reversal

Crypto Market Prediction: Ethereum (ETH) Can Start $5,000 Path Here, XRP Welcomes $2.60, Bitcoin’s (BTC) Bullish $108,000 Reversal

by admin September 27, 2025


The market is approaching pivotal levels that should become a foundation for a longer-term reversal. For Ethereum, it will be the last chance for a recovery of the $5,000 price market, while XRP has welcomed the new low for itself.

Ethereum’s last opportunity

After falling below $4,000 and currently testing the $3,800 mark — which is precisely in line with the 100-day Exponential Moving Average — Ethereum has entered a critical phase. Before a more significant retracement occurs, this area is beginning to take shape as ETH’s final significant line of defense. After ETH failed to hold above the $4,600-$4,800 resistance zone, where a symmetrical triangle breakdown validated bearish momentum, it has been under constant sell pressure for the last two weeks.

ETH/USDT Chart by TradingView

  • Ethereum has dropped nearly 20% since its rejection at these highs, wiping out gains from early September and making buyers cautious. The $3,800 support — which is in line with the 100 EMA — is very important.
  • This moving average has historically served as ETH’s mid-trend support, frequently causing it to rise following early tests. Nevertheless, more significant corrections have also been brought on by recurrent breakdowns below this indicator.
  • Ethereum may continue to lose if bulls are unable to hold this level, possibly reaching the 200 EMA at $3,400 or even the $3,200 area, which is home to the next strong support cluster. Indicators of momentum validate the pressure.
  • The fact that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has fallen to about 32, just above oversold conditions, indicates that sellers are still in control and that buyers are reluctant to make a strong comeback.

The strength of the bearish move has also been reinforced by the elevated trading volume on the decline. In order to signal stabilization and a possible recovery toward $4,300+, ETH must first regain $3,950-$4,000. Failure to do so might indicate that the market has entered a corrective phase and that there is an increasing risk of downside. In short, Ethereum’s last opportunity to preserve a bullish structure is at $3,800. Before making an effort to recover, losing it would probably allow for a more severe pullback. 

XRP’s boiling point

The market structure of XRP has reached a critical point as the asset has dropped to the $2 price zone and lost one of its main support levels. Following the breakdown, the 200-day EMA at $2.60 serves as the final important safety net, essentially securing that price target as the market’s next stop. With lower highs pushing the price lower, XRP has been trading in a descending pattern for weeks.

The pivotal moment was reached when the 100-day EMA near $2.88 was not maintained, confirming the bearish momentum and giving bulls little opportunity to defend. The price quickly dropped as sellers took complete control after this support gave way. In a technical sense, $2.60 is very significant. 

As a long-term stabilizer, the 200 EMA has historically protected XRP from significant drops and laid the groundwork for recoveries. The asset might consolidate and possibly retest the $2.90-$3.00 resistance zone if there is a clean bounce here. But XRP cannot stay above $2.60; it could retrace further, perhaps, to $2.30 or lower, where the next historical demand clusters are located. The increasing pressure is reflected by momentum indicators. 

A brief rebound may occur even though sellers are in control, according to the RSI, which is circling 36 and verging on oversold territory. The move was supported by conviction rather than a shallow dip, as further evidenced by volume spikes during the breakdown. All things considered, XRP’s future is uncertain.

The asset runs the risk of continuing its downward trend unless buyers make a strong move at $2.60. The final significant buffer between the current consolidation phase and a possible transition into a more general bearish cycle, this level is more than just another line on the chart. In summary, $2.60 is now the only factor determining XRP’s future. 

Bitcoin’s direction

With the price testing around $108,000, Bitcoin is at a critical level that could determine the direction of the next trend. Bitcoin has experienced a significant retracement following weeks of volatile trading and unsuccessful breakouts above $118,000, returning the market to its most important support in months.

According to the daily chart, there is strong bearish momentum as Bitcoin breaks below short-term moving averages such as the 50-day EMA at $114,000 and the 100-day EMA at $111,800. But the $108,000 area — which is just above the 200 EMA support at $106,200 — is notable as a level with historical significance. This area is crucial for bulls to hold since it has served as a base for several reversals in previous cycles. There is immediate resistance at $111,800 (100 EMA) and $114,000-$115,000, which could be the first upside targets in a reversal rally if Bitcoin is able to defend $108,000. 

If this zone is broken, the bullish structure as a whole would remain intact and the path to $120,000 and possibly beyond would be reopened. The 200 EMA currently sits in the $102,000-$106,000 range, which would be the target of a deeper correction if Bitcoin were unable to hold above $108,000. A collapse of this kind might lead to wider market deterioration, and altcoins would probably follow suit.

Despite the emergence of cracks, momentum indicators indicate that sellers are still in control. There is a greater chance of a technical bounce because the RSI is close to oversold territory at about 35. Simultaneously, trading volumes have increased, suggesting that both bulls and bears are confident in this support test. 

To put it briefly, the $108,000 mark for Bitcoin is crucial. While a breakdown would indicate that the market is moving into a more profound correction phase a bounce here might lead to a pivotal reversal. Everyone’s attention is still focused on this crucial line in the sand for the time being.

Will Tessmann leapfrog McKennie, Musah to start World Cup for U.S.?

by admin September 25, 2025

    Close

      Jeff Carlisle covers MLS and the U.S. national team for ESPN FC.

The European club season has been in full swing for over a month now, giving those U.S. men’s national team players plying their trade overseas the chance to establish themselves. Some have gotten off to uneven starts, with the opening round of UEFA Champions League fixtures proving to be especially difficult. Others have hit the ground running. Those in MLS have been in rhythm for a while now.

Then there’s Christian Pulisic, who has been leading the U.S. charge in Europe for nine years now and already has five goals in all competitions this season. Fortunately for the USMNT, Pulisic is one of several players who have been hitting their stride in recent weeks.

Throughout the season, ESPN will be monitoring the progress of the U.S. player pool, delivering insights into those whose form or fitness has made them particularly intriguing. We call it the USMNT’s countdown to the World Cup.

ESPN will count down to June 11 every week so that way, when the U.S. team is announced for this highly anticipated World Cup on home soil, no names on that 26-man roster will come as a surprise.

Only 260 days to go.

Tessmann proving he deserves to start in midfield

Tessmann had already enjoyed a solid start to the season, but last weekend he kicked his campaign into overdrive, scoring the lone goal in Lyon’s 1-0 victory over Angers, a result that put the club in a tie atop the Ligue 1 table, behind AS Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain on goal differential. Not bad for a team that was threatened with relegation due to financial irregularities before the start of the season.

As for Tessmann, the question remains: Will these performances be enough to get him back in the U.S. squad? He hasn’t been called up since the Concacaf Nations League in March. To be clear, they should be, but the mind of U.S. manager Mauricio Pochettino works in mysterious ways. At minimum, Tessmann should be in contention to provide cover for Tyler Adams, or even crack the starting lineup.

USMNT could do with a dose of Tillman’s perseverance

Credit Tillman for showing a strong mentality, bouncing back from a dreadful match in midweek against F.C. København in the Champions League to deliver a man of the match performance against Borussia Mönchengladbach in which he scored his second league goal of the season. A tactical tweak from manager Kasper Hjulmand might have helped.

Against Copenhagen, Tillman was operating as one of the dual No. 10s and struggled mightily to get on the ball. Against Gladbach, he was deployed deeper in midfield and had a much stronger impact on the game, even beyond his 70th-minute goal. Hjulmand afterward continued to preach patience, as Tillman is one of many new arrivals to the squad, but the player’s ability to shake off a poor performance will serve him well for both club and country.

Christian Pulisic | Attacker | AC Milan

Italy can’t stop Pulisic

This was an impressive week for Pulisic, even by his lofty standards. After scoring two goals and helping set the table for a third in last weekend’s 3-0 win over Udinese, Pulisic maintained his fine form by scoring the final goal — on the half-volley, no less — in a 3-0 Coppa Italia win over Lecce.

There’s not much more to be said about Pulisic that hasn’t been already. He remains the USMNT’s most important attacking player, and he now holds the mark for most goals by an American in Europe’s top five leagues with 59. As long as he can stay healthy, he’s a lock to be in the U.S. lineup.

He’ll try to keep the momentum going in this weekend’s momentous clash with top-of-the table Napoli.

The in-form XI

When Pochettino switched to a three-man back line during the September international window, it was a move that didn’t appear to benefit Gladbach’s Joe Scally. The wing back position favors the mobility and attacking instincts demonstrated by the likes of Sergiño Dest and Alex Freeman over the defending of Scally, but then Gladbach interim manager Eugen Polanski trotted out a 3-4-3 with Scally as the right wing back, and the American delivered an impressive performance.

Scally showed an ability to get forward that was unexpected given that he recorded no goals and no assists this past season — his xG of 0.26 is already on its way to eclipsing last year’s 0.38. Granted, who knows what formation the permanent Gladbach coach will prefer once he’s hired, but the performance should help keep Scally in the lineup.

Given his performance last weekend, why isn’t he in this week’s in-form XI? It’s a fair question, especially when you consider Dest conceded a penalty that was converted in PSV Eindhoven’s 2-2 draw with Ajax. Combined with some defensively shaky moments during the September international window, it’s worth weighing whether Dest is enough of a defensive liability that he loses his spot in the starting lineup. That said, Dest’s value in attack is still high enough given his ability to deliver the unexpected, though Scally has given Pochettino something to think about in terms of who his starting wing backs should be.

Meanwhile, the relative stock of the U.S. corps of forwards continues to go through some wild swings in form. Folarin Balogun looked to have gained some separation from the chasing pack after a great performance against Japan, but that was before his tepid effort in a 4-1 Champions League defeat to Club Brugge landed him on the bench for last week’s league encounter against Metz. Even worse for Balogun, his replacement, Mika Biereth, scored the opener in a 5-2 win, while Ansu Fati scored two off the bench and George Ilenikhena also got on the score sheet.

The silver lining for Balogun is that no other U.S. center forwards scored last weekend, although Ricardo Pepi’s selfless run to the near post allowed Ismael Saibari to score PSV’s first, so he’ll remain the starter in this week’s lineup. Also, Balogun’s skill set is unique within the USMNT player pool, given his ability to make runs in behind the opposition defense, and this should mean his spot in the U.S. squad is still secure. He’ll need to work his way back into the Monaco lineup, though, and this week’s match at Lorient will reveal the extent to which his spot in the club hierarchy has fallen.

Big Board 2.0 update

ESPN’s USMNT Big Board 2.0 went live earlier this month, and each Big Board will provide the foundation for weekly player updates. Below are the minutes and player ratings for each of those 37 players.

PS5 State Of Play September 2025: Start Time, How To Watch, And What To Expect From Today’s Event

by admin September 24, 2025



It’s a big week for gaming with events like the Tokyo Game Show, but right now, it’s time for Sony to show what it has been cooking up with a new State of Play broadcast today, September 24. We’ve rounded up all the details for the livestream, popped in a few links for where to watch, when it starts, and what you can expect from it. On September 25, you can also tune in for an Xbox livestream, which will be held at a very early time.

How to watch the State of Play

State of Play will be streamed live on Sony’s YouTube and Twitch channels and will be broadcast in English.

State of Play start time

The State of Play broadcast begins today, September 24, at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET and will run for approximately 35 minutes.

  • 2 PM PT
  • 5 PM ET
  • 11 PM CEST
  • 6 AM JST (September 25)

What to expect

Sony says that the event will feature reveals and news from developers around the world on third-party games and indie titles. On the first-party side, Sony has confirmed that there’ll be an extended look at Housemarque’s next game, Saros, with five minutes of PS5-captured gameplay. You can also look forward to updates from some of the teams at PlayStation Studios, but beyond that, Sony is keeping quiet on the specific details here.

Ghost of Yotei launches on October 2, so we’re expecting to see a quick trailer for the game, and this would be a great time to reveal a few new characters for the upcoming superhero brawler from Arc System Works, Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls. Fans are also eager to see a fresh look at Insomniac’s Wolverine game, which was first announced way back in 2021. It has also been a year since Uncharted developer Naughty Dog revealed Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, so an update on that game wouldn’t be unwelcome.

If we’re digging into rumored reveals, then there might be some pleasant surprises today. Speculation about a new God of War game that will be smaller in scope and will see players return to ancient Greece has been doing the rounds for a while now, and everything from a Metal Gear Solid 4 port to a remake of Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag have also been heavily rumored for a while now. The only way to find out will be to tune in today to see what the future of PlayStation looks like.

Auk Mini Review: Start Your Own Seeds, Scandinavian Style
Product Reviews

Auk Mini Review: Start Your Own Seeds, Scandinavian Style

by admin September 18, 2025


In my ongoing quest to put as many of the popular indoor hydroponic garden systems as I can through their paces, I have noticed something irritating.

Many, if not most, of these systems require—or at minimum, strongly suggest—ordering proprietary seed pods, inserts, or capsules from the company itself. You can jury-rig, of course, but usually at your own hassle and failure risk. If you order through the companies, not only can the excess packaging be wasteful, the costs add up quickly (competitor Click & Grow’s pods, for example, are almost $5 each).

When I saw the Auk (pronounced “owk”) and its four little pots of coconut coir advertised on my social media feed, I was immediately intrigued. Finally, an open-system indoor garden where you can grow your own seeds! There’s got to be a catch, I thought. But there isn’t. After testing it for six weeks, I can report that the Auk fully delivers on its promise of “herbs made simple.”

Just the Basics

Although its ads make it seem like a newcomer, Norway-based Auk has actually been in business since 2021. It’s perhaps best known for its original Auk 1 hydroponic garden, which features a more complicated water reservoir, nutrient mixer, and lighting setup that garnered mixed reviews online for inconsistent light cycles and watering. The herb-focused Auk Mini, on the other hand, is not that.

Released in May 2024, it features four oval pots with slotted bottoms that sit atop a 3-liter reservoir. This 17.5 x 8.5 x 14.5-inch base is flanked by two wooden poles, which hold a tension-set full-spectrum light bar. A little wheel on the side indicates the water level, with a red dot indicating when it’s empty.

Simply fill the pots with the included coconut coir (fibers from the exterior of coconuts), plant your seeds, add squirts of the included nutrients (the bottles say how many on the side), plug in the light bar, and position it 4 inches above the pots to start. That’s it. There’s no pump, and the light bar will stay on for 17.5 hours—hold the button underneath the light for five seconds to set the “sunrise” time. Finish options include oak or walnut, with white or black pots.

Crypto Market Prediction: Shiba Inu to Add Zero or Hit $0.00002? Is Bitcoin in Stealth Rally to $120,000? Ethereum Can Start $5,000 Rally Here

Crypto Market Prediction: Shiba Inu to Add Zero or Hit $0.00002? Is Bitcoin in Stealth Rally to $120,000? Ethereum Can Start $5,000 Rally Here

by admin September 18, 2025


The market might be ready for a long-awaited recovery, with numerous hidden signals on assets like Bitcoin, Shiba Inu and Ethereum. These assets are showing a good bullish dynamic that might turn into longer-term growth.

Shiba Inu has to choose

As Shiba Inu (SHIB) maintains its narrowing consolidation pattern, we are stuck with two scenarios here: either an anticipated push to $0.00002 or a painful return to the $0.00001 zone, which would essentially add another zero. 

  • Currently SHIB is located precisely inside an EMA cluster made up of the 50-100 and 200-day moving averages hovering around $0.0000129. For bulls and bears, this range has evolved into the ultimate battlefield. All attempts to break higher have been capped close to $0.0000140, while $0.0000124 has served as support for the downside. 

    SHIB/USDT Chart by TradingView 

  • A volatility breakout is anticipated, according to the tightening triangle structure, but it is unclear which way it will go. With $0.00002 in sight, the situation is bullish. Should SHIB successfully break above the resistance level of $0.000014 and clear the EMA cluster, the technical path would open toward $0.0000160 and possibly $0.0000200.

  • This size of a breakout would reestablish bullish sentiment, perhaps due to whale accumulation or resurgent retail demand. This scenario is unavoidable given SHIB’s history of sharp increases once momentum picks up. Including a zero is the bearish scenario. Conversely, if the $0.0000124-$0.0000120 support zone is not held, momentum would be sharply bearish.

If SHIB experiences a breakdown, it could plunge back to $0.0000100, wiping out months of attempts at recovery and adding another zero to its valuation. In addition to undermining investor confidence, this action runs the risk of locking SHIB into a protracted consolidation phase.

Bitcoin’s hidden growth

The world’s largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, may be getting ready for a surprise rally that could push it toward the $120,000 mark sooner than most people think. The price action of late has been surprisingly quiet. As of press time, Bitcoin is trading at about $116,300, with few notable breakouts. On the other hand, the market’s structure is gradually becoming better.

With strong long-term support at the 200-day EMA ($105,500), the price is consolidating above the 50-day EMA ($114,300) and 100-day EMA ($113,800). There is less chance of severe downside shocks thanks to this layered support zone, which indicates that a strong foundation is developing.

BTC/USDT Chart by TradingView

Most significantly, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains neutral at 59, allowing for a prolonged rally without entering overbought territory. In the past, these configurations frequently come before significant upward movements, as buyers gradually accumulate, raising prices without drawing much attention until a breakout has already occurred.

The area between $118,000 and $120,000 is the main resistance to keep an eye on. A clear close above $118,000 would probably validate Bitcoin’s covert increase and possibly start a surge of inflows driven by momentum. Following the clearance of $120,000, the next targets might move toward $125,000-$130,000, which are levels consistent with earlier bullish extensions.

Is Ethereum ready?

After a robust summer rally, Ethereum (ETH) has been consolidating, and despite slight setbacks, the framework for a further leg higher is getting stronger. ETH is showing resilience in the face of wider market volatility, as it is currently trading close to $4,490, comfortably above its critical moving averages.

The ability of Ethereum to maintain above the 50-day EMA ($4,285) and 100-day EMA ($4,218) is the most crucial technical consideration in this case. Throughout the recent uptrend, these levels have served as dynamic support, mitigating each correction. This cluster will continue to support the bullish bias as long as ETH stays above it.

There is also potential for more upside, according to momentum indicators. Currently, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is firmly in neutral territory at 53. This indicates that Ethereum is not overbought and could easily withstand a further surge in buying pressure before going through its limit. The slight tapering of trading volume in recent sessions is consistent with the usual consolidation stages preceding a breakout move.

The psychological $5,000 mark is ETH’s immediate upward target. If ETH continues to rise through the current resistance level between $4,600 and $4,700, momentum-driven buying is likely to occur, propelling the cryptocurrency closer to that mark. The current rally may continue toward $5,200-$5,400, which corresponds to Fibonacci extensions from the prior surge, if the larger cryptocurrency market stays stable and liquidity inflows continue to be supportive.

On the downside, a retest of the 200-day EMA close to $3,760 might occur if the $4,200 support zone is not held. Nonetheless, the current market structure encourages continuation rather than collapse.

UK and US Move to Align Crypto Regulations as the Best Crypto Presales Heat Up

Best Crypto Presales to Buy as UK and US Start Crypto Cooperation

by admin September 17, 2025


Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure

With Donald Trump in the United Kingdom for a state visit, the UK and the US are poised to forge closer regulatory ties on key issues.

One of those issues is crypto regulations – in particular, stablecoins. The move could reshape the landscape for stablecoins, investor protection, and cross-border financial innovation. Along the way, it could also send a handful of the best crypto to buy into the stratosphere as markets heat up.

A Shift Towards Cooperation

High-level talks between UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent formed the starting point for the whole discussion. Trump himself may get involved later in the week.

Major crypto firms like Coinbase, Circle, and Ripple, as well as leading banks, were part of discussions aimed at synchronizing oversight of the digital-asset sector.

What’s driving the sudden shared interest?

In a word, stablecoins.

Stablecoins, pegged to traditional currencies, have emerged as popular payment instruments and stores of value. For now, they currently exist under varying regulatory regimes in different countries– and that’s why the UK is keen to align more closely with US regulation.

What Alignment Might Look Like

Several areas are expected to be part of the UK-US regulatory alignment:

  • Stablecoin regulation: Clearer rules governing issuance, backing, and oversight.
  • Combatting financial crime: Unifying anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) standards.
  • Market conduct: Strengthened supervision of digital asset markets to ensure fair practices and consumer protection.
  • Joint innovation sandboxes: Regulatory test environments where firms can trial blockchain-based solutions or new financial products in both jurisdictions under regulatory oversight.

Why It Matters

The UK has publicly acknowledged a risk of being left behind in global crypto regulatory advance. Former Conservative Chancellor George Osborne warned in an op-ed that on stablecoins and broader digital asset policy, other countries are passing the UK by.

And there’s a strong desire on the part of both countries to use regulatory clarity to attract business investment, maintain competitiveness, and support innovation in the financial sector.

Additionally, the timing of these moves is significant. Talks coincide with heightened diplomatic and trade conversations, including the US-UK relationship under President Trump’s pro-crypto bent and the UK’s efforts to position itself as a global hub in digital finance.

With alignment on the horizon, the crypto presales could be among the best projects to buy.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – Fastest and Cheapest Bitcoin Layer 2 Enables Everyday Bitcoin Transactions

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) aims to solve a couple of long-standing Bitcoin problems. Sure, Bitcoin has a $2.2T market cap, and may not look like it has many weaknesses at all. But the Bitcoin Layer 1 blockchain emphasizes simple smart contracts for security and reliability, rather than speed or scalability.

To achieve the latter, Bitcoin Hyper integrates the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) through the use of a Canonical Bridge. Deposit $BTC on the canonical bridge, mint wrapped $BTC on the Hyper Layer 2.

On Hyper, investors can leverage the SVM’s speed to transact $BTC at Solana’s speeds – several thousand transactions per second. That utility explains why our $HYPER price prediction shows the token price reaching $0.32 by the end of this year.

Learn more about what Bitcoin Hyper is and jump into the presale at the official website.

PepeNode ($PEPENODE) – Mine-to-Earn Gamifies Meme Coin Yield

What if you could meme and game at the same time?

PepeNode ($PEPENODE) makes it possible with an innovative Mine-to-Earn mechanic. Buy $PEPENODE and use the token to upgrade your virtual mining server room. The more nodes you purchase and the more you upgrade your rig, the more $PEPENODE you’ll earn.

You can earn rewards in other tokens, including $PEPE, $FARTCOIN, and more. There’s also a leaderboard where miners can see whose rig is performing the best.

The $PEPENODE presale has passed $1.2M, with tokens priced at $0.0010617 — but our price prediction sees the token climbing to $0.0023 by the end of the year.

Check out the presale page for the latest info.

BlockDag ($BDAG) – Massive Crypto Presale Offers Endless Blockchain Interconnectivity

BlockDag has an incredibly ambitious vision – a proof-of-work consensus with Directed Acrylic Graph (DAG) technology.

If BlockDag finds the success it hopes for, it could be the foundation for an entirely new standard for blockchain networks. BlockDag wants to build a more transparent blockchain with full DeFi capabilities, including:

  • Stablecoins
  • Staking
  • Lending & borrowing
  • Swaps
  • Cross-chain bridging

The solidity and reliability of a proof-of-work blockchain would back all of those features. And with over $400M raised in a massive presale so far, BlockDag is well-positioned to succeed.

While US-UK regulatory alignment promises benefits, there are obstacles to overcome. Regulatory systems differ in structure, legal tradition, and risk tolerance. The UK and US may diverge in consumer protection standards, enforcement priorities, or industry oversight.

Ensuring alignment without stifling innovation will be a delicate balancing act.

But if negotiators can pull it off, look for hot crypto presales like $HYPER, $PEPENODE, and $BDAG to explode into the newly defined space.

Ned Fulmer & wife Ariel start podcast 3 years after cheating scandal shattered Try Guys

by admin September 17, 2025



Former Try Guys member Ned Fulmer is back in the spotlight three years after his cheating scandal went viral on social media and imploded the YouTube group.

Ned Fulmer was one of the original members of the Try Guys, a group of four YouTubers who shared their adventures trying new things like ‘baking a pie without a recipe’ or eating 400 dumplings for a mukbang.

Fulmer was constantly talking about his marriage to his wife, Ariel, earning him the title of ‘wife guy’ — but this very designation would come back to haunt him when he was exposed for cheating with a company employee in September 2022.

Article continues after ad

As a result, Fulmer was ousted from the group, the remaining members of which posted a YouTube video denouncing his behavior and distancing themselves from him.

Fulmer spoke out on the situation in a statement on social media, where he apologized to Ariel and said “the only thing that matters right now is my marriage and my children, and that’s where I’m going to focus my attention.”

Article continues after ad

Just a week shy of exactly three years after the cheating bombshell, Fulmer has officially returned to the internet, opening up about his silence in an interview with People on September 16, 2025.

Ned Fulmer starts new podcast with wife Ariel after Try Guys fallout

In the interview, Fulmer revealed that he and Ariel are still together, although he admitted that things were rocky in the direct aftermath of his affair being brought to the limelight.

“For a long time, I wanted nothing to do with social media or the internet,” he told the outlet, explaining his absence. “I didn’t think it was particularly beneficial to my mental health.”

He and Ariel attended couples counseling to work through his infidelity, saying there were “many points” where he feared their relationship wouldn’t survive the scandal. However, he says their marriage is now “certainly stronger than it was before.”

Article continues after ad

“We have a much clearer sense of boundaries — understanding and respecting each other’s boundaries — as well as integrity and being direct with each other, even when it might be unpleasant,” he explained.

Article continues after ad

With his role in the Try Guys officially out of the question, Fulmer is taking what he’s learned from his transgression and turning it into a new podcast that he’s titled ‘Rock Bottom.’

The theme of the show is to interview people at the lowest point of their lives, whether that be working through an addiction, struggling with life after prison, and even being on the receiving end of the internet’s ire.

Article continues after ad

“It’s made me a lot more interested in other people’s challenging times,” he told People. “When someone does something that they’re really ashamed about or that is deeply traumatizing, life goes on. So, what happens next?”

Rock Bottom debuts on Wednesday, September 17, with Ariel co-hosting. This will be Fulmer’s official return to making content since his hiatus from the internet in 2022.

Fulmer’s departure from the Try Guys rocked the internet and ended up costing the group “millions” in lost sponsorships. Eventually, Eugene Lee Yang also exited the org to pursue other projects. Currently, the Try Guys is comprised of Keith Habersberger and Zach Kornfeld, who have maintained the channel as a duo in the years since then.
