While there’s enough value to recommend its Nintendo Switch port, its liable to frustrate those who remain unfazed by its charms....

Authenticator app creator Kevin Archer posted a Twitter thread about the issue. He writes: In a few sentences, even the more naive Apple customers know that even if Archer wasn’t dealing with a copycat, this app would already be infringing a few App Store policies. Scammers are on the App Store again with a new developer account, but the same app and of course weekly subscription. They’re using the same strategy, requesting a review in the onboarding stage to get more ratings, the same 5 screens [as his app], and a weekly subscription at the end....

Fans have every reason to be excited about seeing star Chadwick Boseman and his Black Panther co-stars reprise their roles in such an epic adventure. But with Infinity War bringing back Thor (who was absent during T’Challa’s first movie appearance in Captain America: Civil War) and the Guardians of the Galaxy (whose movies lean heavily on comedy), Infinity War could risk undermining Black Panther by playing Wakanda for laughs. This Page: Marvel’s Comedy Comfort Zone The Marvel Comedy Track Record For the most part, the light-hearted style of the MCU has delighted audiences and allowed Marvel Studios to transform more obscure titles like Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant-Man into crowd-pleasers....

Apple last year requested a delay in the App Store changes that were required as a result of the Epic Games vs. Apple ruling. We now have access to Apple’s filings with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on the case. Back in September 2021, Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers issued a permanent injunction saying that Apple can no longer forbid developers from directing users to third-party payment options. The injunction was set to take effect in 90 days, but Apple wasn’t satisfied with the decision....

Apple’s secrecy when it comes to product development is one of the defining characteristics of the company. But a former Apple HR exec said that it came at a high price: engineer burnout and frustration. Ultimately, he argues, it stifled innovation within the company. Chris Deaver, who was a senior HR business partner at Apple from 2015 to 2019, says that the company tried an experiment with the development of AirPods Pro, to see whether it was possible to create a more collaborative working environment while still ensuring secrecy …...

Aquaman was a much bigger box office hit than anybody anticipated. At this point last year, the DC Extended Universe was in bad shape, left reeling from the critical and commercial disaster that was Justice League. The long-awaited team-up film was marred by a rocky production (which has been extensively covered already) and ended its theatrical run as the lowest-grossing entry in the young franchise. Whatever goodwill was generated by Wonder Woman was essentially thrown away, leaving many people to contemplate what the future would hold for DC....

It’s even been unclear if Batwoman will pop up on one of the handful of Arrowverse series before the crossover and if so, which one....

Kevin Feige has confirmed that the Avengers: Endgame title was in place before filming began. Last year’s Avengers: Infinity War marked the culmination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first decade on the big screen, finally introducing Thanos as an arch-villain after his post-credits cameo in the first Avengers movie. However, many fans left theaters in a state of shock after the conclusion to Infinity War saw Thanos successfully wipe out half of the universe, including heroes such as Spider-Man, Black Panther and Doctor Strange, and in the wake of such a monumental cliffhanger, anticipation for the 2019 follow-up sky-rocketed....

The final countdown has begun. Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice is less than one month from hitting theaters (at the time of this writing). For that reason, many fans have begun to tune-out Batman V Superman news and reveals - in the hopes of preserving as many surprises as possible.
