This year's Mario and Sonic Olympics

This year's Paris Olympics made history - for the first time in 16 years, no new version of the "Mario & Sonic Olympic Games" series of games was launched. On July 30, foreign media Eurogamer learned from a senior person that the reason was that the International Olympic Committee wanted to make more money through NFT, e-sports and new partners.

The senior figure said whether new versions of the Mario & Sonic Olympic Games series would be released was up to the International Olympic Committee, which chose not to renew its licensing agreement with Nintendo and Sega and allowed it to lapse in 2020.

“The IOC wants to look at other new partners, NFTs and e-sports,” the person said. “Basically, the IOC wants to make more money.”


New trailer for GTA6 hints

It has been six months since Rockstar released the first trailer for GTA 6. Recently, GTA Online released its latest trailer, and careful players found that the license plate of one of the electric cars seemed to hint at the release date of the second trailer for GTA 6.

A post on Reddit claims that a new "Pegassi Pizza Boy" electric car will be added to GTAOL's multiplayer as part of a community challenge. In the short trailer, we can see a San Andreas-style license plate on the back of the vehicle. The license plate spells out the word "Pizza", but replaces the "a" with the number "4". The sticker in the upper left corner also indicates that the month is October.

Fans speculate that this means Rockstar will release a new trailer for GTA 6 on October 4, 2024. However, some players pointed out that a license plate with "October" like this has already appeared on the electric car in Three Men and One Dog 5, and they don't know why everyone is making a fuss.

Introduction to EAFC25's "Rush" mode

EA has released a new in-depth trailer for its football game EA Sports FC 25. The new instalment introduces the brand new game mode "Rush" in this year's game.

"Rush" is a 5v5 mode played on a smaller field. This mode will replace the "Volta" mode in the previous series of games and expand on it. This mode will be available in many other gameplay modes, including "Ultimate Team", Club Mode, Manager Career Mode and Standard Kick-off Mode. Each mode is slightly different, but the overall gameplay is the same. The "Rush" playing field is 41.5% of the area of ​​a traditional 11v11 football field, which is 53.7 x 46.6 meters. The official introduction says that it "maintains sufficient width to encourage lateral passes, helping to prevent the playing area from feeling too narrow." Because of the field changes, the offside rules have also been adjusted.

A match lasts 7 minutes, there is no half-time break, and the only timeout is when the ball goes out of bounds. If the game is tied after 7 minutes, there will be a 2 minute 20 second overtime for a goal. If the game is still tied after this, the winner will be decided by penalty kicks.
