The Kansas City Chiefs got off to a slow start in the AFC championship game against the Buffalo Bills, trailing 9-0 at the end of the first quarter. From the second quarter on however, the team kicked its offense into high gear, as the Bills could do nothing to stop the Mahomes-Travis Kelce connection. The Pro Bowl tight end had an incredible game, hauling in 13 catches and scoring 2 touchdowns on the way to another Kansas City trip to the Super Bowl....

MUST-SEE: Super Bowl images | Video | Safety is Super Bowl first — Percy Harvin goes 30 yards on an end-around. Later in the drive, on third-and-9, Russell Wilson completes a first-down pass to Jermaine Kearse. On the same drive, Wilson plunges for the first down mark on a 5-yard scramble, but comes up less than a yard shot. Pete Carroll challenged the play, but it stood as-is. Steven Hauschka’s 31-yard field goal with 10:21 left in the first quarter gets things off to a start few would have anticipated....

Super Mario 3D World is built for co-op, with the game supporting up to four players. But while the vast majority of Super Mario 3D World can be played in co-op with friends, the original game had Captain Toad bonus levels that were restricted to one player. The Super Mario 3D World Switch re-release is changing that, allowing up to four players to participate in the Captain Toad bonus levels this time around....

Classic video games show up on eBay all the time, and sometimes those listings can be incredibly cool, like this poster for the Super Mario Bros. movie which was signed by two of the games creators, Shigeru Myamoto and Takashi Tezuka. But sometimes these auctions are so high profile, they are held through the international auction house known as Heritage Auctions, like the one-of-a-kind Nintendo PlayStation prototype.

Throughout the development cycle, the sound of Galaxy 2 changed drastically. Originally, Yokota had composed over 25 songs using Latin instruments like steelpans, bongo drums and congas, but it was scrapped by lead composer Koji Kondo (who scored Zelda). Yokota then produced two more scores; the first was very pop-oriented, and the second, which was the final, was completely symphony orchestrated and overlaid with the synth sounds that make it “sound like space,” according to Yokota....

To see just how impressive the game is on Switch, the tech gurus at Digital Foundry decided to put the E3 2017 footage to the test, and came away with some surprising results. The biggest finding from the team is that Super Mario Odyssey runs at a solid 60 frames per second. This number never wavers within the Frozen Desert environment of the Sand Kingdom, and only dips slightly when in the bustling streets of New Donk City....

Live-action, this new trailer features Super Mario Run players from all over the world as they run, jump, skate and somersault to go and meet Mario in New York City’s Times Square. While obviously very over the top (the game doesn’t include skateboards, for example, and players are unlikely to have much success if they play the game while running alongside giraffes), it certainly captures the general spirit of Super Mario Run’s gameplay....

As Min Min was already in the game as one of the collectible Spirits, her being made playable proves that there is nothing stopping other Spirit characters from being promoted to a fully realized character. And with there being nearly 1500 Spirits at the time of writing, there are so many characters now that we could potentially see be announced in the future.

RELATED: Where To Find Silver Ore In Subnautica Updated November 8th by Russ Boswell: Subnautica Below Zero has been gripping fans of the series for a while now but there are still new players that are flocking to the original release before starting the latest journey. The original Subnautica still holds up extremely well, showcasing its stance as one of the greatest Indie Games ever created.

Waiting for McMillan to publish another book, readers pleaded with booksellers for anything similar. “I’d say, ‘Read Bebe Moore Campbell’,” says Clara Villarosa, owner of Denver’s Hue-Man Experience bookstore. “They’d come back wanting more. I’d say, ‘Read Tina McElroy Ansa, read Connie Briscoe’.” All these writers began publishing after McMillan, and like her they steer clear of writing about racial problems, concentrating instead on the problems of contemporary African-American women....

Nokia has got hands on an European Union grant of $1.35 billion to look into the material up close. Henry Tirri, CTO, Nokia said, “”Nokia is proud to be involved with this project, and we have deep roots in the field — we first started working with graphene already in 2006…..Since then, we have come to identify multiple areas where this material can be applied in modern computing environments. We’ve done some very promising work so far, but I believe the greatest innovations have yet to be discovered....

With the term now ended and the summer transfer window open, many clubs have already started working to upgrade their respective squads in preparation ahead of the new campaign. In fact, not even the World Cup was able to limit clubs from participating in transfer negotiations. Plenty of announcements, speculations and transfer rumours up in the air too. As we know, the transfer window is packed full of drama and a lot has already happened....

Ziggler’s most recent showing on WWE TV saw him mention Goldberg’s recent appearance at Super ShowDown where he called it “embarrassing” a sentiment that he also used to describe Shawn Michaels comeback match at Crown Jewel last year. The segment on Miz TV ended with Michaels receiving a superkick from the showoff after Miz and Ziggler looked as though they were about to face off, which has now led to speculation that Shawn Michaels could be about to come out of retirement once again to face the former World Champion....

In typical WWE form, the event is shrouded in mystery, not just when it comes to card order, but in terms of personnel and how many matches we could actually see with a non-match “segment” already announced for the event. This year’s event could be one of the biggest of all time with both Ronda Rousey and Brock Lesnar confirmed - and we’re looking like a six-hour special with any of around four matches that could go on last....

CHASKA, Minnesota (Reuters) - The Ryder Cup’s climactic Sunday singles got off to a roaring start at Hazeltine National, but not without an appeal to fans jammed around the first tee to respect all players during the final session. The public address announcement to the raucous, but good-natured, crowd at the first tee came after a statement issued on Sunday by the PGA of America. “Rooted in the ideals of sportsmanship and international goodwill, the Ryder Cup is about having a spirited passion for not only the victory, but for the game of golf,” it read....

Lee bested Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade by just 0.135 points in the final standings and had two other gymnasts — Angelina Melnikova and Vladislava Urazova of the Russian Olympic Committee — within 0.5 points. It took strong efforts on the beam and floor in the final two rotations to earn the win, but ultimately, the Hmong-American from Minnesota sealed the deal. That wasn’t the only history that Lee made. She was also able to keep an American gymnasts streak that is nearly as old as her intact....

Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way in his team’s 105-98 win in Game 6 over the Suns on Tuesday night, totaling 50 points, 14 rebounds and five blocks. Antetokounmpo earned the NBA Finals MVP award by a unanimous 11-0 vote, making him just the second player to be named NBA MVP multiple times, Defensive Player of the Year and Finals MVP. Khris Middleton (17 points, five assists, five rebounds, four steals) made clutch plays down the stretch, and Jrue Holiday (12 points, 11 assists, nine rebounds, four steals) once again proved to be a difference-maker on both ends of the floor....

“The Greek Freak” led Milwaukee to a dominant 120-100 victory over Phoenix on Sunday night, posting 41 points, 13 rebounds and six assists in Game 3. Antetokounmpo became just the second player in NBA Finals history to total 40-plus points and 10-plus rebounds in consecutive games (Shaquille O’Neal, 2000). He also got much more help this time around, as Jrue Holiday (21 points, nine assists, five rebounds) and Khris Middleton (18 points, seven rebounds, six assists) bounced back after miserable showings in Game 2....

Ambience: Tucked on three and a half wooded acres on a cul-de-sac just off the Sunset Strip, the property is unusually calm and lush for such a hopping part of town. The makeover maintained the hotel’s signature midcentury-modern look, yet added a healthy dose of 21st-century luxury amenities. Villas, which begin at $500 a night, come with 24-hour butler service. Guests have free use of a Gibson guitar. The two-story, two-bedroom Presidential Villa, for $7,000 a night, includes a screening room and a Bentley....
