Veteran Anthony agreed to a deal with the Rockets earlier this month after he received a buyout from the Atlanta Hawks. Anthony – a 10-time All-Star – was traded from the Oklahoma City Thunder to Atlanta in exchange for guard Dennis Schroder in late July. He hit just 40.2 per cent of his shots and averaged a career-low 16.2 points per game during his one season with Oklahoma City in 2017-18....
But none of her roles in movies have let Harley Quinn be the true star. Sure, she’s had amazing fight scenes and great quips of dialogue, but she’s never held the narrative on her own. After years of being a fan-favorite and her supporting role in James Gunn’s upcoming The Suicide Squad, it may finally be Harley’s time to shine on the screen by herself.

Sixteen million tons of sodium chloride was dumped on U.S. roads in 2001. And while all that salt helps keep our roads safe, the salty runoff does have harmful environmental consequences. It stays in water ecosystems for years, possibly drying or killing plants and hurting fish if the concentrations get too high. Other salt dangers are pretty minimal: car manufacturers now dip metal in a zinc sealant to combat salt corrosion and groundwater contamination is rare thanks to better salt-storage and drainage systems....

The Oilers will at least explore moving their skilled, physical, productive, 23-year-old, cost-controlled winger, according to TSN’s Darren Dreger. “I think everyone is going to be on watch, for sure,” Hall told the Edmonton Sun on Monday. “There’s always going to be rumors, especially when the team is not doing well. I just have to worry about being the best team player I can be, bringing the most to the team....
Once again, it comes down to one intrepid Halo 5: Guardians user. The gamer in question, who goes by the online moniker of JoeAct20, has used the game’s Forge mode to create something rather special - a dogfighting game mode. Those Halo 5 users who have perhaps given a jealous glance towards the airborne battles of the Battlefield series could now have something to fill the void. The game map, which is called WWF Fire in the Sky, supports 2v2, 4v4, 6v6, and 8v8 play....
The Halo 5 beta has been finished for some time, but it seems that the data files installed on players’ consoles are still being updated. The most investigative of that number have been able to access that information in the hopes of unearthing something interesting, which is how this leak came about. A top-class score has long been one of the defining elements of previous Halo games, continuing the tradition that was started by the series’ original composer Marty O’Donnell....
However, while Halo would usually be a “sure thing”, this year’s entry is surrounded by controversy. For one, 343 Industries has decided to incorporate microtransactions into the experience, something that is typically a red flag for many gamers. Furthermore, 343 made the extremely unpopular decision to remove split-screen from the game, which upset many Halo fans, as split-screen has been such a key feature for the franchise since its inception....
Film student Gareth Reeve shared the teaser for his Halo fan film, Long Way Home, on his personal YouTube channel before it spread across social media. Reeve says in the description the film follows an ODST trooper after a botched drop leaves them stranded and alone on Delta Halo. The trooper will traverse Delta Halo to regroup with their squad, but Covenant forces may not be as far away as the trooper thinks....

While the news was met with praise by the community, there have been a few bumps in the road. The game’s first Battle Pass which focuses on gear from Halo Reach has been met with criticisms by players who felt progression moves too slow. The studio is planning on adding and adjusting challenges to hopefully improve progression speed, though many fans want XP earned for badges earned as well. However, a new problem appears to be rising, one that other multiplayer-centric games have struggled with....
The new version of the old Halo map is one of the first to make headlines since the official launch of Halo Infinite’s long-awaited Forge Mode, which allows players to design and edit their own custom maps. The level editor famously leaked earlier this year, which led to some extremely early player-created maps and modes, such as an Infection game mode and even a Halo Infinite version of PT....
A full four weeks after its premiere, the Halo series is finally starting to take form, and its latest teaser trailer is definitely catered toward fans who were missing the games’ FPS action because a full-on Covenant fight is coming to Paramount Plus next week. The first couple of Halo episodes caught the ire of many gamers and failed to wow critics, as many found the massive differences between video game source material and the show to be a turnoff....
Halo Wars 2 aims to be an accessible RTS for those new to the genre, which has its pros and cons. On the plus side, Halo Wars 2’s relative simplicity compared to other games in the genre lends itself well to the controller setup, as players rarely have to worry about trying to micromanage individual units, and can often get by barking orders to large masses of troops. The downside to Halo Wars 2’s accessibility is that it means veterans of the genre may come away unimpressed by the general lack of strategic depth and complexity....
