Call of Duty: WW2 Adds Leprechaun Hunt Mode for St. Patrick’s Day
Activision is celebrating all things green and Irish this St. Paddy's day with the seasonal community event, Operation: Shamrock and Awe - which includes a zombie leprechaun lurking on the multiplayer maps.

Theoretical Physicist Stephen Hawking Dies at 76
World-renowned physicist, Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76. It was confirmed that he passed away early on Wednesday morning at his home in Cambridge.
"We are deeply saddened that our beloved father passed away today," his three children, Lucy, Robert and Tim, told the BBC in a statement. "He was a great scientist and an extraordinary man whose work and legacy will live on for many years."
Most people will be familiar with Hawking's seminal book, A Brief History of Time, even if they haven't necessarily read it from cover to cover.

Fantastic Beasts: Crimes of Grindelwald Full Trailer Breakdown
The first trailer for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald has arrived, and it’s an exciting look at the next installment of the Wizarding World franchise.
There are some obvious highlights -- most notably getting our first good look at Jude Law’s Albus Dumbledore in action -- but also a lot of hidden details you might have missed. Watch the video above for our full breakdown, or click through the slideshow below for all the Easter eggs, secrets and plot details we found:
That’s everything we spotted in the Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald trailer. Did we miss anything? Let us know in the comments!
The synopsis for The Crimes of Grindelwald reads: At the end of the first film, the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp) was captured by MACUSA (Magical Congress of the United States of America), with the help of Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne). But, making good on his threat, Grindelwald escaped custody and has set about gathering followers, most unsuspecting of his true agenda: to raise pure-blood wizards up to rule over all non-magical beings. In an effort to thwart Grindelwald’s plans, Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) enlists his former student Newt Scamander, who agrees to help, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead. Lines are drawn as love and loyalty are tested, even among the truest friends and family, in an increasingly divided wizarding world.
There’s a Huge Problem With Fighting the Anti-Video Game Debate With a #NotAllGames Mentality
When the Trump administration dragged video games in front of members of Congress and the games industry, we didn’t expect anything more than what it was: a transparent attempt at scapegoating and skirting the real issues this country faces. It’s nothing new for games, which have been dealing with the anti-video game crowd for decades. But maybe this could be the industry’s chance at self-reflection anyway.
Almost a week after the White House released an 88-second montage of violent video game scenes, Games for Change — a non-profit focused on empowering creators to make positive change with games and technology — released its own short reel to showcase what it described as “a different view of games.”
