Five Reasons Why Jon Batiste’s ‘We Are’ Won Album of the Year at the 2022 Grammys

The much-discussed favorite in the album of the year category going into the 64th Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night (Apr. 3) was undoubtedly Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour, the blockbuster debut effort from 2021 breakout singer/songwriter Olivia Rodrigo. But it wasn’t Sour, nor similarly well-performing and critically acclaimed sets from Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X or Doja Cat, that took home the top honors on the evening. That distinction instead was accepted by Jon Batiste, the veteran do-everything jazz-soul artist, for his We Are album — a No. 86-peaking set on the Billboard 200 albums chart, with only a handful of mainstream reviews to its credit.

Logan Paul Wore a $5,275,000 USD PSA Grade 10 Pikachu Illustrator Card for WrestleMania 38

Logan Paul has just set a new Guinness World Record for the most expensive Pokémon trading card sold at a private sale. The card he now owns is the elusive Pikachu Illustrator — a PSA 7 sold last month for $900,000 USD — graded PSA 10. Having already owned a PSA 9 version of the card, Paul traded his PSA 9 along with $4,000,000 USD to Matt Allen where the trade amounted to a record-breaking $5,275,000 USD in total value. Out of the 39 of these cards which were produced in 1998, only one has ever reached a perfect PSA 10. Swapping out his Charizard, this new PSA 10 Pikachu Illustrator, Paul wore in his diamond-encrusted card necklace as he and The Miz walked down the ramp for their Tag Team match at WrestleMania 38. Not only did he win the match but he was also awarded the Guinness World Re...

Twitch Streamer Completes ‘Elden Ring’ Without Suffering Any Damage at All

Speedrunners are now managing to finish Elden Ring in less than 30 minutes, but none have managed to complete the game entirely without taking any damage — at all until now. The feat was achieved by Twitch streamer Seki, who managed to complete the game without taking a single hit from enemies or suffering any other environmental damage at all over three hours. While the run itself took a relatively short time, he says he spent more than 130 hours in-game to master all its mechanics. There were also several traits he relied on, such as dexterity and intelligence build, the Moonveil katana, and the Rock Sling spell. “The hardest part of the run by far is the final boss: Elden Beast,” Seki told Kotaku. “It has a specific move that is infamously unfair: Elden Stars. One of the only ways ...

The Original ‘Angry Birds’ Is Back

13 years after the original game launched on Apple‘s iOS, Rovio has now brought back the immensely nostalgic, original version of Angry Birds. Now releasing under its Rovio Classics banner, the remastered version of the 2009 mobile hit has been completely rebuilt from the ground up using Unity, so you’ll still be able to experience that signature gameplay while using newer, more modern devices. The developer explained to fans last year that it had to phase out some of its older titles given how quickly technology is advancing, saying that “Today’s mobile technology and games landscape has evolved to a place where supporting them was untenable.” Luckily for fans, it has now found a new way to bring that nostalgia back after a “big outcry” for the game. For now, Rovio hasn’t announ...
