We’re In The Endgame Now: Crystal Dynamics Will End Development On ‘Marvel’s Avengers’
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Crystal Dynamics / Marvel’s Avengers The struggle train that is Crystal Dynamic’s attempt at a video game MCU with Marvel’s Avengers is coming to an end. After two long years of trying to follow its “roadmap” of content, Crystal Dynamics announced it will end active development on Marvel’s Avengers, saying it was a decision it “undertook in conjunction with our partners.” The sad news came in a blog post called “Final Update on The Future of Marvel’s Avengers” that hilariously dropped with a broken link, clearly indicating how doomed this video game was. In the post, Crystal Dynamic said it would discontinue support for the game on September 30, which will see all digital purchases end, meaning all those costumes and other DLC will be free. S...

MLK & Coretta Scott King Monument Brings Everyone Together For An Epic Roasting Session
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Boston Globe / Getty/ MLK A moment meant to honor the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his wife, Coretta Scott King, became nothing but pure jokes on social media. Friday, Jan.13, “The Embrace,” a 20-foot tall, 40-foot wide monument, made its debut on Boston Common, where King gave his speech on April 23, 1965, to a crowd of 22,000. The statue, which Brooklyn-based conceptual artist Hank Willis Thomas designed, drew inspiration from a photo of King and Scott King hugging each other after he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. The headless monument only features the couple’s arms embracing each other, and it has drawn tremendous amounts of criticism from folks on Twitter and some members of the King’s family. Many people call the statue hideous, wh...
Twitter Salutes The Living Legend James Earl Jones On His 92nd Birthday
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Edmund Eckstein / Getty / James Earl Jones If you opened up Twitter and saw James Earl Jones trending, you can breathe a sigh of relief. It’s the iconic actor’s 92nd birthday. Since Elon Musk purchased Twitter, trending topics no longer share descriptions of why certain things are trending anymore, so it can cause quite a scare when we see specific celebrities in the trending topic section. But everything is okay. James Earl Jones is fine. Today is his 92nd evolution around the sun, and we could not think of a better time to celebrate him. Born in Arkabutla Mississippi in 1931, Jones is best known for his recognizable voice that strikes fear into the hearts of the Rebel Alliance and Jedi Knights in the Star Wars films as Darth Vader. His voice also ...

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Amy Sussman / Getty / Eddie Murphy Yes, we’re over the Will Smith slap, but dammit, we can’t be mad at a well-timed joke about it from the GOAT, Eddie Murphy. Only Eddie Murphy could mention the infamous slap seen worldwide into 2023, and it not be a cringeworthy moment. The legendary stand-up comedian /actor made a joke about the moment Will Smith slapped Chris Rock while delivering his speech after accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award during Wednesday night’s Golden Globe Awards. Murphy, the elder statesman in his craft, gave the Hollywood newbies in the building some sound advice to close out his speech. “I want to let you know that there is a definitive blueprint that you can follow to achieve success, prosperity, longevity, and piece of mind,” ...
Ghana Twitter Is Not Here For Meek Mill Shooting A Music Video At The Jubilee House
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz / Meek Mill Philly flame spitter Meek Mill enjoyed his time in Ghana, but he did something to rub the natives the wrong way. Rappers using locations to shoot their music videos is nothing new. With permission, Beyoncé and JAY-Z filmed their visual for “APESH*T” at the Lourve, and who’s telling The Carters no? Exactly. Besides getting his cell phone swiped and eventually getting it back, Meek Mill had a blast in Ghana, but he definitely had too much fun. A viral music video featuring the rapper and his homies rapping in the Jubilee House, the presidential palace in Ghana, is not sitting well with Ghanaians, who believe he violated his access. Television broadcaster Victor Atsu Tamaklo hit Twitter to talk about the disr...
HHW Gaming Presents 15 Games We Can’t Wait To Play In 2023
Source: Future Publishing / Getty / Video Games Welcome to 2023, and it promises to be another significant year for gamers. 2022 is in the books, and it closed on an extremely high note thanks to God of War: Ragnarok blowing gamers away once again and cementing Kratos as one of the greatest video game characters ever, sorry Mario. Oh, and we can’t forget Horizon Forbidden West, another fantastic entry into Guerilla’s epic franchise adding to PlayStation’s stellar year of exclusives. But that was then. This is now. 2023 looks promising, thanks mainly to games that were supposed to drop in 2022 having their wigs pushed back. Hip Hop Wired decided to narrow that list down to 15 games WE are most excited to pick up the sticks for in 2023. Now, if we miss one, that’s okay; remember, this is our...
No Debate: Skip Bayless Dragged For Insensitive Damar Hamlin Tweet, Shannon Sharpe A No-Show On ‘Undisputed’
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Nicholas Hunt / Getty / Skip Bayless Skip Bayless is not afraid to give his awful opinion on matters and offend people, but this time he definitely played himself. Monday night, the sports world came to a standstill when Buffalo Bills safety Darmin Hamlin passed out after suffering a cardiac arrest following a tackle on Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, the team said in a statement. The unprecedented moment saw an ambulance make its way onto Paycor Stadium field. First responders performed CPR on Hamlin as his teammates and opponents tearfully watched and made a shield around him to keep fans from seeing what was happening. While that traumatic scene was going on, Skip Bayless was on his Twitter account and let off what many believe was ...
Swedish Activist Greta Thunberg Owns Alt-Right Hater Andrew Tate In A Single Tweet, Twitter Loves It
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: JUSTIN TALLIS / Getty/ Greta Thunberg Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg put on a masterclass on how to check a troll, and all she needed was one tweet to make it happen. Manosphere meathead Andrew Tate f**ked around and found out when he picked a fight with the wrong teen on Twitter. Known for spreading straight-up misogyny, financial scams, and other heada**ery on TikTok, Tate decided to try Greta Thunberg and mock her on Elon Musk’s Twitter. For those who don’t know Tate, including us, he was a struggle kickboxer before he found his calling being an “alt-right influencer,” who proudly describes himself as “absolutely a sexist” and “absolutely a misogynist.” He also believes that women “belong in the home” and were “given to the man and belon...

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Kevin C. Cox / Getty / Waffle House Only at Waffle House can customers get a side of hands and feet with their grits, cheese eggs, bacon, and waffles. *Trigger Warning, this story will contain written and visual references to a fight.* The famed down south 24-hour breakfast hot spot is usually the go-to destination after the club lets out or whatever late-night activities are wrapped up. The food should be the main topic of discussion with any food establishment, but with Waffle House, the brawls always seem to be on the menu. Recently a video of a brawl going down in the establishment between customers and Waffle House employees has gone viral on Twitter. Most believe it was recent, but the person who kindly deposited it on Elon Musk’s Twitter...
