Ahead of the Super Bowl, NBC touted “volumetric augmented reality” technology that meant lifelike 3D animations of players could jump into the broadcast instead of packaged full-motion video. NBC and its tech partner, Ross Video, scanned in six players during the week before the big game.

Most video games task you with killing people, and Assassin’s Creed Origins is no exception. Not all games, however, are quite so particular about how and where you kill people. When a bit of that classic Ubisoft open-world jank gets in the way of our contract killing, we’re forced to get creative and frame ourselves for a murder we committed wrong the first time. Game Ogre is a biweekly series that we’re forced to do because of an ill-advised theft of wizard gold. Called a “comedy” by some, it’

In a new video, Super Mario Odyssey producer Yoshiaki Koizumi addressed longstanding mysteries about Toad’s head, Mario’s belly button and the nature of Mario, Peach and Pauline’s relationship. First, let’s address the all-important mystery of Toad’s head.
