Antonella Barba is currently a contestant on the sixth season of American Idol. Now that we've introduced the leading cast, let's get down to the nitty-gritty. How does it play? Rather well, actually. The game advertises that it features "MMO-style combat," but that's not really the case, thank the stars. There are similarities, of course: classes, experience points, abilities, etc. But that's about it. At its core, Forge is 100% pure, unbridled action, and it bears much more resemblance to a frenetic third-person shooter in its gameplay. Each match is full of players wall-jumping all over the place, spells and arrows flying, and pushing and pulling in a tug-of-war for control of the map. And let me tell you, it's a load of fun. If there were an MMO that utilized Forge-style combat, I don't think I'd ever log out; frankly, I've found it hard enough to log out of Forge as it is.
Owned by Sony, Crackle is an ad-supported free movie and TV show watching platform. Since SONY has a global footprint, we can imagine the massive popularity that Crackle already enjoys. It naturally gets you a lot of movies, shows, and entertainment video content for free. All you need to do is sign up (a no-frills process). Once you are signed up on the website, you can make a watch list of your own.
A watch is the only accessory that one can wear every day with everything. It is a timeless piece that works with all kinds of attire and perfect for all occasions. Gifting someone a watch means giving them something that is useful for every day. It is a perfect gift because the person can use it to keep a track of time.
We modern folk try to apply our modern reasonings to it assuming that if it's 'God's word' then it should just be 'right'. So we set in our minds what we should demand of it, what would make it 'right'. What's 'missing' that we think should be there if it were 'right'. It's simply a telling of how each thing humans would be familiar with came into being. The sky, the ground, the sea, the animals, us. And when read from a human point of view, it's incredibly accurate to how it all really played out.
The amount of original content being produced by third party streaming sites is making cable companies nervous, and rightly so. The scripts are good, the actors are established and the growth possibilities are essentially unlimited at this point. With so many new original shows to choose from, it's easy to see how Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime are revolutionizing the television industry.
