We all enjoy acknowledging our gaming victories in some fashion, but one Call of Duty: Warzone player went above and above on May 5.
What’s Warzone about?
A free-to-play battle royale video game called Call of Duty: Warzone was launched on March 10, 2020, for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows.
The game debuted during Season 2 of Modern Warfare DLC and is a part of 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and tied to 2020’s Call of Duty: Black Ops: Cold War and 2021’s Call of Duty: Vanguard, but does not need the purchase of any of the aforementioned titles.
Battle Royale and Plunder are the game’s two primary game types at launch. The new in-game cash system for Warzone may be utilized at “Buy Stations” located around the area.
Cash can be exchanged for restricted access to players’ custom classes (which were formerly shared with Modern Warfare’s normal modes until Season 6, v1.29, but are now exclusive to Warzone) via “Loadout” drops, for instance. Additionally, players may buy “killstreaks” and gas masks with Cash.
Looting structures and killing players with cash on them will provide cash. Warzone initially only provided Trios, a three-player squad configuration. However, free post-launch content upgrades have all introduced Solos, Duos, and Quads to the game.
Critics gave the game mostly positive reviews. Activision declared that there were more than 100 million active gamers in Warzone in April 2021.
Well, that’s one way to celebrate
A follow-up called Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, a free-to-play addition to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, was published on November 16, 2022. A mobile version of Warzone is also in the works.
My personal favorite was the story of the 15-year-old Twitch broadcaster who throws raves in his bedroom. This celebration has a completely another atmosphere, as Facebook Gaming partner Rexzilla hired a Mariachi band to perform songs like La Bamba and The Macarena to celebrate every win for his side.
Rexzilla has a good deal of Warzone experience. He is one of the top snipers in North America with over 1700 victories in the bigger Warzone game and a further 900 + wins in the smaller 40-person Rebirth battle royale variant. Because of his expertise, his band had several opportunities to perform.
The traditional Mexican acoustic band has been employed by other streamers to commemorate Call of Duty kills, as fans were quick to point out. Rexzilla is not the first. HunterTV, a Warzone player and member of the FaZe Clan esports squad, hired a band to perform after victories in his game in March. Here, the timing of the prank was what made a difference.
The Mexican holiday of Cinco de Mayo is observed on May 5. The celebration honors the little Mexican army’s triumph over the considerably stronger French forces. Similar to St. Patrick’s Day, Cinco de Mayo is a holiday that is more commonly observed in the United States than it is in Mexico.
The free-to-play Call of Duty game’s publisher Activision Blizzard just revealed that a sequel is in the works and will be available by year’s end.
I hired a Mariachi band to play every time we won. Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone. 🍻 pic.twitter.com/oOwMsyJ2NM
One of the most well-known franchises in the world has failed to keep gamers due to the corporation losing 60 million active monthly users in the past year.
When you ask someone what their favorite Pokémon game is, they always give you such radically varied answers.
The reign of Johto
Some will stand behind Black and White and risk their lives to defend them, while some can look past Red and Blue’s evident flaws and applaud the series’ history.
Really, there is no correct response; it all depends on personal preference. Despite this, I will contend that the second Pokémon generation was the most ambitious ever, with Pokémon Crystal in particular continuing to be hailed as a true masterpiece.
People are still pleading for a similar game 22 years after it was released. That conveys a lot.
The pinnacle of Johto was—and still is—Pokémon Crystal. You’d think that Game Freak would be at a loss for how to enhance the experience further after creating two arguably ideal sequels to Red, Blue, and Yellow (those being Gold and Silver), but this wasn’t the case at all.
It’s simple to forget that this was the first game in the series to introduce animated sprites for Pokémon as they engaged in combat. While this might seem like a simple addition (and one that’s been upgraded significantly since), these animations added so much extra character to the region’s species.
Suicune, the best Water-type legendary Pokémon we’ve ever had, played a considerably larger role in the plot than it did in Gold and Silver, and the Ruins of Alph were also expanded to contain additional Unown puzzles and juicy, juicy backstory. These changes are evident in the box cover for the game.
Despite this, the opportunity to select a female character to play as may have been the biggest shift of all, and it happened immediately at the start of the game.
Prior to that, there were only male characters available for players to choose from, and while Red and Ethan were both cool, it was extremely restrictive for all the female Pokémon enthusiasts who were forced to play as men on what was supposed to be their very own adventure.
It was game changing

The Boys is extremely cursed, but I mean it in a good way, I believe. It’s difficult to watch an episode without wondering, “What did I just witness?” for at least ten minutes later.
What. A. Show.
Eric Kripke created the American superhero TV show The Boys for Amazon Prime Video. It is based on the comic book of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, and it follows the titular vigilante team as they fight against people who misuse their superpowers.
Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Dominique McElligott, Jessie T. Usher, Chace Crawford, Laz Alonso, Tomer Capone, Karen Fukuhara, and Nathan Mitchell are among the cast members of the show.
The comic book series adaptation, which was once planned to be a full-length movie, started its development in 2008 with Adam McKay as its director.
The project was abandoned while still in progress as a result of creative disagreements between the team and the studios that acquired the movie.
In 2016, Cinemax stated that it would be adapted into a television series, reviving the development for the project. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg were chosen to serve as the series’ executive producers, and Kripke was chosen to serve as its showrunner.
The series’ rights were acquired by Amazon Prime Video in November 2017, and Toronto-based filming got underway in May 2018.
Check out its trailer here:
On July 26, 2019, The Boys’ first season of eight episodes made its debut. On September 4, 2020, the second season debuted, and on June 3, 2022, the third season did the same. The show was given a fourth season in June 2022.
I need to see more
There will be “the most horrific thing” you’ve ever seen in season four of The Boys. I’m afraid. Remember that we’ve already seen a superhero orgie, which featured an octopus, and that there was the whole sneezing penis explosion incident?
I fear to imagine what else the program has in store. The Boys is currently the highest-rated superhero series out there, despite its curse.
According to Nielsen statistics, The Boys was the eleventh most streamed show overall in 2022, according to UNILAD.
The Prime Video series scored better than Loki, Moon Knight, and She-Hulk but fell short of Stranger Things, Wednesday, and The Crown. In 2022, a total of 10.6 billion minutes of the series were seen.
It’s actually quite shocking that not a single Marvel TV show made the top 15, as it were. The Boys is undoubtedly a more well-known film.
All of the Marvel programs have just made their season debuts, whereas the fourth season of the show is now in production. It’s still a remarkable accomplishment. Who is anticipating season four?
Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who starred in The Walking Dead, will be joining the cast, in case you missed it, and we’ve already gotten our first glimpse of Butcher and Homelander back in action. The Boys’ fourth season has not yet been given a release date.
Even the possibility that it will air this year is uncertain because of the ongoing filming. Well, let’s hope it does.
The eagerly anticipated big-screen rendition of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child might be released soon if the rumors are true.
Ah, what a time to be alive
Jack Thorne’s play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, was adapted from an original story by J. Thorne, John Tiffany, and K. Rowling. Nineteen years have passed since the events of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when the narrative takes place.
The story centers on Harry Potter, who is currently in charge of the Ministry of Magic’s Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and his son Albus Severus Potter, who is about to begin his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The play is referred to as “the eighth Harry Potter narrative” by Rowling.
For its sorcery, deceptions, and stage wizardry, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has won almost universal praise since it debuted.
The Palace Theatre hosted the opening night of the original West End play on June 7, 2016. At the 2017 Laurence Olivier Awards, it won nine honors, including Best New Play, and got a record-breaking eleven nominations.
During the 2018 Tony Awards, that production was nominated ten times and took home six prizes, including Best Play.
At the Mehr, the first non-English production debuted. theater on December 5, 2021, in Hamburg, Germany. On June 19, 2022, a Canadian performance debuted at the Ed Mirvish Theatre in Toronto. On July 8, 2022, a Japanese production debuted at the TBS Akasaka ACT Theater.
The play was initially intended to be seen in two parts over two evenings or on the same day (i.e., in the afternoon and in the evening). The play was restaged in June 2021 as a single, 3.5-hour production in preparation for further performances on Broadway in November 2021.
On February 23, 2019, an Australian production debuted at the Princess Theatre in Melbourne. On December 1st, 2019, a second American production debuted at the Curran Theatre in San Francisco.
Shut up and take my money!
The Wizarding World franchise’s production firm, Warner Bros, may be thinking about adapting the two-part play that serves as a prelude to the main story, according to sources quoted by the UK tabloid The Sun.
The Cursed Child is presently being considered for a big-screen adaptation by Warner Bros. They’ve had it in their sights since since the show became such a roaring success on the West End. The Fantastic Beasts franchise was delayed for a long due to the volume of work being done on it.
Although everyone wants Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson to return, the source also told The Sun that the studio needs scripts in place before making an offer to the actors.
The trio was among many other actors and directors that appeared in the Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts reunion episode from the previous year.
JK Rowling, the creator of this series, Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany worked together to create an original story that became the basis for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. The events of the play occur 19 years before those in the concluding Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
