Max Payne fans should expect much more than a simple upgrade. The Max Payne remakes will be full-blown AAA video game productions, with Rockstar Games providing the budget and Remedy handling development. The games will be built using Remedy’s Northlight engine, which it used to make the critically-acclaimed Control. RELATED: Someone Calculated Max Payne’s Kill Count And It’s A Lot It sounds like Remedy Entertainment is looking to really go all out with the Max Payne remakes, as the games will be skipping PlayStation 4 and Xbox One....

Actually, Charles is lucky. McDonnell Douglas and Unisys Corp. plan to end health coverage completely for nonunion retirees in coming years. A survey by the A. Foster Higgins consulting firm found that two thirds of major corporations have curtailed retiree health plans or intend to in 1993. Many are raising premiums, deductibles and eligibility rules for retirees-the same benefit crunches many current workers have faced. To date, retirees have been insulated from those cold realities....

The conference on Wednesday waived a six-game requirement to make its championship game, which will allow No. 4 Ohio State (5-0) to represent the East division against No. 14 Northwestern (5-1) on Dec. 19. From a strictly business perspective, it makes sense. The Buckeyes get a sixth game and a chance to win a fourth straight conference championship. Ohio State likely makes another College Football Playoff appearance and will fight it out with perennial contenders in No....

New Zealand fast bowler Trent Boult on Monday said the biggest challenge for him in Twenty20 cricket is to out-think the batsmen. “The difference between Tests and the shorter format is that batsmen are coming at you a lot more and looking to attack against your deliveries. My thinking has to be much quicker and I have to plan to be ahead of the batsmen as much as I can....

Comedian Jerrod Carmichael hosted the evening, which was held at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. Tracy Morgan, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Billy Porter, Natasha Lyonne, Niecy Nash-Betts, and Quentin Tarantino all presented awards at the ceremony, where there some surprise wins and shocking snubs. Eddie Murphy, meanwhile, was presented with the Cecil B. DeMille Award, and American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy received the Carol Burnett Award....

The poll, which was conducted by CNBC/Change Research, surveyed 2,408 likely voters across these six states from June 12 to June 14. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points. Biden holds the largest lead over Trump in Florida, with a 50 percent to 43 percent advantage. Biden’s next largest lead is in Pennsylvania with 49 percent supporting the former vice president and 46 percent favoring Trump....

The poll, which was conducted by Chegg/College Pulse election tracking, found that 68 percent of college students said they would vote for Biden if the election was held today, while 19 percent chose Trump. Among the remaining percentages, 6 percent said they would not vote, and 7 percent said other or a third-party candidate. Chegg/College Pulse’s student election tracker has been surveying 1,500 full-time and part-time college students on a weekly basis, which began on April 14....

“The failure to get our inspectors on the ground in those early months will always hamper any investigation into the origin of COVID-19,” Biden said in a statement. Biden said he received an initial analysis earlier this month but is directing the intelligence community to dive deeper and report back to him in 90 days. “As of today, the U.S. Intelligence Community has ‘coalesced around two likely scenarios’ but has not reached a definitive conclusion on this question,” Biden said....

The CDC says it plans to end all sweeping asylum limits at the U.S. border, which were originally created at the beginning of the pandemic in order to curb cases of COVID-19 allegedly being brought over by migrants. The repealed order was Title 42, the controversial border policy enacted during the administration of former President Donald Trump. Around 200,000 migrants are estimated to have been turned away from seeking asylum in the U....

While polling shows the majority of Americans don’t support such measures, Biden is pushing for taxpayers to fund the abortion industry overseas and pay for domestic abortions on demand. He has also proposed loosening restrictions on abortion by codifying Roe v. Wade. With abortion-supporting majorities in both the House and the Senate, a vice president who prosecuted pro-life journalists as California’s attorney general and a prospective secretary of Health and Human Services who was rebuked by the Supreme Court for trying to force pro-life pregnancy centers to advertise abortions, the president may just get what he’s proposing....

Russian troops have been gathering near the country’s shared borders with neighboring Ukraine, sparking fears in the former Soviet Union member and the West that Moscow is planning an invasion. “What I am doing is putting together what I believe to be will be the most comprehensive and meaningful set of initiatives to make it very, very difficult for Mr. Putin to go ahead and do what people are worried he may do,” Biden told reporters on Friday....

Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif on Friday said that renegotiation of the Iran Nuclear Deal could occur before Raisi takes power, offering some White House officials hope that President Joe Biden may be able to restart the talks which began under former President Barack Obama in 2015. But Israel’s Bennett cautioned the U.S. against trying to work with any Tehran officials, particularly the incoming Raisi regime of the Islamic Republic government....

The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act bans imports from Xinjiang unless businesses prove the items they are sending were not produced with forced labor. Government agencies will also be required to elevate their systems for monitoring the use of forced labor in China, and the bill establishes a presumption that products created in Xinjiang are produced using forced labor. The House and Senate each passed the bill with significant bipartisan support before it was sent to Biden....

And while no conclusion was said to have been reached, narratives from both sides suggested another top issue, that of Taiwan, remained a central sticking point in strained relations between Beijing and Washington. Speaking to reporters hours after the leaders’ “direct, candid, detailed and very substantive conversation” concluded Friday, the senior Biden administration official said that the two men “spent the preponderance of their time discussing Russia’s unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine, as well as the implications of the crisis for U....

According to Sarah Gordon, PhD, MS, assistant professor of health law, policy, and management at the Boston University School of Public Health, Biden’s executive order would create a 90-day enrollment period starting on February 15, 2021. “This is important because typically one can only sign up for marketplace coverage during the open enrollment period or during a special enrollment period,” Gordon tells Verywell. A new open enrollment would give people another opportunity and more time to enroll in health insurance....

With a two-goal lead going into the last seven minutes of Saturday’s encounter against the Seattle Sounders, the Montreal Impact looked a sure bet to seal their first win of the season. But they blew it, as the visitors managed to cut the deficit in half through a Nicolas Lodeiro penalty kick, and Will Bruin banged home the equalizer deep into stoppage time stunning the crowd of 34,373 at Olympic Stadium....

While the Heat have been heavily dependent on the ‘Bash Brothers’ this season, the Hurricanes have their very own version of the moniker with D’Arcy Short and Matthew Wade in ominous form for the 2017-18 BBL finalists. With the Blundestone Arena set to host the match, one can expect a very competitive game with both teams trying to get one over the other on Tuesday. Squads to choose from: Hobart Hurricanes:...

Stop. MORE: Best photos from Week 9 | Jerry Jones, the enabler | Week 10 opening betting lines It’s over. The Cowboys aren’t running out of games; they’ve run out. They’re 2-6. They’re beyond the “when Romo comes back” stage. It seemed reasonable for a few of their six straight Romo-less losses. A case can be made in most of the individual defeats; only the Patriots game wasn’t up for grabs in the fourth quarter....
