Nintendo has had a rough week, ever since a class action lawsuit was filed over issues with the Nintendo Switch’s

Joy-Con controllers experiencing drifting. Controller drift is when a joystick registers input when there is none. In the case of a shooter game, it might move the reticle when you’re trying to aim precisely. At first, Nintendo was fine with putting out a corporate-speak non-response, but things grew heated enough that Nintendo has finally agreed to repair any Joy-Cons for free and refund past repairs. So exactly how widespread was this Joy-Con drift issue? We asked the lovely IGN community to chime in with whether or not their Switch Joy-Cons experienced drift, and a whopping 26,000 of you responded.

11 Other Nintendo Switch Lite Color Options We’d Love To See

Has your Switch experienced Joy-Con drift?
Answer: No
Total Votes: 10283/26,000

The most common answer was that no, IGN community members hadn’t experienced Joy-Con drift issues, which we’re sure Nintendo is breathing a sigh of relief over. Not so fast, though, as you may be surprised to see how many people did have troubles.

Has your Switch experienced Joy-Con drift?
Answer: Yes
Total Votes: 9774/26,000

We’ve got to admit, every piece of hardware will inevitably run into some issues, but 9,774 people out of 26,000 feels like a considerable toll. Rounded up, that’s about 38% of Switch users, according to this data. We’re sure that’s 9,774 disgruntled customers Nintendo would rather satisfy, so here’s hoping that their promise to fix the issue for free is able to solve things for most customers.

Has your Switch experienced Joy-Con drift?
Answer: I don’t have a Switch

The grand champion of the Fortnite

World Cup finals has been crowned. Kyle “Bugha” Giersdorf, a 16-year-old American boy, took home the trophy and a $3 million prize.

Congratulations @bugha! pic.twitter.com/nchRlL3wUC

— Fortnite Competitive (@FNCompetitive) July 28, 2019

Giersdorf is a player for the Sentinels group, and managed to careen past his 99 other opponents by a wide margin, earning a total of 59 points. The runner up, Psalm, scored 33 points by comparison over the finals’ six matches. The World Cup used a point-scoring system that encouraged players to not only place higher up in the ranking, but also eliminate opponents, as to discourage players from simply hiding until the end game.

“Words can’t even explain [how I feel] right now,” Giersdorf said from the Champion’s circle. “I’m just so happy. Everything I’ve done, the grind, it’s all paid off. It’s just insane.”

Notably, Bugha won by such a large spread that, unlike the duos finals on Saturday, there was almost no delay in calculating that he had won the overall tournament. Bugha’s aggression in the early matches put him at an advantage, allowing him to play more conservatively in later matches, entering match 6 with a 15-point lead.

You can see how the rest of the major contenders fared in the image below.

The Fortnite duos tournament held similarly charged energy, despite some controversy over a pair of known Fortnite cheaters being booed.

The writers of DC’s upcoming New Gods film seem to be teasing the inclusion of iconic DC supervillain, Darkseid.In a post on Twitter, New Gods co-writer Tom King posed with fellow New Gods writer and director, Ava DuVernay, while wearing a “Darkseid Is” shirt. The post simply says, “Ava is,” making two references to the “Darkseid is” concept King spoke to IGN about in a recent interview.

Ava is. pic.twitter.com/OxtuXIm1WI

— Tom King (@TomKingTK) July 27, 2019

Darkseid is certainly the most well-known of the New Gods, so but does this mean the imposing New God will stop being a distant threat and finally grace the silver screen in the upcoming DC film? So far, those involved are staying tight-lipped, so we’ll have to wait to find out.

For more details on the New Gods film, be sure to read our interview with King, which covers the inspiration for the film. To learn more about The New Gods themselves, check out our comprehensive explainer.

DC Extended Universe: Every Upcoming Movie

Disney has earned $7.67 billion at the box office in 2019, shattering the previous record for a total year’s earnings, which was also set by Disney in 2016 with $7.61 billion, according to Variety.

The new record is notable in part because, well, it’s only just the end of July, and Disney still has Frozen 2, a Maleficent sequel, and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker debuting later this year.

The Top 25 Highest Grossing Movies of All Time (Domestic)

The new $7.67 billion record includes $5.09 billion earned from overseas markets, making it the first time any studio has crossed the $5 billion mark internationally.

If you include its Marvel properties, Disney has had an understandably remarkable year for ongoing franchises, remakes, or new IPs. Captain Marvel crossed $1 billion, and Avengers: Endgame recently became the highest-grossing film ever, beating out James Cameron’s Avatar.

Despite some less-than-amazing reviews, Disney’s live-action Aladdin movie grossed more than $1 billion globally. Toy Story 4 is likely to gross more than $1 billion by the end of its theatrical run thanks to strong reception. All this means that Disney could also break the record for most consecutive billion-dollar film releases in 2019. To no one’s surprise, they hold the current record at four films. The Lion King remake is on track to crack $1 billion after two weeks in theaters, currently sitting at $962 million.

All of this comes as little surprise, considering Disney’s ongoing march of high-profile acquisitions, the most recent of which was Fox. That acquisition means that Disney now owns every superhero franchise that Fox previously owned, including the X-Men. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige teased that X-Men would be coming to the MCU in some form at this year’s Comic Con.

Altogether, Disney now accounts for about 45% of the $16 billion earned by films across the globe in 2019, according to Hollywood Reporter. Warner Bros. is Disney’s closest competitor, earning $2 billion this year so far.

Joseph Knoop is a writer/producer for IGN, and he looks forward to being acquired by Disney.

A pair of Fortnite

World Cup competitors, formerly banned by Epic for cheating, were the target of much ire Saturday, as the crowd loudly booed one’s appearance onscreen and subsequently cheered for their loss.

XXiF was competing in Saturday’s Fortnite World Cup duos tournament alongside his partner Ronaldo. During the tournament’s fourth match, XXiF was shown on the stadium’s giant screen for the first time. The crowd gradually booed XXiF louder and louder, until 100 Thieves clan player Elevate quickly eliminated him.

Video footage captured by multiple individuals on social media shows the crowd’s ecstatic reaction to XXiF’s elimination.

XXif Dies on Main Feed to Elevate and Crowd Goes Wild!!! I love this crowd pic.twitter.com/CS5FPpOwFs

— Nathan (@NeonistCG) July 27, 2019

The official 100 Thieves Twitter account even took some time to poke fun at XXiF’s demise.

.@ElevateFN plays for the people. #100T pic.twitter.com/MOyXYr0l3t

— 100 Thieves Live (@100ThievesLive) July 27, 2019

Epic Games previously banned XXiF and Ronaldo from Fortnite for 14 days, after an internal review found that the players had colluded with other players in order to acquire easy elimination points during week 3 of the Fortnite World Cup qualifiers, according to Dexerto. The pair were subsequently dropped from their team, Rise Nation. That initially sounded like the end of the whole matter, but then XXiF and Ronaldo qualified during the week 8 qualifier, finishing in third place and securing a spot during the finals.

XXiF and Ronaldo ended up placing 28th during the duos finals, securing them $50,000 each in prize money. The Fortnite community was initially angry with the decision to let XXiF and Ronaldo back in, and some at the World Cup finals could be seen visibly protesting XXiF’s participation, such as this man in the picture below wearing a “Lock XXiF Up” shirt from Reddit.

In a TwitLonger post, Ronaldo addressed the crowd’s reaction to his and XXiF’s loss.

“Damn today was rough,” Ronaldo wrote. “‪Quick message to my supporters, all of you guys know who you are. I know the crowd and a lot of people still aren’t with us. But I really appreicate (sic) everyone that has been with me since the beginning. Things will only get brighter and I will continue to improve‬. Thank you so much to all you real ones. Another shoutout to my team RiotSquad for supporting xxif and I even through all the horrible things people are saying about us.”

Epic has not addressed the community’s reaction in any public way beyond the initial ban.

This page contains a list of The Sims 4 cheats, Easter eggs, tips, and other secrets. The following list of Sims 4 Cheats are designed specifically for PC and will NOT work on any other platform. If you’ve discovered cheats for The Sims 4 that you’d like to add to the page, or have a correction, please click EDIT and add it.

If you already know how to open The Sims 4 Cheat Console (see the paragraph below if you don’t), use these links to quickly jump to each of The Sims 4 cheats sections:

In order to use cheats in The Sims 4, you’ll first need to open the cheat console. To activate it:

• On PC, hold CTRL and Shift, then press C.
• On Mac, hold Command and Shift, then press C.
• On PlayStation 4, hold all four shoulder buttons at once.
• On Xbox One, hold all four shoulder buttons at once.

Once opened, the cheat console will appear as a thin box at the top of the screen. Into that, you can type any of the cheats below or on other pages. To close the cheat console, simply press the same keys or buttons.

Some cheats require you to first this:

testingcheats true

(Note that “true” above can be replaced with the word “on” as well.)

When TestingCheats is enabled, other cheats can also be toggled. To turn off TestingCheats, type this into the cheat console:

testingcheats false

(Note that “false” can be replaced with “off.”)

Additionally, some cheats require shift-clicking Sims or objects on the PC or Mac. To execute a shift-click on consoles, hold Circle and press X (on PlayStation 4) or hold B and press A (on Xbox One).

After the large Sims 4 redesign patch in 2019 and with TestingCheats enabled, enter both of the following codes to unlock debug items:

bb.showhiddenobjects

bb.showliveeditobjects

Note that when the codes are entered, there will be no indication they worked in the cheat console. You can copy-and-paste to make sure they are entered exactly as needed.

With both codes entered, you can search Build Mode for “DEBUG” in the bottom-left corner. Don’t be surprised of a list of “DEBUG” entries appear directly above it on subsequent searches as seen below.

The search will show you a list of almost every object in the game that is ordinarily blocked off from the player. This mainly includes decorative objects usually reserved for public lots, such as non-driveable cars or entire background houses. None of these decorative objects actually work; the cars cannot be interacted with and the house props cannot be entered.

There are some workable objects in the list however. For example, you can find and place a sign that marks a fishing spot wherever you wish, including on your property as seen below.

Most of the debug objects are free to place. Some, such as public toilets or other useable objects generally found on public lots, may cost simoleons to place. However, if you’re using cheats to access the debug menu anyway, you may as well enter this classic cheat several times:

motherlode

That will add in §50,000 each time you use it, and even a single instance will generally get you enough money to place down and debug objects you may wish to use. While their functions are limited, the decorative objects can allow you to build a lot exactly how you wish.

Much of this entry had information came from a video by a YouTuber named James Turner. You can view his channel called The Sim Supply with that link.

With testingcheats true enabled, you can enter the following codes from the console for the corresponding effects in Build Mode.

• [ and ] – The left bracket enlarges an item and the right bracket shrinks it
• 9 and 0 – You can raise and lower objects using the 9 or 0 keys
• bb.moveobjects on/off – You can merge objects together and place them wherever you wish
• bb.showhiddenobjects – Items that normally must be found or dug up are now visible
• bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement – All build items you would typically have to earn are unlocked

Submitted by: somedude1800

While in the cheats console, pressing SHIFT+] also increase the size of objects. If you enable additional cheats using the testinghcheats true code and then type in cas.fulleditmode, you will enable all CAS abilities. Then you can press and hold SHIFT while clicking on the objects listed below to produce a menu that lets you select the corresponding effect.

• Sim – Allows Sim to be modified, except name and inherited traits (Modify in CAS)
• Sim – Reset a Sim (Reset Object)
• Sim – Add the Sim to the current family (Add to Family)
• Sim – All motives are full and mood is Happy (Cheat Motive > Make Happy)

• Sim – Motives remain static (Cheat MOtive > Disable Motive Decay)
• Object – Resets object
• Dirty-able Object – Makes object dirty

To control the Grim Reaper you can add him to your household if someone else dies. With testingcheatsenabled on, shift+click on the Grim Reaper before he leaves, and click Add to Family.

The MoveObjects (or Move_Objects) cheat is a classic from the Sims franchise, and it returns in The Sims 4. To activate it, you must first open the cheat console. Into the box, type the following line including punctuation:

bb.moveobjects

The coding serves as a toggle, so if you need to turn it off, simply re-enter the code. You can close the cheat console by pressing the same combination of keys or buttons as you did to open it.

MoveObjects used to be used in the Sims franchise to shift household objects when Sims were stuck. The cheat is no longer necessary for this; even without cheats or mods, you can move objects at any time even if a Sim is interacting with them, and the Sim will terminate their actions and reset themselves to a nearby tile.

However, MoveObjects in Sims 4 has additional features. With the cheat enabled, objects can be moved vertically or onto surfaces they should not be able to be placed. You can place tables onto beds, or toilets onto pools! Note that when used this way, Sims often cannot use the object in question; they wouldn’t be able to physically reach it to trigger the object’s animation scripts. The cheat can be used instead to design houses in unique ways.

Amazon Prime Video comes free with a Prime membership and Netflix is a subscription we’re sure most of you already have – all you have to do is select ‘Stream Mode’, then connect to a United States server to get access to a much bigger range of movies and TV shows that the US have over the UK. Also remember that you are able to stream Amazon Prime Video and Netflix from Amazon’s Fire TV Stick, and you can also install PureVPN on them too.

When you think about all the extra content you’re getting by just paying an extra £2.35 per month on top of your current monthly payments towards Amazon Prime or Netflix, it’s definitely worth it. That’s not to mention all the other benefits you’re getting from a VPN, such as remaining anonymous online – PureVPN allows its users to utilize a single account on up to 5 devices simultaneously from the same country. With PureVPN, all your devices are completely protected.

After numerous teases, Team Rocket finally made their debut in Pokemon Go earlier this week. The villainous trainers would “take over” various PokeStops around the world and challenge players to battles using their Shadow Pokemon. Although Rocket sightings up until now have been relatively rare, particularly if you live in rural areas, you’ll have a better chance to encounter some Rocket grunts today, July 28, thanks to a special limited-time event.

From 4-5 PM local time, Team Rocket grunts will take over all of your local PokeStops, guaranteeing you’ll encounter the villainous trainers during that time frame. When you spin the Photo Disc at a Team Rocket PokeStop, the Rocket grunt will reveal themselves and challenge you to a Pokemon battle. As previously mentioned, Team Rocket has Shadow Pokemon in their possession, which are surrounded by a sinister aura.

If you defeat the Rocket grunt, they’ll leave their Shadow Pokemon behind, giving you an opportunity to capture it. You can choose to either keep the Pokemon in its Shadow form or “purify” it. Not only will this return the Pokemon’s appearance to normal, it’ll increase its stats and confer a few other benefits. You can read more about how the process works in our guide to catching and purifying Shadow Pokemon.

While you’re out searching for Team Rocket, you may want to search for Armored Mewtwo Raids as well–the Legendary Pokemon is leaving the game on July 31, making this your last opportunity to add one to your collection. Pokemon Go’s One Piece crossover event is also ending soon; you have until tomorrow, July 29, to catch a Pikachu sporting a straw hat like the one that One Piece hero Luffy wears.

Meanwhile, Pokemon Go’s next Community Day is scheduled for Saturday, August 3. This time, the featured Pokemon will be Ralts. If you can evolve it into one of its final forms–Gardevoir or Gallade–up to an hour after the Community Day ends, the Pokemon will automatically learn a special event-exclusive move. Additionally, Pokemon Eggs will hatch at a quarter of the distance they typically require during the Community Day.
