A hot potato: Donald Trump and his administration are set to receive a luxurious $400 million new plane from Qatar that will be used as a temporary Air Force One for the president. The plane is a free gift, but the "flying palace" could end up costing taxpayers millions as it will need to be retrofitted to install the safety and security features required by a POTUS. Trump has expressed his displeasure at Boeing falling behind on a $3.8 billion project to replace the Air Force One fleet. The co

I played hands-on with multiple missions in a preview Remedy Entertainment‘s FBC: Firebreak game. You’ll spend so much time exterminating monsters known as The Hiss that you’ll feel like a rodent exterminator. It’s a quirky game with beautiful triple-A graphics and some quirky humorous elements, like the presence of tons of paper sticky notes through some of the levels. It’s a co-op first-person shooter game, with online play for three players. It’s a nice change for Remedy, as I love its narra
