With CWG 2030 on the horizon, how Ahmedabad is shaping up as the sports infrastructure capital of India | Sport-others News

Earlier this year, India won 13 medals at the Asian Aquatics Championships, the country’s best-ever tally, fto finish 11th on the standings while China expectedly dominated with 54 medals, including 40 gold. The Championships, held at the aquatic stadium of the Veer Savarkar Sports Complex in Naranpura, Ahmedabad, was one of the international events lined up ahead of the 2030 Commonwealth Games set to be hosted by the state capital. Apart from home advantage, India’s swimmers benefitted from a month-long camp at a newly-built Olympic-standard pool within the 20-acre sports complex with 18 sports facilities. In October, Ahmedabad was recommended as the “proposed host” of the CWG 2030 by the executive board of Commonwealth Sport. Sajan Prakash, who won two medals at the Asian championships, a silver and a bronze, says getting acclimated to the pool was an advantage. “The Myrtha pool is designed in such a way that it reduces resistance. It is good for competitions for high-level swimmers. This (pool) is the most high-tech pool, so it is a blessing for us. Training …

Sony is making a Horizon MMO — here’s the video and details

Published by Webster

The new game is called Horizon Steel Frontiers, and Sony and the Korean video game company NCSoft are working on it together. Based on a more than 10-minute video we’ve seen featuring a mix of cinematic and pre-alpha gameplay footage as well as developer interviews, the game will focus strongly on fighting the Horizon series’ giant mechanical beasts and being able to do so with other people. Sony and a PR company representing NCSoft didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment. The Verge initially spotted promotional art for Steel Frontiers on a website used to share game assets that media and influencers are approved to use. The art seems to have been posted early, perhaps ahead of an announcement at the G-Star 2025 event in Korea later tonight. The website also included a link to a Google Drive with open access that contained the video. According to that website, Steel Frontiers will be available on PC, iOS, and Android. Footage from the video shows players taking on beasts and navigating through lush natural environments …

IMD is yet to issue its month-wise forecast for June, which will give a clearer outlook The farmers are also pinning their hopes on IMD’s first long-range forecast of above-normal monsoon this year, indicating a higher probability of excess rains, at least 105% above the long-period average (LPA). (Representational Image) India is anticipating an early arrival of the southwest monsoon this May, with conditions becoming favourable for its onset over Kerala in the next four to five days. While this comes as a big relief for heat-stressed regions, it also renews hopes of farmers preparing for the timely sowing of the rain-fed Kharif crops. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the monsoon is rapidly advancing over the South Arabian Sea, the remaining parts of the Maldives and the Comorin area, the Lakshadweep areas, and the Bay of Bengal and is likely to reach Kerala and Tamil Nadu this week.

Cannes, the global Colosseum of film, readies for 78th edition with new challenges on the horizon | Hollywood News

Published by Parlour News

Nowhere is the border-crossing nature of cinema more evident than the Cannes Film Festival, which kicks off on Tuesday in the wake of US President Donald Trump’s vow to enact tariffs on international films. Cannes, where filmmakers, sales agents and journalists gather from around the world, is the Olympics of the big screen, with its own golden prize, the Palme d’Or, to give out at the end. Filmmakers come from nearly every corner of the globe to showcase their films while dealmakers work through the night to sell finished films or packaged productions to various territories. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW VIDEO “You release a film into that Colosseum-like situation,” says Brazilian director Kleber Mendonça Filho, who’s returning to Cannes with “The Secret Agent,” a thriller set during Brazil’s dictatorship. “You’ve got to really prepare for the whole experience because it’s quite intense — not very far from the feeling of approaching a roller coaster as you go up the steps at the Palais.” Perhaps as much as ever, all eyes in the movie world will be …

Hear what Horizon Zero Dawn actor Ashly Burch thinks about Sony AI taking her job

Published by Webster

Hi. Let’s talk about AI Aloy. I saw the tech demo earlier this week. Guerilla reached out to me to let me know that the demo didn’t reflect anything that was actively in development. They didn’t use any of my performance for the demo, so none of my facial or voice data. And Guerilla owns Aloy as a character. So all that said, I feel worried. And not worried about Guerilla specifically or Horizon or my performance or my career specifically, even. I feel worried about this art form. Game performance as an art form. We are currently on strike. SAG-AFTRA is on strike against video games because of AI. Because this technology exists, because we know that game companies want to use it, we’re asking for protections. So currently what we’re fighting for is that you have to get our consent before you make an AI version of us in any form. You have to compensate us fairly and you have to tell us how you’re using this AI double. And I feel worried …

Forza Horizon 5 is the next Xbox Game Studios title making the jump to PlayStation. The open-world racing game is launching on PS5 this spring and will include the same content as what’s available in its Xbox and PC versions, according to a blog post. If you want to play the game online with your friends, crossplay between PS5, Xbox consoles, and PC will be available. Forza Horizon 5 will also be getting a new content update on all platforms called Horizon Realms. “Realms will give players the chance to explore a curated collection of some of the community’s favorite previously released Evolving Worlds, alongside some other surprises,” developer Playground Games said in the post. The game originally launched on Xbox and PC in 2021, and my former colleague Sam Byford called it the “best Forza Horizon yet.” I also had a great time playing it as a portable game, meaning it could be a lot of fun on a PlayStation Portal.
