On Tuesday, 2K made two huge announcements about their future in sports gaming, and specifically in the video game golf world.
They announced a long-term partnership with golf great and sports icon Tiger Woods and their acquisition of HB Studios, the developer responsible for The Golf Club, which turned into PGA Tour 2K21. Woods will serve as an Executive Director to the series, but it's unclear if the game will carry his name.
One 2K representative told me, "the overarching story here is that we're not only reinforcing our commitment to grow the golf games category but the overall sports category as well, as we see continued success with our PGA Tour, NBA, and WWE partnerships and look forward to what our NFL partnership has in store."

Coping with Video Games: The Positives and Negatives
In our newly pandemic-defined society, we all are frantically searching for a way to cope. Without our friends and family to rely on, most of us must look to other resources for entertainment and sanity. For myself and millions of others, video games are the end-all-be-all of coping mechanisms. Whether it be Call of Duty , Animal Crossing , or Among Us , millions of individuals worldwide turn to video games for much-needed comfort in our heavily modified reality.
We control the character, so we become the character. We mostly idolize our characters, their heroism, athleticism, and overall aesthetic. When we morph our minds into the screen, we become happier and content with our current situation. While this sentimental cacophony seems effortless and painless, we must understand the gravity of the implications of existing within a fictitious reality.

Here are some other streamers and YouTube video makers to throw into your household's gaming media mix.

Having a good monitor can make all the difference. You do not, however, need to break the bank and buy a massive 4K monitor. You could go with a 2K setup up to 32 inches. You would benefit more from a 4K setup if you are going for something bigger than that. But remember: with 4K, the prices will increase significantly. Instead, you could save yourself some money and get a 2K high refresh-rate monitor with GSync or FreeSync.
The Most Famous Canceled Video Games | Digital Trends
Making video games is no easy task. So many games have a tremendous number of developmental hurdles that come up behind the scenes — and some games never even see the light of day. While video games are an art form that is often driven by passion, it’s also a business. This means they need to be profitable first and foremost. Sometimes, video game publishers will opt to cancel a game instead of continuing to pump money into a project that isn’t working out.
