The activity kicks off Monday night, NEWSWEEK has learned, with an unpublicized dinner reception for top party donors hosted by Cheney and his wife, Lynne, at the vice presidential residence. It culminates the next evening with a glittering “Presidential Gala” at the National Guard Armory featuring appearances by President Bush and members of his Cabinet. Anxious to avoid comparisons with the widely criticized fund-raising activity of the Clinton White House, Republican officials insist that the kick off dinner at Cheney’s government residence-expected to draw a crowd of over 400-is “not a fund-raiser....

Plenty of games have exhibited traces of Breath of the Wild’s DNA in the ensuing years, and the explorable vistas of Pokemon Legends: Arceus certainly seem reminiscent. Yet the gameplay loop in this Pokemon title seems more akin to a Monster Hunter game, which means Capcom might be interested in what Game Freak got right about its requests system....

A full screen with no visible camera is something manufacturers have been pushing toward for a long time. Some have even used creative wallpapers to camouflage hole-punch cameras so they’re less visible.

Both Marvel’s Spider-Man and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales feature stylish traversal animations, such as tumble-flips or eccentric tailspins while in midair. Further, Miles’ traversal optionally adds his diverse bio-electrokinesis for midair extension launches. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales raises the bar for creative fluidity, but, as one player demonstrates, there are still funny instances where the player’s mastery of New York City traversal is sometimes not a match for unexpected environmental bugs....
