MORE: Week 10 college football scores, highlights Coupled with No. 6 Ohio State’s 55-24 loss to Iowa, Penn State’s loss puts the conference’s playoff hopes in serious jeopardy — though you’re unlikely to get any tears out of Spartans coach Mark Dantonio or Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz....

Foley, a 2013 WWE Hall of Fame inductee, had many battles with Vader throughout their legendary wrestling careers.

For those unaware, Microsoft’s Xbox briefings have typically been held on Monday morning during the week of E3, so the company’s change in its standard schedule at the event is interesting to say the least. While this alteration to Microsoft’s expected appearance at E3 2017 could simply be due to a conflict in different companies’ scheduled press conferences, with Microsoft having made the announcement in a tweet with an image of internal components of Project Scorpio, it’s more likely that the tech firm wants to have its time in the spotlight before its competition in order to set a high bar for the rest of the expo with reveals for its new console....

Ever since the Windows 10 reveal, Microsoft has greatly focused on the gaming aspects of the new OS (and the return of the beloved start button).

Soon enough, that vision will be realized, as Microsoft has announced that Windows 10 will be available beginning on July 29th....

Buddying up with Dead Rising 3 developer Capcom this past week, Bill Gates’ billion-dollar empire has been out and about on the streets of Canada, spreading the word (or perhaps the infection) on the Xbox One’s imminent release. Following the arrival of Vancouver’s very own mega-sized console on Wednesday, fans of the Xbox brand were informed of a super secret Easter egg tucked away in the system’s innards. To access it, they would have to enter an online prize draw, with rewards ranging from exclusive digital content to launch day trips to Toronto....

This isn’t the first time that Microsoft has re-released a bunch of Xbox Live gamer tags, but it has to be one of its most substantial offerings. However, it’s unclear how many of these screen names were purchased by individual gamers and how many were scooped up en-mass. Knowing that there are over 1 million screen names out there that were claimed but never (or rarely) used will be surprising to some....

Microsoft’s Number One Spot as a Video Game Publisher Metacritic acts as an aggregate of critics’ scores to give an overall average, called its “Metascore.” This score gives gamers a one-glance summary of how well a game is doing in the eyes of reviewers and players.

On June 26th, the trademark for Fable was renewed by Microsoft, which on its own isn’t anything special, as companies regularly renew trademarks for IPs they control, not always with the intent to do anything with them. RELATED: Will Fable’s Morality System Work in 2020? However, it has been noted that the Intent to Use tag has been marked with Yes, heavily implying, if not outright confirming, that Microsoft hasn’t abandoned the series and fully intends on doing something with it in the future....

What Happened in the Attack on Microsoft’s Cloud Services? The news broke early on Christmas Day 2020 on the Washington Post. The report states that Russian government hackers managed to break into and steal personal information from Microsoft’s cloud services, taking email addresses from at least one private company. The affected company was not named, and the report is quick to note that Microsoft as a company was not hacked. Instead, the attack targeted a partner of Microsoft, which resells the software giant’s cloud services....

This all-in-one suite has been on the iPhone and on Android since 2019, but is finally available where you actually want it—on the iPad. The combined suite makes it easier for you to stay inside Microsoft Office’s various apps, but does it really offer an advantage over standalone apps? “Having an integrated suite reduces inefficiencies for accessing data and for collaborating,” Jacob Dayan, CEO and co-founder of Community Tax, told Lifewire—somewhat cryptically—via email....

It’s also got an impressive 10.5 hour average battery life too, so it should be able to go an entire day without needing to be charged. While the screen isn’t quite a full 4K, it does have a 2736 x 1824 resolution which is more than enough for a screen of this size....

What’s on Microsoft’s New App Store Principles? Microsoft published the list of ten principles over on the Microsoft On the Issues Blog.

Attackers Are Able to Bypass Office365 MFA By using adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) phishing websites, malicious parties are able to bypass the multi-factor authentication (MFA) feature employed by Office365 users by creating a phony Office365 authentication page. In this process, attackers aim to obtain the victim’s session cookie via the deployment of a proxy server between the target and the website that is being spoofed. Essentially, the attackers are intercepting Office365 sign-in sessions to steal login information....
