description: Minecraft and Zelda combined in this new sandbox RPG. But is it worth playing?
encoded: Allow me to tell you a story. The year is 2010, and this humble journalist is a mere 14 years old. In school one day, a friend tells me they’ve found a new game they want us to play. It takes a bit of work to get it running, and it’s only in beta, but he thinks that it might already be one of the greatest games ever made. And so, my friend group and I set out to explore the strange, blocky biomes of Minecraft, and for sixteen years, we haven’t stopped playing. I tell you this so that you know just how important Minecraft is to me. It was the first game I truly fell in love with and the first game to consume my every waking moment. It’s safe to say I yearned for the mines. Like most Minecraft players, I’ve dabbled in mods and custom servers over the years, but I almost always found myself returning to vanilla Minecraft. Mods are as essential to the Minecraft experience for die-hard players as the core gameplay loop itself. While the core game has remained faithful to its initial idea, mods and custom servers have continued to iterate on the game to provide all-new and exciting experiences. In other words, if you like vanilla Minecraft, then you’re covered, and if you want something new or a bit more difficult, then mods or custom servers are the way to go. Every so often, that same friend who got us all into Minecraft would return with a new mod they wanted us to try, and we’d play for a while only to return to the comforting pastures of the classic game. We’d even venture beyond Minecraft itself and try other sandbox games that promise, as many do, to be the ‘next Minecraft’. Of course, those promises are often as empty as your inventory after being taken out by a creeper. This brings me to Hytale, a new sandbox RPG that, on paper, appears to be another such game. Hytale, launched back in 2015 on the Hypixel Minecraft server and became a sensation. Now, over a decade later and after weathering a torturous development cycle that included cancellations, sprawling ambi…

description: In Minecraft, an Eye of Ender lets you open End Portals to the Ender Dragon!
encoded: If you’re trying to locate strongholds in Minecraft so that you can open End Portals and come face to face with the Ender Dragon, you’ll need to make yourself at least one Eye of Ender in order to get started on that mission. There are two crafting ingredients that you’ll need if you want to make an Eye of Ender - you’ll need one Blaze Powder and one Ender Pearl. It’s worth noting nice and early that you’ll need 12 Eyes of Ender in order to open a portal. If you’re wondering where to find those ingredients, how to turn them into an Eye of Ender, and exactly what an Eye of Ender does, read on for our handy guide! How do you get an Eye of Ender in Minecraft? If you want to make an Eye of Ender, you’ll have to do some crafting - and you’ll need two items in your inventory in order to achieve your goal. First, you’ll need to find some Blaze Powder, which is fairly easy to do - when you kill Blaze mobs, they drop Blaze Rods, which you can turn into Blaze Powder simply by dropping said rods into the middle of the crafting square. Next, you’ll need to get some Ender Pearls - when you kill an Enderman, there’s a good chance they’ll drop an Ender Pearl, so it shouldn’t take you too long to find one. And now that you’ve got those two ingredients, you can move on to the crafting recipe! View Riddle on the source website Minecraft Eye of Ender crafting recipe In your crafting square, drop the Ender Pearl into the middle square and the Blaze Powder in the square to its left. Combine those two items and you’ve made yourself an Eye of Ender! Take a look at the image below if you need some extra help. What can you do with an Eye of Ender in Minecraft? As you traverse the Overworld, your Eye of Ender will help you locate strongholds and the End Portals within them - simply hold your Eye of Ender and press the ‘use’ button, and it will show you the direction in which to travel.

Currently 12 seasons in, the gang are going stronger than ever and are about to become one of the longest running sitcoms American TV history. All seasons of the show are available on Netflix now.

description: We break down the history and powers of Thanos’s prized gems
encoded: At the heart of the first three phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been the six gems known as Infinity Stones. Each stone holds a particular power and through the last decade of Marvel movies, various characters have attempted to wield them to enact terrible destruction upon the universe. As Benicio Del Toro’s character The Collector says: “Before creation itself, there were six singularities. Then the universe exploded into existence, and the remnants of these systems were forged into concentrated ingots… Infinity Stones.” In Avengers: Infinity War big bad Thanos successfully acquired all six stones in order to assemble his Infinity Gauntlet, providing him with the ability to control all reality and finally enact his plan to wipe out half the galaxy. Yep, spoiler alert – he pulled it off. What can Captain Marvel tell us about the plot of Avengers: Endgame? Samuel L Jackson finally clears up the biggest mystery from Avengers: Infinity War Before all that, though, the stones appeared multiple times in varying ways throughout the many movies in the MCU, and it’s easy to lose track of which stone does what and where they came from. So, we thought we’d catch you up with everything you need to know about the Infinity Stones ahead of the Avengers' final attempt to wrest them back from Thanos in Avengers: Endgame.

Her travels with William took up most of the first series, but now she has her freedom and a thirst for revenge - so what does she have planned? What else has Evan Rachel Wood been in? Rachel Wood starred in the 2008 drama The Wrestler directed by Darren Aronofsky, where she played embittered wrestler Mickey Rourke’s daughter.

description: With Infinity War set to make some seismic changes, what will happen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe after the movie?
encoded: Believe it or not, it’s been 10 years since Iron Man first introduced the idea of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to the world. What's followed in the subsequent decade has been an ambitious, interconnected franchise of films on an unprecedented scale. The MCU has less in common with huge movie franchises like Star Trek or Harry Potter and more in common with serialised TV like Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad, using the budget and the spectacle of film to create a narrative one movie or episode at a time. By that logic, new sequel Avengers: Infinity War is like the season finale to these first phases of the MCU, and will spark a seismic shift in the superhero film series that will continue beyond 2019's mysteriously untitled Avengers 4. Avengers: Infinity War directors explain how they chose Stan Lee’s cameo Avengers: Infinity War’s post-credits scene explained Avengers: Infinity War directors say that missing characters could play a bigger part in the sequel With that in mind, we thought we’d speculate on the state of the world post-Infinity War, taking a look at the characters, movies and storylines Marvel will likely look to in order to build phase 4 of their cinematic universe.

We know that the most immediate film set for release after Infinity War is Ant-Man and the Wasp, with the follow-up to the Paul Rudd-starring Ant-Man seeing Evangeline Lilly’s Hope Van Dyne promoted to title character. Up to this point Rudd’s Ant-Man has been conspicuously absent from the Infinity War marketing and has gone unmentioned by the directors.

encoded: When Lost Voice Guy took to the Britain's Got Talent stage, he delivered one of the most hilarious stand-up routines the show has ever seen. But what made comedian Lee Ridley's performance so special is the fact that he can't speak. Everything you need to know about Britain’s Got Talent 2018 How to get tickets for Britain’s Got Talent 2018 The Newcastle-based comic performs through the use of a speech synthesiser and David Walliams said his performance was "one of the best stand-up routines I've seen – let alone on this show". Forget Walliams, though – Ridley has the rare honour of having featured two weeks running in Radio Times magazine's radio choices section, thanks to his Radio 4 comedy Ability "about a man with cerebral palsy, who finds it hard to get served in pubs because he already looks drunk and whose inner voice is pure Geordie, while his spoken voice sounds just like Stephen Hawking". So who is Lee Ridley, and what else do you need to know about him? Who is Lee Ridley? The 37 year-old is from Consett near Newcastle and was diagnosed with cerebral palsy when he was six months old. Due to complications resulting from his disability, Ridley has been unable to speak for over 30 years. In order to perform, Ridley uses a speech synthesiser upon which he programs his material before selecting certain lines based on audience reaction. According to an interview with The Guardian, Ridley saw comedian Ross Noble performing a large majority of his set doing an impression of Stephen Hawking. After the show Ridley, through his voice synthesiser, challenged Noble asking: "Do you want to see who can do the best Stephen Hawking impersonation?" View oEmbed on the source website The joke made Noble laugh and he incorporated the story into his own routine; a thrill for Ridley who was a big fan of the comedian. Ridley soon began performing stand-up sets in Sunderland before heading to the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh in 2013. A journalism graduate, Ridley used to work as Su…

In order to be in with a chance of landing tickets you should head over to Applause Store where you can sign up to a mailing list to be notified when the tickets become available. The best part is that the tickets themselves are free and audiences are selected on a first come, first served basis so make sure you arrive early on the day to make sure you land a seat behind the judges. Applause also notes that they do over-distribute tickets to account for "no shows" so there’s no guarantee of landing a seat. But it doesn't sound like you're going to want to miss it. If Britain's Got More Talent host Stephen Mulhern is to be believed, we’re in for a great series. When are Britain's Got Talent's live shows? Although BGT returns to ITV on Saturday 14th May, these auditions have already been filmed.

Innocent focuses on the character of David Collins, played by Line of Duty actor Lee Ingleby, who was convicted of the murder of his wife Tara despite protesting his innocence.

Netflix drama 13 Reasons Why managed it, setting the internet alight in 2017 when its story of high school anxiety and suicide struck a chord with viewers. With season two about to drop online any time now, check out the other teen movies and TV shows that you need to watch first... New on Netflix in May 2018 The Breakfast Club When it comes to representing the teenage experience, John Hughes is the master. The late director’s films have become synonymous with being a high school kid. His movies come and go on Netflix, with Ferris Bueller's Day Off recently removed. But The Breakfast Club is still there. Arguably the director’s greatest and most loved work, its complex exploration of the drama and pressures of teenage life are timeless and there’s never been a better time to explore the film through modern eyes. One thing’s for sure, we won’t forget about this one. Watch on Netflix Riverdale When the announcement was made that a dark, brooding drama based on the Archie comics was getting made, many laughed at the idea. Riverdale turned the tables on everybody with its tale of murder and mystery. The show has the same soap-like qualities as Twin Peaks but all filtered through the lens of modern teen movies, creating something that feels fascinating, gripping and, above all, completely addictive.

Starring a young Matthew McConaughey in a role he was born to play, Linklater’s movie went on to leave an indelible mark on 90s culture with its rock and roll soundtrack and gonzo dialogue. Watch o…
