Christian Post Report – Two pieces of good news recently came out for fans of the multiplayer first person shooter video game “Titanfall” as the game celebrates its one year anniversary.

The first piece of good news is that the game’s downloadable content or DLC which used to be available only for paid season pass holders is now totally free for both Xbox and PC players. The second piece of good news is that the game’s developers have confirmed that “Titanfall 2” is in development for release on multiple platforms.

Since “Titanfall” first came out in March 2014, both free and paid downloadable content was made available by Respawn, the game developers. Paid content can be had at a discount through the purchase of a season pass, and this season pass entitles the user to three expansion packs, “Expedition,” “Frontier’s Edge,” and “IMC Rising.” With this new announcement, even gamers who have yet to buy the game can opt to pick up the expansion packs at a later date after their purchase. The free offer was initially announced for the Xbox consoles only, but in later reports, DLC for the PC version was included.

The DLC expansion packs will provide the players with new maps which, according to a report in Forbes, will provide “a much different game overall than the Titanfall they probably played at launch.” When the game first came out, it received high marks from critics but after a while, the lack of new content, having no “real campaign mode and a scarce handful of multiplayer modes” bored some players who eventually gave up playing, still according to the report. One of the game’s saving graces is the constant updating of content by the developer.

This strategy of making available content that is free is said to help revive interest in the game. This will be important when Respawn again releases the game’s sequel “Titanfall 2” in the near future. The report expects the new game to be infinitely better than the first one. The developers will likely incorporate in “Titanfall 2” the new additions in the first game and some more surprises. If they listened to earlier complaints, they will likely add a campaign in the new game for a different playing experience.

“Titanfall’s” gameplay involves the players fighting as “free-running foot soldier pilots who control mech-style exoskeletons or “Titans.”

Christian Post Report – Austin St. John, the original actor behind the Red Power Ranger suit, is returning to Hollywood after two decades away to star in a sci-fi thriller, “Survival’s End.”

Titled “I Feel the Earth Move,” spoiler reports indicated that fans will watch the Grey medical staff doing what they do best while managing to stay in focus as an earthquake hits the area.

A synopsis for tonight’s segment was posted on The Futon Critic and it says that Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital will be shaken by a strong earthquake. As the onslaught of frightening seismic waves hit the medical establishment, Maggie (Kelly McCreary) will be trapped in an elevator which would threaten Meredith’s (Elllen Pompeo) long streak of successful surgeries.

Regardless of the situation, viewers might already know how determine Meredith is when it comes to maintaining her integrity as a medical professional.

The rest of Seattle will also be afflicted by the destructive natural calamity, sending them into panic. The official promo trailer teases a distraught 11-year-old boy calling the hospital for help when he found his mother lying unconscious.

ABC’s “Scandal” Season 4

Christian Post Report – Set with just the right blend of suspense, intrigue and drama, fans have been looking forward for this week’s airing of the hit ABC TV series “Scandal” Season 4 with episode titled “The Testimony of Diego Munoz.”

After the rather moving episode from last week featuring the death of a black teenager from the hands of a white police officer, tonight’s segment will tackle on an information delivered by a “surprise visitor.”

An official synopsis was posted on The Futon Critic and it points out that a surprise visitor will catch David Rosen (Joshua Malina) quite off guard.

This mysterious visitor claims to have “insider information” about the B613 which could have the potential to bring down the White House as well as destroy Olivia’s (Kerry Washington) Pope & Associates.

From the looks of it, something from the gladiators’ past will be coming back to haunt them. What exactly is this information that this visitor holds against Pope and the U.S.? And what connection does this person has with the characters?

In related “Scandal” news, avid followers of the show were caught surprised when the grieving Mellie Grant announced that she is now setting her eyes to take over the Presidential seat.

Speaking with TV Guide (via Ecumenical News), actress Bellamy Young admits she was quite surprised with the development of her storyline.

“I never could’ve imagined when the season started that we would go down this path,” Young informed the publication. “That’s the glory of Shonda [Rhimes] and our wonderful writers. But I think we needed her [grieving]. It was honest in a way she’s never been. She usually put protocol above everything. I think that was a real breakthrough moment for her.”

“She was just honest. I think that allowed her to go on the balcony and tell Fitz [Tony Goldwyn], ‘I wanna be president of the United States. I wanna run the world.’ That sort of honesty couldn’t have happened without being forged in that horrible pain and fire,” the actress continued.

“Scandal” Season 4 airs this Thursday, March 12 with “The Testimony of Diego Munoz” at 9 p.m. on ABC.

Christian Post Report – Poised to offer more doses of intrigue, sword action and drama, History Channel’s hit historical TV series “Vikings” will air this week with yet another exciting episode on its brand new Season 3.

Entitled “Scarred,” tonight’s segment will voice out the questions that fans have all been wondering about: What is exactly is Ragnar’s (Travis Fimmel) plan when he struck an alliance with the Christians?

Perhaps the fitting person to do this is the eccentric yet dangerously cunning Floki (Gustaf Skarsgard). Kattegat’s renowned boat builder and the King’s close friend was furious with the alliance made between the Vikings and King Ecbert (Linus Roache) which, as followers of the show remembered, killed many of his countrymen.

Floki was also angered when he found out Athestan’s (George Blagden) role in Ragnar’s affinity with the Anglo-Saxons.

This issue will further be discussed in “Scarred” as the recently released sneak peek featured Rollo (Clive Standen) confronting his King brother about his decisions to forge allegiance with the English.

“Floki says you have betrayed our gods to serve a Christian king and a Christian god,” Rollo said.

“Unlike Floki,” the wise leader calmly replied. “I do not think I speak for the gods. All I know is my desires and ambitions for my people. It never changed.”

Rollo listened intently to the Kattegat leader as he continued: “Now that I am a king, I must strive to bring them about.”

“Floki threatens me with Odin. But I will not be ashamed to meet the god, face to face,” Ragnar declared.

Find out more about the plight of the farmer who turned himself King when “Vikings” airs this Thursday, March 12 at 10 p.m. on History Channel.

Director Jack Osbourne (C) poses with his mother Sharon Osbourne (R) and his sister Kelly Osbourne at a private preview of the documentary “God Bless Ozzy Osbourne” at the Arclight Cinerama Dome in Hollywood, California August 22, 2011.

Christian Post Report – Kelly Osbourne opened up for the first time since her controversial exit from E!’s fashion talk show series “Fashion Police” on Monday.

Appearing and co-hosting for her mother Sharon Osbourne’s show “The Talk,” the singer speaks about her experience being with the celebrity fashion dissection series and her plans for her future.

“You know what, it was the five best working years of my life. I am so grateful for the experience – working with Joan Rivers for five years was incredible. I learned so much and I’m excited for my future. I want to try new things,” the 30-year-old daughter of Ozzy Osbourne told SMN Weekly.

The TV personality meanwhile admits getting devastated with the untimely death of show’s co-host and comedian Joan Rivers. Despite the grieving, Osbourne continues to liven up the show but in an unexpected incident, things changed.

Co-panelist Giuliana Rancic blurted out what seems to be an unpleasant comment over Zendaya Coleman’s hairstyle worn at the Oscars saying that the dreadlocks “probably smelled of weed and patchouli oil.”

The offhanded remark sparked an aggressive response from the Disney actress, who went to her social media to voice her reactions.

Right after the segment, Osbourne posted on her Twitter account to voice out her take on the issue.

“I DID NOT MAKE THE WEED COMMENT. I DO NOT CONDONE RACISM SO AS A RSULT OF THIS IM SERIOUSLY QUESTIONING STAYING ON THE SHOW!” her tweet read.

Things were eventually settled between Rancic and Coleman when the former offer her apologies.

Despite silence from the producers, rumors circulating indicated that Osbourne’s seat might be filled by other popular personalities including Khloe Kardashian, Naya Rivera of “Glee,” Amber Rose or “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star NeNe Leakes.

Mary Mary’s Tina Campbell

Christian Post Report – Gospel singer and “Mary Mary” reality television star Tina Campbell recently acknowledged her ability to overcome marital problems, including her own “crazy” and “violent” behavior.

A recent episode of “Mary Mary” revealed that Campbell had riddled husband Teddy Campbell’s car with bullets in a fit of anger over his multiple extra-marital affairs. Days after the footage aired, Campbell addressed her behavior during her marital woes. The singer, who is one half of the Gospel duo Mary Mary along with her sister Erica, spoke with New York Gospel radio station WLIB about “angry,” “crazy” and “violent” reactions before turning to God for direction on her marriage.

“What men think is impossible, with God, all things are possible,” Tina explained. “My situation was busted, every other week I finding about someone else – that was devastating. I can sit here and smile because I just want to be happy because it’s a choice. I did mad, I did frustrated, I did angry, I did bitter, I did crazy, I did violent, I did all of that, and I remained miserable. But when I turned to God and made a conscious effort to pursue forgiving and letting go, that’s where I found my hope.”

Later on, the gospel music star offered an apology for past grievances against other people around her.

“I was just ignorant, just talking to people all mean, inconsiderate, [and] just unkind – that is not reflecting God’s love,” the singer said through tears during the videotaped interview.

“You never know what kind of loads people are carrying and you’re supposed to be a person of God and you laughing at somebody…” Campbell continued. “We discriminate, we act funny, we elevate – I was ignorant like that and I take full on ownership of what I did and to everyone, I’m sorry, I did not reflect God’s love.”

Meanwhile, Campbell’s emotional outburst and the destruction of her husband’s car left many “Mary Mary” fans shocked this week. The damages to Terry Campbell’s car due to the bullet holes was featured in a trailer for season four of the WE tv series.

“We had some days that were really bad, and the car is a clear indication of a very bad day,” Terry Campbell narrates during the clip. “It was my car and she thought I could have been riding around town with another woman in the car, which wasn’t the case. My wife, in her pain, wanted to hurt me.”

Kurt Busch has been suspended by NASCAR

Christian Post Report – Kurt Busch has been reinstated by NASCAR and given a waiver to be eligible for the Chase for the Championship.

Under NASCAR rules drivers must run in all the races to be eligible, but waivers have been granted in the past. Busch will need to be in the top 30 in points (and win a race or be in the top 12 in points) to be eligible under regular rules. That is something of a long shot given the fact he has missed three races while dealing with the fallout from his legal issues in the State of Delaware.

Chevrolet also ended their suspension of the driver and Stewart-Haas Racing has publically stated Busch will be back in the #41 car this weekend at Phoenix International Race way.

“As we stated last week, the elimination of the possibility of criminal charges removed a significant impediment to Kurt Busch’s return to full status as a NASCAR member,” NASCAR stated. “As we stated last week, the elimination of the possibility of criminal charges removed a significant impediment to Kurt Busch’s return to full status as a NASCAR member.”

“We therefore have decided to move him to indefinite probation and waive the Chase requirement. He has fully complied with our reinstatement program during his suspension and the health care expert who conducted his evaluation recommended his immediate return,” they continued.

“We appreciate the steps Kurt Busch has made while following NASCAR’s process for reinstatement,” Joe Custer, Executive Vice President of SHR, stated. “He has taken this path seriously, which allowed him to return to our race team. With his reinstatement and the conclusion by the Delaware Attorney General to not file charges, our focus is on the future.”

SHR as a team has had a lot of distractions since last fall with the Busch situation and the tragedy involving co-owner Tony Stewart. Now the team looks to put those things behind them and get back to racing. Teammate Kevin Harvick won the most recent Sprint Cup Series race in Las Vegas and the team will be looking to run strong again this week in Phoenix.

Bruce Jenner’s Transgender Docu-Series Put on Hold

Christian Post Report – Earlier this year, it looked as though Bruce Jenner’s planned docu-series for E!, which will chronicle his transition from male to female, was going full steam ahead. Now, Jenner has stopped production and the future of the show is unclear.

“Bruce’s primary goal is to bring awareness to this issue in order to help others [in the transgender community],” said a source to TMZ. “He is not sure that E! and a reality show is the best format to do that.”

The 65-year old former Olympian “wants this to be taken seriously so that [his situation] can have the most positive impact on society’s perception of the transgender community,” the insider added.

Jenner, the former Olympian and former husband of Kris Jenner, matriarch of the Kardashian/Jenner clan, has been heavily targeted by the tabloid press, which has long speculated he’s on the verge of revealing he is transgender. Jenner has not commented on the rumors, but his mother confirmed his gender transition in remarks to the Associated Press last month.

“I am at peace with what he is and what he’s doing,” said Esther Jenner.

Meanwhile, though the docu-series has been put on hold for the moment, ABC News is looking to air its Diane Sawyer interview with Jenner by next month. According to Deadline, plans for that special have changed slightly, in light of Jenner’s recent car accident in which a person was killed and seven injured.

According to Deadline’s sources, the wreck in Malibu will be covered by ABC News when Sawyer interviews Jenner about his transition.
