The American, a finalist at the US Open two years ago, was a break down in each set but fought back to erase the deficits on the two occasions Kuznetsova looked to close out on serve.

While we don’t know too much about Microsoft or Sony’s plans so far, there is a widely held belief — substantiated by several cooperating rumors — that suggests Kinect 2.0 is on its way.

UK-based site CVG has the scoop, and claims that a source close to the situation has not seen the kits in person, but they have been provided enough information to suggest several developers are privy to the next phase in Microsoft’s motion control initiative....

Prior to the announcement, some fans believed Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory to be the next step in the KH story, with Kairi as the protagonist. However, it appears as though the game is a rhythm game instead, not unlike Square Enix’s Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy. Based on the trailer, it looks as though Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory will mainly be retelling the Kingdom Hearts franchise’s sprawling, complicated story, with Sora, Donald, and Goofy completing rhythm mini-games along the way....

The list details every single song that’s confirmed to be available in Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory so far. The music is a motley of exactly 143 tracks that have been pulled from every Kingdom Hearts title released up until this point, save for Kingdom Hearts Union Cross and Kingdom Hearts Dark Road, which is understandable. Union Cross’s only original piece is a rendition of Dearly Beloved, and Dark Road technically isn’t a part of the Dark Seeker saga, which Melody of Memory focuses on....

The series is no stranger to bringing in some big names to play some of its original characters, such as Mark Hamill (AKA Luke Skywalker) as Master Eraqus and the late Christopher Lee, who voiced Ansem the Wise in Kingdom Hearts 2.

Many fans had assumed that Hikaru’s latest track, Don’t Think Twice (titled Chikai in Japanese), would be Kingdom Hearts 3’s main theme, since it has been used frequently in almost every trailer for the title but, as it turns out, that’s not the case and it will serve as the ending theme. The new song titled Face My Fears is planned to have both English and Japanese versions and will be released alongside Don’t Think Twice (Chikai is already available for purchase on iTunes) on January 18th 2019 - just a week or so before the game’s official release....
