Mario gets inserted into everything, and if that triggered any dirty thoughts in your head you should be ashamed of yourself. What would your mother think! It's a fact, though, with the Italian one finding himself karting, 'footballing', 'Olympicing', and, of course, golfing.
The genre - which was invented by Tiger Woods in the nineties and then popularised thanks to EA - hasn't evolved in years, but given that no one (including me) has any new ideas means it's hard to criticise it. It's not Mario Golf's job to do that either, and what has been presented here is actually pretty...
Process took longer than DICE intended, but wanted to ensure it was done right.
"We have invested in new hardware to resolve this issue and deployed new higher-performance servers this week," wrote Karl Magnus Troedsson, DICE VP & GM. "In preparation, we conducted a significant amount of testing before installing the new servers to ensure they would correct the issue. We are already seeing performance improvement with 64-player matches and expect this to continue.
"While the process took longer than we would've liked, we wanted to be 100% sure it was done right and that the long-term solution was properly in place."
There are three different Alliances within The Elder Scrolls Online, each having different races within.
Daggerfall Covenant
The Daggerfall Covenant is based in Northwest Tamriel and consists of three races: the Breton, the Redguard and Orcs, all under the rule of High King Emeric.
Breton
The Bretons of High Rock are blessed with a natural grasp of magic, thanks to the Elven blood that runs through their veins. Bretons are known for their craftsmanship, skills as merchants and wizardry. Bretons are also gifted at swordplay and diplomacy.

By now we should be used to the constant cycle of PR fluff, unrepresentative demos and bullshots. So why are some of us still falling for it?
As you probably know by now, the PC version of Dark Souls 2 is one of the best games ever, made better. Frame rates and resolutions are naturally improved, and on the whole it's that little bit more impressive than it already was. If you have a PC that'll run it, some money, and too much time on your hands, then get out there and buy it.
It's a great game. It is, however, nowhere near as impressive as it could, and to some people, should have been. I'm referring to the now-infamous lighting engine that never actually made it to the final code. Upon the console release, some...
Microsoft confirms feature after months working with Mojang.
"After months of teaming up with Mojang, we can confirm that Minecraft X360 Edition will save transfer to Xbox One Edition," Tweeted Phil Spencer, corporate VP, Microsoft Game Studios. "More news soon! "
The Xbox One Edition remains without a confirmed release date.
Earlier this week it was confirmed by Mojang that it hopes to enable save transfers from the PS3 Edition to the PS4 Edition, though it's still working out how it'll work on PS Vita.
A new trailer, which you can see below, confirmed the date.

Expect to see more on the game at E3 in a few weeks.
A beginner’s guide to Dark Souls 2’s healing mechanics.
It’s important to understand the distinction between the two, especially in the early part of the game, where you lack sufficient Estus Flasks to last very long.
Estus Flasks
Estus Flasks work in much the same way as they did in Dark Souls. The key difference is that you have to earn more flasks by discovering additional Estus Flask Shards hidden throughout the world. The first shard is found in Majula, check out our guide to find out where it is.
Estus Flask Shards must be taken to the Emerald Herald in Majula in order to obtain a new Estus Flask....
In the game up to 30 players take part in matches filled with sieges and magical battles.

Following the launch of the Xbox One Titanfall bundle for £399, many retailers slashed the price to only £349, but the likes of Amazon, Tesco and Asda have now reverted to pre-cut pricing.
Whilst some retailers such as Dabs and Overclockers UK have had what appears to be stock clearances, with limited stock at low prices, the current best value bundle is at GAME.
GAME.co.uk is offering a £409.99 Titanfall bundle which also includes Call of Duty: Ghosts and a choice of Dead Rising 3, Ryse: Son of Rome, Forza 5 or Kinect Sports Rivals.
Sweeney confirmed that Epic is working on sandbox survival/base builder Fortnite and two other games. One is a mobile game, and the other a high-end next generation title some way from seeing the light of day.
"It's going to push next generation graphics as you'd always expect Epic to do," explained Sweeney.
Whilst Epic's in-house tentpole release may be years off, we'll see plenty of Unreal Engine 4 powered games as we move further into the new generation.
"There's a lot [of games] on the way and a large number of them haven't been announced," he said....
Will the game be revealed at E3 in a matter of weeks?
"Square Enix's corporate domain registrar registered a Just Cause 3 domain this week. Guess we'll see that at E3," he Tweeted.
A reveal for Just Cause 3 is more a case of when not if, with the LinkedIn profile of Avalanche Studios boss Christofer Sundberg stating the team is working on an "unnanounced sandbox action game" which is a "new instalment in a very well-known game series".
The profile adds: "The game is being developed at Avalanche Studios New York studio and is scheduled for completion in June 2015 for next generation console platforms."
The game's visuals are already greatly improved and this is just the start.
Without going into the fine details, the tool enables downsampling which renders the game at an ultra high resolution and is then scaled down to the resolution of your display. The end result is a much sharper image than you'd get by simply outputting at your display's native resolution.
In addition there's the ability to modify textures, and tweak in-game effects and post-processing, which are already delivering impressive results.
VideoGamer.com Analysis
Given the game's only just arrived for PC this is a very promising start for the modding scene.
