French Counter-Strike team re-sign star French player, celebrate by sticking him on a golden gun-throne in front of the Eiffel Tower because they’re French-

French esports club Team Vitality has announced that its star Counter-Strike player Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, who helped the team win the last-ever CS:GO Major, has re-signed to stay with the Parisians until 2026. And boy is Vitality excited about the news.

The outfit decided that only one thing would do for this announcement. Zywoo is French and the king of the AWP-ers, Vitality is a French esports organisation, and arguably the team’s finest moment was winning the Paris Major last May.

Vitality therefore announced the player’s new contract by making him sit on a golden throne made out of Counter-Strike guns, with the Eiffel tower as a backdrop.

Vitality later posted a tribute video to the player:

The team later posted some close-up shots of the throne itself. The AWP appropriately enough is the throne’s highest point, while Zywoo also appears to have been granted a crown made of bullets. I’m not sure what the golden skulls are all about. The whole thing looks like someone’s 3D printed a bunch of gun models and spray painted it gold, but hey: do you have a golden throne made of Counter-Strike guns? Thought not.

“Very proud to extend with Team Vitality and continue to wear these colours,” said Zywoo. “Thank you everyone for your support all these years. Eyes on the future now, and a lot of trophies in sight with this amazing team and fans.”

Vitality knows exactly what it thinks of Zywoo re-signing: “the best player stays in Paris.” Tres bien. As well as the throne, Vitality also unfurled a giant banner from the Eiffel Tower itself and took out billboard ads in Paris with some enthusiastic Zywoo stats: “Won 10 S-tier titles, Major Winner, 2 Times Best HLTV Player of the Year, 18 MVP Awards.”

When it comes to Counter-Strike 2, Team Vitality has made itself the team to beat. There will be no shortage of challengers but, in holding on to its most-prized asset, the French champions have made what they’ll hope is a major statement of intent. As for the photo opp… well, at least they didn’t make Zywoo hold up a baguette like it’s an AWP.

Air Twister Review – Repetitious Fantasy

Yu Suzuki has been making games longer than most of us have been playing them. Today he is best known as the creator of Shenmue, but he has a long history of innovating in arcades with titles like 1985’s Space Harrier and the Virtua Fighter series. Air Twister on Apple Arcade represents a return to his arcade origins while also taking some lore and story lessons learned from Shenmue. But overall, the experience ends up feeling repetitive without being particularly rewarding.

Air Twister begins strong with playable protagonist Princess Arch responding to an alien invasion threat on her home planet. She soars through the air alongside gigantic swans flying past massive mushrooms to a soundtrack from dutch composer Valensia that truly sounds like nothing I’ve hear…

Banishers- Ghosts Of New Eden Review – Ghostbusters

It can’t be a coincidence that Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is launching just a day before Valentine’s Day. As its title suggests, the latest game from Life is Strange developer Don’t Nod is brimming with ghost hunting and spooky happenings. Yet, at its core, it’s also a surprisingly tender love story about life, death, and sacrifice. This isn’t the most well-trodden path for an action-RPG, and that’s just one of a few key areas where Banishers is atypical for its genre. Between outbursts of stiff, run-of-the-mill action, it’s the quieter moments where the game comes into its own. Like Vampyr, one of the studio’s previous games, delving into various characters’ lives and making tough choices with far-reaching consequences are what make the game memorable.
