It’s Friday (Friday, gotta get down on Friday) so that can only mean one thing, News Snatch! Huzzah! More bits and bobs from down the back of the internet that got passed over this week, starting with the single-player campaign intro video for the ridiculously named Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr.
Stats shared by online purveyors of smut and filth, YouPorn, show that the inaugural Overwatch League is stopping people from watching some hows-yer-father on their screens. During the first match of the League viewers on YouPorn dropped by 9% with around same loss of viewers occurring up until the third game. The site also saw lower traffic during the whole week of the event.
To their credit YouPorn are not being sore losers. “We are excited to find out who will win and be the first Overwatch League champions, receiving a trophy and a cool $1 million USD bonus,” they said. “Of course, we are also curious to see how you celebrate and will be keeping an eye on visits to the site before, during and after.”
Eww.
Viewing figures for the League have been huge, the opening day drew an impressive average audience per minute of 408,000, and more than 10 million viewers tuned in over the four-day period via Twitch, MLG, and Chinese streaming partners ZhanQi TV, NetEase CC, and Panda TV.
Not one, but two pretty screens from Shenmue III.

That YouPorn story is solid gold! Or is it just old, dried up solid spunk? Hard to say but it still made me giggle!
