AudioMob is a rewarded audio game monetization platform which aims to replace video adverts that pop up in mobile games with background audio adverts. They’ve just launched their open beta, after hosting a successful closed beta which attracted participation from some high-profile studios and global advertising brands. The advertising you see in free-to-play mobile games is usually the reason why said games are free-to-play in the first place. Whilst being necessary, these adverts can also be real annoying especially because of their intrusive nature....

Fallout: New Vegas is one of the post-apocalyptic RPG series’ most beloved installments. While any Fallout fan knows that the games take place after a nuclear war between the United States and China in the late 21st century, keeping track of the specifics of the Fallout timeline is no easy task.
