Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Tyra Banks' love for Australia In an interview with the Daily Mail, Banks revealed that she loves Sydney's charm and relaxed vibe, while unveiling her ice cream shop 'SMiZE & DREAM.' 'I was coming for about a year and a half and just fell in love with it,' she said. 'And I said, should we make this move? And here we are,' she said. 'I love Darling Harbour because of this park. Tumbalong Park is magical,' she said, before adding that even before she opened a shop here, she and her family would spend weekends over there. 'I have friends that live an hour and a half away, and on the weekends. They drive here just to go to the water and put their feet in with the kids,' she further continued, and expressed that there's a playground nearby for older and younger kids. Tyra Banks' favourite ice cream flavour... About Tyra's ice cream brand, she said it feels personal. When asked about her favourite scoop, she said while laughing, 'My favourite flavour is called Tyra's Favourite – very creative, isn't it?' The flavour is salted sweet cream with butter-roasted pecans and a thick, savoury caramel butter swirl. 'It's not your traditional ice cream taste – it has this surprising, rich sensation in the mouth,' she continued. Furthermore, she also dropped the crumbs about a potential collaboration with her fellow Australian friend.

And you just have to be ready for it.'

Is Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag Remake really in the works?
Image via Ubisoft. Is Ubisoft really working on Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag Remake? This is one of the most burning questions in the gaming community right now. Black Flag was one of the most popular games of the Assassin's Creed franchise. This was the first AC title to introduce open-world naval exploration, which fans really liked a lot. Set during the Golden Age of Piracy (1715) in the Caribbean Sea, with over 50 explorable locations like Havana, Nassau, and many more., this 2013 title won everyone's heart with its seafaring fighting scenes like rogue waves, carron barrages, rammings, and etc. as well. So, will it ever grace the modern gen consoles with improved visuals and gameplay? Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag: Is Ubisoft really working on it? As of now, Ubisoft has remained tight-lipped so far about the current state of Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag Remake. There might not be any official confirmation about this highly awaited title, but insiders and leakers have hinted that the developers are definitely working on it. These leaks and speculations haven't stopped yet, as a Twitter user named TheReallZephyrus has noted some activity by Ubisoft on the game's page on Valve's storefront. According to this user, Black Flag Remake is potentially getting updates on Steam regularly. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo The user also shared some screenshots which suggest that four micro trailers have been added to the game as well. These micro trailers are short clips which play automatically besides the details and listings when the Steam page of any game is opened. There is no way these changes are made for the 2013 version, so it might well be a sign of Black Flag Remake being in the works. There is further evidence of it in the form of some recent modifications of the game's Steam content packages on June 4 and 12. However, the details of those content packages are still unknown. The original Black Flag title sold over 15 million copies, making it one of the best-selling AC titles of all time. That proves how good this title actually was. However, this brilliant game was available only on older-gen consoles like PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and others. So, there is no doubt fans have been yearning for years to get this title on modern consoles, which will take the gameplay and visuals to newer heights with significant upgrades. That's why there is no reason for Ubisoft to not develop the remake of the game.
