    Mirror's Edge Catalyst just announced, and will be hitting PC, PS4, and XB1 sometime in 2016, developed by DICE, just like the original. This is planned, or said to be, a reboot of the series, rather than being Mirror's Edge 2 which was announced at E3 a while back. Press release...

    Dark Souls 3 Leaked Info (Rumour)

    The Know, a Gaming channel affiliated with RoosterTeeth, have unveiled new information about the potential surprise announcement of Dark Souls 3 at E3 this year. Their credibility is questionable after some Silent Hills 'leaks' which turned out to be very false (like the demo being Xbox One...

    Fallout 4: "Please Stand by"

    http://fallout4.com/ And a countdown! So, I've been studying this information for quite a while now, suffering so that you don't have to, and I believe this to be Fallout 4. My first clue was the website being called fallout4.com which, if you look at it, looks a bit like Fallout 4 except...

    Jared Leto as Joker

    So, that's Leto as the new Joker! The image was released yesterday I think and is the first look at him, and we'll be seeing him in the Suicide Squad movie. Thoughts? He looks like something out of a nightmare, pretty deranged and scary. Can't wait to see him in action but, on pure aesthetic...

    Early Start/Early Finish, or Late Start/Late Finish?

    Inspired from school discussion in shoutbox, but I guess it applies to work too. So in regards to school, work, or whatever, would you rather have an early morning start and then finish earlier in the afternoon, or a later start in the morning, for more of a lie-in, but finish later in the day too?

    Porn Stars Before & After Make-up

    Just something interesting I saw a little while ago and thought I'd post up here; basically a load of porn-stars, god bless them, agreed to have their photos taken before and after their make-up was applied and the transformations are pretty incredible. Some don't look like the same person at...

    Chris Pratt to be Indiana Jones?

    Deadline, via NeoGAF Thoughts on this potential casting? Very early rumour but can still discuss it! Personally, I'd say hell yeah! Do love Chris Pratt but fangirl aside I think he could do a really good job as Indy, I think it'd fit quite well. A lot of people on GAF were saying Bradley...

    Do you name your stuff?

    Stuff! Inanimate objects you own. For example I am currently writing this using Don, my PC. He was so named because he's an absolute Don! And the sofa in the living room is Steph. Anyone else give names to their stuff? :) Or am I spending the night alone in crazy corner?

    Windows Holographic & Microsoft HoloLens

    Announced on stream. Yes, this is really a thing. NASA had a hand in it, too. I'm not exactly clued up on this kind of technology, but it works as a mixture of lots of different things all working in conjunction with one another; holograms are created and the headset is used to see...

    Does Size Matter?

    lol sex joke Moving on, the question at hand is a simple one; does the size of a videogame matter to you? Size referring to just the scale of the explorable game world. For me, I do like big games, and it does actually matter to me. It's not a 100% way to make a good game, and it's arguably...

    Breath of the Wild Not Link in Zelda Wii U? "No One Explicitly Said That That Was Link"

    VentureBeat, via NeoGAF So Aonuma is suggesting that perhaps that isn't Link? I've seen some minor divide on the character's appearance in that Wii U Zelda teaser trailer. But is Aonuma just being a bit of a tease with this comment, maybe referencing it's place in a new timeline where that...

    Rare to Make New Conker??!

    So, Conker on the N64 was one of my favourite games on the system. Let it be known. Rare in recent years has pretty much become an exclusive Kinect developer, much to people's disappointment.

    Can You Enjoy a Spoilt Story?

    Last Life; X0 or X1?

    So this was a funny thread on GAF that I am stealing. Lots of games have a Lives system, especially older games. But when you are on your last life, i.e. the next time you die will be game over, should the lives show as x0 or x1? Which is better? :) vs
