    The Dead Island MOBA is Shutting Down Next Month

    First off, there is a Dead Island MOBA. It is called Dead Island: Epidemic and I probably mentioned it ages ago here, or maybe I didn't. Whatever the coverage was, one thing is for certain: Deep Silver is closing down the game next month.

    Apple TV to Entice Even More Casual Gamers?

    As you may have heard, Apple made an announcement earlier in the month that had more to do with the latest iPhone designs and upgrades. While those changes are indeed coming to their mobile lineup, they're also looking to make a proper entry in the gaming sphere. The new Apple TV will be available for a mere $150 (for the 32GB model) and aims to provide users with another gaming option that doesn't come from the Big 3 (Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo).

    Five Nights at Freddy's World is an RPG, No Horror

    There's a new Five Nights at Freddy's game coming. The weird thing, is that it won't be a horror game. Instead it will be called FNAF World and will be an RPG where you form a party from the cast of characters you encountered in the other games. I... uh... sure, ok.
