Watch Dogs Creative Director Shares More Specific PC Requirements
We already know that Watch Dogs has some rather lofty system requirements for the PC version of the game. Earlier today, Jonathan Morin, the Creative Director for Watch Dogs, shared some more specific details on how the game will run on less than optimal hardware.
According to Morin, dual-cores CPUs will not be able to run Watch_Dogs (so it will be interesting to see how our simulated dual-core system will behave). Not only that, but the game may not even boot if PC gamers are... -

Report: Halo: The Master Chief Collection Includes HD Versions of Halo 1-4 on Xbox One
The Halo: The Master Chief Collection has been rumored through anonymous sources with Engadget. As you may expect from the name, the collection will include HD versions of Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo 4.
This is to build up towards the release of Halo 5: Guardians next year. So where are games like Halo: ODST and Halo: Reach? Well, those games aren't a part of Master Chief's main story so it wouldn't make much sense to include those in with the "Master... -

Responding to criticisms about the ambitious 2014 release window for The Division, developer Massive said that it felt like they were "punched in the face" when Ubisoft announced that extremely early date.
