  Microsoft Again Secures Timed Exclusives on Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare DLC

  Rumor: Project Beast is an Upcoming PS4 Exclusive by From Software

  Apparently, the latest hot rumor creating some buzz out there is that there are a handful of leaked shots taken from a trailer for a new game coming from From Software. The working title for the game is called Project Beast and a lot of what is shown in these images may remind you of a certain game franchise, also from From Software. Actually, it should remind you of two franchises from the studio, Dark Souls and Demon's Souls.

  Rumor: Nintendo to Reveal New Hardware at E3 2014

  There have now been multiple sites reporting on the same rumor, so here goes nothing. Allegedly, Nintendo is going to show off some "new hardware" at E3 2014 (that's this year).
  
  Now, this could literally mean anything from a new console, to a new gimmicky device (looking at you Vitality Sensor), to a new handheld, to a new update to an existing piece of hardware (XS3DSXL), to a new controller, to anything in between.
  
  This originally started when IGN kind o...

  Turtle Rock Fires Community Manager Josh Olin After Calling Donald Sterling "A Victim"

  Josh Olin, or as you may otherwise know him, JD_2020, was fired from Turtle Rock Studios today after remarks made on Twitter. Olin voiced his opinion on Twitter in which he said Donald Sterling was a victim.

  Wolfenstein: The New Order "Requires" an i7 CPU and 50GB of Hard Drive Space

  Earlier today, Bethesda released the "PC system requirements" for Wolfenstein: The New Order. Their labeling conventions are a bit askew, however, as while it does say "PC system requirements," these specs are more akin to the recommended specs.
  

  The system requirements are based on the game being a next-gen experience running at 60fps. These are the system requirements to deliver the PC game as it was intended to be experienced.
