In Other News – 07 August 2015

Feline-Friday

Holy crap, what a week. We’re all feeling the effects of Gamescom, but none so more than Sandy and Martha who have reported that a Capcom exec thought their T-Virus shuffling dead cosplay was spot-on. They’ll be flying back soon enough, ready to spill the beans on more games and lament the lack of Kolsch beer in this country. Poor sods.

In Other News: Battlefield 4 gets sneaky, Street Fighter V is going to be the number one esport, Time’s shockingly stupid VR cover story and from Russia with cosplay love.

Here’s the news that we didn’t post today, because we were too busy making up excuses to get out of the office early for the long weekend. IT’S COMING RIGHT FOR US!

    Bought Battlefield 4 on Tuesday.

    Must say so far It’s really polished now, although contemplating getting premium at R199

      no way. I push my cat out of the way. He can go lie on another part of the bed, or get under the covers himself if it s cold.

    So I wasn’t that interested in Mafia III after loving the first game and being bored to tears with the second but that is a damn intriguing trailer.
    Also, tried Xbone streaming to PC this weekend and was really impressed… no really.
