It’s Monday! Who’s happy about that? Nobody? No? Okay then. so you’ve seen that Darryn’s secret mission was to go and play XCOM – but he’s now moved from London, to Los Angeles for something else. We can’t wait to share what that is, because we’re pretty sure you’re going to love it. Like Mondays.

In Other News: Activision’s worried the next gen could go the way of the Wii U, Square’s Enix’s Final Fantasy is to actually make some money, The Fast and the Furious 11 Need for Speed starts filming and you can now get sloshed while watching Starcraft in London.

    Kotick doesn’t know what his talking about. How the hell are smartphones and tablets gonna compete with next gen consoles. There are way, WAY to many games not just counting AAA games that simply can’t work on smartphones and tablet. Forstbite 3 doesn’t even run properly on the WIIU so please show me a demo on a tablet. Pricing wise Sony and XBOX has been very clever to model their consoles on PC’s. Parts are cheaper so more people can afford it.

    In the end I think he’s kaking his khakis because with new consoles comes a boat load of new IP’s and that will damage COD sales so he is obviously trying to rock the boat. Douchebag!

    Man I’m a little disappointing… Just a bit though.
    Why no article on the Dota 2 Internationals West Coast Qualifiers, which started at 16:00 today and runs all week, then next week the East Coast all week… Some quality professional Dota 2 with professional shout-casting to go with it…
    Please make an article on it tomorrow, even a small one 🙂 Just getting the eSports word out there, cause with SA being the only African Dota 2 server we are sitting pretty for next years internationals for sure
