RockStar has announced earlier yesterday that Grand Theft Auto V on PC will not be arriving this month, and has been pushed to March 24, 2015.

Sony seems to have been feeling really generous lately. It may be because they’ve sold over 18 million PS4 console worldwide to-date, or it may be because they’ve had a great holiday season, or MAYBE..it’s because they’re just…Sony? Either way, they’re definitely feeling some sort of way, as they have recently announced a $399 PS4 bundle that will include The Last of Us: Remastered for free! Before, the standalone PS4 system was $399 with bundles only available during this past holiday season for a little bit extra, so all in all, this is nothing less than a STEAL for any…

An interesting listing has come up over on the Microsoft Store website. The store has recently put up a listing for Mirrors Edge 2, listing the game for a 2015 release. While it has been roughly a full two years since the game was first announced during E3 2013, many have not expected the game to be ready this soon, including myself! During E3 2014 when the game was displayed once again, it seemed like things were still in early stages of development, however we may be closer to launch that we had originally thought. The Microsoft Store currently has…
Once again, word is going around on Twitter that Nintendo is currently prepping to hold a Media Event/Direct this month.
