Its a sad day if you're an Afro Samurai fan as the game's second installment has fallen on its sword before the fight even began.
Despite only just being released, and with two more episodes planned for later, Afro Samura: The Revenge of Kuma has been pulled from Steam.
The most likely reason? It turned out to be a failure.
Rumor - Gameplay Details For Mass Effect Andromeda Leaked

I tend not to discuss rumors because often times there is just no way to know if any of it is true or not. But this time around it would appear there is actual proof that the leak is coming from someone that did indeed have contact with the game.
Mass Effect's subreddit moderators received a message as well as proof from someone that (obviously) wanted to remain unknown. The message being a bunch of new information about Mass Effect Andromeda.
Before reading on keep one thing in mind, even if all of this is completely true (and there is a chance it isn't) its possible none of this may be present in the final game depending on how the development goes, what elements end up working out and so on. With that said, here's what was leaked:
Mayan Death Robots Is A New Take On The Classic Worms Series

The Worms series is one of those games that I never actually owned yet I ended up playing over a hundred hours of at my friends house. It was, and still is, a great blend of chaos and strategy that only got better as our skill in the game increased and we were able to pull of some really tricky shots.
And it is from Worms that Mayan Death Robots draws inspiration but it isn't just a copy of the Worms formula with Death Robots added, its a bit more interesting than that.

Hidetaka Miyazaki, head of From Software and father of the whole Souls series, did a rather interesting interview for Gamespot.
Well, calling it an interview is a bit of a stretch, it seems to be more of a small friendly chat but Miyazaki did disclose one really big piece of information, Dark Souls 3 will be the finale of the whole Dark Souls series.

Payday 2 has been the subject of a lot of criticism lately. Their introduction of random paid skins with a random chance for a random stat boost didn't go over well with the community or the media, to say the least.
But they've finally realized the error of their ways and have issued a public apology in order to reconcile with the community... except not really.

I mentioned before that I like Diablo 3, and I really do. But when it comes to ARPGs Path of Exile is my go-to game. And now with a brand new expansion on the horizon, one that promises to redefine classes, I'm afraid my D3 Wizard is going to get benched for a while.
The Path of Exile expansion, called Ascendancy, is coming early 2016 and brings with it brand new class specializations, maps filled with deadly traps, bosses, an enchanting system and a whole bunch of skills and items.
Read on if you want a somewhat "brief" overview of the new features and I don't know about you but this has me excited.

I don't think this news comes as a surprise to anyone that finished season 1 given that it ended without resolving many of the plot points it started. But now we have official confirmation.
In an exclusive interview for The Hollywood Reporter, Kevin Bruner, Telltale's CEO talked about their Game of Thrones adaptation and what is to come.
WARNING: If you have not played through the entirety of season 1 do not click on the link above, it is chock-full of spoilers. On the other hand I'll make sure to keep my article brief and devoid of spoilers so feel free to read on.
