Chinese mobile developers have a long history of stealing intellectual property. Take for example 300 Heroes, a game for all intents and purposes is a re-skinned League of Legends. It's a problem that has been rampant for the past five years, but every attempt to thwart it hasn't ended well.

If you're frustrated by the PC version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, know that you aren't alone. Thousands of those who were excited for this year's hottest RPG have been disappointed by a variety of issues with the game no matter the platform. Thankfully, these issues are fixable with patches, and today's update takes a step in the right direction.
The Electronic Entertainment Expo may be a trade event in theory, but clearly many involved are trying to make it more accessible to the gamers themselves. That's why the team behind the PlayStation "E3 Experience" press conference are taking their act to the silver screen.

During the latest Iwata Asks, Nintendo's president and CEO chatted with the development studio behind the upcoming third-person shooter game, Splatoon.
In the discussion, several tidbits of interesting information were revealed, including the fact that when the game was first shown off at last year's E3, it was only 10 percent complete. "At E3, we only had one weapon," Nintendo developer Tsubasa Sakaguchi told Satoru Iwata. "We only had one stage, and only a mock-up of the sequence. So when we returned from E3, our big issue was figuring out how to turn all that into a product."
As I say at the start of the video, I was surprised I hadn't yet done an episode of Challenge Accepted with Spelunky. It's challenging, provides quality entertainment in the form of dumb player mistakes, and is simply a lot of fun to play.

Sony Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida broke some good news for Bloodborne fans. Responding to DLC questions, @yosp tweeted:
"So I have been asked by many people if we are making DLC for Bloodborne. I can sayhellip; An expansion is coming. fo later this year."
E3 looms in the distance, but is that too quick a time to hear news about this expansion, so soon after the confirmation? Also, people misspeak sometimes, so we don't yet know if "expansion" means a full-sized expansion pack like we got used to in previous generations or just some DLC pieces that technically "expand" a game but use the word in a slightly different way. So be careful. Words, am I right?
