One of last fall's more prominent game industry jokes was "2014 has been delayed to 2015." Several high-profile AAA games--among them have stolen our imagination and time, both bringing radically different experiences that are so intriguing we can't pull away.
To sum it up: 2015 has been good to us, gamers. There are tons of games to choose from, both AAA and indie, renewed and completely new, bite-sized and all-time-consuming. The latter half of 2015 is already packed with big goodies as we approach the traditional overstuffed pre-holiday lineup, but looking out into 2016, it'll be hard for next year to match the surplus of gaming wealth we've gotten so far.

As a writer and producer, Kinberg is involved with some of the biggest sci-fi/fantasy properties in film. He has credits on several of Fox's Marvel titles, including this year's Fantastic Four reboot and the upcoming Deadpool and X-Men: Apocalypse.

"Revenge porn" is a term for the publication of sensitive, and usually explicit, images of a person's ex-partner. A recent report from UK police has shown that British Law enforcement is dealing with the largest volume of revenge porn allegations in its history.

As of writing, Microsoft's form has only so far been made available in English but, Beauchere explains, it will be expanded to other languages in the coming weeks.
