LEGO DC Super-Villains Officially Announced
After leaks and teases, Warner Bros. Games has officially unveiled LEGO DC Super-Villains.
The game is set to release October 16 on PC, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One. LEGO DC Super-Villains sees the Justice League disappearing and offers up an open world for The Joker, Harley Quinn, Deathstroke and more.

Now we've heard about this game for several months at this point. LEGO DC Villains was rumored earlier this year (along with the already announced LEGO Incredibles), and then Walmart Canada listed the game as well as Rage 2 and more.

Valve Removes School Shooting Game From Steam
Valve has removed the controversial school shooting game Active Shooter and its developer from the Steam marketplace.
The description of Active Shooter (now removed,) called it a "dynamic SWAT simulator in which dynamic roles are offered to players." In the game, you could play as a shooter, a SWAT team member, or a civilian, and its trailer depicted a shooter massacring his way through school halls.
Understandably, Active Shooter attracted controversy on its forums, with one Steam user calling it a 'step too far' despite being a fan of 'offensive humor'.
Today, Valve took down Active Shooter from Steam, as well as any game published by Revived Games and publisher Acid, but not for the reasons you might think.
