GoT: Gendry Actor Hints at Larger Role in Season 8
Gendry actor Joe Dempsie hints at a larger role for the Game of Thrones character in Season 8.
In an interview with Digital Spy, Dempsie teased that Gendry has "done well" for himself in the upcoming final eighth season of the show, but has also made sure to add that this doesn't necessarily mean Gendry will survive till the end of the story.
"I've done well out of it this year, for sure," Dempsie said. "As with all these things, we never shoot in chronological order – so you might have people coming in at the beginning and at the end, but it doesn't necessarily mean they make it all the way through!"
Spyro the Dragon Return Possibly Teased by Mysterious Package
Update #2: A new tweet from the Falcon McBob, which the official Crash Bandicoot account followed yesterday, could be offering yet another clue of Spyro's return, or a well-placed troll.
"Good times," @SpyrotheDragon has tweeted at the official Crash account, with a close-up photo of Crash's face, seemingly from a Bandicoot costume used in some of that character's live-action commercials.

Vive Pro Responds to Pricing Complaints with New Starter Bundle
Today the Vive team announced it would begin offering the Vive Pro Starter Kit tomorrow, April 5, which is also the two-year anniversary of the Vive’s launch.
The bundle will include the Vive Pro headset, two Vive 1.0 controllers, and two 1.0 base stations for a cost of $1,100. The controllers and base stations are required to use the Vive, and don’t come included with the Pro’s regular $800 price tag.
This Starter Kit comes as a direct response to complaints about the price of buying these accessories separately. As Dan Mentioned in his Vive Pro review, the cost of buying sensors and controllers on their own comes out to a total of $530 - that’s more expensive than buying the base Vive itself, which includes those things alongside a headset.

Fortnite Devs Slow Down Patch Schedule to Improve Bug Fixing
Epic Games has announced that they'll be slowing down their Fortnite patch schedule to once every two weeks to improve bug fixing.
The fortnightly patch schedule will alternate with the new Content Updates, confirmed a PR spokesperson, and won't affect the weekly content for the game. Players will still get new features every week without the need for an update.
"Starting this week, we are doing things a little differently. Every other week we will drop new content without the need for an update," Epic explained. "These will be called Content Updates. This new cadence allows us to iron out more complex bugs, while continuing to provide fun content every week."
Marvel’s Spider-Man Features Unlockable Suits, No Microtransactions
Marvel's Spider-Man will feature unlockable Spidey suits, which come with distinct abilities - and you won't be able to get them through microtransactions, it seems.
As part of a Game Informer cover feature, Insomniac revealed three new suits (some more certain than others) beyond the developer's own new costume:
- Spider-Punk - Part of the game's pre-order bonuses, this combination of a sleeveless denim jacket and a spike mohawk adds the strange ability of allowing Peter to pull out a guitar and play a sonic shockwave knockdown attack.
