Mr. Robot: How Much Did Joanna Have Planned Out?
Warning: Full spoilers for Mr. Robot's Season 2 finale follow.
There were a lot of big events in Mr. Robot’s Season 2 finale, as we got confirmation at last that Tyrell Wellick (Martin Wallström) was alive via an encounter between Tyrell and Elliot - one that quickly went south in a notable way when Tyrell pulled a gun on Elliot. But that wasn’t the only memorable encounter, as Tyrell’s wife, Joanna (Stephanie Corneliussen) discovered the messages she’d been getting from “Tyrell” were actually from Scott (Brian Stokes Mitchell), the husband of Tyrell’s own murder victim, Sharon.
In the wake of the Season 2 finale, I spoke to Corneliussen about all that occurred for Joanna, how much of it she had planned out (including her reaction to Scott's attack) and more – including some lingering questions from the season... like what the hell is Joanna’s baby named?
Destiny: Where to Watch the New Raid Tomorrow
The release of Destiny’s newest Raid is always a special moment for fans of the franchise. Players grind to have their characters ready of the encounter, days of work are missed, and it’s all to be among the first to complete this challenging event that's regarded as the best part of Destiny. The Raid launches at 10am Pacific, but we'll be live at 9am getting ready to go.
This year IGN will be joining in on the fun for Wrath of the Machine yet again. We’re proud to announce that IGN's Destin Legarie will be playing alongside Planet Destiny’s Holtzman, 2 of his friends from clan Solarity, and also broadcasters TeftyTeft, and the Briar Rabbit. This group has been hard at work the last few days getting their characters all above 370 light so that they have the best opportunity possible to become Worlds First to complete the encounter. You can follow along with our progress right here on IGN.
See Tippett Studio’s Original Models From Star Wars, Jurassic Park, RoboCop, and More
Phil Tippett's creations, and those of his Tippett Studio, have brought to life some of the most memorable creatures and moments from film over the last few decades. And as some of Tippett's unused creature designs get a second chance at life in the upcoming AR game HoloGrid, IGN took a tour of the studio.
Ahead of HoloGrid: Monster Battle's mobile release, IGN took a look at props, models, and more from Tippett Studio's various award-winning work, from contributions to Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope through films like RoboCop, Jumanji, Hellboy, and Cloverfield. Take a look at the gallery below to see a host of models from those films and more:
"It was at a period of time when a lot of new stuff was happening, and it was all experimental and fun. So you were just making stuff up out of nothing," Tippett said of designing creatures for films back in the days of the original Star Wars.
Turkish Company Builds Real-World Transformers
Turkish company Letvision has created the real-world equivalent of Transformers — minus the sentience.
Called Letrons, these remote-controlled cars transform from a BMW into a functioning robot, according to the company's official website (via The Awesomer).
In its robot form, Letrons can rotate their heads 120 degrees and perform "speech and movement abilities in real time" thanks to camera integration. The Letrons are also able to move their arms, wrists, and individual fingers, but not the legs — Letvision notes that functionality could be added if "reasonable funding is provided for a new research and development project," though.

Pottermore Now Lets You Discover Your Patronus
A new feature has launched on J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter website, Pottermore, allowing fans to finally discover the identity of their Patronus.
Rowling has designed a Patronus quiz that is now live on Pottermore and features a series of multiple choice questions. Participants are taken through an animated stretch of forest located by the lake (a setting that will look quite familiar to Harry Potter fans) before being prompted with a handful of words to select from.
For those unfamiliar with Harry Potter lore, a Patronus is a spell conjured in order to ward off Dementors, which are soul-sucking creatures that feed on happiness. The spell, first seen in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, is fueled by a happy memory that takes on the form of a specific animal unique to each person.
