Pokemon Go Dev ‘Revokes’ Legendary Pokemon Access from Players’ Accounts

In a statement provided by a Niantic representative to IGN, the company said that it has "rectified the situation" and "revoked" the legendary Pokemon. The statement reads:
"We recently noticed that a few Legendary Pokemon got into a few accounts when they shouldn’t have, To preserve the game’s integrity and as a measure of fairness, we have rectified the situation and revoked the legendary Pokemon from the Trainers’ accounts."

Grow Up Might Look Like More of the Same – It Isn’t
“Wheeee!” “Errrrk!” “Ahhhh!”
These are some of the noises elicited by Grow Home, last year’s Ubisoft Reflections’ side project-turned-acclaimed wobbly heart-melter. One noise you’re unlikely to have made is “I am deeply happy to have efficiently and quickly reached the end of this starry adventure and will now return to the drab vicissitudes of life”.
Grow Home was a game technically about Pixar-y robot, BUD, climbing an alien beanstalk to get back to your spaceship mum - but it was about making death-defying climbs up impossibly steep cliff faces to reach an island that looked like it had a nice mushroom on it. Or rodeo-ing a space-vine to place you above a donut-shaped island and BASE jumping through its island-y guts to find a secret cave. Or kicking a sheep from 10,000 feet above sea level into that self-same sea. The fun was in spending time not getting to the end.

Hidden Agendas and Improved AI in Civilization 6
The intention was for Gandhi to be peaceful to a fault. That the famous Indian leader would be near impossible to anger, to reflect his famous passive resistance philosophy. In Civilization, hostility was handled on a ten point scale, and to reflect Gandhi's pacifism his hostility would hover at around one or two on the scale.
The problem for Civilization players was, however, that if they caused global hostility to reduce all at once, Gandhi's hostility would drop below the lowest measure on the scale. And because the game didn't handle negative integers, Gandhi's hostility rating wrapped around to the other end of the scale - and it didn't land on back on 10. It wrapped around and made its way to 255, and Nuclear Gandhi was born.
Fake Band’s Video Shows Footage From New Hitman Episode
Hitman’s next location, Thailand, has been premiered in a fake band’s music video.
The fake band in question is known as The Class, and the video for their actually real single Are We Stars (from a forthcoming possibly real or possibly fake EP, Providence), can be seen below, and contains hazy glimpses of the locations we'll soon be murdering our way through.
Interestingly, the lead singer of the band is apparently one Jordan Cross, whose name you may have heard uttered by some of the game’s NPCs in previous episodes. Could we be hearing our next target?
