Play As Overwatch’s Tracer Using Street Fighter 5 Mod
Have you ever wanted to play as Tracer in Street Fighter V? Whatever your answer, now you can thanks to a mod from TheJamk.
The mod (thanks VG24/7) is essentially a skin for Cammy, replacing Street Fighter V's English lady with Overwatch's English lady.
You won't be playing around with any of Tracer's time-travel shenanigans, but the art is very impressive. There are even a number of color options available from the character select screen.
In other Street Fighter V news, Capcom recently revealed more information on the upcoming Story Mode. Meanwhile, Blizzard shared new details on competitive mode for Overwatch, and announced the game now has over 10 million players.
Independence Day Director Mocks Marvel Movies
Roland Emmerich has derided superhero movies for being 'silly', saying that his own films are more down to Earth.
Speaking to the Guardian, the Independence Day director said:
“When you look at my movies it’s always the regular Joe Schmo that’s the unlikely hero. A lot of Marvel movies, they show people in funny suits running around. I don’t like people in capes. I find it silly when someone dons a superhero suit and flies. I don’t understand it. I grew up in Germany, that’s probably why.”
Emmerich's Joe Schmos have thus far included a Special Forces agent brought back from the dead with superpowers, the ghost of a butler possessing a grandfather clock, and the President of the United States.

Blizzard on Designing Hearthstone’s Old Gods
It’s been an exciting couple of months for Hearthstone, as the introduction of Standard mode and the release of the new expansion, Whispers of the Old Gods, has really reinvigorated the game. I recently caught up with senior game designer Mike Donais and game designer Peter Whalen to talk about the changes and the new cards. You can read the first part of the interview – which is focused on the state of Hearthstone as a whole, here. This part is a discussion of the design process behind creating the Old Gods themselves.
GoT Showrunners Call Daenerys a ‘Good’ Targaryen
Spoilers for Game of Thrones' "Battle of the Bastards" continue below.
The night is dark and full of terrors -- one of which is Daenerys Targaryen.
The Khaleesi is ready to board the Westeros Express and head across the Narrow Sea to claim her place on the Iron Throne, and her rising prowess as a conquerer has caused some fans -- including us -- to wonder if she's becoming more villain than hero. Her actions in "Battle of the Bastards" could add further fuel to that theory, with even Tyrion Lannister cautioning Daenerys not to become too much like her father the Mad King.
GoT: The Real-Life Battles That Inspired “Battle of the Bastards”
Spoilers for Game of Thrones' "Battle of the Bastards" continue below. Read on at your own risk.
Director Miguel Sapochnik pulled off something truly impressive in "Battle of the Bastards" by executing a battle sequence that was both massive in scope and incredibly personal. In fact, it was such a difficult feat that showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss said they couldn't find great examples of something similar in film.
Instead, they looked to history, and built up a believable medieval pitched battle from there. In "Battle of the Bastards'" Inside the Episode segment, Benioff and Weiss explained the two key moments of history that they drew inspiration from.
In Celebration of That Satisfying Game of Thrones Moment
Game of Thrones spoilers continue below, and if you haven't watch "Battle of the Bastards" yet, do so because it's easily one of the best episodes the series has ever done. Yes, really.
Season 6 has been the Game of Thrones season for Sansa Stark, and that's been proven time and again when she's taken every terrible thing that's happened to her, spun it around as a knowledge base and come out on top. That was proven doubly over in "Battle of the Bastards": first when she saved the day by arriving with the Army of the Vale, and second when she got her vengeance on Ramsay Bolton.
