You Can Now Delete Unwanted Games from Steam
Valve will now allow users to delete games from their Steam library. Valve did not announce this feature publicly, but NeoGAF user Enter the Dragon Punch found the option on Steam's support page.
To delete a game, select "Help" from the menu bar of the Steam client, then "Steam Support." Click on "Games, Software, etc." to open up a list of your games and select the game you want to delete, then click "I want to permanently remove this game from my account." It'll ask you again to if you're sure, and if you are, click "I want to permanently remove this game from my account."
Valve notes that you should uninstall the game before removing the game from your library, or else you'll have to dig through the depths of your computer to delete the files.
In Defense of Frank Miller’s Batman
Frank Miller has a curious reputation among many Batman fans. He's widely regarded as one of the most influential Batman creators of all time thanks to works like The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One. Yet he's also treated as a pariah for more recent projects like The Dark Knight Strikes Again and All-Star Batman & Robin. In a sense, Miller has become the George Lucas of the comic book industry - beloved for his early work and mocked for what came later. But whereas you'd have a hard time arguing that the Star Wars prequels are worthy of the original trilogy, Miller's Batman work is much more cohesive than many people like to believe. Miller and his work deserve more respect than they receive from readers.

Halloween Slasher Michael Myers Once Considered for Mortal Kombat X
Iconic movie characters The Terminator and famed Halloween slasher Michael Myers were at one point considered for additional characters in Mortal Kombat X.
Speaking with IGN, Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon said, "We've tossed around a whole bunch of names, like The Terminator, or something like that. And for various reasons – whether it wasn't a match, or we just couldn't come to terms with it – they didn't happen.
"We're always exploring a lot more than we actually end up doing. For instance: Michael Meyers from the Halloween franchise. We talked about that at one point but it just never kind of panned out."
Of course, Mortal Kombat X already has an impressive contingent of movie monsters as playable characters in Mortal Kombat X, including Jason Voohries, the Predator, alongside the recently announced Xenomorph from Alien and Leatherface of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre fame.

Hannibal: Mads Mikkelsen Looks Back on the Ending
Whether we get more Hannibal or not, the brilliant show’s third season was an incredibly thrilling one, bringing the story of Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen) and Will Graham (High Dancy) to an immensely satisfying conclusion – no matter if it’s the end of this particular chapter of the story or The End.
With Hannibal: Season 3 coming out on DVD and Blu-ray Tuesday, December 8th, I spoke to Mads Mikkelsen about the season, telling two distinct stories in the first and second halves, the relationship between Hannibal and Will, that final scene and more.
Suffice to say, major spoilers follow for Hannibal: Season 3.
IGN: Season 3's first half was so different, changing the show's location and placing Hannibal and Bedelia off on their own. Having done the show for a couple of years, did you enjoy getting to shake things up?

Jhonen Vasquez on Invader Zim’s Video Game Parodies
Oni Press is now five issues into their comic book revival of the short-lived but beloved animated series Invader Zim. So far the series has done a great job of replicating the distinctive look and feel of the show, probably because creator Jhonen Vasquez and other Zim veterans are still steering the ship.
Invader Zim #5 hit the stands this week, offering a new adventure focused on Dib and his militant sister Gaz and crammed with video game parodies. We figured now would be a great time to chat with Vasquez and hear his thoughts on working with Zim again, his changing role on the series and his love of video games. Plus, a few teases about the future of the series in 2016. Scroll down to see what he had to say.
Does Rainbow Six Siege Need a Proper Campaign?
Rainbow Six Siege is finally here, and we've been spending a lot of time taking out terrorists within the game's destructible environments.
Now that you've had some time to experience what the tactical shooter has to offer, we want to know what you think. Jump into the comments below and let us know your thoughts:
- Is there enough content for a $60 game?
- What do you think works (or doesn't) about the progression system?
- Which Operator are you digging the most?
- Is the lack of a proper single-player campaign a deal-breaker for you?
TheDJTeknology: Never use a mic on other games but it's a necessity in Rainbow. Having met a like minded group, when we execute as a team the feeling is euphoric! It will be the post launch support that will be the true test of the value. Maps are so nuanced it's going to take awhile to learn deeply.
Once Upon a Time: How Hook Became a ‘Malevolent Sociopath”
The darker side of Killian Jones has emerged once again, except this time, Hook has reached the pinnacle of evil. He's a Dark One, and unlike Emma, he's embraced the role. He didn't choose this path -- and in fact, specifically asked Emma to let him die -- but now that Hook has taken on the mantle, he's ready to fulfill his need for vengeance against Rumplestiltskin and to enact the collective Dark Ones' plan. He's opened the door to the Underworld to let them into Storybrooke.
With the midseason finale of Once Upon a Time looming, we spoke with Colin O'Donoghue about Hook's descent into darkness, his master plan, and where things stand with Emma.
