Supergirl: First Look at Red Tornado
A brand new image has been released of DC's Red Tornado from an upcoming episode of CBS’ Supergirl.

Morrow (also Goldberg) for the U.S. Army as the ultimate superweapon, he soon becomes sentient, posing a grave danger to National City -- including the people Supergirl cares about most."

New Final Fantasy 15 Story Details Revealed
During an Active Time Report at TGS today, Square Enix revealed more details regarding Final Fantasy XV's story.
The Report centered around a pair of characters -- Noctis’ father King Regis, and the mysterious Luna. We learned that in order to protect the kingdom of Lucis, King Regis had to erect a magical, protective barrier around the entire nation. But in doing so, the strain of the magic ate away at his body. This weakened state leaves himself, Noctis, and his kingdom vulnerable to the Nifelheim empire, which is pressing forward onto Lucis.
The footage Square showed at Gamescom was a short, emotional look at the bond between King Regis and Noctis. We also learned that the Regalia, the car Noctis and company drive around throughout Episode Duscae and XV proper, was previously owned by his father Regis.

Tomb Raider Reboot Rumor: Bigelow Could Direct
Tomb Raider is getting a reboot on the big screen, and a new rumor has pegged some high-profile directors as possibly being up for the helming job on the newest adventures of Lara Croft.
According to The Tracking Board, word has it that the producers of the film are looking at three potential directors: Kathryn Bigelow, Catherine Hardwicke and Mimi Leder.
This trio of female directors certainly have the chops to make Tomb Raider relevant again in cinemas. Bigelow won the Oscar for The Hurt Locker, while also being behind films such as Zero Dark Thirty, Strange Days, Near Dark, and of course Point Break. Mimi Leder has been working mostly in TV these days (The Leftovers, Shameless) but made films like Deep Impact and The Peacemaker in the late 1990s. And of course Hardwicke’s biggest picture was the first Twilight film.

Xbox Boss Explains Why Final Fantasy 14 is Not on Xbox One
Square Enix's reborn MMO Final Fantasy XIV has been available on PlayStation 4 for some time now, but no announcement has been made regarding whether or not it will eventually come to the Xbox One.
Unfortunately, it does not appear the game will be headed to the Microsoft platform any time soon. Speaking with IGN, Xbox head Phil Spencer explained this is due to business and platform exclusivity.
"It's business," he said, adding he couldn't speak too candidly about the matter. "As I've grow in this role, and I've tried to learn the third-party exclusivity thing - and you see us doing less of it now -
it's not something I'm a huge fan of."
Spencer cites that he likes to bring different aspects of a game to the Xbox One instead of deal with third-party exclusive titles, citing the Fallout 4 mods coming to the platform and how Microsoft worked with EA to get EA Access. He notes a different situation with Rise of the Tomb Raider, however, since Microsoft is playing an active role in its development and publishing.
