No Man’s Sky: How to Leave your Mark on the Universe
The universe is overflowing with intelligent life, and yet No Man's Sky is an oppressively lonely journey. It's no wonder Hello Games' grand sci-fi adventure is about discovery -- in the isolation of space, at the ends of the universe, everyone is searching for purpose.
Perhaps this is why we still have so many enduring questions about No Man's Sky. How do you explain a game about infinite possibility? What's out there to learn about, to hunt or escape, to claim for yourself? In a universe overflowing with intelligent life, why am I here?
The truth is out there.

Warcraft Movie Trailer Reportedly Coming This Weekend
After years of waiting it looks like our torment could finally be drawing to a close - sources are reporting the Warcraft movie trailer will officially debut at this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the panel on Saturday July 11 will see the movie get its "big public unveiling", which many are taking to mean we'll finally be able to see director Duncan Jones vision in all its glory.
Thus far, only a select few have been lucky enough to get a glimpse of the Warcraft movie. Back in July 2013 at SDCC's Legendary Pictures panel, a brief sizzle reel was shown to those in the hall. It's never been released to the wider world, however.

Final Fantasy 14: Heavensward Unleashes Alexander Raid
The freshly-released Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward expansion has received a patch adding its first raid.
Patch 3.01 is now available for Square Enix's MMO, which sees the mechanical colossus Alexander added to the game and primed to challenge adventurers.
Earlier this week Square Enix suspended sales of the issue-plagued Mac version of Final Fantasy XIV Online: A Realm Reborn and is offering refunds to those who bought the role-playing game on the platform.
The Walking Dead Sinks Its Teeth Into The Escapists
On paper, a cocktail of one part The Walking Dead, one part The Escapist seems like an odd mix. In the comic, Rick Grimes and his team of apocalypse survivalists spend most of their time barricading themselves into a prison, rather than trying to get out. But in reality it works, with The Escapists’ blend of makeshift survival and anything-goes strategy the ideal foundation on which to build a Walking Dead game.
You are Rick Grimes, the bad-ass cop who wakes in a hospital bed only to find the world he once knew has been overrun by the undead. Much like the comic, The Harrison Memorial Hospital provides the backdrop for the opening of The Escapists The Walking Dead, as well as a tutorial for the game.
