Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Trailer Shows New Gameplay Details
The latest trailer for Rory McIlroy PGA Tour shows off the three control styles players will be able to choose from in the game: arcade, classic, and Tour.
Arcade style uses the left stick to control power and accuracy and gives players the ability to add spin to the ball while it's in the air. Classic controls eschew the thumbsticks completely and are reminiscent of earlier EA golf games, where a 3-click system determines power and accuracy.
The Tour style controls are the most simulation-heavy of the three control schemes, with the length of backswing and speed of follow-through determining power and the club path through the ball being the most important factor in determining accuracy.

Mad Max Gameplay Trailer Reveals Thunderdome
Today's Mad Max gameplay overview trailer reveals the Thunderdome, the caged gladiator arena from 1985's Mad Max 3: Beyond Thunderdome.
Does this mean we can anticipate deadly cage fights as much as ruthless desert warfare?
Just based on this trailer, we're not quite sure what the role of the Thunderdome is in the new Mad Max game.
Does it make a one-off appearance as part of a story mission, or is it a multiplayer game mode unlockable via the campaign? The possibilities...
Steam Workshop Update Gives Creators More Ways to Make Money
Steam has updated Workshop to let modders make more money from their creations.
Games with the new feature enabled will let modders list their maps, items, and other creations for sale directly through Steam Workshop through "a new streamlined process."
Direct mod sales begin today with Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and future titles will become available "in the coming weeks."
"We think this is a great opportunity to help support the incredible creative work being done by mod makers in the Steam Workshop," said Valve's Tom Bui, adding that user-generated content (UGC) is increasingly a "significant component" of many Steam games. Valve believes that adding financial incentives for modders will "help drive the level of UGC to new heights."

No Gambit in X-Men: Apocalypse?
X-Men: Apocalypse may not in fact feature an appearance from Channing Tatum's Gambit.
In an interview with MTV, while promoting his upcoming film Magic Mike XXL, Tatum hinted at the very real possibility of Gambit's planned solo film serving as the first time moviegoers get to see his version of the character on the silver screen. This conflicts with early reports which indicated that Gambit might debut in the Days of Future Past sequel.
"You know, I don’t know if I’m at liberty to say," Tatum said when asked about Gambit's role (or lack thereof) in X-Men: Apocalypse. "But I don’t think I want to introduce Gambit until you can really explain who Gambit is."
What’s New on Netflix in May
No, there's no hugely-hyped superhero series like Marvel's Daredevil in May (though here's your reminder to start watching Daredevil if you haven't!), but that doesn't mean Netflix is slowing its original series roll. Two more new Netflix shows premiere this month - the Jane Fonda/Lily Tomlin comedy Grace & Frankie and the sci-fi drama Between, starring iCarly's Jennette McCurdy - the latter especially notable as it's the first time Netflix will release a series with one episode a week, rather than their usual "Here's the whole season at once" method.
