The ABC confirms that Doctor Who will air in Australia at the same time as the UK; Valve announces the Steam Controller, which is not like any controller you’ve seen before, but can a Steam console even succeed; Warner Brothers and Fox team up to bring us a TV show about Gotham City… without Batman; and now that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has aired, does this new show from Whedon and Co. have any potential?
