--> Following the Federal Bureau of Investigation's widely reported seizure of pirate ROM site Nsw2u.com last week, the US government agency has confirmed the move was part of an operation that impacted "multiple" targets.
--> The director of the upcoming Resident Evil movie has discussed his vision for the adaptation, including plans to shift away from the source material in some ways, and is expecting “online hate” because of it.
--> The UK games trade body is scrambling to explain a BBC Breakfast segment, in which its CEO appeared alongside a Super Nintendo with an NES cartridge inserted into its game slot.
