Hundreds of Destiny Cheaters Banned

Bungie has brought the banhammer down on a new group of Destiny cheaters. The developer announced as part of its latest Weekly Update that a wave of offenders--hundreds of them--have been removed from the online game's Crucible multiplayer mode for manipulating network traffic.


"We know you want justice. We've seen the chatter. We've read the reports. Yesterday and today, our

See Alfred Kick Butt in This New Batman: Arkham Knight PC Mod

A new Batman: Arkham Knight PC mod shows Batman's butler, Alfred Pennyworth, in a totally more badass light. From the Batman Arkham Videos YouTube channel comes a new video that shows off the mod, in which Alfred becomes a playable character, jumping off buildings and laying waste to enemies.
There is even a romantic scene between Alfred and Catwoman, which is definitely a little weird. But my favorite part is probably at the five-minute mark, where Alfred demonstrates his true powers of (hilarious) evasion.

Dragon Ball Super: Plot Revealed

In Tokyo, Japan a Dragon Ball Super Complete Showcase Event was held on July 1 promote the July 5 debut of Dragon Ball Super! On hand were Masako Nozawa (Japanese voice of Goku), Good Morning America (rock band behind Dragon Ball Super ending song, Hello Hello Hello), and Kazuya Fujii through a prerecorded message (the artist behind the Dragon Ball Super opening Chozetsu ☆ Dynamic). Creator of Dragon Ball, Akira Toriyama, was not at the event in person, but he did share a message that revealed the plot of the series!
As reported in our previous post, Toriyama-sensei revealed episode 1 of Dragon Ball Super will take place six months after the fight with Majin Buu (which would make it 3.5 years before Battle of Gods).
His message continued to reveal the following:
“Dragon Ball Super” is a complete continuation of the Majin Buu story arc. It’s got a bit of post-battle aftermath, continues with the “Battle of Gods” arc where the God of Destruction Beerus appears and the “Revival of ‘F’” arc where Freeza comes back to life, and then, I’ve written a strange new story where they finally depart from this universe. They’re fighting against their neighbors, Universe 6! They’ll yell at me if I give away too many spoilers, so I’ll keep the rest a secret, but they’re chasing after giant Super Dragon Balls; I think things will unfold in a bright and simple way, that will be really fun and exciting!
Since it’s another universe, loads of new characters will turn up. I’ll do my best to draw the tons of character designs necessary, so I’m looking forward to this too.
You know, it suddenly occurs to me that somewhere along the line the Dragon Ball anime has become quite a huge story. Since I’m the guy who drew the thing, it’s a bit weird for me to say this, but when I first started out I never dreamed it would have a universe as a setting (laughs). Don’t worry though, it’s still going to be the same sort of easy-to-understand content as always. Please be sure to watch Dragon Ball Super on TV!
Below is an image from the ending theme that was teased by Toei Animation a few days ago:

GTA 5 Mod Turns Your Character Into Iron Man

A new mod for Grand Theft Auto V turns your character into Iron Man, complete with the iconic armor and the superhero's arsenal of high-powered weaponry.
GTA 5 fan JulioNIB created the mod, which overhauls the game's HUD in addition to adding armor and weapons. It's a very impressive mod; the armor looks great and the animations seem to be both accurate and fluid. You can check out a video of the mod in action below

Destiny: The Taken King's New Location Gets Details and Images

Female Gaming Characters Get "Realistic" Makeovers from Eating Disorder Group

Eating disorder support group Bulimia.com has re-imagined a variety of female video game characters--including Lara Croft and Cortana--in an effort to bring awareness to body image issues.
In a blog post (via Motherboard), Bulimia points out that graphics in video games has gotten better and better over time, with developers able to create more life-like worlds and characters. But video games too often perpetuate unrealistic body imagery, the group says--and this can be dangerous.
"If video game creators are going to pride themselves on accurate digital representations, then it's time for them to get real about women," Bulimia said.
