Rather then going the safe route and developing a Borderlands 3 for Next Gen Consoles; Gearbox is mixing things up with a brand new IP. Battleborn a mix between Competitve FPS MOBA inspired Multiplayer, and Cooperative Campaign has you playing as a cast of characters all throughout the galaxy to fight for control for the last star producing light.

Son discovers fathers "ghost" in racing game

This isn't so much news but rather a really heartwarming story that means a lot to me as someone who played racing games with their dad nonstop in my childhood. A fellow gamer recently booted up his original xbox only to play a racing game him and his father used to play. During the game he found his fathers time trials ghost and raced to beat it. Eventually he actually beat it but rather then crossing the finish line he allowed his fathers ghost to pass him to further keep the memory of the fun times they used to have.

Bungie reveals that your Destiny character will carry over throughout the entire series

Bungie's Destiny may be ambitious but recent revealed plans show that you will carry your Guardian with you throughout the entire course of the franchise's lifespan. Although with each new game every player will start on the same footing to give new players an equal chance to enjoy the game as much as us Veteran Guardians. This kind of dedication to keeping your character alive shows that Bungie really does care about post launch support for their game and I can't wait to see what adventures they take us on!

The second story hits me deep.

 

My Dad and me always play the sports games together like baseball and Madden. We've even played a few racing games, and even though I would always turn the car around and run into him for a head on collision, it was always fun for the both of us.
