After numerous rumors about the next Call of Duty heading into space we now have an official confirmation as Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare has just been announced, and it features prominently a whole fleet of starships.
As you might expect from a Call of Duty game, there is a trailer filled with explosions, overly powerful and infinitely funded villains, starships explosions, and even a couple of mechs which unfortunately don't explode. Have a look:

"You Should Try" is a series of articles where I'll showcase you a game I really enjoy while explaining what exactly makes it fun. This can be any game, new or old, indie or AAA, the only requirement is that it has to be something I've found myself greatly enjoying and in need of sharing with the world.
Today I think you should try Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition, a combat orientated turn-based RPG that offers you a myriad of ways to blast away your enemies in either singleplayer, or co-op multiplayer with someone who will hopefully remain your friend even after you accidentally lob a fireball straight at their nether regions.
Be Careful About Cheaters In Dark Souls 3's PC Multiplayer

While I usually don't like to spread panic by sending out warnings like this one, I've managed to encounter two cheaters in the last few days that have attempted to get me softbanned by either having me loot obscene amounts of hacked gear, or by simply 'donating' me a few million souls.
The issue seems to be fairly wide spread, as this Reddit post showcases the very same tricks I've already seen, but also a couple of different ones such as the cheaters having the ability to essentially make you 'use' a homeward bone just by touching you once. So what should you do to protect yourself against the couple of douchebags that seem to take pleasure in tormenting fellow players?
Quantum Break's Latest PC Patch Allows You To Disable Upscaling And Film Grain

Quantum Break, much like the majority of recent Windows 10 ports, released in a rather sorry state with plenty of bugs, annoying performance issues, constantly active film grain, and worst of all, surprisingly muddy graphics due to the game's engine essentially upscaling from 720p into 1080p.
Thankfully, with the most recent Update 1.7 the majority of these issues have finally been resolved, and from what I can gather on various forums Quantum Break is now a perfectly playable PC port... if you have the necessary hardware to run it given that disabling the game's upscaling comes with a significant hit to performance.
With that said, here are the full patch notes for Update 1.7:
FromSoftware's Next Title Will Be Available Cross Platform, But Also On PlayStation VR

- in News
It was known for quite a while now that Dark Souls 3 would mark the end of the Dark Souls franchise and that FromSoftware are already working on a brand new game, though it was and still remains unknown if its going to be a new IP, or a resurrection of one of their older series.
The reason I'm bringing this up now is because a recruitment video got 'leaked' on Youtube recently, and it quite clearly shows that FromSoftware's new game is coming in 2017 to PC, Xbox One, PS4, and most interestingly, PlayStation VR! Here's the video, and you will find the relevant information near the end:
