Despite being teased in the beta events for Heart of Thorns the raids (or raid, singular, in this case) did not ship with the expansion.

Finally, after almost a month of what I can only imagine was extra time to polish and balance it, the first Guild Wars 2 raid, Spirit Vale is coming to the game in November 17, 2015.

After being announced what feels like forever ago the Steam hardware has finally arrived, although in limited fashion. So far it is only available in the US, Canada and Europe with the rest following shortly.

If you are simply looking for specifics head over to the new Steam Hardware section, otherwise read on and I'll give you a brief rundown of the prices and what to expect from each of the offers.

While I'm sad to see it go I can't say its unexpected. Their goal was to offer an alternative to GTA: Online, one without microtransactions or limits on what you can do and mess around with.

And as you might imagine they've recently got a take-down notice and are now shutting down all development for the mod.

Lock yourself in a vault, bring ample supply of food and water, cut off any and all contact from the outside world and prepare. Or you can be a sane person and just play it in your spare time, either way Fallout 4 has arrived (November 10).

I'll get my teeth sunk in to the game as soon as possible and try to get out my own review in a couple of days, after I've had enough time to get a good view on it.

When I first saw Rocket League I expected it to be one of those Internet fads, a game that surges in popularity for a few weeks, everyone talks about it and constantly plays it and then it slowly fades away and becomes forgotten (*cough* Slender *cough*).

What it turned out to be in the end is not a fad, but rather a very polished and even more so addictive game. And now, many months after release, Rocket League is not only going strong but is also getting ready for a major free patch.

Diablo 3 isn't one of my main games yet it still somehow ends up being one the few games I come back to and revisit every few months. It might be simply because I find it fascinating how much it changed with time, especially in the eyes of the players. It went from being hated by so many at launch to now being regarded as a classic in the making.

A big part of that change in community reception were the frequent and, dare I say, excellent patches that brought in new features as well as extensive balance changes that helped shake up the metagame and redefine what builds and spells people used in high level content.

And the announced 2.4.0 patch is exactly that kind of patch.

Well this was unexpected. I knew a Hearthstone expansion would be announced on this year's Blizzcon but I certainly didn't expect it to be released quite literally next week, with the release date set for November 12th.

I have a feeling this is Blizzard's response to the rising amount of complaints about the current Hearthstone metagame, where deck archetypes are so aggressive and so entrenched nothing short of massive changes will shake them up. So will the League of Explorers bring with it that change?
