The more I see the different layers they added, the more impressed I am. Good video.
Because giants aren’t real and hurting actual horses is bad, the production team behind Game of Thrones had some challenges to overcome when drawing up and filming the show’s epic Battle of the Bastards.
ZOMG. Absolutely LOVED the finale last night. No insultingly generic cliffhangers (yes, I'm looking at YOU, Walking Dead), just one hell of an opening and the continuing to build, showing all the pieces moving closer together. Can't WAIT for next season. That was damn good stuff.
It’s taken six seasons, but Ned Stark has finally been proven right: Winter has come, and with it, the beginning of the end of Game of Thrones. As such, the show needed to start paring down its various storylines and plot threads, which it did last night with brutal efficiency. For those few players that remain, the time for games is over.
One word, Corey Brooks: Seriously? It seems the self-described extraordinary, passionate and lovable baseball coach from Dallas needs a reminder of how Big Brother works (i.e. there are cameras watching contestants 24/7) in light of his recent homophobic remarks and a story about how his friend apparently once tried to light a goat on fire — statements many viewers found offensive and troubling.
Ever since the contestants who would be locked up in the Big Brother summer vacation-themed house were announced in early June, many have kept their eyes on Corey. One social media user dug up Corey's alleged and now-deleted tweets from 2011 with homophobic slurs.

I think the trailer shows too much, but wow, looks great!
I don’t think we’re supposed to be terrified of the latest Tim Burton movie, adapted from the book by Ransom Riggs. I just know that this weird cover of “New World” is paired with creepy kids and an even creepier Eva Green.
EXCLUSIVE: HBO’s fantasy drama Game Of Thrones has been a rare combination of a ratings smash, cultural phenomenon and a critical darling, winning the Best Drama Series Emmy last year. I hear the stars of the series are sharing in its success with major new salary bumps for what is rumored to be Game Of Thrones’ final chapter.
I hear mainstays Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Kit Harington(Jon Snow), Lena Headey(Cersei Lannister), Emilia Clarke(Daenerys Targaryen)…
Scientists say the number of annual “extreme heat” days in Los Angeles could increase by 800% over the course of this century. Good thing future L.A. residents will have futuristic air-conditioning in their self-driving cars as they sit in future sweltering traffic jams

Ever since the tragic events in Orlando, the internet has rallied to show their support for victims of the nightclub shooting and LGBT community of Orlando.
Unfortunately, there are still homophobic bigots out there trolling their best to justify the slaughter of 49 people.
So, on Monday, Darrius Anderson decided to shut up those bible thumping haters with an incredible rant on just how hypocritical peoples' interpretation of the bible can be.

We in the journalism field suffer the daily indignities of a dying industry, so sometimes our bosses try and cheer us up, usually with room temperature pizza sitting in clotted pools of grease. Bad pizza is better than some alternatives, though, such as the cake recently served to some staffers of The Oregonian which caused their bodies to spew shit like a punctured oil pipe.
So the other shoe drops... or should I say leather louis vuitton loafer?
Early Sunday morning, Omar Mateen shot and killed 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando, perpetrating the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. Mateen, his father explained the next day, had repeatedly been angered by the sight of two men kissing. But according to witnesses, Mateen was also a regular at the club and exchanged messages with at least one gay man on a gay dating app.
One man took to Craigslist in hopes to discover some truth to why his Tinder date bailed, and blocked him for no apparent reason. He explains in his story that he smelt it but wasn't the one who dealt it. Promising that it wasn't his lingering farts that refused to drift off... and he was right, it wasn't him.
His date responds with a hilarious and unexpected tell-all, titled "shart and come clean."
A teaser website for Microsoft's anticipated Crackdown 3 has emerged, just days before E3 kicks off. Discovered by a Crackdown forums member, the site refers to the user as an "agent" and mentions five "mission dates." The first is for today, June 10, with others to follow on a weekly basis until July 7.
The website also mentions "BETA_INIT," which could be a reference the previously announced Crackdown 3 beta. There are also references to how players can earn "$2/$10 toward your agency pension," though it's unknown what this might mean. You can check out the website here to decipher the clues for yourself.
Crackdown 3 doesn't currently have a release date, but series creator Dave Jones narrowed it down to summer 2016. Microsoft later clarified that the entirety of Crackdown 3 won't be available during summer 2016, as Jones suggested. Instead, it's just multiplayer that will be playable in that window.
This spot is fascinating and kind of amazing, but we have to ask... WHY? If you can understand German, you might be able to answer our question by watching how they made the commercial.
Microsoft may be preparing a new, much more powerful version of their Xbox One games console codenamed ‘Scorpio’ to power the Oculus Rift some reports are suggesting.
As the gaming industry and associated press wind the hype engine up in preparation for one of the biggest gaming events of the year, E3 next month, we’re starting to see some interesting VR related reports. The latest is that the virtual reality plans we all hoped Microsoft were working on, may comprise a smart move to bring their console platform, the Xbox One, to a VR capable performance level with the Oculus Rift as the target headset. It’s also claimed MS are pursuing a partnership with Oculus to supply headsets to go with the new console, said to be released in 2017.
Reported both by Kotaku and Polygon, sources are suggesting that a secret R&D project, codenamed Scorpio, is actually a new console revision that drastically increases the XBox One’s rendering capabilities to allow it to cope with the rigours of VR. The latest figures, based on what seems to be a still evolving platform, suggests that the new target may be an impressive 5-6 Teraflops for Scorpio’s GPU.
Ever since Sony announced at GDC 2014 they would be bringing a native virtual reality platform to their PlayStation 4 console, then called Project Morpheus, now PlayStation VR (PSVR) the VR world has been waiting to see Microsoft’s next move. Whilst initially the software giant may internally have brushed off the threat this may pose to their console user base, the good press and hype surrounding PlayStation VR, due to arrive in October this year, will have left them with little doubt they needed to do something.
Beefing up the Xbox One’s specification and then cutting a deal with Oculus to target games and/or bundle a version of their hardware with the console would be a smart way to play catch up whilst eliminating the need to reinvent the VR wheel. Sony is also rumoured to be working on a similarly updated new PS4 revision, codenamed Neo (colloquially known as PS4.5) which its rumoured will also bring significant extra grunt to the platform – although the focus of rumours thus far have been on 4k gaming, in line with Sony’s consumer electronics roots.
These are all still just rumours of course, but both sites mentioned cite multiple sources for their assertions and both seem to be gaining legitimacy as we edge closer to E3, due to start in a few weeks. The pressure on Microsoft to provide a response to PS4’s early VR lead is mounting and choosing Oculus, a company built primarily around PC VR technology as a partner makes sense, especially as Xbox one and PCs share a common Windows 10 / Direct X platform base. Announcing all of this at E3 would be the perfect platform, especially of Sony choose the expo as the venue to confirm rumours of PlayStation Neo too.
Road to VR will be present at E3 in LA next month to bring you the latest news from the show floor.
