DTOID News is part of a balanced breakfast

Here’s Max to cap off the week of videogame news. He claims his laptop battery is almost out of juice but I think he just wanted to get the weekend started early. I’d have done the same thing.

The newThiefandMiddle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, two games that have experienced their fair share of criticism from fans of those properties, got the preview treatment. We also saw trailers forThe Amazing Spider-Man 2,The Elder Scrolls Online‘s packed voice cast, andJazzpunk. That last one will rank among the year’s best game trailers, mark my words. Whoa.

More than anything, I’m pleased to hear that Max agrees with me about the stupidity of the name “The Golf Club.”Take that, Steven! And bring your puns with you.
