Why Rust devs Facepunch decided not to announce another new game this week
EDIT: Facepunch are still going to announce the new prototype this week, Garry told us on Twitter. “Ian was just feeling a bit down :)”. Original story follows.

Creative reassembly: Total War: Shogun II is coming to Mac
Is Shogun II still the best Total War? Total War: Rome II might have been patched within an inch of its life, but Japan has always proven a leaner, more tightly-packed muse for Creative Assembly. Perhaps it’s a simple matter of geography.
Three years on, Feral Interactive have finally ported the series high point to Mac.
A brief glimpse at Unreal Tournament's deathmatch: "We' have a game now"
Back at the end of May, the Unreal Tournament Team showed off the first footage of the upcoming multiplayer shooter. It came not long after the announcement of the project, and looked basic, to say the least. There were two guns and a big open space with some boxes, and that was it.

Full steam ahead: World of Warcraft's Grimrail Depot dungeon is sure to become a favourite
After almost a decade of designing dungeons for World of Warcraft, you’d think that Blizzard might have run out of steam. But this fight through one of Warlords of Draenor’s dungeons, Grimrail Depot, suggests otherwise. The dungeon is a train. A moving train no less.
It looks bloody fantastic.

Jeremy was not far off when he compared League of Legends newest champion, Gnar, to a Gremlin earlier today. The wee beastie has been fully revealed by Riot, and yeah, he’s basically a Gremlin.
