/ Jeff Jones / Leave a comment

If you log into Destiny this weekend and complete an activity, (Nightfall, PVP for example) you are entitled to some cool in-game rewards.

Some of the rewards include 15 strange coins, 15 motes of light, and a “exclusive” new emblem. Those are some pretty valuable rewards considering Xur is in the Tower for his weekly visit. The event is good up until the end of this Sunday the 10th so go get you some Destiny rewards.

Street Fighter: Resurrection Coming March 2016

/ Jeff Jones / Leave a comment

The same team that brought us the magnificent Street Fighter: Assassins Fist, is bring us a new chapter in the Street Fighter saga.

The trailer gives us a look at Guile’s long time best buddy, Charlie. This is the new version of Charlie though, the same version featured in Street Fighter V. Judging from the title of the series, we could possibly get a good look into what exactly happened to Charlie. It’s perfect timing considering Street Fighter V comes out in February.

Here is the trailer:
