A Reddit user named derptemp6698 was the first one to break news about the Rebellion DLC. His original Reddit post was almost three weeks before the accidental posting by Sony Hong Kong.

Entertainment Link-Off: Origin of Life
Alright, now we’re back on schedule. It’s another Saturday, so it’s time for another edition of the Entertainment Link-Off. So you could go watch the third Madagascar film, but I think it’s more worthwhile to check out the quasi-Alien prequel Prometheus. Sure the story is compelling but you got some eye candy courtesy of Charlize Theron and Noomi Rapace (pictured).
After the jump, DC wants to follow Marvel’s superhero ensemble concept, some Prometheus related tidbits, take a look at the behind the scenes of The Amazing Spider-Man, first look at Pacific Rim, Charlie Sheen wasn’t #winning and an apocalypse started by the consumption of a single banana.

F1 Power Rankings: Canadian Grand Prix
After six races, we’ve seen six different race winners and six different drivers set the fastest lap of the race. It looks like removing downforce through the exhaust-blown diffuser ban has levelled the playing field as parity is at an all-time high. With any one of a number of drivers capable of winning any given Sunday, it’s hard to figure out who are the best drivers in F1 right now. I suppose that’s why this week’s F1 Power Ranking has so much change in it. Continue reading
2012 F1 Canadian GP: Drivers And Teams Primer
For the second part of our preview of the 2012 Formula One Canadian Grand Prix, we take a look at the drivers and teams who will be contesting this weekend’s race.

The Nintendo press conference at E3 was really in two parts this year. The first part was Sunday’s Nintendo Direct video presentation which showed off some of the hardware behind their new Wii U console.

E3 2012: The EA and Ubisoft Report
Because of our interest in what EA had to say about Mass Effect 3, we were eagerly anticipating this year’s EA press conference. Unfortunately, we were left disappointed. There were previews of Dead Space 3, Crysis 3, Sim City and the usual EA Sports properties. Over on the Ubisoft side of things, we saw more of Assassin’s Creed 3 and the debut of a new game which looks so good that it could be a next gen game. Continue reading
