Bungie posted this recently on their blog.

For more than a decade, Marty O’Donnell filled our worlds with unforgettable sounds and soundtracks, and left an indelible mark on our fans. Today, as friends, we say goodbye. We know that wherever his journey takes him, he will always have a bright and hopeful future.

We wish him luck in all his future endeavors.

However it seems things didn't end at good terms as David Dague suggested. In a tweet that came out on "April 15, 2014", Marty explains how Bungie's board of directors terminated him without cause on April 11, 2014.

I'm saddened to say that Bungie's board of directors terminated me without cause on April 11, 2014.
— Marty O'Donnell (@MartyTheElder) April 16, 2014

Many are speculating that there is something going on behind the scenes at Bungie since it wasn't that long ago that Bungie separated ways with Joseph Staten, who wrote the majority of the Halo story.

- A game about people pretending to be airplanes?

Kotaku quoted it best, "Sometimes a headline and a video are really all you need. "

Cult of the Wind is a game about people who pretend to be airplanes.

"In an unknown time and place, a cult that worships the wreckage of ancient airplanes gathers to mimic the dogfights of old. With the peak of humanity far behind, their world is a mausoleum to a lush and verdant Art Deco past."

In Cult of the Wind, players compete and cooperate in ritualistic multi-player human dogfights, complete with imaginary weapons, pretend explosions, and airplane noises made with their mouths. Shower your friends in a hail of imaginary bullets and proclaim, "I got you! You have to lie down," to which they respond, "Nuh-uh, I have a shield." You argue about whether or not airplanes can have shields, meanwhile some other guy does a cannonball onto your head while whistling. It's great.

With an intuitive point-and-click level editor you'll be able to craft new levels or modify existing ones, then immediately share them with anyone on a server, even if you aren't the host. You can also craft a personalized appearance for your character with numerous articles of clothing and animations.

- Microsoft says its Final Good Bye to Windows XP with a video

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

We all know that Windows XP is now officially unsupported since April 8, 2014 but many can't let go and more specifically Businesses and Fans who doubted Windows since the flop that was Windows Vista.

Winows XP was released to the public on October 25, 2001 and introduced a significantly redesigned interface as well was the first version of Windows to use product activation in an effort to prevent piracy. Compared to Windows ME it had increased performance, more intuitive user interface, improved hardware support, and its expanded multimedia capabilities. Where Windows XP shined the most was its sales as it sold at 400 million copies with in the first five years and sold at least one billion copies overall by April 2014.

Not all is lost because although Windows 8 seems like replay of Windows Vista but dare I say it? A much better version of Vista... it still isn't ready for use like XP was and it's mainly due to large set of bugs that keep appearing faster than they can get rid of them. However this is where Windows 7 shines its proudest as it is the one who holds the other largest share of users.

Microsoft has reminded us how amazing Windows XP was these past months but the best thing they showed us was the truth behind that famous wallpaper. Watch the video below to see the full story.

- Tales of Hearts is coming to the west but it's probably not the one you wanted

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Tales of Hearts will be coming to US according to a page GameStop accidentally released to early. Tales of Hearts is a JRPG that was originally released on the Nintendo DS in 2008 and later saw a remake titled Tales of Hearts R for the PlayStation Vita. The game centers around mainly two characters, 17 year old "Amber Hearts" and 16 year old "Shing Meteoryte" where they battle enemies known as Zerom.

While it is good news it hasn't really been clarified whether or not it's a port of the old game which financially would be convenient since it's already in multiple languages; or perhaps its Tales of Heart R which is also very likely since it already exists on the PlayStation Vita in Japan.

Many have reached out to Bandai Namco for comments but haven't received a reply.

- DirectX 12 is on the way, but Windows 7 not confirmed to get it?

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

As GDC comes to an end, we are here to fill you in on what we saw and experienced!

Microsoft has just announced that DirectX 12, which is the latest version of the company's graphics APIs, at the 2014 Game Developers Conference. What was pretty surprising is that many existing computers, smartphones, and even the Xbox One will see boosts in performance when the new tools arrive. Usually when new versions of DirectX are released they promise users beautiful graphics for your games in exchange of letting go some big bucks to get the latest chips. However, Microsoft has said that DirectX 12 will run on their existing chips. Microsoft however declined to answer to the public whether or not DX12 will support Windows 7.

Somethings that were not cleared up were how much of a performance improvement will we be seeing on Xbox One games, Smartphones or PCs. They showed some charts showing that the APIs could halve the time a single CPU core spends on a task by offloading it to the GPU, and claims that DX12 can lead to using less power towards graphics processing on smart phones as well. 

Microsoft says DX12 games will arrive around 2015, however we can expect to see some previews available later this year.

- Xbox One's new bundle removes price disadvantage and $50

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

*Walmart and Best Buy have started selling the Xbox One console bundled with a copy of Titanfall for $450, that makes it at par with Sony's PlayStation 4 if not cheaper due to game price increases for Next Gen Console games.

Sure the bundle next to a PlayStation 4 alone doesn't make it less but a PlayStation 4 bundled with PlayStation Plus is $450, and a PlayStation 4 bundled with Infamous: Second Son is at $460. If compared between game bundles the Xbox One is indeed $10 cheaper.

*Titanfall Bundle includes: 
The Xbox One console
Kinect sensor
Wireless controller
Chat headset
HDMI cable
1-month Xbox Live Gold membership
Titanfall game download—note that it’s a download

* = (UPDATE) This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles. (And my smashing grammar)

This now bumps up the PlayStation 4 closer towards the 6 million sales, with Xbox One following at 3.5 million sales. The PlayStation 4 also did better than the Wii U at launch (Only pulled in 308,570 at launch). However at the end no system has yet matched the Nintendo Wii (371,936; at launch) and PS2 (630,522; at launch) sales.

Within the past two weeks the PlayStation sold 5.3 million units world wide, as of now it is confirmed to have reached over 5.4 million units sold. Japan truly helped pull in some numbers.

- Naughty Dog says there's a 50/50 chance for The Last of Us 2

Naughty Dog has revealed that a sequel to The Last of Us  may have a chance of not happening at all, although Sony has given them the complete freedom to create a sequel if they choose to.

In previous news, a Brazilian website had claimed the The Last of Us 2 was already going into production and that it was set for a release in 2015, but lacked the confirmation from the game studio, Naughty Dog. Naughty Dog has only gone as far as to say that a sequel for The Last of Us was under consideration.

As of now the way it stands, Naughty Dog's Senior Studio Staff, says's seeing a sequel is at 50% at best. This statement was confirmed when the The Last of Us creative director Neil Druckmann and Game Director Bruce Stanley fielded questions from fans on a AMA (Ask Me Anything) session on Reddit.

They also went on to explain how Sony has complete faith in them after The Last of Us was a commercial hit for Sony. Druckmann went on to say, "It's really up to us to come up with something that will keep the team inspired for the next several years - which is why we don't take the decision of what we'll work on next lightly."

What would you want Naughty Dog to continue towards a sequel for The Last of Us? Or do you believe that the game ended the way it should have and Naughty Dog is better off creating a new franchise altogether?
