"Gamers petition politicians to stop full immersion simulations, the new craze amongst youngsters. 'Unlike in video games, people using these dreaded contraptions cannot tell truth from reality. It turns them into murderers and rapists. Won't anyone think of the children?' says representative coolxboxdude666."

[HEADING=3]HUMANITY IS NOT DOOMED![/HEADING]

Yesterday, the activation of the Skynet world security network almost led to disaster as the super computer attempted to access all WMDs in the world to destroy humanity. Fortunately, the core software written by Microsoft had an unusual bug that blue-screened the entire system in under half a minute. Bill Gates responded to the possibility that his computers harbor pure evil by saying, "Well, it was certainly unexpected. I hope the Mother Brain project we sent into space with the colonists turns out better than this.".

[HEADING=3]Jack Thompson Explodes, Killing 87,000.[/HEADING]

No explanation has been determined for this, the greatest tragedy faced in recent times. For whatever reason, the ex-attorney was in Los Angelas when he suddenly exploded with enough force to form a crater visible from orbit. Reconstructions of the scene via satellite recording indicate that he was being held up by a man in a Mario costume holding a machine gun. Why this would cause him to explode is still a mystery.

[HEADING=3]Megaman 85 Hits The Shelves.[/HEADING]

Capcom released the 85th iteration of the Megaman franchise, featuring Dr. Wily as the villain once more from the comfort of his retirement home facility for the clinically insane. Robot Masters seem to to be made from whatever his surroundings were at the time, thus we have...

Medicman
Senileman
TVman
Wheelchairman
Toiletman
Bedpanman
ReallyOldMan
and Deadman.

Also featured in an extra DLC, Mario cameos in the game as 'Plungerman'.

[HEADING=3]Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw Does It Again.[/HEADING]

The infamous reviewer/writer/developer ended his week-long 'Flipping You The Bird' session with curious reporters to announce that he's finally gotten his new game, "Tfarcraw Fo Dlrow", off the ground and should be completed by the end of the week. He apologizes for any delays, but "Unlike some bastards in the gaming industry, I want to put out something that isn't half-finished and full of fucking bugs". The controversal 'backwards leveling game' he envisioned back in 2011 is said to be the greatest game ever since Blizzard's WTF, the sequel to the high-grossing game that they'll charge us $23,000 just to mention anymore.

"XBox 1080 catches on fire if you look at it."
Since it appears people think that we will just multiply 360 by 2 (the "Xbox 720" is the term random journalists use to describe a theoretical future XBox), and if we further assume that there will be an average of 10 years between consoles it would be the Xbox 5760. Also the headline would be:

"Xbox 5760 sets people on fire if they cease 'fun time mining activity #7' before the end of their designated enjoyment period".
