This is looking like a good successor series to The Clone Wars

Let us know below what you think of the new Disney headed reveal

The news has just been announced that Battleline Hardline, the latest installment in the Battlefield series in which you take the action from the battlefield of martial combat as a soldier to that of the city streets as a police officer or criminal, has had its release date pushed back to some time in 2015.

While originally scheduled to be released in a matter of months, DICE and Visceral said they have pushed back the release to work on a number of things the feedback they got from the Beta brought up. This includes multiplayer “innovation”, single-player story depth and stability, the last one being of gigantic importance after the problems that the last installment Battlefield 4 had even months after its launch and the reputation it gained as a result.

“This has been a focus for our team since day one and we’re going to be using the extra time to continue to optimize the game for a stable launch,” said DICE VP Troedsson, saying that the team learned a lot from Battlefield 4, more from the Hardline Beta and that the extra time would give them a chance to find and squash those issues before the game’s actual launch.

As of about an hour ago, Hearthstone’s single player adventure expansion, Curse of Naxxramas has launched to all players of the game.

The expansion will be downloaded upon opening the game launcher, and during the launch event which will last through to sometime in Early September (although a concrete end date hasn’t been announced) the first wing of the expansion, The Arachnid Quarter, will be available free to all players who have already unlocked all 9 of the playable Hero classes in the game.

The expansion has a further 4 wings to play, which can be purchased with in-game gold (700 per wing) or with real money (5.99 EUR/ 4.99 GBP per wing). Blizzard is also offering package deals to buy more than one chapter at a time for a slightly reduced price.

If you want to go fight the bosses and undead hoardes though, wait a little while. Currently both the North American and the European servers have been experiencing problems that are causing them to crash as the servers are being taxed with the player surge. We will update when both servers are back to normal.

Today another bunch more of the new Naxxramas cards were revealed to us on the Hearthstone Facebook. Again they’re all very ‘death’ related, but there’s a bit more variety now in the effects they have:

All weekend, BBC’s catch-up TV service iPlayer has been suffering major outages across the UK.

Fans of the UK’s licence-fee-paid TV provider first started complaining that they were unable to access television shows via the BBC’s iPlayer service on Saturday morning. BBC is still “working to restore normal service”, with many people being offered only a “simplified” experience via the website; and dedicated iPlayer apps such as those seen on YouView boxes and games consoles, or on smart phones, remain down for many viewers.

BBC did not respond to complaints about the outage until Sunday morning, when Twitter account @AboutTheBBC posted the following:

We're hoping to get @BBCiPlayer @BBCiPlayerRadio & @bbccouk up and running for all of you soon. We apologise for the inconvenience. #iPlayer

— BBC (@AboutTheBBC) July 20, 2014

At one point, the BBC News website and radio service were also affected by the outage.

Despite continuing complaints to the BBC, the corporation has chosen not to reply to individual tweets posted to them and merely continue to deliver pre-prepared tweets about the status of their services. The last update was over 12 hours ago however; and BBC have not offered any explanations yet as to the cause of the downtimes.
