THE BIG STUFF:
Halo Returns to PC With Halo Online, But Only in Russia for Now: One of the week's biggest pieces of news was one we did not see coming. A Russia-only Halo game for PC? Crazy! There's no word yet on if it's coming to North America, but you can watch a gameplay trailer here.
Batman: Arkham Knight Release Date Delayed Again: It happened again, but thankfully, this delay is a short one. The new Caped Crusader game from Rocksteady has been pushed a couple of weeks from its previously schedule June 2 release to a new launch date of June 23. At least there's an epic new gameplay trailer to enjoy.
Batman: Arkham Due Remastered for PS4 and Xbox One, Report Claims: A new report this week claimed that Rocksteady's first two Batman Arkham games, Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, will be getting remastered versions for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This is unconfirmed at the moment, so take this with a grain of salt for now.
THE OTHER STUFF:
Want to try BioWare's Mass Effect 3? You're in luck, as BioWare is now offering a free, one-hour trial of the 2012 game for PlayStation 3. The only catch is that you need a PlayStation Plus membership.
It's not Star Wars: Battlefront, but a new Star Wars game is out this week. Star Wars Rebels: Recon Missions is available now for iOS, Android, and Windows devices. The game, a side-scrolling mobile action-platformer set in the Star Wars Rebels universe, lets you play as characters from the TV show.

The Best Dad Ever™ has spent $100,000 to recreate Jurassic Park in LEGO form for his eight-year-old daughter. D'awwww.
Maybe you saw the recent story that claimed to have some information about Rock Band 4's tracklist? Well, it's not accurate, according to Harmonix's Eric Pope. Some of the rumored tracks included Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud" and "Ain't It Fun" by Paramore.
Whoa, man. Majora's Mask mixed with Donnie Darko actually works? Yes, it does.
Want to learn English or Spanish using your Xbox One? Now you can. Rosetta Stone has released a free "Discover Languages" app for Microsoft's new console that promises "immersive simulation."

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has a prediction for the future, and it's a dark one. "Like people including Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk have predicted, I agree that the future is scary and very bad for people," he says in a new interview. "If we build these devices to take care of everything for us, eventually they'll think faster than us and they'll get rid of the slow humans to run companies more efficiently." What do you think?
LEGO fans, this one's for you. Warner Bros. and TT Games this week released the latest LEGO game, LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin.

What does Gears of War designer Cliff Bleszinski think about VR? We now have a much better idea, as the veteran game developer has published a lengthy blog post on the subject. Something to consider, though, is that--being an early round investor in Oculus VR-- he has a vested interest in seeing the technology succeed.
The second part of the Pillars of Eternity documentary, which chronicles the game's development--including its wildly successful Kickstarter and development process--is now available. Called "Road to Eternity," you can watch it for free right here.
