The Flash / Supergirl Crossover Is the Perfect Antidote to BvS
There is a certain thrill to seeing two superheroes come face-to-face for the first time. This past weekend, audiences showed up in record numbers to see Warner Bros.' current Batman (Ben Affleck) and Superman (Henry Cavill) come face-to-face -- and then fist-to-fist -- in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. On Monday (March 28), a similar meeting of minds is going to take place on television: The CW's The Flash (Grant Gustin) is going to accidentally find himself on the same Earth as CBS's Supergirl (Melissa Benoist).
It's the different ways in which these two properties bring their characters together that highlights why The Flash / Supergirl crossover is a breath of fresh air coming off the doom and gloom of BvS.

PlayStation 4.5 Announcement May Come Before PSVR
We could be hearing something official about the so-called PlayStation 4.5 or PlayStation 4K before October.
According to The Wall Street Journal, sources familiar with the matter say the new console will "be announced before the planned October release of the PlayStation VR." So far, Sony has declined to comment on all rumors.
The WSJ's source also reports that, despite the higher-powered hardware, "it is likely that the current model and the coming one would share the same software catalog."
We first caught wind of an upgraded PlayStation 4 console earlier this month, and that report was backed up by another one a week later which said it is being referred to as the PlayStation 4K.
