Destiny 2 Players Have Glitched Their Way to New Raid Gear a Week Early
Destiny 2 players are sporting some fancy new gear ahead of this week's raid, thanks to a glitch in the game.
The Forsken's raid, Last Wish, doesn't go live until the end of this week, but players have accessed the new area already and gotten themselves the raid gear for their troubles. You can too, for as long as Bungie lets the glitch slide.
Reddit user ozberk shared the details over on Reddit (via Eurogamer) saying that they and their clanmates found a raid chest containing a hand cannon and raid chest armour.
Marvel’s Spider-Man: Insomniac Offers to Remove the World’s ‘Saddest Easter Egg’
Insomniac Games has offered to remove a marriage proposal Easter egg for a player after finding out that his relationship ended just weeks before Spider-Man launched.
Back in May, Tyler Schultz tweeted Insomniac Games asking the developer to help him out with his marriage proposal to his girlfriend of five years. The devs agreed and on release, players found Schultz' Easter egg proposal emblazoned on a movie theatre marquee in-game. The only hiccup in all of this is that Tyler is now single, and upon hearing the news, Insomniac art director, Jacinda Chew, offered to remove the Easter egg by changing the sign to something else.
Sony Pre-TGS Conference: Every New Game Announced
Sony held a pre-Tokyo Game Show conference, the PlayStation Lineup Tour, earlier today, and with it came a slew of game announcements.
Here's a list of every new game revealed during the course of the conference:
Kingdom Hearts VR Experience - Seemingly a collection of moments from the Kingdom Hearts series, not much is known about this newly announced collection, beyond the fact that you'll definitely get to swing a Keyblade around. We expect to hear more soon.
Judge Eyes (Project Judge) - The new game from the studio behind the Yakuza series, this is another slightly hazy prospect, but appears to be a narrative action game about solving a series of murders, and follows the lawyers surrounding the case. Here's hoping for the Yakuza/Ace Attorney crossover we never knew we wanted.

Judge Eyes Is the New Game from the Yakuza Studio
The new IP from Yakuza creator Toshihiro Nagoshi is called Judge Eyes.
Teased as a "completely different" game from the development team behind the Yakuza series, the game appears to be a narrative action game that sees players looking into a series of murders.
English translation has referred to the game as "Project Judge" rather than Judge Eyes, so the game may be renamed upon western release.

Who Is the Marvel Hero Teased in Iron Fist: Season 2?
Warning: this article contains spoilers for Iron Fist: Season 2!
Head here for an explanation of how a certain Iron Fist villain could impact Daredevil Season 3, or here for an explanation of the ending of the season.
The Season 2 finale of Iron Fist shakes up the series' status quo in a major way, with Colleen Wing claiming the power of the Iron Fist and a de-powered Danny Rand beginning a globetrotting journey to find his new purpose. But it would seem his superhero days aren't quite over. The final episode ends with Danny and Ward Meachum confronting a group of gangsters working for a mysterious boss named Orson Randall. That's Danny's cue to reveal his newest toys, a pair of mystically charged pistols stolen from Randall himself.
In Honor of Fringe’s 10th Anniversary, We Pick the 10 Best Episodes
Fringe premiered on September 9, 2008, and despite the fact that it never became the ratings success it deserved to be, the smart, inventive sci-fi drama still gave us five seasons and 100 episodes of alternate universe-hopping, time-traveling adventures anchored by Olivia (Anna Torv), Peter (Joshua Jackson) and Walter (John Noble) - and variations thereof.
In honor of Fringe's 10th anniversary, we're taking a look back at what we consider the 10 best episodes of the series. Check out IGN's Top 10 Fringe episodes below.
This was the first part of the two-hour extravaganza that brought the Fringe series to a conclusion, and it was a perfect way to start things off. The importance of Michael (aka Observer Kid) becomes solidified as he turns the tables on Windmark's interrogation techniques and leaves the old cueball bleeding and humbled. Then Olivia, who had been in the background for much of Season 5, comes back to the forefront via a series of cortexiphan injections that get her all juiced up to be Super Olive again. In short order, Olivia is hopping back to the parallel universe to enlist the aid of her alternate self and Lincoln (who haven't aged convincingly, but that's the only gripe with this story). Olivia saves Michael and kicks a whole lot of butt in the process, but the action wasn't the only thing this story had going for it. The theme of liberty was reinforced through the episode's title and the Statue of Liberty in both our world and the "other side". In the parallel universe, where there are no Observers and Fauxlivia and Lincoln have a happy family life, the statue is seen in shimmering copper and lacking the signature green patina we're familiar with. In this future, the statue is practically destroyed, which is certainly an apt metaphor for the destruction of liberties that the observers brought with their invasion. "Liberty" is an episode that pulls off the clever trick of being action-oriented while enhancing the story through a subtle metaphorical theme.
