It’s time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights, it’s time to meet the news on the News Snatch show tonight! Welcome everyone to News Snatch, the show that according to the very first News Snatch from six years ago is “Taking an irrelevant and light hearted look at the more obscure stories from the world of gaming, poking them with a big stick and hoping to god they don’t bite back.”
We begin this latest Snatch with music, a brand new song from GlaDOS which can be heard during the credits of LEGO Dimensions.

Kanye West has ranted about in-app purchases and this has put a lot of people in the difficult and uncomfortable position where they find themselves agreeing with something the deluded egomaniac has said.
To celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Deus Ex series, a number of key scenes have been animated.
Starcraft II: Legacy of the Void has a three mission prologue which now completely free.
Hurrah! Shotguns have been nerfed in the Cruicible in Destiny!
One piece of community feedback that has been unanimous is that the changes to Shotgun perks were not enough to curb their lethality at extreme ranges in the Crucible. The prevalence of Shot Package on almost every long-range Shotgun has effectively redefined the close-quarters combat experience. Going forward, we’ll continue to dial in Shotgun range.
With the deployment of Update 2.0.1, we will wholesale remove the Shot Package perk from all Shotguns. Any shotgun with Shot Package (depending on the exact weapon) will now have Close and/or Personal, Crowd Control, or Knee Pads. This change has not negatively impacted our PVE playtests.
The latest Fallout 4 S.P.E.C.I.A.L. video which looks at the intelligence stat.
To celebrate Until Dawn the chaps at Wimbledon Sounds have created an “immersive binaural audio experience.”
Binaural audio uses recording techniques that simulate the way human ears work, creating a sense of presence that surround sound isn’t able to emulate. If you want to be terrified, shove on some headphones and start the video.
Three videos to finish up with, first a look at Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege.
The we have a little Just Cause 3 action.
And Finally, some new “inner armour” for the MMO Terra.
