Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded to Have New HD Scenes
The Kingdom Hearts franchise, outside of the first two PS2 titles, is a rather hit and miss affair, storyline wise.

First Glimpse of Shadow of Mordor
Shadow of Mordor was revealed a few weeks ago for next-gen systems, current-gen systems and PC, and while it sounded pretty damn impressive, there was little to actually judge it by.
