The City of Oakland is poised to reverse a decades-old law that prohibits pinball when the City Council's public safety committee meets later this week.
The law was originally put into place in the 1930s, when pinball machines didn't yet have the flippers that transformed the machines into their current form. The absence of the flippers made pinball a game of chance, and as such, was considered gambling –– players could receive cash payouts from the bar or store if they won.
The cover art for Madden NFL 15 appears to have been outed by retailers.
Both Amazon and GameStop showed cover art earlier today displaying Seattle Sea Hawks cornerback Richard Sherman. GameStop has since pulled cover picture, but Amazon still shows the cover. Thoughts?

On the heels of last month’s DLC map-pack for Titanfall, EA and Respawn are at E3 showing off two new modes for their online shooter: “Marked for Death,” and “Wingman.”
“Marked for Death” is exactly what it sounds like, with one pilot from each team becoming the target for a limited period of time. As soon as one of the marked for death targets is killed, two new players are selected. The new mode injects freshness into the game, and keeps things moving along at a brisk pace.
“Wingman: Last Titan Standing” will introduce a 2v2 mode into Last Titan Standing, and will be Titanfall’s first non 6v6 gameplay.
Titanfall is also getting Burn Cards for Titans, with amped weapons and abilities similar to the options available for pilots. Also, players will now have the ability to unlock customizations for their Titans, which will be retroactive – meaning if you’ve already reached a level to unlock a decal, it will be available to you immediately.
The DLC pack will come with new art for the menu screens, and allow you to toggle the music heard in the lobby. There will also be improvements to matchmaking, with better balancing of teams, shuffling players around based on their skill level. The game will also show when a new player has entered the lobby.
EA didn't give a release date for the June update.
You can have up to 8 players in Dead Island 2! You play with or against them. The game is set in Hollywood, San Francisco and one other to be named at a latter date. Dead Island 2 will be a PlayStation 4 Exclusive. A beta will be coming late this year
Remember if you want to get caught up on all the E3 game trailers head over to our YouTube page where you can watch over 40 Videos. Plus we're updating it all day!
The Last of Us and Shadow of the Colossus will both feature in the Diablo 3 Ultimate Evil Edition, with special enemies, skins and a playable level for PlayStation 3 and PS4 users.
Announced at Sony's E3 news conference on Monday, Blizzard has since shed a little more light on what the inclusions mean. In a nephalem rift inspired by The Last of Us, the player may battle the stalker, clicker and bloater infected from the game in a randomized dungeon level.
Shadow of the Colossus appears with the "Guise of the Colossi," a set of plans that unlock six armor appearances inspired by the PS2 game. Every class in Diablo 3 may wear the armor.
The Diablo 3 Ultimate Evil Edition launches on Aug. 19 for PS3 and PS4.
After two successful Zelda projects on Wii U and 3DS, Nintendo unveiled its first details and visual style for the next console installment of The Legend of Zelda. It is scheduled for release in 2015.
Nintendo Producer Eiji Aonuma began his portion of the presentation by revisiting a now-familiar topic: How the development team is "rethinking the conventions of Zelda." Aonuma explored this theme previously in Wind Waker HD and A Link Between Worlds, but this time he focused his thoughts this time around Zelda's world.
Aonuma admits Nintendo captured a vast open world in the original NES Zelda game, and the concept slightly changed after the series shifted to 3D polygon graphics. Hardware limitations made it difficult to create one single large landmass for the player to explore; so separate zones were stitched together to make the world seem bigger. A linear path was established to take players on a continuous journey.
Aonuma expressed that he wants to take the series back to those roots of a continuous open world, one where players can visit areas out of order. "That's a convention we should keep," he enthusiastically said.
Visually, the new look for The Legend of Zelda is stunning and full of rich details. In many ways, it looks like a marked improvement on Zelda: Skyward Sword's painterly art style. You can see individual moving blades of grass, mountains and home-like structures off in the distant.
In the brief demo, a cloaked Link sits on horseback until a tentacle monster appears on the horizon. His horse races off with the monster in pursuit, as a few local herders and animals run for cover. The monster pursues Link across a bridge, breaks a portion of the wooden structure ahead of the hero, and moves in to strike. Link rips off his cloak and reveals his outfit, a blue and yellow tunic, and a trusty bow and arrow. He fires two explosive-tipped arrows to stun the beast and then pulls out a special arrow that transforms before the trailer cuts fades to white.
Ubisoft has announced Rainbow Six: Siege in development at Ubisoft Montreal.
The footage shown during the press conference demonstrated an early multiplayer match with one team attempting to rescue a hostage from the opposing forces. Environmental destruction plays a key role in how matches unfold, and it's possible to blast through walls and doors get to your objectives.
BioWare's next Mass Effect game, in development at BioWare Montreal, will allow players to explore New reaches of space on their new consoles. “Imagine what we can do now with new consoles and amazing software,” said BioWare. “It looks fantastic.”
Platinum Games is bringing their next game Scalebound exclusively to Xbox One. Scalebound Trailer
Scalebound, a game where the player fights giant dragons and other monsters, is Platinum Games' new project. Microsoft describes Scalebound as follows:
"The next great adventure from critically acclaimed developer Platinum Games and renowned game director Hideki Kamiya, Scalebound transports you to a distant, hostile world. You’ll come face to face with fearsome creatures, including a formidable dragon — and the bond you forge with this awesome predator will prove crucial to the survival of both worlds."
The footage of the game at E3 during Microsoft's press conference showed a character running away from several dragons and other beasts in a jungle. When surrounded, the creatures began to fight, and the player joined in using supernatural powers.
Moon Studios has announced Ori and the Blind Forest, a gorgeous and atmospheric platformer headed to Xbox One this holiday.
A debut trailer for the title was released, showing off glimpses of gameplay and featuring some stunning music. We'll have it for you shortly, along with much more info on the title.

Sunset Overdrive hits Xbox One on October 28, Insomniac has announced.
At Microsoft's E3 2014 conference today, the developer confirmed the release date alongside rumours for an 8-player online co-op mode called "Chaos Mode".
Killer Instinct: Season 2 is coming to Xbox One this fall, Microsoft revealed during its pre-E3 show.
The teaser trailer for the sophomore season showed off TJ Combo, who's the first new character for Killer Instinct: Season 2. Developer Iron Galaxy Games, which worked on Divekick, is working on the second season, taking over duties from Double Helix, which was acquired by Amazon earlier this year.
The Wall Street Journal claims Titanfall 2 is in the planning stages of development and will come out on PlayStation 4 when finished, along with presumably a PC and Xbox One version. And this isn't the first time reports have surfaced about the follow-up to Titanfall coming to Sony's home console.
Resogun’s Heroes DLC! has been announced contains two new modes and an all-new patch. Unfortunately, they're only telling us about one of the new modes. Survival. Survival Mode revives Resogun’s superb gameplay – gun-shooting, ship-boosting, bomb-laying and all -- but puts an all-new spin on things that makes chasing high scores as much of a necessity as ever. It also makes the entire game a bit more tense, too, since you only have one life to live, and one life only.
This is just a quick look at EA Sports UFC for the PS4. For some reason the announcers audio didn't record everything else did. So it will be interesting to see when the game comes out if it will record or not. EA Sports UFC coming to PS4 Xbox One June 16th

Now to the news. Yet anther delay! This time it's Batman: Arkham Knight, the climactic final chapter of Rocksteady's Arkham series, has been delayed until 2015.
Rocksteady didn't give us a reason why it's been delayed. But as soon as we find out we will let you know. That now makes 5 big games this year to be delayed to 2015. What are your thoughts?
Microsoft has announced Forza Horizon 2, the next installment in their flagship racing series. Forza Horizon 2 is in development for Xbox One and Xbox 360 and due for release this fall. What do you think? is it to early to release another Forza?
Mortal Kombat X has been officially announced for a 2015
Mortal Kombat X will be released on PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, according to Warner Bros.
Given the fact the game will be cross-generational, it seems likely that the below trailer isn't made from gameplay footage, but so far both WB and NetherRealm have remained mum on exactly what it shows off. The game will apparently be on show at E3 next week, so hopefully we'll be able to tell you more very soon.
The studio has also claimed that MKX "launches players into a persistent online contest where every fight matters in a global battle for supremacy. For the first time, Mortal Kombat X gives players the ability to choose from multiple variations of each character impacting both strategy and fighting style. Players step into an original story showcasing some of the game’s most prolific characters including Scorpion and Sub-Zero, while introducing new challengers that represent the forces of good and evil and tie the tale together."
