MGSV Limited Edition PS4 Has A Typo Printed On It



Every so often PlayStation announce a limited edition console for an upcoming game, this time it was the highly anticipated, heavy criticized Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. 

Pictures of the console surfaced on NeoGaf over the weekend and one Reddit user pointed out quite a big mistake. Over the top of the console is printed a fake warning label that reads "Do not use molybdeum lubrication" the type is in the chemical name which should read "Molybdenum" Pictures can be seen below!

Although the print isn't noticeable to most user's it will be a mark to the consoles name and will forever be remembered by this mistake. No news from Konami about if there are plans to fix this mistake but i'd be very surprised if they noticed and decided to leave the type for money purposes.

Borderlands Movie In The Pipelines!



Lionsgate studios, the guys behind the Hunger Games films are in search for a new franchise to bring to the big screen and they think they've found what they're looking for. The Production company are in talks with Gearbox studios, the developers of hit FPS RPG Borderlands.

The game Borderlands takes you to the land of Pandora, A planet as full of minerals and treasure as it is aliens and monsters. You play as one of 4 characters, treasure hunting for the lands most glorious loot heading on quests and mission to get just that. The game is jam-packed with dirty, crude and damn right hilarious jokes and humour that will create an interesting challenge for Lionsgate to portray into the film.

Co-chairs, Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger have already stated "The Borderlands games don't pull any punches, and we'll make the movie with the same in-your-face attitude that has made the series a blockbuster mega-franchise" which gives me hope they can break this bad name of Video game movie adaptations. With the recent Pixels and Hitman Agent 47 films stinking out the box office, it will be nice to see a video game movie smash the charts and show the people that video games done correctly, CAN be made into movies.

"Lionsgate really seems to get Borderlands and we're giving a mission to them, to make the first good movie based on a video game, and knowing Borderlands, its probably going to be rated R." said Gearbox's Randy Pitchford in an interview. To be honest I really hope he's right with the R rating as Borderlands is known for its gore and dirty jokes and to make it any other way would be destroying its name. No news as of yet if they'll be going down the road of Borderlands 1 or 2 but in all honesty, ether one will bring an amazing outcome. I personally am wishing for a Mad-Max style wasteland adventure following the cast of the 2nd game.

The film is still in VERY early development and has no scheduled time line for release subscribe to the blog or 3NERDY5ME on Twitter to stay posted with all the latest gaming and movie news.

To beging with their was the Spanish retailers leak of a Shovel Knight Amiibo. Well, NintendoLife recently shared a few details about their talks with multiple retailers about the recent rumours of a Shovel Knight and think they've figured this all out

"We've been in touch with multiple sources within the video game retail sector - which we sadly can't name as it could lead to their dismissal - who claim that Shovel Knight is indeed about to make his Smash Bros. début, and there WILL be an Amiibo figure to accompany this grand event"

They go on to explain how Yacht Club (Shovel Knight Developers) made a statement about their upcoming DLC. "We've heard the cries of bringing more exclusive content to Nintendo platforms. It might not be quite what you expect.. but keep an eye out for another MEGATON announcement soon" Both Yacht Club and Nintendo have booked kiosks at the PAX event and NintendoLife speculates this could be where they plan to reveal all! They have faith that these past fake rumours of His appearance could be "Very, Very real"
