You might remember a story from a couple weeks ago about Nathaniel, he sent in his autographed X-box 360 in to get it repaired and they sent back the 360 with all the autographs and pictures wiped clean.... Nathaniel had traveled around with his 360 getting autographs from Dozens of people from the 360 team as well as from Bungie, now all his hard work was erased. You might also remember a week or 2 after that Bungie sended Nathaniel a Halo 3 themed goody bag along with autographs from the Bungie team.
Included in that Goody-Bag(incase you didn't see the original story) was
* Legendary Edition Helmet signed by most–if not all–of the studio staff

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
