No Man's Sky Gameplay Leaked After Fan Buys Copy For $1300
"We've Spent Years Filling No Man's Sky With Excitement "
After a recent leak of gameplay due to a fan getting his hands on a copy of the game for $1300.
Although this may put players mind at ease (or spark them) founder of Hello Games Sean Murray posted on twitter an announcement:
"We’ve spent years filling No Man’s Sky with surprises. You've spent years waiting. Please don't spoil it for yourself :( "
He then goes on to say:
"Take a break from reading about it, and picking vids apart. You can experience for yourself so soon."
Despite the posts many people have watched the video and found it has no spoilers (unless of course you count seeing the new UI a spoiler).
No Man's Sky has been delayed for PC to 10th August for US and 12th August for UK. Whether this delay was in anger of fans or just some issues it still remains unknown.

10 Things Borderlands 3 needs
The 'Big One'
Earlier this year Gearbox announced they are working on Borderlands 3 as Battleborn's DLC is nearly finished, but what's coming for the next installment?
Cyber Pixel News presents 10 things Borderlands 3 needs.
This list is in order of least to most.
10. Old Characters Returning
One thing that made Borderlands 2 the best out of the 3 is the return of old characters. It would be fun to see the Borderlands 2 characters returning (and the remaining borderlands 1 and pre sequel characters) into Borderlands 3.
This is likely (spoiler alert!) because at the end of the pre sequel the alien speaks of a war coming and the vault hunters need all the help they can get.
9/10 extremely likely to happen
9. A Housing System
Wouldn't it be cool to have somewhere to store all your hard earned loot? Of course the crimson raiders safehouse does that, to an extent.
Imagine a house in (insert city/town name here) where you can use shelves to show off your weapons. You can also decorate this house but the more items you add into the house the more likely raiders attack it. If you defend your house successfully you can earn loot from what the raider boss drops.
3/10 highly unlikely to happen
8. New Gun Brands
Sure there are a hefty amount of gun brands in the borderlands universe already but wouldn't it be cool to add more brands? The pre sequel did this sucsessfully by adding the scav brand.
I would like to see a Marcus Munitions Brand
6/10 unlikely but at the same time likely
7. New Vehicles
Speaking of new brands what about vehicles? Well when we look at previous additions of Borderlands its highly unlikely they wouldn't add vehicles.
10/10 Definitely going to happen
6. Easier Map Creation Kit
Very few mods existed in Borderlands 1 and 2 which added new areas. The creation of a map creator would greatly improve the lifetime of Borderlands 3.
4/10 very unlikely to happen
5. A Ton Of DLC
Another reason Borderlands 2 was successful was the fact the DLC was fresh and interesting. Borderlands 3 would benefit greatly from new DLC giving players a reason to re play the game again.
9/10 extremely likely to happen
4. Different Planets
The pre sequels move to Pandora's moon, Elpis was a rewarding one. Possibly including a galaxy of planets in the upcoming installment could benefit.
I want to know what promethea looks like.
And even travelling in spaceships with space combat.
4/10 very unlikely to happen
3. Arena Battles
Imagine using all your hard earned loot to enter an arena and compete for whatever special currency will be next against other players. Arena battles would enhance the game but problems would occur with not enough players.
2/10 near impossible to happen
2. Easter Eggs!
Borderlands 2 was FILLED with easter eggs. From Minecraft to Bioshock most of us spent countless hours searching for hidden secrets Gearbox cleverly hidden. Borderlands 3 could have endless opportunities for easter eggs (as long as other developers allowed it).
10/10 definitely going to happen
1. Create Your Own Vault Hunter
In Borderlands you can choose a name for your vault hunter (or leave it default) and choose their clothes, but what if you can completley customize them?
Imagine being able to choose their body weight, tone of voice, eye colour, ear size etc etc.
And with 10 skill trees to choose from this could generate thousands, if not millions of combinations of vault hunters.
5/10 unsure if it's going to happen
I hope you've enjoyed today's top 10 list and we want to know what features you want to see in borderlands 3 in the comments.

ARK: Survival Evolved Free For The Weekend
Studio Wildcard's Best Game Yet
Alongside Rainbow Six Siege, the Rust like dinosaur game is free for the weekend.
When I first heard about ARK I passed it off as a rust clone. Then my friends started playing it. I decided to give it a try and I was completely wrong about it, this game is better than Rust.
Since the games early access release to the public in June 2015, Ark Survival Evolved has seen endless updates and community events, it's even had a free version released. Despite the games optimization problems the community have helped Studio Wildcard to develop their game in time for December for its official release.
Steam now offers all users a chance to play this game for free until Sunday or the game for a discounted price of £11.49 ($15.25) (A$20.09).
If you are interested in this you can go to here
or here to read about Rainbow Six which is also free this weekend.

Why I'm Excited For No Man's Sky
10th August Is Nearly Upon Us
When I first hear about No Man's Sky I thought of unending galaxies to explore.
That was 2 years ago.
Fastforward to 2016 and in 2 weeks No Man's Sky will be released to the world.
Trading
Admit it. We've all wondered how Han Solo got his millennium falcon. Of course getting that ship would require money and possibly earning it by trading. This is one of the key aspects No Man's Sky has, trading. It has also been mentioned that some places will buy certain items for a higher price than others which creates an interesting challenge for traders.
Exploring
This is one of the main things you will spend most of your time doing in No Man's Sky, exploring. Walking across planets, finding new species, discovering alien languages it's definite you will never get bored of exploring.

Fighting
Over the years fighting (or combat) has become a must in action games. With Ariel and ground combat shown in the following trailer we will never be short of a dog fight.
Surviving
Last but not least is surviving. With radiation, cold and hot planets you will have to equip the best equipment to survive.
