Telltale Games Russian Ambassador
In the recently released chapter for the Telltale Games Batman game, there is a scene where Bruce Wayne is going over some local crimes. One of the crimes he sees is a bank robbery. The on-screen image of the crime has a dead man in a suit lying on the floor. It was eventually found out by Twitter user BroTeamPill that the man was, in fact, a cut and pasted image of the recently assassinated Russian ambassador who was shot at an art museum. Telltale have since removed the man from the image in a game update and claim to be handling the issue internally.

Blizzard’s eSports Arena
Blizzard Entertainment has finished and opened up the eSport facility they’ve been building in LA, premiering it with the first round of the Overwatch Contenders program. This place looks amazing. A very official and professional setting. You can check out some shots of the location at the news post I made HERE.

Ninja Theory released a video called the Accolades Trailer, it contains player made screenshots and player sent messages stitched together over heart touching music. Its intended to be an acknowledgment that the company has heard what everyone is saying, and that those with mental illnesses are not alone. It’s very strong in its intention, even including a link to a mini-site for getting help if you need it. You can watch the trailer for yourself here.
