#40 Destiny, Assassin's Creed & Bioshock

So we're back after a week (and a bit - sorry about the delay!) off with a full house this time, to go over some of the more salient bits of news over the past couple of weeks, including Activision's recent earnings call and some release date shenanigans regarding Evolve and Shadows of Mordor. There's also been a few new game announcements, including a second Assassin's Creed title for 2014 (as if annual iterations weren't already enough!) and couple of surprisingly welcome re-releases.
