Happy birthday to everyone’s favourite MMO and RTS series, the return of a rocky old friend, more LEGO, more Bendis, and more reasons to love the head that we’re a hat to. We bow down to our Google overlords, CANADIAN CONTENT! Some protons get smashed (and not THAT kind of smashed) and more Apple tablet rumors. DSLRs make good music videos, robotic arms are closer than you think and a legacy LOL. All this and more on this week’s DTL!
