Internal developer documentation for the Xbox One appears to have leaked on the Internet—and after scanning through the files, it appears that there are some interesting things we can learn from it.
Curious about the future of Destiny? Here's a leak you might find interesting—a graphic purporting to lay out what developer Bungie's got planned for the rest of 2015 and beyond.
Last year, hackers found mythical Pokémon hidden inside X & Y--Diancie, Hoopa, and Volcanion. Since then, one of these Pokémon has been released: Diancie. Two of them, however, haven't. Here's what we know about the most mysterious of the three.
Next year's Assassin's Creed game will take place in London during the 19th century, Kotaku has learned thanks to an early leak. Farewell, Napoleon; hello, Jack the Ripper?

Just as we suspected, a new iPad Air and an iPad Mini are forthcoming. Over on 9to5Mac, Mark Gurman reports that the user guides to two new iPads are showing up—by accident—in iTunes. And yes, Touch ID is coming to both devices, if these guides are to be believed.
Super Smash Bros. for the 3DS isn't technically out yet in Japan...but some folks managed to get the game ahead of time anyway. And they're finding stuff that seems to prove the previous leak true.

In February on r/SquaredCircle, Reddit's pro wrestling forum, one poster kicked off a "prediction series," asking users to pick who they expected to win at that week's Elimination Chamber pay-per-view event.

Halo 4 doesn't come out until November 6th. Millions of people are eagerly awaiting the highly anticipated next chapter in the Master Chief saga, poring over every bit of info released about the game. But some others aren't waiting at all. They're already playing and selling Halo 4.

The forever-rumored reboot of EA's Syndicate franchise, originally created by the defunct Bullfrog Productions in 1993, is real.

Not only is Apple's next iPod Nano said to bring the camera back, but it's also going to run new software for games. Not just Klondike and Vortex, last seen in the fifth-gen model, I'm hoping.

Wolfman! The Mummy! The Creature from the Black Lagoon! Frank Stein! When Universal describes these characters as "Classic Monsters" they aren't joking, considering most of us weren't even born when they were last truly dominating the horror film scene.

If you got that multiplayer build of Wolfenstein that leaked out last week, you should keep that fact to yourself. Chest-beating about it on the Wolfenstein forums will bring instant banning. Maybe worse.
