‘Overwatch’ travels to Havana for its latest map
[ad_1] As ever in Escort maps, you’ll need to guide a payload (this time a truck of rum barrels) to a trio of checkpoints or prevent it from reaching the end to pick up a victory. The map follows a similar path to Storm Rising, starting at a car garage and winding through a rum […]

Microsoft’s Xbox E3 showcase is set for June 9th
[ad_1] There are some clues as to what might appear. A leaked memo from Microsoft’s Phil Spencer suggested that the company would “go big” with news about its Project xCloud game streaming service.
