Heads up Game of Thrones fans, the release date for season 2 has just been announced for DVD and Blu-Ray. As with the previous season the box-set will land just before the next one begins to air – gotta build that anticipation! In case you missed it, season 3 will premiere on March 31 2013, with Thrones-philes able to run through the second season on their platform of choice from March 6.
The first season of HBO’s hit show was the fastest selling TV Blu-Ray of all time, so prepare to see a lot of crowns held aloft on shelves next year. Both the DVD and Blu-Ray version will come with a large selection of extras, and as with most releases the Blu-Ray will sport a few extra treats.
Notable inclusions are a making of for the crucial Battle of Blackwater episode, commentaries from the cast and crew and animated histories of Westeros and Essos lore voiced by the headlining characters (Blu-Ray only for the last). The Battle of Blackwater episode was huge in scope and cost, so it’s certainly the episode to pick on for a closer look.

Get ready to ‘wipe out’ with Activision’s WipeOut 3 for the Wii U. WipeOut 3 is now available for the Wii U and features over 200 super wacky and occasionally fun obstacles courses to take on.
The game is of course based on the popular game show WipeOut in which contestants must attempt to make it through some wacky obstacle courses but mostly just fall off big red balls and get punched in their balls by a wall of fists which then become red.
The Wii U Gamepad will be a pivotal part of the game which will allow the player using the Gamepad to essentially try to cause the other players to mess up their obstacle course run otherwise known as trolling.
What do you think of WipeOut 3 coming out on the Wii U? Will you be checking out this game? Let us know in the comments section below.
