Grand Theft Auto V, Google Glass, and more - 90 Seconds on The Verge - Thursday, January 31st, 2013
It's Thursday January 31st 2013 I'm Alice Hamburger and I've dared to eat 50 cheeseburgers for my birthday.
As we take a look at the world of video games, it seems that things have been a bit too tame lately. Ford has presented us with "This Is 92s On The Verge," a show that is about to change all that. Grand Theft Auto V, the latest entry in the series from Rockstar Games, has finally announced its release date for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
The game was originally promised to arrive in the spring, but it seems that Rockstar Games needs just a little bit more polish to reach its high standards. This announcement has left gamers eagerly awaiting the release of this highly anticipated game.
In other news, Moon director Duncan Jones has signed on to direct a live-action movie version of World Of Warcraft. Jones gained fame for his 2009 sci-fi drama Moon starring Sam Rockwell, and it seems that he will be taking on another iconic franchise with World Of Warcraft. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Jones will start filming his trip to Azeroth in 2013, aiming for a 2015 debut.
It's also been announced that Joss Whedon will be working on Avengers 2, which is scheduled to arrive later this year. This news has left fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe eagerly anticipating what's to come next.
In a related story, Star Wars episode 7 has finally got its release date and it's going to be a good year for nerds. Google Glass, the futuristic headset that has been making waves in the tech world, is getting closer to reality. The Explorer edition of Glass, which was originally set to arrive early this year, will now only be available to die-hard voyers.
FCC filings have revealed one surprise about the headset - it's set to conduct audio to the wearer using vibration. This feature adds a new layer of complexity to the already innovative device. Despite some setbacks, Google Glass is still on track to become a reality in 2013.
And that's it for today's top stories. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm really hungry.
