There were huge announcements this week, with Valve confirming the Steam Box and rumors about the XBOX 720’s specs starting to spread. It’s only a matter of time before solid news about Microsoft’s next console appears. Personally, I’ve spent the week getting familiar with the very addicting Feed the Beast modpack for Minecraft. Specifically, the bee breeding and automation that comes with the Forestry mod. I’m looking forward to hearing more news about the new Pokémon games, and as always, you can check back at Explosion.com for more news on the series as it leaks!
