Review of the Week

Sure is hot today here in the UK. But let's cool down with a look at the news this week:

Star Wars News - Two worlds colliding
Well its not an entire crossover as such, but actors who have been seen in Harry Potter have been reportedly cast for roles in upcoming Star Wars media. Jason Issacs who played Lucius Malfoy has been cast as a voice for a villain in the new Disney XD series Star Wars Rebels. While it may not be big news as such, it seems that Disney and Lucasfilm have their eyes on British actors to play parts in future Star Wars media which is great in some way as we've got a whole range of talent here who the majority of which, were seen in the Harry Potter films so it may not be a crossover, but at least there will be some Harry Potter names in the universe.

In other news, BBC are embarrassed about leaks of Series 8, Ubisoft give us an unusual job ad for a skilled parkour guy to help improve AC games, Sony targets Wii owners presumably in the hopes to improve sales of the PS4 and Universal wants in on the shared universe action and do so with their classic monsters.

Now for the week's film and video game releases:

Films:
Planes: Fire & Rescue (Most areas with more to follow)
Sex Tape (Some areas with more to follow)

Video Games:
Freedom Planet (Windows, MAC and Linux) (Worldwide)
