Fans of Gundam have a new smartphone to look forward to. According to a tweet by @UniverseIce, gadget maker OPPO has partnered with Bandai Namco, to launch “a new smartphone.” This Twitter user has had reliable mobile leaks in the past, so there is a good chance this is legit. Right now we don’t know anything about this yet-to-be-announced phone aside from that it is coming soon, along with a couple of rendered images of the smartphone.

Something fans of Deadpool won’t appreciate is afoot. Apparently, an upcoming arc in the Deadpool and Spider-Man comic series will see a mysterious villain come in and stop our pal DP from being able to see and talk directly to the readers.

Back in the day, all the game consoles used cartridges. We had to blow on those things regularly, or dust got in the connectors and things didn’t work correctly. Dutch tech site Techtastic is reporting on a supposed Sony patent application that hints the next console could ditch the discs used for games today and return to the cartridge format.

OMG, I so hope this happens! Apparently, Disney is thinking about making a Star Wars inspired resort that would be set on a starship. How awesome would it be to sleep inside a giant starship? The resort would let fans not only sleep and live in a starship for a few days, word is you would get to participate in your own 2-day story set in the Star Wars universe. According to WDWNT, third party (presumably working with Disney) is surveying guests on their interest in staying in such a resort, and the images here are the concept art for the hotel.

The week is off to a hot start for Grand Theft Auto V fans. GTA Forums member nevatblade claims that he saw a seemingly erroneously posted article on Rockstar’s support page stating that the upcoming GTA V for PS4, Xbox One and PC will have a first person view in vehicles and on foot.

If you ask me, some things just go together, like peanut butter and jelly, burgers and fries, and Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon.
