The last week's obscure and the overlooked stories form Newsbytes: this week Just Dance 4, Sim City 4 and Fallout 4 all feature. And it took four times less effort than usual!

We have a very PC-heavy dose of Memorable Music in Gaming this time around. However, there is one standout console title that racing fans are also sure to immediately recognize.
FTL: Fast Than Light (PC) - Last Stand
I love this particular track so much that when I attended a relative's wedding not too long ago, I played this on repeat on my earphones all night.

What I don't want to see at E3:
Sales reports
Call of Duty
Madden
Fillers
Destiny
VR (Unless they have amazing looking games)
Scorpio/Neo
New Apps on consoles
TV crap
Digital Comics
Fake acting in multiplayer games ex. Division
CGI teasers (Seriously seeing a teaser is basically saying, NOT coming out this year) Does anyone remember Agent? I can handle CGI trailers that shows how the game would be, but if you're just going to show me the title of your game without any information then take that teaser and shove it.
Live cringy performances
I can almost guarantee you that Call of Duty, Madden, Destiny, VR, and CGI teasers will be there.
Along the way, Carrie Swidecki also raised over $7,000 for charity.
That's really awesome - a good example of how gaming can have a real, positive impact. Way to go.
Bullshit. I hate these stupid world record/ charity claims people make these days. She clearly didn't "dance" without stopping at all for almost 6 days. The human body could not take it!
Has anyone ever tried to see what happends to you when you force it not to sleep? As someone who suffered from insomnia for a period of my life. Your body cannot cope & has periods of rapid shutdowns were it will randomly switch off for a few seconds completely numbing it. No matter what you're currently doing. After 72 hours you may aswell just drop a few acid tabs because you'll be seeing & talking to things that arnt there & generally going a bit mental. After that point it gets dangerous & if you've had no rest your heart will go in to overtime & you'll have cardiac arrest. Claiming to be dancing at this point is ridiculous.
Beat me to it. Was going to say they would have needed to hook this person up to a powered exoskeleton for the last couple days and zombie dance them. With constant physical exertion, they actually most likely wouldn't have lasted 2 days.
I don't know what records she broke. However, if it's Guiness Book's records, they have strict guidelines as to how one could do this. That includes mandatory breaks for food, drink, and bathroom. I remember a streamer a couple of years ago trying to go for a 3 day record. He fell asleep on the toilet after about 50 hours. (of course I didn't watch the entire time, just checked in a couple of times) Either way, he talked about how he HAD to follow the guidelines in order to be considered for the record.
