Siliconera has dug up a Korea’s Game Rating Board rating for Magic: The Gathering – Duels Of The Planeswalkers 2013, which was filed by Microsoft Korea. Wizards of the Coast hasn’t officially announced a sequel to Duels Of The Planeswalkers 2012, but still, the information is there for your consideration anyway. The site points out that while the listing may have been filed under Microsoft, it doesn’t mean it will be an Xbox 360 exclusive. Last year’s version was also released on PS3 and Steam alongside the 360 version.

A YouTube user named NinjaDancer has uploaded a couple videos for the Mass Effect 3 demo, which he got early access to. The demo is posted in two parts, and contains the first two missions in the game. The user apologizes for his aiming at one point, but no matter, as you get the general idea of what the demo will consist of when it drops next Tuesday on PSN and Xbox 360. Thanks, AGB. [image]

Max Payne 3 releases on PS3 and Xbox 360 May 15 and on PC May 29 in the US and June 1 in Europe.
