There's some Jon Favreau in your Han Solo soup

At least your GTA Online San Andreas taxes are easy 

Log into GTA Online between today and February 26 and get at $250,000 in GTA cash. It's a good time to spend it too, with a 10% rebate on every dollar spent. "Tax season is upon us and with 2017's population growth, the San Andreas Treasury Department is happy to report a new stimulus for all citizens - hustlers, triggers, shot callers and kingpins alike."

Hidetaka "Swery" Suehiro wants you to go missing

The eccentric developer of Deadly Premonition and D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die has started his weekend with a tease for his next game, The Missing. Never one to disappoint, he does the whole pitch holding a cuddly monkey. Because of course he does.
