The nominees for the SXSW 2017 Gaming Awards are in and, unsurprisingly, it’s Overwatch and Naughty Dog’s action-adventure sequel Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End that lead the pack. The latter scooped up eight nominations in total, including Excellence in Design and Most Memorable Character (Nathan Drake), not to mention that coveted Game of the Year accolade.
Per SXSW’s official site, that title is reserved for “the game that exemplifies overall excellence and creates a distinct gaming experience across all platforms and genres.” Uncharted 4 will be going up against Dishonored 2, Doom, Overwatch and Respawn’s Titanfall 2 for top honors in two months’ time. Other noteworthy nominations include Inside, which got the nod for Excellence in Design. Indeed Playdead’s enthralling adventure game was named Game of the Year during Wgtc’s own end-of-year coverage, and though Inside missed out on the Goty category this time around, we’re...

It looks like "The Wolverine" is making up for lost time, and we are completely fine with that! Today alone we've covered new images from the film showing off Wolverine and most of his supporting cast, the new posters showing an appropriately enraged Hugh Jackman, and the just-released teaser for tomorrow's trailer. This has been a big day for Wolverine, and things don't seem to be slowing down.
But of all the updates, the Vine video featuring six looping seconds of footage is claws-down the most exciting news of the day. They managed to cram a lot into those six seconds, and we've found the best moments that you if you blinked, you may have missed.
» Famke Janssen pops up for a millisecond in the Vine, no doubt reprising her role as Jean Grey. This could be footage from "X-Men: The Last Stand," specifically from her and Wolverine's final moments.
