Blizzard has only released one real expansion for Hearthstone since the game’s release, which was the Goblins vs Gnomes expansion. While adventure updates do include new cards, there is only a small amount added to the game and so they do expand what is available card-wise in Hearthstone, it isn’t like a full expansion such as Goblins vs Gnomes which added 150+ cards. It appears that Blizzard may be teasing yet another expansion for Hearthstone, this time themed with pirates and ninjas.
Nvidia Shield 2 rumors have been reported on DroidGamers among many other sites. The newest rumor is that Nvidia is working on something that will connect to TVs via an HDMI cable. While the Nvidia Shield is capable of this, the new device would require an additional controller, which is in line with the recent Shield Tablet rumors. However the controller is said to be a budget controller, though personally I hope they don’t sacrifice too much in the way of usability and comfort for the sake of giving the lowest price possible.
Game of Thrones fans may have something pretty cool to look forward to if the current rumor going around is actually true.

If you follow the news about upcoming or rumored Android devices then you are probably already aware that Nvidia is rumored to be making their own Android tablets.

A couple of days ago news broke that Amazon was possibly getting into the Android-powered console with a unit of their own that is apparently in development right now and could see its release by the end of this year.

There have been rumors of multiple Nexus branded devices heading our way over the next few months from when the Nexus 7 was launched.

Not that this rumor is really that surprising and actually in fact that a Nexus 10 tablet wasn’t unveiled at Google I/O is more surprising than this rumor is. However, if you want a Nexus 7 tablet but prefer the large 10″ tablet variety, you may actually be in luck.
So a new rumor is rolling around out there that Google is currently developing a Game Center style application and service for Android. While this is a ‘new’ rumor, back in June of 2011 we actually predicted that this would happen eventually anyways.
