Gearbox Software’s Chief Creative Officer Brian Martel spoke a little more about Aliens: Colonial Marines, expanding much on what he’s said earlier this week, about working with IP-owner Fox, the differences in developing for a game rather than film, and what the future holds while trying to take on deadly Xenomorphs.

Add this one to the list of news items that are incredibly disappointing but nowhere near surprising. Apparently, games retailer GameStop has decided that there is still a chance to sell even more used copies than they are currently moving, provided that they remove the ways that customers can distinguish old from new.

Russia’s month-old Chechnya operation has been a disaster for the army – and its commander in chief. Boris Yeltsin was in political trouble already, thanks to a sinking economy and the perception that he has given in to both the mafia and the hard-liners.

Milan succumbed to second-half goals from Andrea Belotti and Alex Berenguer at Olimpico Grande Torino, with Alessio Romagnoli also seeing red on Sunday. The result saw Milan drop to seventh with four games remaining – Torino moving above them into sixth – as the race for Champions League qualification looks set to go to the wire.

And Tour newcomer Gaviria is winning so far. Gaviria edged Sagan at the finish line to claim Stage 4 on Tuesday and take his second stage win in his first participation at cycling’s greatest race.
