Space Marine 2 moddersports bettings have once again answered players’ prayers by putting the axe from Secret Level’s Warhammer 40,000 episode into the game.The Secret Level Warhammer 40,000 episode, called And They Shall Know No Fear, is a sequel to Space Marine 2 and stars protagonist Titus as he battles alongside his brothers to defeat the forces of Tzeentch.

A Star Wars artist revealed a last-minute change George Lucas made to The Phantom Menace that would have pretty significant implications for the Obi-Wan Kenobi we know today.Concept and storyboard artist Iain McCaig gave a wide-ranging interview to StarWars.com in honor of The Phantom Menace's 25th anniversary and in it, he revealed that Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan originally had their names swapped — but there's a reason for it. He explains:“For a time, the older Jedi was named Obi-Wan and the younger Jedi was named Qui-Gon.
