My friend made a Halo single-player level Tiermaker, and they had no entries in the F-tier. When I asked them about it, they said they were saving it for when they got to Halo 5.

EA added an Issac Clarke skin from the series Dead Space to their free-to-play Skate game.
That skin cost more money than the Dead Space 1 remake, AND Dead Space 2, AND Dead Space 3 combined during last week's Steam sale.
