HBO CONFIRMS GAME OF THRONES WILL END WITH SEASON 8

By

No concrete plans for a spinoff at the point.

BY 
Back in January, then-HBO president Michael Lombardo told critics at the TCA (Television Critics Association) press tour that HBO was negotiating a renewal for Game of Thrones for both Season 7 and Season 8 - with EPs Benioff and Weiss agreeing that the show might come to an end with 8.
Now, soon after announcing that Season 7 will only be seven episodes long, HBO's new president of programming, Casey Bloys, at the TCA summer press tour today, revealed that Season 8 will in fact be the show's final run.
Asked if he could confirm Season 8 would be the last, as Benioff and Weiss have often said they intended, Bloys replied, “Yes. They have a very specific plan about the number of seasons they want to do. As the new guy coming in, I’d take 10 more seasons, but we take their lead.”
While Season 7 is confirmed as seven episodes, in terms of how many episodes for the final season, Bloys said, “For the 8th season, I’m not sure yet. The guys are still thinking about it. They know we’ll take as many as they want to give us.”
As far as a possible spinoff or other continuation, Bloys said, “We’ve talked about it. It’s something I’m not opposed to," but "There are no concrete plans at this point."

Everything we know about Gears of war 4 !!!! Release Date : 11 OCT 2016 Gears of war 4 is one of the biggest exclusive of  xbox one in 2016! Gears of War 4 is potentially one of the biggest exclusive titles of 2016 for Xbox One and Windows 10, marking the return of the iconic franchise in gruesomely fantastic style. Developed by Microsoft's first-party studio The Coalition, Gears of War 4 marks the beginning of a second trilogy with new enemies, threats and environments to be discovered. Old favourites such as Marcus Fenix make a return, as do the dastardly Locust threat from previous games. Of course, it wouldn't be a sequel without some new enemies to deal with, and some gnarly new weapons to obliterate them. It will also be available as part of Microsoft's new Xbox Play Anywhere service. This allows you play games on both Xbox One and Window 10 so long as you own one copy on either platform. Microsoft has confirmed that Gears of War 4 will launc...

Finally PS4 4K is officially announced by sony!!! Realese Date : 10 Nov 2016 More than three and a half years ago, I stood on stage in New York to unveil PlayStation 4, which captured our vision for the future of gaming. That vision placed the gamer at the center of the PlayStation ecosystem and empowered developers to create transformative experiences. This afternoon I returned to New York for another PlayStation Meeting to discuss the evolution of the PlayStation 4 platform and introduce PS4 Pro.
