For almost as long as Superman has been around, The Daily Planet building has been the workplace of the Man of Steel’s alter ego, Clark Kent. Almost all of Clark’s closest friends work there as well, including the love of his life, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and Perry White. Next summer, director James Gunn’s Superman will reintroduce all of these characters on the big screen. But The Daily Planet itself is ready for its close up right now.

This tier is focused on users who aren’t interested in owning an Xbox console.

And best of all, we finally got our first look at Shadow the Hedgehog in motion – who yes, is in fact voiced by the one and only Keanu Reeves.
