First today to the sad news from Orlando in the US

where an attack happened at the weekend.

President Obama has said he will visit the area

Cities around the world, including London, Brussels,

Glasgow and many more have been holding tributes to show they care.

The attack in the early hours of Sunday morning

was the worst mass shooting in recent US history.

Some people think rules around guns are to blame.

Today marks the most deadly shooting in American history.

This massacre is a further reminder of how easy it is for someone

to get their hands on a weapon that lets them shoot people in a school,

a place of worship, or a movie theatre or in a nightclub.

And we need to decide if that's the country we want to be.

That's the American President, Barack Obama,

speaking after an attack in Orlando in the early hours of Sunday morning

that killed 50 people and injured many more.

It's not the first time he's spoken about the need for gun control.

He's repeatedly made speeches like this

every time there's been a large shooting in the US.

That's because masss shootings are a big problem in America.

For every 100 people in the United States,

there are around 90 guns - compared to only 6 for every 100

In America, it's relatively easy to get a gun if you're over 18.

The rules are much tougher in the UK.

The right to what's known as "keep and bear arms" was written

into American law within years of the country being

Back then, America didn't have a well-established army

and people felt it was important to have the right to carry a weapon

to keep order or in case the country was attacked.

the United States is a very different place

but many people there still see the right to own a gun

as an important part of being American -

and as a way of protecting themselves.

They argue that it's not the law that's at fault,

but a small number of people who use guns in the wrong way.

But others disagree and want the law to change,

saying that if fewer people had access to guns,

President Obama wants it to be much harder to buy a gun

and wants tougher background checks

and police to assess if a person is suitable to own the weapon.

But with such fierce opinions on both sides,

it will be difficult to make any changes.

Remember, if anything you see in the news upsets you,

Tech news now, and thousands of video game fans

are heading to Los Angeles in the US for E3 -

a huge gaming show that takes place every year.

It's the place where companies like Microsoft and Sony

and there are always lots of surprises in store too.

Hello, Newsround, and welcome to Los Angeles and E3.

This show is usually all about video games

but this year something unusual happened -

That is strange because they only usually come around

And the Xbox One has only been out for three.

Now, the first new Xbox that comes out this year

It is a little bit smaller than the Xbox One

and there is also a new one coming out next year, which

Microsoft says will be more powerful and can run virtual reality games.

Now, the PlayStation is already well ahead on that front.

Sony says the PS4 is already powerful enough

to run virtual reality games

and it has a headset coming out in October.

It has already been showing off loads of games

And if you're not ready to buy a new console

because you have only just bought one, don't worry.

Microsoft just said all the new games that come out

for the new Xboxes also run on the old ones.

Finally, a tale of an unlikely friendship out at sea -

who's going around the world with his companion...

The French sailor wanted to take a pet on his journey for company,

and he says Monique adapted to life at sea very well,

even enjoying the occassional surf!

And while Guirec's doing most of the hard work,

she lays plenty of eggs for his breakfast!
