Fresh out of TGS, Square Enix have released an English version of their new Final Fantasy X/X-2 trailer. It shows off a little from X and a little from X-2 and shows off some of the battle sequences we can expect to go through when the Remastered pack launches this Winter - perhaps a confirmation that it won't be available until next year.

Hideo Kojima and Konami have revealed some new Ground Zeroes gameplay at TGS this morning. It shows off what an actual sneaking mission may be like, without any fast forwards or pre-played gameplay. This is as close as we'll get to actually playing the game for what may be some time, so this is definitely one to cherish.

Sonic the Hedgehog is getting a little long in the tooth now. Although Generations showed him at his best, and there are definitely a lot of people excited for Lost Worlds, there's also some interest in where the series might go next. Might we see some of the large (and ever increasing) roster of minor characters take the centre spot-light, not unlike Luigi in this year's Super Luigi U?

A video has been released of what can only be described as an “incident” at a Gamestop Grand Theft Auto midnight launch. In it, a customer tries to claim his copy of Grand Theft Auto with a business card instead of a picture ID, acts rather badly and holds up the line while boosting up the drama. It’s the reaction of the manager, however, that makes the video noteworthy and, love her or hate her, you’re bound to have a…

Grand Theft Auto V is a definite success - as if anybody expected otherwise - with the best part of a billion dollar's worth of games sold in only a single day. The exact number is closer to $800 million, and it's the biggest launch for both publisher Take-Two and within the Grand Theft Auto series itself.

Thanks to clearance sales across various retailers, it would seem that Nintendo are stopping support for the white Pro Controller for Wii U. At only $24.99 from Best Buy, if you don't already have one, now is the time to pick one up.

The idea of having dinosaurs in Battlefield 3 was both slightly confusing and endlessly entertaining. In a serious tactical shooter, just why would you want prehistoric creatures running around? Of course, DICE picked up on the chatter and started adding references to the game itself, via DLC.

Although it's early days yet and this is subject to change over the coming days, weeks and months, Grand Theft Auto V is currently the highest rated game this generation on Xbox 360, matched only by Grand Theft Auto IV. On PS3, it is the second best game, beat by its predecessor.

Following Singstar's transition to free-to-play last year, the hit Karaoke game will receive a massive reboot this year. This will include a brand new design and newly thought out free-to-play integration. Exactly what either of those things entail has yet to be announced, although we're likely to find out more over the coming weeks.

It’s only a few days until Grand Theft Auto V is released on the world, and people are hungry to get their mitts on it. Perhaps the biggest financial indicator of that is the fact that CEX have copies that you can buy and play right now, but you’ll need to pay £70 for the honour. A little over 24 hours before the midnight launch of Grand Theft Auto V and that time is apparently worth £30 over the RRP…
