The Humble Paradox Bundle has been unleashed, containing a number of games from the publisher behind some of PC's best strategy titles.

One of the big questions about Soul Calibur II HD Online was which of the guest characters would be making their return? In the original release of the game, the PS2, Gamecube and Xbox versions each had a different character. Link for Gamecube, Heihachi for PS2 and Spawn for Xbox.

Deep Silver have announced that Saints Row IV has done very well, selling a million copies in its first week. The fourth entry in the franchise has more than tripled the PC copies of Saints Row The Third sold in the same time frame.

This is the sort of headline I'd feel more comfortable writing if it was April 1st, but there you are. Nintendo have announced a brand new handheld: the 2DS. The 2DS is a 3DS without the 3D support and with a few physical changes (such as being in a single unit, as opposed to two hinged sides).

If you've been on the internet for any length of time, it's petrifying what people may be able to find out about you. This has been proven today by an internet sleuth who decided to turn his eye to Tropes Vs Women creator Anita Sarkeesian. Along with a variety of pictures and posts, he's also linked her to telemarketing programs and to what he calls "junk science [and] social manipulation."

GameSpy was once the centre of online gaming, boasting server support for over 400 games, but it has more recently dropped into disuse, with its name popping up less and less. That's partly ebcause developers see more value in services like Steamworks, which are integrated right into where people are buying and collecting their games anyway.

Rockstar have announced that a new trailer for Grand Theft Auto V will be released this Thursday. Aside from calling it the "official" trailer, little else is said about it This will be the eighth trailer to be released for Grand Theft Auto V, and will likely be one of the last before the game is launched. Expect this to be a mash-up of everything we've seen so far, a nice mix of single player gameplay, story and online features. It seems unlikely that it'll ...

The Wonderful 101 is what happens when you take Nintendo's charm and core-appeal and stuff it into a Saturday morning cartoon format. This is a world where heroes scream the name of their power before using it, in which every ability is mercilessly explained in detail, in which you're the hero and in which you'll die. A lot.

Gamestop have "found" another rare game cache. The Metroid Prime Trilogy will go on sale tomorrow at $84.99, although it doesn't seem to be the Metroid Prime Trilogy that was released a few years ago. With no steelbook case - something that all US versions of the game apparently shipped with - some are asking how Gamestop can be selling something preowned that never existed at retail to begin with.

It makes for a wonderful story, doesn't it? A poor innocent child, excited to play on his PlayStation 3 console, puts in his copy of Grand Theft Auto IV and suddenly becomes a crazed lunatic. He reaches for his grandparent's gun - which happens to be loaded and in an easily accessible place - and then he moves into the other room, shooting her through the head.
