There are so many things about this story that could be wrong or misinterpreted (or just plain made up) but it makes for quite the interesting idea anyway. A user on Neogaf claims that, after attempting to get a new, sealed copy of Battlefield 4 from EA so that he could get a refund at Gamestop, they got into a fight with an EA rep over whether or not the game's current state constitutes that it is broken.

LEGO The Hobbit, revealed over the last few weeks for a series of systems longer than the Hobbit movies themselves, was previously only shown off through a screenshot. Now Warner Bros have released a trailer that shows off The Hobbit, the humour and the journey that you'll be undertaking next year if you pick it up in 2014.

Capcom have announced that Marvel Vs Capcom 2 and 3 will be leaving digital stores over the next week or so, depending on your location. The superhero brawler will be leaving both the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live, as well as all the DLC available. You should still be able to download it if you've already paid for it.

It's been quite a long time coming, but Minecraft is finally coming to PlayStation 3 over the next few days. It had previously been available on just about everything else, including mobile phones and Xbox 360. Those of you investing in a PS3 this Christmas, especially if it's for a young child, have picked just the right time to buy.

The biggest mistake people made concerning the Call of Duty franchise this year was in presuming that it would be "next-gen." Call of Duty is one of the biggest entertainment IPs in the world, they're not going to do anything that the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 can't handle. That's not to say that the PlayStation 4 version of Call of Duty: Ghosts isn't worth playing, or even upgrading to. You just have to expect a cross-gen Call of Duty sequel.

Final Fantasy VIII was completely mind-blowing to those of us who had been obsessed with Final Fantasy VII. The locations were dark, the characters followed you around and they even managed to have hands. It helped that it was a decent title in its own right, and now it's been re-released on Steam, with a few modern features squeezed in. Is it worth another investment, or should you stick to your Vita download?

Broken Sword is one of those point and click titles that just keeps on trying. Like Leisure Suit Larry and Monkey Island, there's something about the nostalgia behind those original titles that have kept people asking for more. Broken Sword 5: The Serpent's Curse is the latest in the franchise, and on the whole it's rather successful, just so long as you know exactly what it is you're going in to.

In a case of stuck between a rock and a hard place, Bethesda's latest trailer for The Elder Scrolls Online, released to YouTube today, has been attacked by both fans of MMOs and fans of The Elder Scrolls.

Bethesda has today announced the release date for The Elder Scrolls Online. The fantasy MMO was supposed to be released earlier this year, but was delayed around the same time that next-gen versions of each were announced at E3.

Microsoft have today announced that their Xbox One console has sold two million units in the fortnight since it came out. That's an amazing achievement and one that puts it almost neck and neck with the PlayStation 4. Fanboys might not have ammo for their pointless online arguments, but one thing is certain: it's a good time to be a gamer.
