Frankie Dettori is a champion horse racing jockey and former Celebrity Big Brother contestant known by some, as Lester Piggott put it, as the "best jockey currently riding."

Can you be a big winner in Frankie Dettori's Magic Seven, just like the man himself?

It was only a month ago that Randy Pitchford said his studio wasn't working on a new Borderlands title and that hiding work on new titles was pointless, and here we are.

How many big publsihers have placed a subscription on their big AAA MMO, all the while spouting PR speak about it definitely being worth it?

A short teaser video from the official Call of Duty Instagram page shows a distinctly Predator-esque level, with a distinctly invisible threat hunting the player.

The description even has the quote "If it bleeds..." in it.

Eurogamer have leaked information on the next Far Cry game, confirming that it'll be very similar to Far Cry 3 but set in a snowier region.

The other day we posted screens from a brand new Assassin's Creed set during the French Revolution. Called Assassin's Creed Unity, the game is exclusive to new-gen consoles, and the video below apparently shows in-game visuals.

Ground Zeroes has been a controversial but exciting project, and despite some issues people are still excited to see what's in store for Big Boss and team. If you own a Sony or Microsoft console, you'll be able to check it out. If you don't, you won't. It's as simple as that. It won't be coming to Wii U and it won't be coming to PC. Part of that statement might soon end up being incorrect though.

CD PROJECT have today announced that they'll be delaying The Witcher 3 into 2015. Although there was never a firm release date for the project, it was expected to be in stores in time for Christmas.
