2K Marin, the developers behind Bioshock 2 and, most recently, The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, have been struck with layoffs, according to sources speaking with Rock, Paper, Shotgun and Polygon.

Naughty Dog’s Eric Monacelli has said that there a PlayStation 4 version of The Last of Us is not in development, and, in fact, there are “no plans” to release a next-gen version of the critical hit. This will disappoint quite a few people who were looking to double dip, although there’s no doubt at some point The Last of Us will be playable on PS4 (either through a 1080p/60FPS re-release, or via Gaikai). That doesn’t mean it isn’t ever…

Disney and Final Fantasy characters fighting alongside each other, a story about hearts and key blades, real-time button mashing combat, and a main character with hair that defies gravity; Kingdom Hearts hit the industry with originality, bravery, and charm back in 2002.

Amazon have launched a pre-order page for Kingdom Hearts 2.5 HD ReMIX, announced earlier this morning. The collection, which contains Kingdom Hearts 2, Birth By Sleep and the cutscenes from ReCoded, will be out some time in 2014.

A fan has done what Square Enix didn't - taken the English lines from Kingdom Hearts 2, Birth By Sleep and Re:Coded and placed them into the trailer for Kingdom Hearts 2.5 ReMIX. It gives a much better glimpse of what we should be expecting when the second HD collection launches next year.

Today, Square Enix has announced that they will be releasing Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMix in 2014. Like the recently released Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMix, 2.5 will be exclusive to the Playstation 3, and feature high-definition remakes of classic games in the Square Enix/Disney franchise.

Sony have announced that they're bringing God of War: Ascension to the PlayStation Network this month. Although prices have yet to be announced, you can probably expect them to be roughly in-line with whatever your local brick and mortar stores are charging.
