There is something wonderful about getting old games remastered for new systems, but also something inherently problematic. Often these titles, from the present looking to the past, are viewed as iconic, industry changing experiences. With a re-release, the question almost always becomes, "Will it live up to the original?" Gears of War: Ultimate Edition walks the fine line between being an outstanding shooter, but with many faults. Updated graphics and an overhauled multiplayer system cannot make up for the flaws of most early Xbox 360 titles.

New screenshots have surfaced for LEGO Dimensions, showing of many of the environments that players will get to play through. At launch, Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment has stated that there will be 14 levels to play through with the starter package.

Microsoft has announced the latest and greatest of free Games with Gold for Xbox 360 and Xbox One, along with this week being your final chance to download August's Games with Gold selection.

Earlier this year, Performance Design Products announced a new wired controller for Xbox One. These controllers - officially licensed by Microsoft - probably fall somewhere in between Microsoft's normal Xbox One controller and Microsoft's upcoming Elite Xbox One controller.

I was treated to a 15 minute demo of one of the playable tombs in the upcoming Rise of the Tomb Raider for Xbox One. Members of the development were on-hand at X15 in Toronto to show off the game and answer any questions we may have had.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt really shocked the video game world when it announced 16 free DLC packs, ranging from cosmetic upgrades to extra missions, weapons, and items. But it was all free. Free if you purchased the game digitally. Free if you purchased the standard edition, and free if you purchased the deluxe edition. It was free even if you didn't preorder the game, and it was free if you bought the game used.

The latest NHL title from EA Sports is outstanding. After playing through a few games with various media members at X15 in Toronto, I realized I really was playing an improved NHL game. To be fair, for NHL 16 to be better than the first NHL release on current generation consoles is not very difficult. NHL 15 played great, but lacked features previous titles had. NHL 16 fixes all of that.

If you read our Batman Arkham Knight review, you know that we absolutely loved it. The combat, vehicle game play, and story all worked really well together to create a Batman game like no other in the series. The experience is now getting an extension with a ton of new DLC coming to console soon.

Microsoft has launched official trailer for Gears of War Ultimate Edition, which features the "Mad World" trailer from the original Gears of War title. The Mad World trailer has been reimagined, and includes new in-game footage taken from the new look Gears of War.

If you haven't played the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, check out our review and go grab a copy. It is an excellent game, and the post launch support has been even better. The last of CD Projekt Red's free DLC packs are landing now, and one includes the ability to start the game over with all your levels and items carrying over with you.
