A user on Neogaf yesterday "announced" a series of Microsoft secrets, including Halo 2 Anniversary, Crackdown 3, a Titanfall console and a cheaper Xbox One without an optical disc drive. Naturally Microsoft was unhappy with this, and Kotaku claim an anonymous source tells them they'll be trying to discover the identity of the leaker, and punish him as much as the law allows.

There have been hits in the past that Microsoft might be looking to revisit Halo 2. November 2014 will be the tenth anniversary of the best-selling sequel, so some fans might be hoping that something happens, and that it lives up to their memory of that original Xbox game. A developer visiting Neogaf might just have outed the whole project, even down to the release date.

Titanfall is still a few months away from launch, but that doesn't mean that development has finished on it. There's a beta incoming, and that'll probably result in a bit of tweaking, and what's the chance of a major shooter coming out without a day-one patch to follow? That's not all the Titanfall staff are working on though. EA, via an earnings call to investors, have revealed that DLC is already being worked on by Respawn.

Cliffy B was the face of Gears of War for a long time, and though he hasn't been involved with it for a few years, he was still first in line for comment when it was sold.

The first megaton announcement of the year has blown the collective socks off of gamers everywhere. Microsoft have today announced that they've acquired the Gears of War IP off Epic. Epic will no longer be involved with the adventures of the COG and there's no chance the franchise will make it to a Sony console.

Tomb Raider was a great game, but it had very little in common with the massively open-world RPG The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It's not a problem most of us picked up on, but apparently it's something the developers hope to rectify for Tomb Raider 2.

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition might seem slightly underwhelming, especially for those that completed it multiple times on PC. It wasn't always going to be that way though. Crystal Dynamics had originally considered adding extra plot to the new-gen edition, but was shot down by a Square Enix exec.

A few weeks ago we ran a story saying that the new-gen version of Tomb Raider would run at only 30FPS. That has turned out to be only half true. On the Xbox One, 30FPS is about the limit. On PlayStation 4, you can expect anything up to 60FPS.

It's no surprise that users with early access to an upcoming game won't be allowed to share screens, video, opinions or even details about said game ahead of its release, but, yup, Titanfall will be the same. Only made noteworthy by the fact the developers took to Twitter to confirm it, it seems some fans are desperate to share their results.

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition might contain improved graphics, a new Lara and all the DLC, but there's one area in which it certainly isn't "definitive." Scot Amos of Crystal Dynamics has today confirmed that the new-gen version of last year's Tomb Raider reboot will be limited to 30 frames per second.
