New Batman Title to be Announced Soon?
Last year's Arkham Origins was always going to be a filler game. As good as it was, it had the unpleasant task of being stuck between Arkham City and whatever Rocksteady are building for next-gen consoles. How could it compete with one of the best rated games of this generation and the sheer hardware of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One? Soon we'll get to see exactly what we're holding out for - it seems Rocksteady are gearing up for a big announcement.

That was never going to fly, so when it was revealed this week that the main campaign lasted only a few hours, people got very upset. How could they charge so much for so little?

Ninjabee is Bringing World of Keflings to Wii U
Ninjabee has a knack for making simple yet addicting games, and the Keflings franchise is no different.

It may sound confusing, but within twenty minutes of playing, you'll get it.

Some PS4 Owners Unhappy with 1.6 Update
The 1.6 update hit for the PS4 this morning, and it does surprisingly little - nothing, in fact, if you don't have a camera or a headset, or if you don't watch DVDs. Those who are still enjoying their console regardless of the update or people with cameras and headsets are chuffed to bits over Sony's latest release, but others are less impressed, wondering just where all the features are?

New PlayStation 4 Firmware Update Coming Tomorrow
The PlayStation 4 is one of the best consoles ever released, and that's no exaggeration. Even with that high praise though, there are still a few niggles that run fairly common through the community.
