Microsoft Explain why Achievements are better on Xbox One
We've all seen the new improvements made to the Xbox One achievement system, but what about if you want to play a cross-gen game on Xbox 360? What incentive do you have to pick up, say, Watch Dogs on Xbox One instead of Xbox 360?
Australian Saints Row IV co-op incompatible with international release
The Australian Classification Board may have eventually approved Saints Row IV for release in the country but at the cost of multiplayer co-op with gamers outside Australia. An apologetic post on the Official Saints Row Facebook page (which has since been deleted) mentions a couple things on how the Australian version differs from any other version of the game. A single mission has been cut to meet the strict AU Classification criteria, but that’s not all. Gamers down under will…
Steam Sell Fallout 3 without Keys, Buyers Can’t Play
There's been something of a mini-controversy on Steam this last weekend. Fallout 3 has been on sale and it seems to have sold so many copies that Steam actually ran out of keys so that people could actually play their game.

While Bioshock 2 received some rather mixed reaction from fans of the original, I've never heard a bad thing about Minerva's Den, with maybe one exception. It never made it to Steam. That seems about to change. Minerva's Den has appeared in the Steam Registry. It'll be available for download individually, playable with your copy of Bioshock 2, or it'll be bundled up with the full game for those that have never played either.
Arkham City Ditching its GFWL DRM?
Some major changes to the Batman: Arkham City Steam entry seems to imply that the second Rocksteady-developed Batman game will soon lose its DRM. If you own a copy of Arkham City on Steam, your purchase just might end up being a lot more "yours."
Company of Heroes 2 an “Insult to Russian History”
Americans "saving the world" during World War II isn't a new thing in entertainment. If you believed the Hollywood version of events, the bravest of the brave all came from the US and everybody else died rather embarrassingly or wouldn't have saved the day without the help of said US soldiers. Even games like Company of Heroes 2, which hints at something vaguely fact-based, isn't above painting certain people in a very good light.
