Rebellion have today announced that they'll be making a brand new entry in the Evil Genius franchise. I say franchise, although I'm not sure that''s really an accurate description for one very, very strong strategy/world domination sim that is vastly underrated and constantly cheap.

Members of the DotA 2 subreddit were treated to a tour of Valve recently, and something tells me that the House that Half-Life Built may just regret letting them take picture. One picture, which shows a Valve Changelog, reveals quite clearly that the company are working on Left 4 Dead 3, and that it will run in the Source 2 engine.

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…

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. As of writing it still seems people are getting error messages and are unable to access their new purchase. Of course, Fallout 3 is still available to buy.

The summer drought has come and gone if this week's releases are any indication. The upcoming 7 days are rife with new releases particularly for PlayStation.

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.

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."

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.

A new trailer for Ubisoft's Watch_Dogs was released today, mere 24 hours since the last trailer got slammed by the internet for its poor quality.

The recently released short trailer of the highly anticipated Watch Dogs was met with much critisism from gamers.
