    Xbox One: Everything You Need to Know About Microsoft's New Console, It's been eight years and nine days since Microsoft showed the world the Xbox 360 on May 12th, 2005. Today, we see what's next. The Xbox One. New consoles are exciting in a way that it's hard for other product releases to match, even anticipated ones like an iPhone, because they're so infrequent. This is at least a five-year bet on Microsoft's part about what the future of gaming will look like. We've already seen what Sony and Nintendo think. Now it's Microsoft's turn. Microsoft ...

    The 3DS is no graphical slouch. Aside from the glasses-free 3D feature, the console can kick out some impressive scenery, and it did so with last year's Resident Evil Revelations, a well-made little horror shooter in a series that's been looking for a lifeboat lately. After launching Resident Evil 6 fewer than six months ago, Capcom seems to think HD platforms need even more Resident Evil love, and so this week Revelations hits Xbox 360, PS3, Windows PCs, and the Wii U. Playing it uprezzed on an HD console, however, feels just a little goofy. The textures ...

    I promised Jonty I'd never type this word, but he's away from the office at the moment, travelling to the next generation Xbox event, so - BOOM. FIFA 14 will appear at the event, pointing to a significant exclusivity partnership of some kind 'twixt EA and Microsoft. The following image comes care of the EA Sports FIFA Twitter account. Nice work, chaps - I've just upgraded from "stoked" to "hyped". Here are eight things you need to know about FIFA 14's gameplay. It's out in October - hopefully, the next generation Xbox will be on shelves by then too ...

    In news that probably won't surprise many, Microsoft's next generation Xbox appears to be on track for a late 2013 release. That's in light of a new Digitimes report (via GI), which suggests that mass shipments of components will begin in Q3 and peak in Q4. "The sources expect the new Xbox orders to strongly boost their performances in the second half as the orders' profits will grow along with the volume," adds the report. There are a few additional snippets of technical insight. "Currently, Lite-On Technology and Delta Electronics ...

    The Battlefield 4 team are throwing out less than subtle hints that they may have some kind of involvement with the Xbox Reveal later today. That'll mean sharing a stage with Call of Duty: Ghosts, if it happens. Let's hope the two games don't fight. The official Battlefield Twitter account and Facebook page both state that "big announcements" are coming soon. As EA are already confirmed to be revealing FIFA 14 and their debut UFC game at the event, it's a relatively safe bet that the new Battlefield will also feature in some capacity ...

    Microsoft has filed a new trademark for the word "Forzavista." Using our detective-like intuition, we've determined it probably has something to do with the Forza Motorsport series, possibly something that will be revealed during tomorrow's "Xbox Reveal" event. Further speculation points to a renaming or expansion of the series' "Autovista" feature, which allows players to get up close and personal with many of the game's cars (including Halo 4's Warthog). Okay, so it's not so much speculation as it is exactly what's described by the ...

How exciting.Sony's E3 conference takes place in Los Angeles on June 10 at 6 p.m. PT. Perhaps we'll get a clearer idea of what the PS4 looks like at that time, along with a price and release date. Right now we have "Holiday 2013," a timeframe that Sony settled on when it announced the PS4 in February. Microsoft is prepping to reveal its own next-gen console – the new Xbox – tomorrow, May 21, at 10 a.m. PT. ...

"The company previously announced that all three games would be playable at E3.

    Ever hear of Shadow Warrior before? Apparently it was a Game of Note back in 1997. I can't "speak to that", as the corporate lingo goes, but I can tell you that the reboot in the works at Hard Reset is decidedly pretty. Nice score, too. The game's planned for release on next generation consoles and PC. It appears to be an action affair in which you battle demons, some of which call to mind Ninja Theory's Devil May Cry reboot and Silent Hill. Proceed to the first trailer without further ado ...

    Ubisoft has released a new trailer for Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Blacklist, showcasing gameplay from its co-op narrative campaign and some gruff banter between Sam Fisher and his partner-in-stealth Isaac Briggs. Splinter Cell is beefing up its multiplayer offerings for the latest series entry, as Blacklist will feature both a two-player co-op campaign and the returning Spies vs. Mercs multiplayer mode. We had a chat with Blacklist's lead co-op designer Richard Carrillo earlier this month, in which he confirmed that teammates will need to adapt to multiple ...

    It's another familiar week of UK cha-... oh wait, it isn't.After Dead Island: Riptide sliced through its competition for three weeks, this time it's dethroned by another follow-up in the form of Metro: Last Light. By debuting in top spot, it does what Metro 2033 failed to do when it placed fifth in 2010. Chart-Track says Metro 2033 sold stronger than Last Light in its launch week. Back then, Metro 2033 was fighting March megatons like Final Fantasy 13, God of War 3, and Battlefield Bad Company 2. In contrast, May 2013 has been dead quiet - emphasis on dead ...

    Microsoft's next Xbox reveal will be more about hardware, according to Interactive Entertainment Business boss Aaron Greenberg, while its E3 show will be more about games. Not just any games, though, my darlings. We're talking "tonnes of exclusives". "We're really going to tell one story across two events," Greenberg explained on the latest episode of Major Nelson's podcast (via Videogamer). "So we're going to start on the 21st, and really that's about revealing the next Xbox platform; our vision for the future of games, the future of entertainment. ...

    Infinity Ward has released some early footage of Call of Duty: Ghosts on Vine. Turns out there are men with guns in it. Other confirmed features: helping people up, jungles, suppressed sniper rifles, exploding churches and, um, faces. We are officially through the looking glass, my friends, operating in unfamiliar waters. Ghosts is said to be a clean break for the franchise, running on a new engine and starring an all-new cast. It'll release for both current and next generation consoles on 5th November. "Everyone was expecting us to make Modern Warfare 4 ...

    Bat fans, rejoice! After some uncertainty, veteran voice actor Kevin Conroy has been confirmed to return to his long-standing role of Bruce Wayne in the upcoming Batman: Arkham Origins. It had been widely rumoured that a new voice actor would be brought in by WB Montreal to portray a younger, more rough-around-the-edges Bats in the prequel, but Conroy himself confirmed his involvement at a Q&A at the Dallas Comic Con over the weekend. "I can talk about it now," he declared during the panel. "We've been working for about nine or ten ...

    We like what we've seen of GTA 5's single player, but the multiplayer is still a bit of a mystery. Thankfully, the mists are clearing. In a brief aside during a post about Max Payne 3 (spotted by the fine folk of Gameranx), Rockstar has promised to release concrete details shortly. "We haven't detailed the features of Grand Theft Auto V's online mode as yet (stay tuned for first info soon)," it reads, "but there's already a whole slew of Crews rallying, preparing and raring to go - with some creating some pretty impressive emblems along the way inspired ...

    The upcoming console/PC iteration of Resident Evil: Revelations will include a trio of confusing new costumes for Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield and Keith Lumley, Capcom has announced. As can be seen in the gallery, Jill and Chris both sport equally leggy nautical-themed outfits, while Keith channels his inner One Piece character as a shirtless sword-guy in hammer pants. Costumes are unlocked by playing through the game's Campaign and Raid modes, in addition to "other unlocking mechanisms" that Capcom is keeping a secret. We're just hoping ...
