PS3-slim-console
E3 2012 looks as though it might not be the hardware fest that we’d hoped for. While early rumours hinted at a launch for both the PS4 and Xbox 720, the gossip’s quietened down enough to make both seem unlikely.

sony-adverts
Sony’s got a track record for doing adverts rather well. Its Bravia ads in particular are pretty awe-inspiring. You know the ones with the bouncing balls and the exploding paint? Yeah. That. Thing is, that doesn’t mean that the company gets it right all the time. In fact, we’d say the power’s gone to Sony’s head, as it's just filed a patent application to bring game-freezing adverts to its consoles. And maybe the Sony PS4... Read more

street-fighter
Capcom’s currently suffering at the hands of poor sales of Street Figher X Tekken. The reason? Apparently that it was launched around the same time as several other fighting titles. The solution?

Want to know what to actually expect to fall out of the gargantuan LA convention centre? Read on for our pick of the best in upcoming gaming tech... Read more

With such a massive franchise under its belt, you can expect the world’s eyes to be upon your next big gaming series.

WiiU_new_a
When Nintendo announced the Wii U back in June last year, the company remained tight-lipped about many of the finer details about the final spec and look of the hardware. The console unit that sits under your TV has always been subject to change, but now a leaked developer unit shows a pretty major overhaul to the controller. Is Nintendo seeing the error of its ways?

South-Park-RPG-1
When we found out that a fresh South Park game was coming out, and that it’d be an RPG with a proper amount of care and attention lavished upon it, we were quite pleased. The only problem? It’s suffered the same fate as the Tomb Raider reboot: the South Park RPG has just slid back into 2013.  Read more
