The one in which no one says anything interesting.
After dabbling with the Now TV app on the PS4 (which is rubbish if you're wondering), I finally got round to giving Wolfenstein a whirl. It's early days, but so far the shooting feels nice and meaty, which is great. The way the game suddenly changes its look when it snaps to cutscenes is a little jarring, but hopefully this will be less of an issue once I've put more time in.

Yeah, I've been playing Resident Evil HD again. Of course. This time I was attempting to speedrun it with...
Good news: Dying Light isn't shit. It's actually quite good, in fact. So far it resembles Dead Island meets Far Cry, retaining the melee combat of the former while jettisoning its catastrophic bugs.
It feels familiar – there's no way it couldn't given the developer's heritage, its influences, and the current (and seemingly everlasting) zombie vogue. But Dying Light is a far more technologically accomplished, not to mention confident, game than Techland's other apocalypses, perhaps best emphasised by your first playable view of Harran being from the top of the world, not the...
Overall, the game earned a gross revenue of $4,902,945 and generated over 200 million Let's Play video views. The majority of people didn't seem interested in finishing the game, however, with only 37 per cent of players completing the story.
For the full list of stats, take a look at the infographic below.
Chalice Dungeons give players new experience on each visit.
A new Bloodborne trailer released by Sony has explained the game's new procedurally-generated 'Chalice Dungeons'.
Presented by producer Masaaki Yamagiwa, the video goes into further details about the Chalice Dungeons and Messenger Creatures, which behave in a similar way to the Souls series' Soul Signs which allowed players to leave messages for other people.
"The Chalice Dungeons are underground ruins found beneath the city of Yharnam." Yamagiwa says. "It's a vast area with many different levels and layers. The concept we had is that they change depending whoever is...
Expect the disappearing heavy weapon ammunition bug to be fixed by the end of February.
The bug raises its ugly head when the player dies, returns to orbit or when triggering a cut-scene. All that rare ammo suddenly vanishes and you begin to rage.
"For some time now, we've been tracking this one," Bungie explained. "To date, the best we've been able to do is to admit that we were aware of the issue. This week, we can give you some additional information."
The update adds that Sandbox Engineer Jon Cable is "working on a fix that we hope to deploy before the end of February".
Cable tried to explain why the bug has been happening and what the...
The downsizing will begin this month, although the total number of affected employees won't become clear until early summer. Some members of staff will be offered relocation packages at the new Californian office.
"This move was crucial to keep SEGA operations moving forward throughout North America and to provide our millions of fans a strong pipeline of content across gaming, TV, merchandising, and more," said SOA president John Cheng. "We are confident that by relocating to Southern California we will be able to thrive, grow and become a stronger company because of it."
Decision will let players "live out some of their most memorable Star Wars battle fantasies".
The decision, DICE says, "will allow players to live out some of their most memorable Star Wars battle fantasies."
"The scale of our maps and modes offer a great variety," design director Niklas Fegraeus explained to IGN.
"We have actually made the decision to specifically tailor certain maps to certain game modes,and what we get from that is not only incredibly varied scales, but also gameplay that will allow players to live out some of their most memorable Star Wars battle fantasies."
Ice planet Hoth, for example, is said to differ in size to forest planet...

Endor, storm troopers and AT-STs revealed in first artwork.
The artwork, which was posted by IGN last night, appears to show a level depicting the planet Endor and features two Rebel fighters taking cover behind a tree as an AT-ST fires its laser cannons. A pair of stormtroopers can also be seen running alongside the walker.
The artwork follows a tease from EA earlier this week stating that fo on Star Wars Battlefront would be revealed "in the next couple of months".
The game is due to release on PS4, Xbox One and PC this Christmas.
Tesco cuts the price of an 8GB Wii U to below £100.
While the reduction doesn't mark an official price cut, it does add weight to reports stating that Nintendo had cut the cost price of the console late last year.
Back in December, MCV reported that the cost price of an 8GB Wii U had been reduced by £70 in an attempt to "clear out" existing stock. Nintendo does not set the retail price for hardware in the UK, with the price instead determined by retailers themselves.
The Basic 8GB Wii U pack usually retails for around £149.99.
The more expensive 32GB Wii U does not appear to have received any major...
£8.99 gets you the acclaimed Wii game, re-released for Wii U.
After the week is over the game will be priced £17.99.
At this price it's a bit of a steal, even if the Wii U version doesn't support the Wii U GamePad, meaning you'll need to play with the Wiimote and Nunchuck.
GameCube hits Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes were updated with motion controls when released for Wii, bringing them in line with the controls found in Wii shooter Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

The beta will be open to all players on PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3 and PC until it ends on Sunday, February 8.
Throughout the week, players will be given access to three game modes – Hotwire, Conquest and Heist – across a selection of multiplayer maps, including Downtown, Dust Bowl and Bank Job.

From February 4, PS4 users will be able to download indie hit Transistor and Greek mythology action-RPG Apotheon free of charge, replacing last month's free games The Swapper and Infamous: First Light.
Meanwhile, PS3 users will be given Square Enix's jewel-nicking stealth game Thief and cult action title Yakuza 4, with PS Vita users offered side-scrolling platform adventure Kick & Fennick.
Rogue Legacy will also be available as a free cross-buy title on PS4, PS3 and PS Vita.
If you've yet to download last months games, make sure to grab them before next...
Sometimes what you need arrives at the most unexpected time.
Being what is often referred to as "a man", I obviously didn't start this adventure the way I probably should have: amazon.co.uk, search, shelf, buy. No, of course not, but in fairness I didn't need any ordinary shelf – oh no. Let me paint a picture for you, with words written below.
In my bedroom, where I hoped my Xbox One would reside along with myself, there is a chest of drawers. Pre-Christmas Day 2014 (but not before October 2014), this chest was home to my PS4 and a variety of other everyday items – the stuff that has no home and is repeatedly dumped there so often it...
First in a ten part interactive narrative driven game based on Kurt Sutter's acclaimed drama series.
The Prospect is described as an interactive narrative adventure game based on Kurt Sutter's acclaimed crime drama about an outlaw motorcycle club, which recently came to an end after seven seasons on FX.
The ten part game series was developed in conjunction with independent studio Silverback Games, in creative collaboration with Kurt Sutter and his writing team.
Featuring an original story which follows Alex "Tig" Trager, portrayed on television and in game by actor Kim Coates, the game explores new and familiar characters, settings and intrigue within the Sons of...
Meteos also now in the hands of Mizuguchi's Enhance Games.
The California-based Enhance Games is already working on a new Lumines title for mobile platforms. The game will retain the music and feel of the franchise, but promises a reworked play style for the mobile gamer.
There's no word on what's happening with Meteos, but it seems safe to assume a new game is also on the way.
Arriving in June, LEGO Jurassic World follows the storylines of all three previous Jurassic Park movies and this summer's Jurassic World.
Then, in autumn, LEGO Marvel's Avengers will let players experience the storylines from The Avengers and upcoming sequel Avengers: Age of Ultron in their quest to save humanity.
Both games will be available on PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PS Vita, Wii U, Nintendo 3DS and PC.
"The LEGO videogame franchise remains a cornerstone of our business, consistently delivering fun, engaging gameplay and remarkable humour both kids...
The new service will let first-class passengers flying between Australia and the US experience in-flight entertainment via a Samsung Gear VR headset – the first time VR has been available in a commercial flight.
The headset is said to let users take a virtual tour of Qantas' Los Angeles First Lounge or "experience an A380 landing from the tarmac".
"From an inflight entertainment perspective, it's an industry first," said Qantas marketing exec Olivia Wirth. "Qantas is committed to being at the forefront of innovation to give our passengers the very best and latest...
But he doesn't know anything about it himself. Apparently.
"Unfortunately we work on Revelations and that's kind of it," Okabe told VideoGamer.com earlier this week while discussing the future of Resident Evil.
"We don't really have a window into whatever else is going on. That would be a separate team and whatever that team is doing we're confident that those guys are going to do something that's going to blow our minds.
"We can't wait to basically be there with you guys to find out whatever the heck that is."
While Capcom has yet to announce plans for the future of the main series, it does have plans to launch...
