Well I bet this question was on the minds of several gamers, and might even have been sought by many. We already got both versions for several games including Call of Duty Ghosts and Assassin's Creed 4, so would it really be surprising to get a next gen port for GTA 5?
I mean no official news has been announced yet, and maybe even Rockstar is assessing the situation but we all thought at a point that GTA5 might be released for the next gen consoles. A big reason why a lot of us actually still hold on to our current games is also the fact that GTA5 was released on them.
During a recent interview with Lazlow, one the franchise mainstays, he responded to the question about whether gamers would see GTA5 on the next gen consoles. To this he responded with, "[they] haven't announced anything yet" followed by a wink which Lazlow explained was just a momentary reaction to a "seizure."
I mean at a point it is sort of inevitable. The new consoles

Well I don't think fans would really mind if Assassin's Creed took a year off. The fact that a lot of them were not happy with the idea of Assassin's Creed 4 coming out so quickly was subdued because the game was good, but fear is rising that this franchise is turning into Call of Duty.
But lo behold, recent rumors suggest that Ubisoft might not be just coming out with one, but two Assassin's Creed installments for 2014. One of the games are supposedly being developed just for the PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii U while the other is being developed for the PS4 and Xbox One. In addition to that, the franchise is supposedly attempting a "massive re-scope"

Well if you're one of the lucky ones to have a PS4 then you don't have to worry. But those who have yet been able to grab one, you might still have to wait a bit. Sony is having the sale of their lives and it seems regardless of their plans of constantly restocking retailers, the demand is far from being met.
During an interview with the Gardian, SCE CEO Andrew House said that Sony doesn't expect that they will be able to fulfill demands until even February. He said, "So I'd characterise it as being somewhat supply-challenged for the remainder of the calendar year, but hopefully we’ll be able to satisfy that pent-up demand as we get out to January and February."
As of now, despite the unavailability, Sony expects the PS4 to outsell the PS3 within the firs fiscal year. Since its launch in November 2006 till March 2007, the PS3 sold a total of 3.5 million units. Standing by their initial assessment, they are expecting that the PS4 will sell 5 million units during the

Finally, we get a glimpse into one of the most anticipated exclusives for the PlayStation 4, The Order. Most of us were sold the moment we saw the steampunk-ish universe. DualShockers recently revealed this bit of info from a Japanese cinematic trailer which showcased these new bits of information. Some of the key highlights are listed below but make sure to go to the site to get all the details.
-- Suddenly, mutations appeared in the human genetic code. While the change wasn't immediately visible, some began to show traits similar to beasts. This turned them into a species different from humanity, and marked the birth of the half-breed (half man, half beast).
-- Although mankind had the advantage in sheer numbers, it was inferior to the half breed because of their resilience and overwhelming regenerative powers.
-- At last, after a few centuries passed, humanity is presented with a chance to retaliate. Brave men and women vowed

Dead Rising 3 is probably the first game in a long while that has helped Capcom get back onto their feet, and they definitely aren’t going to let any opportunities to cash in on the Dead Rising series go to waste.
Whether you're a fan of Capcom or not, there’s no denying that the whole DLC trend is becoming quite frustrating, but it is unfortunately a product of the modern day game industry that most of us have had to live with.
Capcom has recently revealed details on new upcoming DLC content for Dead Rising 3, and it actually sounds like something i'd be interested in getting. Capcom has confirmed that there will be four DLC packs available in the future for Dead Rising 3, and they will all be part of the Untold Stories of Los Perdidos DLC series.
Instead of just adding wacky new weapons or equipment, the game DLC will instead act as a story expansion that follows the life of Spec Ops Commander Adam Kane, as players take control

If you haven't got enough online DC face-smashing action out of Injustice: Gods Among Us or Batman Arkham: Origins, you may want to put your copy of Batman Arkham Origins into your Xbox or PlayStation as Warner Bros. have just released a new patch that adds an online multiplayer mode into the game.
The new online multiplayer mode has been named 'Hunter, Hunted' and it splits players into three different teams. The first team is a three man team of Bane's thugs, the second is a similarly sized team of the Joker's thugs, and the last team is of course Batman.
The game is in essence a team-based elimination game mode because after a player is downed, he or she

At the VGX awards this weekend, the developers behind the next gen FPS shooter, Titanfall, revealed two new Titans that will be operable within the game.
Before this point, only one Titan, the Atlas was known by the public, but we now know of three total mechs that players will be able to control.
The first one has been called the Ogre and, as the name suggests it will be a much, heavier, bulkier and more resistant version of the Atlas. The Ogre titan will have greater armor than any other titan, but at the cost of movement speed. To use this titan, players will have to unlock it first.
The next titan revealed at the VGX awards was the Stryder, and it takes on a roll that is the polar opposite of the Ogre titan. This means that the Stryder will have considerably less armor than it's counterparts, but it will be relatively faster, allowing players to traverse the map quicker and dodge incoming attacks from other foot soldiers or other titans on the enemy team.

The top down shooter, Halo: Spartan Assault was first released on Windows Phone, but it looks as if the game will now slowly make it's way over to Microsoft consoles as well. A new announcement by Microsoft has revealed that the game will be available on the Xbox One by Christmas Eve, and will be running at 60fps and in 1080P, which really isn't anything special, considering that the game can be run on a smartphone.
The game will be available on Xbox One for $15, however if you already own the Windows Phone copy (which costs $7) you'll only have to pay $5 for the Xbox One console version.
So, if you are planning to purchase the Xbox One version, it makes sense to buy the Windows Phone version first to save yourself a couple bucks.
The new Xbox One version will also include some new content such as a
