Madden 99 million Sales

Madden has been one of the most well received sports franchises of them all, and after 25 years of solid gaming, the sports series has finally hit the 99 million mark. FIFA managed to hit this title in 2010, so Madden still has competition, however, for Football fans this is a great milestone in gaming history.

The 99 million sales have also brought in over $3.7 billion total life net revenue. If that's not enough to celebrate though, this year marks Madden's 25th year, and EA Sports will be releasing the next Madden title as Madden 25, instead of Madden NFL 14.

Madden 25 will hit the PS3 and Xbox 360 platforms on August 27 later this year, and although

Game of Thrones in Minecraft

A few days ago we mentioned about Mojang's huge success with their sandbox game Minecraft, and here is a great example of why Minecraft has reached such popularity.

The game has always been very caring towards the creative and modding community, and there are plenty of channels showcasing off player-created content within the game. One piece of Minecraft art has astounded me, and it's been created in so much detail that from a distance it almost doesn’t look like Minecraft at all.

The creators, Westoroscraft has accurately built a scene straight from A Game of Thrones, the popular book and TV series. Westoroscraft has managed to fit in

Notch earns $101 Million

The success from Minecraft has been outstanding, and no one quite expected an indie developer like Mojang to score so big and compete in sales with big budget games backed by multi-billion dollar publishers, but no one person has been more pleasantly surprised than Notch, the founding developer of Minecraft.

Notch, or Markus Persson, has managed to score $101 million in 2012 from the super successful Minecraft, bringing in chart topping sales from PC, Xbox, iOS and Android. This big cash sum is also separate from other money given to other members of the indie developer Mojang, and this $101 million dollar sum has gone straight to Notch himself.

PS4 Reveal FEB 20th

Everyone has been anticipating the new PlayStation and Xbox consoles for quite a while now, and although we haven't heard much official information, we've been regularly hit in the face with rumors regarding the two consoles, some being more credible than others.

However, we may finally have some solid evidence on the PlayStation 4, and what’s more, the console could be revealed as early as February 20^th.

Limited Edition White PS3

The life of the PS3 is on thin lines now that the next gen PlayStation is so close, but that doesn't mean it's finished quite yet. For those that are still interested in buying a PlayStation 3, or want to grab a new one instead of waiting out for the next PlayStation, the new limited edition Classic White Instant Game Bundle may be for you.

Despite the unibody white color, the new console is a clone of the fairly new PS3 Ultra Slim. The console comes with 500GB storage, giving you the potential of around 300 full length movies.

The console bundle also comes with a free year's subscription to PlayStation Plus, as well as 12 popular PlayStation

Black Ops maintenance

Recently Treyarch has informed PlayStation players that they may have trouble connecting to, and staying in a game due to maintenance on the PlayStation network. It was nice for Treyarch to give notice to players, and although Treyarch gave little information on the reason for the maintenance, they wanted players to be patient and understanding of the situation.

The PlayStation network maintenance lasted most of the day, and although most PlayStation owners should be able to access most of the features, players may have difficulty getting into online play on some titles.

An official announcement by Treyarch on the matter was unexpected though, so it may

Microsoft Rewards for GTA 5

Grand Theft Auto 5 is going to be very successful. And when you look at the release of the previous game, you'll understand as well as I that there is no doubt about its upcoming success.

However, with a title as big as this, the two big console manufacturers, Microsoft and Sony, are bound to offer incentives to rope people into buying on their console instead of the other, and with the next-gen approaching, both manufacturers are probably going to try and squeeze as many pennies as possible out of the pockets of loyal gamers.

But what if you have both an Xbox 360 and PS3? If you look past the social aspects that both platforms have to offer,

Spartan Ops New Locations

343 Industries have given a few websites a preview into the next and final episodes of Spartan Ops for Halo 4. An unexpected press release was also given, and it gives details on new areas to visit in Spartan Ops.

In the previous five episodes of Spartan Ops, players have played in the Requiem sandbox, featuring many assets from both singleplayer and multiplayer maps being used more than once. From looking at the press release from 343 Industries, it's safe to say that the last five Spartan Ops missions will include a change of scenery, offering more variety in gameplay and overall appearance whilst playing.

Hitman HD Trilogy

Trilogy releases are usually only seen when a game series reaches an unprecedented level of success, or fans beg and plead for it to be released, so an HD trilogy for the Hitman series is a little unexpected. However, the trilogy will allow new players of the series to understand the story of Hitman and its origins, and old and new players alike can grab themselves a decently packaged copy of the three games.

The three games will be included in one package that will also come with an art book including 22 pieces of artwork representing the game. On top of this, players can submit their own art on a new website at www.whois47.com, recently announced by
