Borderlands 2
Borderlands 2 has been out for almost two weeks now, and the amount of content within the game is unbelievable. If you've managed to get your hands on the game, I'm sure you've probably been pleasantly swamped with side quests, customization options and many other aspects of the gameplay that make it so great and immersive, but there are some features in the game that aren't so easy to spot. We're talking about Easter eggs, baby.
Probably one of the most widely known Easter eggs in Borderlands 2 is the inclusion of an area dedicated to the popular sandbox game, Minecraft. A place called Caustic Caverns has an area sectioned off by blocks that

Dead Island Riptide, a direct sequel to Techland's hit zombie survival game Dead Island, was announced by publisher Deep Silver quite some time ago at this year's E3. Since that initial reveal there was nothing else mentioned in the coming months except that it would cost $50.
But now it seems that Deep Silver is ready to slowly reveal some of the details surrounding the game. Just a few days ago Deep Silver released a press release that gave a bit of the story of the next iteration. The following is an excerpt from the press release:
"Having survived the ordeals of the zombie infestation on the once beautiful island resort of Banoi, our group of survivors thought they had finally found a safe place to escape from this terrifying nightmare, [but] they were wrong. Shortly after the battle-hardened team had landed their helicopter on a military ship, a furious storm hits and havoc quickly spreads on board. Suddenly they find themselves struggling for their lives again with all

Assassin's Creed 3 is going to be epic and there are several reasons for that. Since the first Assassin's Creed game no other game in the franchise had so many years in development; a total of 3 years according to Ubisoft. That was a smart move since the players were already getting a bit tired of the annual releases (just like with COD).
However the biggest reason why it is going to be great, aside from the epic proportions of the game, is Connor, our brand new Assassin. And according to Ubisoft's new trailer their new engine, Anvil Next, is what gels the whole experience together.
The trailer tells us a bit more about the Anvil Next and explains how it has allowed Ubisoft to radically improve

Treyarch has repeated time and time again that they are going to make the whole Black Ops 2 experience epic and from what we have seen from GamesCom, they sure did keep their word. In this article I will bring to you what I feel were the top features of Black Ops 2 multiplayer (shown till now).
Class Creation - 10 Point System
Treyarch has completely redefined the create-a-class feature that has remained pretty much standard since the first Modern Warfare. They have implemented a new 10 Point System with which players can now build their class (points are used to equip weapons, equipments etc.). This system removes the restraints of having fixed number of grenades, equipments and weapons, and will essentially allow players to make their very own unique class that suits their playing style.
Killstreaks replaced by Scorestreaks
Black Ops 2 will also be utilizing Scorestreaks instead of Killstreaks (similar to that seen in Modern Warfare 3). This system will allow

Resident Evil 6 Gameplay Info
Resident Evil 6 is taking the franchise into a whole new direction, away from the survival horror genre to more of an action adventure genre. Not many people were happy about that of course especially long term fans who enjoyed the games because of the horror factor.
I myself am an old school fan of the franchise and honestly RE is still my pretty much my favorite franchise (RE3 being my favorite). I didn't judge Capcom too much for the shift in genre but I hoped they wouldn't mess it up too much. Based on what I saw from the gameplay videos available for RE6, I liked some of the changes while disliked others.

Call of Duty Perk Programme
With all that is happening in the US regarding Call of Duty I guess UK didn't want to feel left out. UK's GAME recently announced their "Call of Duty Perk Programme". Basically this program will be giving off goodies to die hard CoD fans who will be pre-ordering the game.
The first wave will be receiving a Quadrotor theme for PS3 owners or a Quadrotor drone avatar for Xbox 360 owners. These bonuses could be one of the last waves for those who pre-order it from GameStop.
For now though, Nuketown 2025 and a double-sided poster have been revealed as the first two waves of pre-order bonuses for those who pre-order from GameStop.
