Unfortunately, Batman: Arkham Origins hasn't been released without some issues, and a lot of players have made remarks about bugs and glitches currently in the game. It seems quite a common occurrence these days to have a game released by a triple A development team that is filled with bugs, glitches and errors that really shouldn't be in the game at all.
It's ridiculously frustrating for the average gamer, and it makes us feel a bit used, really. It feels as if developers and publishers are simply using our love for games as a way to get to our wallets, and this story will just make us all even angrier.
What's really terrible about the bugs in Batman: Arkham Origins is that Warner Bros. know exactly what bugs are in the game, thanks to the dozens of reports spread across the internet, but despite this, they seem reluctant to do anything about them.
And the reason why Warner Bros. isn't in a hurry to fix the bugs in Arkham Origins is because they are focusing on something

Despite being out on the Xbox 360 since last year, no other ports have reached the market, apart for the pocket edition version for Android and iOS devices. However, that is about to change as it has been confirmed that 4J Studios, the team behind the console ports, has finally finished with the PS3 version and it is planned for a release this week.
On Tuesday, 17th December, Minecraft for PlayStation 3 will be available as a digital download on the PlayStation store. The Minecraft Xbox 360 version is available for around $20, so it's likely the price of the PlayStation 3 version will be similar, however we won't be able to find out until it's release day tomorrow.
Although it has taken 4J Studios a long time to port the Xbox version over to the PS3, the PlayStation version won't be missing out on any game content,

Sleeping Dogs was one open world action game that really caught a lot of our attention, and since then a lot of us have been wondering what has been going in the United Front Games studio after development finished for the title.
Whilst rumors have been laid on the table about a direct sequel to the first game, there has been no official information on whether that is true or not - except for now that is.
This week, a United Front Games developer revealed an image on Twitter that showed a small glimpse at what they have been working on since going quiet after Sleeping Dogs was released. It was later confirmed that the game was Triad Wars, which has been said to be a sequel for the first Sleeping Dogs game.
In the screenshot, we can see that the game looks to be a 3rd person game, so it's likely at this point that it is indeed the next lineup in the Sleeping Dogs series.
So far, details on the game have been pretty minimal, and in fact at this point there is almost

The fairly recent loyalty program, Xbox Games with Gold, has been confirmed by Microsoft as a permanent feature that will continue on past the Xbox One's launch. Before this confirmation, it was discussed by Microsoft that the promotion would only stay till the end of the year, but it looks as if somebody has managed to convince the big M to keep us a little bit happier with our monthly Xbox Gold subscriptions.
The Xbox Games with Gold loyalty promotion offers two free games each month to everybody who has an Xbox Live Gold account. It started out with little mention from Microsoft when Fable III mysteriously appeared on the Xbox marketplace for free, but it was later revealed that the game was part of the ongoing Games with Gold loyalty service.
Since then, Xbox Live Gold members have been treated with a bunch of fairly outdated games over the last few months, including games like Halo 3, Assassins' Creed II, Dead Rising 2, Crackdown and Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes.

After Grand Theft Auto V's amazingly successful launch, Microsoft have finally made a digital version of the game available for download on the Xbox Game's Store.
Like many of the full games available on the Xbox Games Store, the digital version of Grand Theft Auto V will go for $59.99 in the United States, and possibly around £50 in the UK. You will also need a total of 7.63GB free space to download the game onto your hard drive.
Whilst Microsoft have only just stepped up and released a digital copy of the game on their console's game marketplace, it has been available on the PlayStation Network since the game's launch.
Many players have complained that the PlayStation 3 digital version has had problems with textures popping in and out, texture clipping issues, and other strange and unexplainable glitches such as parts of the game spawning late or not spawning at all.
According to reports from officials, this is due to the hard drive not being able to stream

Despite only launching with two different gameplay modes, Conquest and Domination, DICE have just rolled out an update to the Battlefield 4 BETA to add another multiplayer game mode.
The new game mode is named Obliteration and should be available to play on all platforms that currently support the Beta. (PS3/Xbox 360/PC)
In Obliteration, a bomb will spawn in a randomly selected location on the map, and two teams will fight to pick up the bomb and then plant it in one of the three team's objective points.
As you can imagine, the bomb spawn point will be incredibly hectic, and once the bomb has gone off at an objective point, both teams will then have to fight for a new randomly placed bomb on the map.
Once a team has destroyed all three of their objectives, they will win the game. Alternatively, the game will end after the timer runs down.
In the full version of Battlefield 4, there will be a total of seven different multiplayer modes and ten different

If you're still stuck on the first mission on Grand Theft Auto Online, we've compiled a few tips that have reportedly helped other users get past the first mission. Despite talk of terrible servers and bad gameplay, it seems that as soon as you get past the first mission with Lamar, everything is very smooth.
Here are some tips to get past the first mission on GTA Online -
Delete your Character
This isn't such a big problem at this stage because it's unlikely that you have any progress on your GTA Online character. To delete your GTA:O character, go into story mode, press the menu button and go to the Online tab. From here you will need to click on select character and you can then delete characters from both available slots.
Delete the Title Update
To do this, you will need to access your game's data from either Xbox Home or the PS3 XMB, depending on what platform you're playing GTA on. On Xbox 360 it is called

A glitch has been found in Grand Theft Auto V that can potentially award the player with an infinite supply of cash. Players will be able to find briefcases of money hidden around the world which carry cash varying between 10 thousand and 25 thousand dollars and can pick them up to receive the money inside.
However, the glitch can allow the player to repeatedly collect the money from the suitcase over and over again, and surprisingly, the glitch is incredibly easy to do. This glitch can be done with any suitcase found within the world, but the largest amount of money found in a suitcase so far is the $25 thousand case, so it's much quicker to do the glitch with this case instead of others.
The hardest part of this glitch is actually finding the suitcase of money in the first place- the $25k suitcase can be found underwater directly on this spot:
