Currently working my way through Tomb Raider and thoroughly enjoying it. It's not quite up there with Uncharted but it's not far off.

Brilliant! Much appreciated Kenny.

I know it's only a CG trailer, but that is sexual.

Hadn't seen it before, only the teaser trailer so thanks Langers!

New Batman Arkham game announced, but it's not Origins, Kevin Conroy who has voiced Batman in previous Arkham titles tweeted that he will voice Batman in an upcoming Arkham title, but it's NOT Origins, Roger Craig Smith will voice Batman in Origins. Conroy has since deleted the tweet, probably due to him announcing there's a new Arkham game, long before Rocksteady were ready to announce it!

Either way a new batman game would be pretty epic.

The amount of awesome games that are going to released within the next couple of months will be brilliant.

That new batman will be for the new console I reckon as origins is being developed for the 360.

Agree completely, Origins this gen, next one for next gen, quite exciting to know that they actually have one for the new gen confirmed already though! Even though it will be a fair way away.

To make my week even better all I need is for GTA 5 to be announced on PC, I know they usually do bring it out but I just want it confirmed for definite, just for a release date, probably be around March/April '14 though.

What an innovative name.. xbox one! That's terrible.

 

[Langers]

It doesn't really matter about the name - it could have been worse. Better than 'Wii' FFS! They're actually showing the hardware though - they've certainly looked at the feedback from the PS4 announcement.

That's true, just with some of the names been banded about, I thought it would have been better than Xbox One.

I'm getting fed up of all these features, it's not a games console anymore, I understand people do like all this stuff, but these days companies just tend to shy away from games to add more features which is wrong.

But PS3 won the 'home entertainment hub' competition so they're trying to show that it's more than a console. I think it looks bloody awesome so far, but obviously I'm looking forward to seeing the games more than anything else.

Oh I know that, I think I'm just fed up (currently ill, so that doesn't help!), I want a powerful games console, that plays games well, not something I can use to watch a film, browse the internet and skype at the same time, I have a PC for that. I know it's not just about me, just from my POV.

The games are the most important thing for me.

Not liking the look of any of it though, looks like a freeview box, kinect just looks like a long box, and that controller looks awful.

Twitter is hilarious with the console 'fanboys' either drooling over it, or slagging it off depending on their 'side'. It's a machine FFS!! Never understood the console 'wars'. I've often had both leading machines.

 

[Langers]

This bit's annoying though - enough with the the shit player interviews, show us the games!!

I do find it funny, it's just so childish, you use it to play games, what does it matter, really?

I find myself slagging it off now, but I know as soon as I see it instore, I'm gonna be telling Game to take my money.

Wonder if Kevin Doyle will still look like a frog with his massive eyes on the new FIFA?
