News Square Enix Formally Announces "The Tomb Raider Trilogy" For PlayStation 3
We always follow the same cycle whenever we play a Tomb Raider game
We load it up, watch a few cut-scenes, wander around the world and feel extremely happy. The tutorial levels teach us all the mechanics and we feel stoked about the rest of the game. About an hour later, we hit a brick wall. As we enter an enormous room, the camera zooms out and...

News Check Out The First Ten Minutes Of The Prince Of Persia Trilogy HD
That Prince Of Persia Trilogy HD disc is out in Europe next week

News Isomniac Would Get Behind A Ratchet & Clank Collection
We love the Ratchet & Clank games
Love them. But they're all a bit, well, similar aren't they? We're not sure how well a collection would work.

They confirmed in a Tweet that, while they wouldn't make a Ratchet collection, they'd definitely put...
News Amazon France Drop Team ICO Collection Bombshell
We all know it's happening
The Team ICO Collection, that is. To be honest, it's probably already finished. "Why's it being held back then?" you scream. Marketing.
