News Oh No, They Put System of a Down in the Mortal Kombat X Commercial
Wake up
Well, this author's just been transported back to 2001, when baggie jeans and Linkin Park were considered cool.

News Shadow of Mordor Gets Its Blood Soaked Hands on Another Game of the Year Award
Talion to the next
We remember the days when people just weren't sure about Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.

News GAME's Selling a £250,000 Dying Light Collector's Edition

Not quite witchcraft
One of the biggest complaints people have with the PlayStation 4 is that even when you grab a physical copy of a game, your console's hard drive is still going to take a beating thanks to sometimes massive data install sizes, and it looks like that isn't about to change any time soon. Indeed, if you haven't swapped out your...

Feature Should You Buy Dying Light on the PS4?
Bump in the night
This is not a review. As is the case with virtually all other publications, we only got access to Dying Light this week – around the same time as its North American launch.

Jurassic World, Marvel's Avengers, and more on the way
