Sony mixed things up a little this year, electing to skip a Gamescom that have moved uncomfortably close to E3 and choosing to have its own show at Paris Games Week in the dying embers of October. Its conference on Tuesday evening brought everything you'd expect from a big show: new announcements about existing upcoming games, and big reveals such as Gran Turismo Sport and Quantic Dream's new game Detroit.

Anyone else's kids play Moshi Monsters? My eldest moved on but it was a huge thing a couple of years ago (and hasn't gotten any smaller) - a gold standard for online kids games along with Club Penguin. So it was odd to see Moshi Monsters, of all games, accused of "direct exhortation" by UK watchdog the Advertising Standards Agency recently.

Konami has shipped 5m copies of Metal Gear Solid 5.

Respawn has announced a new Titanfall game for smartphones.

For developer 343 Industries, the honeymoon period is over. It's been three years since Halo 4 came out for the Xbox 360. Halo 5, built for the more powerful Xbox One, is the studios' second shot at what was once the biggest franchise in gaming. Now, after all the marketing hype, after all the flashy television adverts, after all the fictional investigative audio files on Soundcloud, after all the promoted tweets and the carefully constructed hashtags, has 343 done enough to step out of Bungie's shadow and into the spotlight?

DICE has delayed Mirror's Edge Catalyst from 23rd February until 24th May 2016.

It was, in its own way, the biggest surprise of this year's E3. In a year when we got the announcements of Shenmue 3, the remake of Final Fantasy 7 and the return of The Last Guardian, that's not bad going. No-one outside of Square Enix could have predicted that, five years after the original's middling reception played a part in the closure of developer Cavia, Nier was to get a sequel.

You may have already seen a couple of videos that we've published featuring Just Cause 3 - one of which gives you a sense of the game's scale, whereas the other one is just, well, a bit weird.

It's no joke. Four months after it was pulled from sale for releasing as an unplayable buggy mess, Batman: Arkham Knight is back for sale on Steam.

When Sega discontinued production of the Dreamcast console in 2001 and withdrew from the domestic hardware market, it marked the conclusion of one of the most tumultuous and error-strewn periods in the company's 72-year history.

The sales success of the PlayStation 4 shows no sign of slowing down.

Nintendo has unveiled Miitomo, the company's first game designed specifically for smartphones, which will launch in March 2016.

The rise of the narrative adventure presents fresh challenges for both developers and reviewers alike. The reliable old mechanical barometers of quality become less important when your only interaction with the game world is to walk through and occasionally pick things up - features that are now pre-baked into every middleware game engine, and thus nearly impossible to get wrong.

Microsoft has named its November line-up of free games headed to the Games with Gold.

Nintendo has sparked a heated debate among the Zelda community after an internet meme was included in the series' latest release.

The UK tabloids this morning report the 15-year-old arrested for hacking TalkTalk was a "violent video game addict" who wanted to be a professional Call of Duty player.
