STICK 'EM UP, THIS IS A ROBBERY! That's probably what I should have shouted upon entering my most recent heist target, the Benevolent Bank - it would have been the sensible option. Instead, I threw a grenade at my feet and accidentally downed myself before the tellers even had the chance to trigger the alarm. With a performance like that, I should probably stick to virtual heisting in future.

The people behind upcoming open-world role-playing game The Witcher 3 have a trick up their sleeve when it comes to the resolution of the Xbox One version.

For a game I didn't think I was particularly taken with, I've certainly spent a lot of time playing Geometry Wars 3. Mostly, I've been replaying the Topaz boss, also known as level 50.

Speedrunning games, i.e. the practice of completing them in the quickest time possible, has become a popular phenomenon in the industry over the last several years. And why wouldn't it?
