Last year, Square Enix said it was "very disappointed" that the high review scores for Crystal Dynamics' Tomb Raider reboot had not translated into the equally high sales it had expected for the game - a whopping 5-6 million units within four weeks.

It may only be early in development, but the way Rust mixes elements of games like DayZ and Minecraft together has already proved irresistible to a huge number of people who have picked it up on Steam Early Access.

After little more than the odd, teasing tweet from Hideo Kojima to show for its vital signs, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance arrives as a competent, if not entirely awe-inspiring port to PC. It's been almost a year since the PS3 and 360 releases, and so expectations are high for the esteemed Platinum Games to deliver more than just a barebones port of its latest hack-and-slash success. However, the lack of previous PC releases from the company over the last generation makes this a daring first attempt at the practise - with a mixture of results that mostly point to the positive.

Nidhogg? Sounds like hedgehog! What is this odd game people are talking about?

Incongnita, the turn-based strategy game by Don't Starve developer Klei, will henceforth be known as Invisible, Inc.

Sony has developed brand new PS3 hardware to power its PlayStation Now streaming service, revealed earlier this month at CES in Las Vegas.

It's the new PlayStation hardware that everyone will have access to, but few will actually see.

"In the first week of 2014, $400k was paid out to content creators", noted Valve during the second Steam Day (summarised on Steamdb) - those content creators being people like you or me who belong to the Team Fortress 2 or Dota 2 communities.

Forget Google Glass, the team at Google now want direct access to your eyeballs. But - wait for it - it's for a good cause.

More than any other video game publisher, Nintendo understands the power and value of its own heritage. Amongst its rivals, rumours of careless curation abound: Sega has reportedly lost the source code to its much-lauded Sega Saturn RPG Panzer Dragoon Saga, while OutRun Online Arcade has slipped from Xbox Live's servers, never to return.

UPDATE: Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has apologised to shareholders for the company's business performance but pledged to stay in office, Nikkei reports (as translated by NeoGAF).

There's always a girl, there's always a lighthouse, and perhaps behind one of those doors is a universe where the Hollywood's ill-fated BioShock movie was released.

Steam's current free weekend offering is rather enticing with the delightfully goofy - and disarmingly sophisticated - open world adventure Saints Row 4 along with World War 2 strategy game Company of Heroes 2 being free to play between now and Sunday at 9pm GMT.

UPDATE: Titanfall developer Respawn has confirmed the existence of a pre-launch test - although you probably won't be taking part in it.

The best selling games platform in the US last year was the Nintendo 3DS, US numbers company NPD has revealed.

Resogun is an enigma. It tasks you with many goals - save the last humans, beat the level, keep up your multiplier - but it's not always clear what to focus on to topple the leaderboards. The game itself suggests that the multiplier is your main priority to achieve a high rank, and it is, but that's only scratching the surface.

UPDATE 2: As those of you playing Hearthstone may have observed, the patch implementing the card changes promised below is now available, so it's time to boot out all those Novice Engineers and make tricky decisions about your Dark Iron Dwarfs and Defenders of Argus. The patch was around 5MB, I think.

Sherlock Holmes and Magrunner developer Frogwares is working on a Call of Cthulhu game, publisher Focus Home Interactive has announced.

UPDATE: Curious what Magnetized creator Rocky Hong's reaction was to those who cloned his game without his permission then apologised for it, thinking he wouldn't mind? Apparently he's still sore at the plagiarists who offered him a few hundred bucks in revenue as a mea culpa.

Broken Age contains a secret Retro Mode that suggests what the game may have looked like had it been developed in the mid 80s.

The Fullbright Company's exploration-based coming-of-age story Gone Home has been parodied by Dorkly's Tony Wilson in the following trailer for its fake DLC Gun Home.

Hokuto no Ken - or Fist of the North Star as it's known in the West - is Japan's Mad Max 2 derivative; a vision of primal brutality, god-like power, and teeth-rattling violence. Taking on a life of its own since its 1983 genesis, it's outlived its influences by a considerable margin.

Next-gen versions of Tetris are headed to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, courtesy of Ubisoft.

It's getting harder and harder to keep on top of all the games hitting early access, but there are some that really stand out. Starbound, for instance, has struck a nerve for anyone jonesing for some procedurally generated 2D thrills. Terraria in space is one way of putting it, but anyone more eloquent than me would likely be able to sell it to you a little more gracefully.

The iPad version of Baldur's Gate 2: Enhanced Edition has released on the App Store.
