It's a game-changer.

All of this is happening in parallel with the meteoric rise of streaming services like Twitch, which along with the continued success of YouTube offers a robust platform for anyone to transmit their gameplay to the world, whether livestreaming or simply sharing video.

Hello Eurogamers! We picked you in the internet Secret Santa draw (shh), so we got you this selection of the week's videos on Outside Xbox. We hope you like it, it was this or socks.

Regarded by many as one of the finest games of 2013, Super Mario 3D World serves to remind us of a day when console games were released as complete, polished products free of day-one patches and DLC.

A slew of details around Dark Souls 2's covenants has come to light.

UPDATE: Analyst Michael Pachter has told Eurogamer he now believes it is Dead Space developer Visceral making the shooter.

UPDATE: I've been playing this for a few hours and it's a generous game with a lot on offer. However, there comes a point when you feel urged to spend your own money in order to acquire some of the epic hero characters from the Dragon Age game in order to compete more aggressively with other people. It's not a necessity, and you can get by without, but it's what you'll want to do.

It's not finished. Even after a day one patch that brings in multiplayer, seasonal events and new special events, Gran Turismo 6 is far from complete.
