The beautiful and very successful mobile series Monument Valley is going to be turned into a movie of sorts and, excitingly, Patrick Osborne is at the helm.

Remember last year when that magical talking Pikachu video went viral on the internet? Well, I can't promise this year's Pokémon film will be quite as exciting, but it should still be quite a treat for British Pokémon fans when it arrives in cinemas late November.

Yes, you read the headline right. Capcom has announced that Mega Man is being adapted into a live-action Hollywood film for the first time (and maybe the last).

Remember when the Dance Dance Revolution film was announced back in October? Did you think it couldn't get any weirder? Apparently it can, as plans are now in place for a Just Dance movie adaptation. I guess Hollywood's superhero well is finally starting to dry up.

A YouTuber dad and his five-year-old daughter have been delighting corners of the internet with an equal parts adorable and thrilling ten-minute fan film inspired by Hello Games' space exploration sim, No Man's Sky.

Everyone knows it's tough to make a film version of a video game, but I'd venture it's also pretty difficult the other way around. You have to take a 90-minute movie with a three-act plot and stretch it into a 20-hour game without too much filler? Rather you than me. I remember Capcom's Aladdin on the SNES - designed by a pre-Resident Evil Shinji Mikami - and its lengthy platforming sections set within Genie's lamp that I'm pretty certain do not occur at any point within Disney canon. And if Mikami had enjoyed making that, I suspect, we would never have got Dino Crisis.

Conviction, the live action Anthem short film from District 9 director Neil Blomkamp, is now available to watch online.

Whether you enjoyed the first film or not, a Tomb Raider 2 appears to be on the cards.

Although the bar was set fairly low, Detective Pikachu has managed to claim the title of best ever opening weekend for a video game film. In the US, at least.

In an extended blog post that reads like a first year philosophy student essay, Valve has been debating what counts as a Steam review bomb. With itself.

Starbreeze Studios' masterful fantasy adventure Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is making the move to Switch next week, on 28th May, and it arrives with a notable new feature in the form of proper two-player co-op support.

No excuses, no denial - publisher 505 Games has announced the cancellation of Ashes Cricket 2013 "following negative consumer feedback".

Oculus VR will have a very merry Christmas indeed after it raised $75 million to help complete the consumer version of the Rift headset.

Valve is being sued by Australia's consumer rights commission, the ACCC (Australian Competition and Consumer Commission), over its cumbersome refund policy on Steam.

Oculus has revealed the launch design of its virtual reality Rift headset, which will finally go on full sale to consumers during the first quarter of 2016.

Changes to the Consumer Rights Act come into effect today - and give gamers better protection when it comes to faulty goods.

UPDATE 10/11/2015 6.37pm: Samsung's Gear VR headset is shipping in the US on 20th November. Pre-orders are currently available on Amazon, Best Buy and Samsung's online store.

Last night, Bethesda laid clear its policy on media reviews from Dishonored 2 onwards. In a short statement on its official site from global content lead Gary Steinman - himself a former games journalist - Bethesda announced that you won't see any reviews before the launch of its games because it will continue to send out code to publications a day before release. It's not a particularly surprising statement, even if Bethesda deemed it shocking enough to put behind an age gate.

A day on from our first look at Spider-Man running on a PlayStation 5-like setup, EA has debuted some next-gen tech of its own. It's all about hair.

Hi, I'm Wesley, and I was addicted to World of Warcraft.

A "gaming disorder" could become a proper medical condition should a draft of the updated International Classification of Diseases manual be approved unamended roughly a year from now.

Valve has announced new measures to tackle review bombing on Steam, and will soon begin ensuring that "off-topic" review activity isn't reflected within a game's overall store rating.

The Steam library home page is a familiar sight for PC players. For years, we've been greeted with a long list of games on the left tab, a menagerie of small hyperlinks and weird patches of empty space.

Nearly a year after Apple rejected Valve's game streaming app, Steam Link has finally been approved for iOS and Apple TV - meaning you can now stream Skyrim straight from your Steam library to your iPhone. Howard 'bout that.
