Bien fait pour votre succès Rayman! Eurogamer have recently analysed the the UK top 40 game charts since 1996 to see which games have seen the most weeks within the chart.

What can I say, I am disappointed that there is no new Bayonetta coming. Well, that is presuming that this news is what Yusuke Hashimoto was teasing me with earlier in the week.

The enemy...

Transformers doesn’t strike me as the most likely series to lend itself to an MMO, but I can see that this would be a good time to bring one out considering the revival the franchise has seen over the last few years. The game has been officially licensed by Hasbro and is being developed by Chinese developer NetDragon who specialise in online games. The...

If, like me, you are excited about the upcoming release of Dead Rising 2, then this map should defiantly catch your interest. The environment of Fortune City looks huge, and certainly looks to be more varied than the mall in the original Dead Rising. Interestingly it looks like save points are here again, but they look relatively well spread out. There are also...
