Nine more years.

Following on from yesterday's unsurprising news that EA's FIFA 14 will more than likely be making the jump to Xbox 720, the company have announced that they've tied up that FIFA licence for just a little bit longer.

Available for 800MSP, the game that made our Five XBLA Titles to Watch Out For list just a few short weeks ago, didn't appear to be scheduled for release for another few weeks, but has been brought forward.

If wishes were fishes...

With the announcement this week that Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection isn’t coming to the Xbox 360, we started thinking about titles that we wished had made the jump to Microsoft’s platform. We came up with a list as long as your arm, that spanned several consoles but in the end, the Xbox 360’s natural closest...

MGS4 holds it back.

Legendary game designer Hideo Kojima has gone on record as saying that the upcoming PS3 pack Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection will most definitely not be making its way to the Xbox 360.

We're utterly amazed.

It must have been a quiet week over in Japan in terms of new game releases, as not one, not two, but THREE Xbox 360 titles have entered the Media Create Top 20 All Formats Chart. This isn't just a rarity - it's madness, we tell you. Madness! Capcom's Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is sitting at a lofty 13th position, after...

Shot down.

Our good chums over at Nintendo Life have dug up a bit of tasty information via NeoGAF, that suggests that a new Sonic the Hedgehog title is in development at Sega (as you'd expect), but that itwill be heading to Microsoft's next-generation Xbox, as well as the Xbox 360. The new game - allegedly entitled "Sonic Excursion" - is apparently...

Domain name registrations point towards it.

The bloodhounds over at domain-watchers Fusible have spotted something that could point toward the name of the next Xbox, which is due to revealed on May 21st.

It's about to get a little bit neon up in here.

We're heading into a single-game Wednesday once again but this time around, things are looking up. The neon-infused Far Cry 3 spin-off Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is the order of the day, and given that we already know very much how it'll play (as we've played Far Cry 3) - we reckon there's a lot of...

You'll have to wait until July

Microsoft's intriguing-looking Illumiroom technology will not be making an appearance at E3 this year, nor at their May 21st Xbox unveiling.

Ex-Call of Duty team forms up.

The intrepid folks at Kotaku are running a report today that claims that Respawn Entertainment - which features some of the folks that brought you the earlier Call of Duty titles, of course - are working on a brand new IP that will be exclusive to the Xbox 360, and Microsoft's next-generation console.
