Perhaps the world's most followed developer Robert Bowling (known to Twitter users as fourzerotwo) has just announced that a small title by the name of Modern Warfare two has reached the two million player milestone, presumably across all formats. In addition, it appears we're to expect an announcement on Downloadable Content for everyone's favourite insanely scripted war title some time later on this week. We're on tenterhooks. Not literally, like - we'd be in agony…

"Bodycount rips apart the first person shooter as genre-defining gunplay comes alive in a balletic orgy of bullets and destruction" Once again, the team behind the last-gen visceral shooter 'Black' are back on the FPS-wagon with their new title: Bodycount. Codemasters Studios, headed up by Black co-designer Stuart Black, is helping Bodycount look like a spiritual successor far more than anything else and is promising all the same press release bullet points as Black did all those years ago. Crazy action ...

Evening, all! Word has been sent through the great Xbox 360 grapevine that Slick Entertainment's racer Scrap Metal will touch down this week for a mere 1200 Microsoft Points. Well, mere by modern standards, anyway. The game itself is somewhat of an odd mix between Twisted Metal and, say, Micro Machines, challenging players to compete in armed vehcles for the title of top racer. A prestigious one indeed, that.

It's out there, but what is Epic planning... The likely hood that Gears Of War 3 is in the works with a possible release date of fall 2010, is just one of those things. We all know it's probably coming, but Epic are keeping tight lipped (annoyingly). That said, Gears is a formulaic type of game and one we think we can probably second guess, so here we go, here's the top three things we think we'll see from Gears 3... 1. Flashbacks ...

Who needs a PC when Crytek can get Crysis 2 running on your 360! Obviously, these screens won't literally blow you away, that would be stupid, but they do look mighty impressive. The much anticipated Crysis 2, now for consoles, is finally starting to look like it might, just possibly, actually be able to work on the clearly inferior 360 technology. Not that were dismissing our beloved Xbox or anything, but compared to the ridiculous PC rigs required to run the original ...

No, he's nothing like the Master Chief... The  first batch of screenshots of Platinum Game's promising looking sci-fi third person shooter have begun to emerge and it's looking as curious as ever. With it's transforming suit and at war super powers (Russia and America, again!) fighting other resources it could be argued that it's lacking in the originality departments. But, there's just something about these shots that says stomping around in this suit is going to be awesome fun....

Good bye Tomb Raider and hello Lara Croft... again Square Enix came out today and announced that Crystal Dynamics, long running saviours of the Tomb Raider games, is working on a new title. The 'hinting at a reboot' Lara Croft And The Guardian Of Light is going to be interesting for a few reasons.

The curse of the movie licence... wwhhooo, spooky Let's face it, movie licenced games tend to suck. There may have been a time when we all looked forward to the latest Spider-man game, but now, who are we kidding, now we generally couldn't care less.

Recently, I chatted to Capcom's Shinsaku Ohara and Blue Castle Games' Rob Barrett about the upcoming sequel Dead Rising 2. We got onto the subject of Japanese publishers working with Western developers, and the often damp results of such relationships – Dead Rising 2 won't struggle in the same way, apparently. Here's why.

I ain't scared of no... Necromorphs? Dead Space 2 may be a long way off but the original left us so traumatised we're getting ourselves ready for the inevitable horror onslaught now. The first Dead Space managed to blend lots of sci-fi staple cliche's and terror into a unique and horrible experience, but according to Ian Milham, Art Director on Dead Space 2, the sequel is moving away from the more obvious inspirations... "Although ...
