If you're from Australia and were planning of having a friend gift you a copy of Saints Row IV so that you might play without any censorship, you may find that you'll be disappointed come release day. A rumour is circulating that if you live in a country where your alien-battling super hero adventure has been made a little less violent, that's the version of the game you'll play regardless of how it was bought.

Activision and Infinity Ward have released a video displaying some of the new additions to Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer. Along with the continued smooth, fun gameplay that keeps the Call of Duty franchise a must-buy year after year, Ghosts multiplayer brings with it new game modes, new weaponry and, most importantly, female characters.

How would you feel about picking up more or less every single major EA game from the last seven years for next to nothing? Well, today is the day. The latest Humble Bundle is all about EA and includes everything from Dead Space 3 to Mirror's Edge. That's if you pay a dollar. Aim a little higher and you'll get The Sims 3 and a couple of expansions, plus Battlefield 3.

Not a great week for releases but a week which brings much variety and contrast. two Disney games, two horror games, a couple HD remakes and of course Payday 2 are just some of what you will find coming out in the next 7 days.

Deep Silver have announced Dead Island: Epidemic, a Zombie-based MOBA set in the Dead Island universe. Although little has been announced about this new entry in the franchise (there hasn't even been any screenshots), more details have been promised at Gamescom from the 21st of this month, so watch out for that.

Guacamelee! Gold Edition has today been released to the Steam platform. The Mexican-inspired platformer went down a treat on the PlayStation Network, getting pretty amazing reviews wherever it was covered. It's nice to see that it's going to be able to reach a whole new audience on PC.

Rebellion have today announced that they'll be making a brand new entry in the Evil Genius franchise. I say franchise, although I'm not sure that''s really an accurate description for one very, very strong strategy/world domination sim that is vastly underrated and constantly cheap.

Members of the DotA 2 subreddit were treated to a tour of Valve recently, and something tells me that the House that Half-Life Built may just regret letting them take picture. One picture, which shows a Valve Changelog, reveals quite clearly that the company are working on Left 4 Dead 3, and that it will run in the Source 2 engine.

The Australian Classification Board may have eventually approved Saints Row IV for release in the country but at the cost of multiplayer co-op with gamers outside Australia. An apologetic post on the Official Saints Row Facebook page (which has since been deleted) mentions a couple things on how the Australian version differs from any other version of the game. A single mission has been cut to meet the strict AU Classification criteria, but that’s not all. Gamers down under will…

There's been something of a mini-controversy on Steam this last weekend. Fallout 3 has been on sale and it seems to have sold so many copies that Steam actually ran out of keys so that people could actually play their game. As of writing it still seems people are getting error messages and are unable to access their new purchase. Of course, Fallout 3 is still available to buy.
