Titanfall Announced for Xbox One
Respawn Entertainment, a company made up of much of the team that left Infinity Ward after the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, officially unveiled the long-awaited Titanfall this evening and the Microsoft 2013 E3 conference. It was much as any fan of Call of Duty might expect - silky smooth multiplayer action with a few clever ideas to really capture the player, keeping them coming back time and time again. There were also mechs. A lot of mechs.

It sold 250,000 units in only two days and has continued to sell, hitting that sweet spot between zombie adventure and player-controller narrative that perhaps games like DayZ and The Walking Dead so often just miss. There's no doubt that it's paid off anyway, and that State of Decay will continue to be a must-play title over the coming weeks and months.

Have the previous entries in the Saints Row series been a little light in the drama department? Is jumping through the window of a plane not enough, do you need a string orchestra and slow motion to really feel moment? That's not going to be a problem with Saints Row IV, at least if this E3 trailer is anything to go by. With a cast of larger-than-life characters and a plot that's almost literally out of this world, Saints Row IV is going to be something new all over again.

Ubisoft jokes about the Always-On Kinect
While not directly mentioning Xbox One's Kinect, the angle at which the picture was taken -under the tv, pointed at the sofa, same height as the coffee table- does look like the view you would see from a Kinect camera.
