Red Dead Redemption was one of the best games of the last generation, but one thing was missing.

Bioshock Remade in Unreal 4 Looks Awesome
Bioshock was quite a nice looking game when it was first released, but it hasn't aged well on consoles.

First Image of Call of Duty 2014 Released

Hundreds of websites and servers are to be affected after the discovery of a web-breaking bug that makes an estimated two-thirds of all servers accessible to hackers.
