Microsoft looking to sell Xbox One through Trade in promotion
Microsoft is looking to sell even more Xbox One systems after a very successful holiday season. Microsoft emailed customers with this offer which is currently available in North America at Microsoft Store locations. The email said, "Ditch your PS3 and get 100$ store credit towards Xbox One." Perhaps this is an attempt to avoid the inevitable post holiday drop in sales. There is a fair amount of fine print to this promotion, and it is not limited to PS3. Customers can also trade in an Xbox 360 S or Xbox 360 E. The promotion comes with a fair amount of fine prin

The Wolf Among Us: Episode 2 Trailer Released
It's been an awfully long time since the first episode of The Wolf Among Us was released, and that' s not good for episodic content. I don't remember which decisions I've made or who the main characters are, but I do remember two things: telling Bufkin to 'eff' off, and that final shocking twist in the closing moments of the game. Well, despite the gap, Telltale today released a new trailer for The Wolf Among Us: Episode 2, and that it'll be available to download next week.

Titanfall DLC Already In Development
Titanfall is still a few months away from launch, but that doesn't mean that development has finished on it. There's a beta incoming, and that'll probably result in a bit of tweaking, and what's the chance of a major shooter coming out without a day-one patch to follow? That's not all the Titanfall staff are working on though. EA, via an earnings call to investors, have revealed that DLC is already being worked on by Respawn.

Trailer Released for Bioshock Infinite’s Burial At Sea Part 2
There's a huge problem with episode gaming. It takes so damn long. It seems months ago that we were playing The Wolf Among Us, and even longer ago that we returned to Rapture with Burial At Sea. That's mostly because it was months ago, and so the return of Elizabeth via a brand new trailer is something to get very excited about.

Behind The Scenes Look At South Park: The Stick of Truth
The behind-the-scenes video for South Park: The Stick of Truth that was originally shown at Comic Con last year is now available to watch on YouTube. It's primarily an interview with Matt Stone and Trey Parker as they discuss the video game development process, but there's some good in-game footage for this much anticipated title. The game has been in the works for what seems like forever, but it will finally be released come March for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. It's an RPG that tries to capture the essence of the show, which means plenty of dong and fart jokes, and a visual style that looks as "crappy" (their words) as the hit cartoon.

Tomb Raider 2 to be more Skyrim
Tomb Raider was a great game, but it had very little in common with the massively open-world RPG The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It's not a problem most of us picked up on, but apparently it's something the developers hope to rectify for Tomb Raider 2.

Phil Spencer Signed the Kingdom Hearts 360 Petition
You just know behind-the-scenes conversations must be odd when a major part of a company like Microsoft signs an online petition to bring the Kingdom Hearts 1.5 REmix HD Collection to 360. That's exactly what's happened. Phil Spencer took to Twitter today, replying to someone who linked him the Kingdom Hearts 360 petition we covered a few days ago, confirming that he signed it.

Lightning Returns Demo Available Soon
Final Fantasy XIII wasn't everybody's cup of tea. Square Enix managed to fix the most common problems with Final Fantasy XIII-2, and there were still people that weren't satisfied with their purchase (or by the trailers they watched on YouTube, at least). Before you make the same mistake again with Lightning Returns, consider downloading the demo, available on Xbox 360 today and PlayStation 3 tomorrow.
