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.

These days, it seems like everyone is trying to breathe new life into the zombie genre. Most developers are looking for the angle that nobody has done before, trying to make zombies terrifying all over again and forcing people to sneak around in the darkness lest they find their tender brains being chewed. What happened to all the fun we used to have with zombies, where we were the ones with all the power and they were just rotten targets, ripe for the shooting? Splatter brings it all back.

While many indie developers are attempting to make old genres relevant again, there are those that are trying to create new ones. One such dev is Lucas Pope, with his latest game, Papers, Please, being labeled as "A Dystopian Document Thriller". The word "Dodocument" will no doubt throw some people off, but after spending some time cross-referencing passports and work releases as an immigration inspector in the fictional country of Arstotzka, I can safely say that stamping papers can definitely be thrilling.

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.

Three things in this world are certain: death, taxes, and stealth missions in video games. Some games include stealth missions for variety or back-of-box feature lists, and others include them as an alternative to smash-and-grab gameplay. Few games really focus on covert gameplay as a primary mechanic, and that’s probably because making good stealth games are hard. Monaco: What’s Yours Is Mine from Pocketwatch Games proves that stealth doesn’t have to be a trudging experience for players.

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.
