Activision has released the first gameplay trailer for 007 Legends by attaching it to the end of the new trailer for Skyfall. Very clever. For those of you who are unaware, Legends features missions based on six classic Bond films. Rather than follow the same plots, the game will have an all-new storyline with an extended narrative in order to them together. Think a 'best of James Bond' if you're feeling lazy. The trailer reveals Roger Moore's classic Moonraker as the first mission

 

If you can't be bothered to watch the whole trailer then skip to 1.20 for the gameplay footage. Enjoy!

Sega has confirmed many of their classic titles will be made available for for PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade. However, some PS3 owners may be disappointed to learn they will only receive six games. On the other hand, XBLA will see a total of four retro bundles grouped by series and sold for 800 MS Points per pack. The collections will be ready for download as of tomorrow.

Usually I'd acknowledge the website I obtained this information from but there are too many, all of the above is correct and quite frankly it would be playing slight favouritism

Hopefully, Lisa didn't mind pressing X to Jason for that long.

Far Cry 3 is scheduled to release on PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 this September. 

I can't really say anything about it that you don't already know. It's set in present day, as per the 'Modern Warfare standard', and features a number of special forces good guys shooting (presumably) terrorist bad guys.

Confirmed for release on PC, Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii U this October.

Keep in mind that, being a human being, I'm prone to failure (more often than others, to be exact). The games listed here might have their release dates changed, and some games that are scheduled to release during this period might not even be on the list. If you're miffed by me overlooking some date, feel free to shoot me an e-mail or comment below and I'll fix it as soon as possible.
