It wasn't a great 2011 for the giant entertainment company.

Could there be a link between gamers and higher levels of anxiety and stress? A recent Australian study seems to think so. But what kind of link?

How utterly depraved and disgusting! Is this what children do when they run out of things to do these days? Force their poor controllers into immoral acts of pure lust?

If you’ve got someone special to buy a gift for, why not give them the gift of a government controlled spy bot? Pump propaganda at the ones you love with their very own miniature Eyebot.

There is not a single doubt in my mind that the South Park RPG is going to be amazing, and these new screenshots that have just dropped aren’t causing me to falter.

I hope you haven’t fallen prey to the mass Diablo III hysteria that seems to be rampant right now, because Blizzard has bad news for you.

I’m not someone who knows a whole lot about art, so it’s pretty rare for me to get an art reference. Pieta Game Over, however, is an exception.

It’s been a long battle for one Xbox Live user, but they’ve finally got a refund and had their account restored - so does Live have a hacking problem, or just a customer service one?

The Humble Indie Bundle is a great idea, not only for charity, but also for indie devs. Could a Humble Store be on the way? Probably.

I bet you’ve at one point said to yourself ‘wow, Bioshock is so cool! I love Rapture! I wish I could create a smaller version of Rapture that my pet hamsters could live in.’ ...No? Oh, well, this one guy did.

If Miyamoto is the father of gaming and Kojima is the crazy uncle, Gabe Newell is the cool uncle who’ll let you have a few beers when you stay at his place - just don’t tell your mother. He’s also the uncle who delivers some great gems of wisdom, such as “the internet is way smarter than any of us.”

You can now listen to the remastered soundtracks of Fallout 1 and 2 thanks to the game's composer.

These pixelart demakes of games like Halo and Bayonetta will make you wish they were real.

There's a good chance we'll be playing Diablo III this time next month.

Elemental: Fallen Enchantress promises the same turn-based fantasy action, minus the bugs and glaring design flaws.

Things just keep looking better and better for Valve, with Valve reporting that Steam has seen a 100 percent sale increase for the seventh year in a row.

Fallout fans, break out a bottle of purified water and rejoice, it looks like Bethesda and Interplay have come to an agreement. Finally.

Atari is coming after iPhone apps with even a ‘passing resemblance’ to their retro titles. Oh, it’s on. It’s on like Donkey Kong. Except not, because Donkey Kong is a Nintendo title and that phrase is also copyrighted. Shut up.

I can get pretty passionate about my video game characters. If Bioware decided that they were turning Garrus into a pretty emo boy, I’d be near inconsolable. I don’t know if I’d go the whole nine yards and send the developer death threats like some Devil May Cry fans have, though.

The Game Developer’s Choice Awards is to the VGAs what the Oscars is to the MTV Movie awards, so when you’re nominated it actually is a pretty big deal. The nominees for the 2012 awards have been announced, and you’ll be quite pleased at who’s in the race.

The smash hit game shows some impressive numbers.
