Platinum Games is actively discussing where to take the Bayonetta series next.
In an interview with SourceGaming at BitSummit, Platinum producer Atsushi Inaba fielded a question regarding whether the team would still use Bayonetta as the protagonist or introduce someone new in a bid to surprise fans and keep the series fresh.
“I would like to make Bayonetta 3. We’re talking within the company even now about what to do,” says Inaba. “But because we’re constantly talking about it, that actually makes it really hard to say.
“Of course, that’s just something that you talk about when you’re making a series – do you want to keep the same protagonist? There’s plenty of precedent for changing protagonists, and so that is something we discuss – do we want to keep the same one, have a different one, add new ones…”

Microsoft has finally released its Game Pass service for Xbox Live Gold Members, allowing users to partake in a 14 day free trial that grants you instant access to over 100 Xbox 360 and Xbox One games.
To save you some time, we dug through the list and highlighted the 7 games you definitely shouldn’t pass up.
Gears 3 might be the best all-around Gears of War game. It had a great story with real emotional moments, fantastic multiplayer, and a stellar Horde mode. And as a bonus, the entire Gears franchise minus last year’s 4 is already on Game Pass as well.

Far Cry 5 got a new trailer just seconds before we recorded this episode so we entered the studio giddy with thoughts of hillbilly jug-bands murders. Krupa also discusses the rollercoaster romp that is The Keepers, Joe's loving him a bit of Injustice 2 and Gav admits he was wrong about Master of None.
Plus, lots of drunken feedback, and the best listener-submitted Keyword Countdown EVER.

Microsoft's Xbox Live Gold for Xbox One and Xbox 360 is a continuation of the same service started nearly 15 years ago on the original Xbox. Sony wouldn't introduce its PlayStation Network until 4 years later, making Xbox Live the oldest of the continuously running console services. Between its online play and free monthly games, Gold is a hugely valuable service, and if you commit to a 12-month membership, there are always deals to be had. If you're still not on-board, even after all this time, here's why you need Xbox Live in your life.

Ah, adventure games — the only genre with more lives than the luckiest cat. In the ‘80s and early ‘90s, they were our passport to incredible worlds of humour and imagination. After a bit of a lull in the early 2000s, they’re now making waves again with hits like Telltale’s The Walking Dead and fantastic indies made by long-time fans. Best of all, the classics of the ‘90s can still be enjoyed today. Technology dates fast, but good stories and humour last forever.
But if you’ve never played an adventure game, getting started can be intimidating. With such a massive library of must-play classics, where should you start? Even if you already love the genre, there are bound to be a couple essentials you’ve missed — but which ones?

The NPD Group, known for releasing sales figures on software and hardware each month, also has a section of its release dedicated to the top games across all platforms for the year so far.
Ubisoft sits at the top of the 2017 sales so far with Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands and For Honor in second. Breath of the Wild is 2017's third-best selling game, without digital downloads factoring in to its place on the list.
Sitting firmly at spot number 7 is Grand Theft Auto V, which originally released for PS3 and Xbox 360 all the way back in September 2013. At Take-Two's investor call back in February, the company revealed it had sold-in 75 million copies of GTA 5 over the game's lifespan.
The NPD Group released its results for the top selling video game hardware and software for the month of April. Persona 5 had a strong showing, coming in second place.
We already knew Nintendo Switch was April's best-selling console, with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe coming in at the top of software sales. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was able to take the top spot in spite of having only been available just 2 days of April.
In third place was The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, which last month had sales numbers that exceeded the total number of Switch consoles sold.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 will release September 12 in North America and September 14 in Europe.
Konami says PES 2018 will see more new additions to the franchise than there's been in a decade. Improvements noted by the company include PC enhancements for console parity, a fresh user interface with a broadcast feel, and adjusted control systems — like strategic dribbling — for more fluidity.
The visuals also are getting a new can of paint, particularly with the animation and lighting systems. Konami is expanding the online portions of PES 2018 too, offering full 11-vs.-11 matches as well as co-operative 2-vs.-2 and 3-vs.-3 modes.
Speaking of online, Konami is keeping its eye on the eSports ball, saying PES 2018 will have PES League "fully integrated into the main game."

Injustice 2 is due for release this Friday and we're sure a few of you are raring to play it after it obtained a whooping 9/10 in our review. If that has you convinced, then take a look at the best places to pre-order it:
Currently the cheapest place to pre-order your copy of Injustice 2 is with Base.com who will chuck in Darkseid DLC along with a standard edition of the game for £35.85. When you compare that to Amazon's price of £41.99 (£39.99 for Amazon Prime members) which has no DLC included, we'd say Base's offer is quite attractive.
No matter the medium, most stories are only as good as their villains. Whether its an intergalactic entity bent on obliterating existence, or an ornery teacher with a penchant for punishment, a great antagonist is there to constantly provide friction between our heroes and their ultimate goals. But the best villains carry a sort of gravity to them that makes it impossible for us to look away.
Here are 11 of the villains we love hating the most.
BioShock is one of the defining games of the past decade, and Andrew Ryan’s incredible presence is no small part of that. The founder of his “paradise” known as Rapture, Ryan’s voice in the player’s ear acts as the carrot on the stick that propels each and every action you take. His selfish actions ultimately led to the downfall of the city, and the brutal demise of all of its citizens. But Ryan’s lasting legacy comes in the revelations during the final moments of his life. When both Jack, the character you control, as well as the players themselves come to the realization that we’re all just pawns in a much larger scheme, the phrases “Would you kindly?” and “A man chooses, a slave obeys,” became forever etched in video game history. -- Marty Sliva

Square Enix has declared its decision to withdraw from Danish developer Io Interactive. The company made the announcement alongside its financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 – released today.
“To maximize player satisfaction as well as market potential going forward, we are focusing our resources and energies on key franchises and studios,” Square Enix said in its statement. “As a result, the Company has regrettably decided to withdraw from the business of Io Interactive, a wholly‐owned subsidiary and a Danish corporation, as of March 31, 2017.”
Io Interactive – the developer of Hitman and Kane & Lynch – found itself in the Square Enix stable back in 2009 when the Japanese publisher acquired Io’s parent company, Eidos Interactive.
Anyone trying to fit multiple gaming consoles or other electronics under their TV without making a huge mess knows how important it is to get a high-quality gaming TV stand. A simple two-tier TV stand is fine if you're just rocking a single cable box, but things can get crowded fast. Not only does it look bad when two or more electronic devices are stacked on top of each other, it can be dangerous since the devices tend to throw heat on each other – does the Red Ring of Death ring a bell? So don't scoff - whether you're in a dorm or other small space, or looking for something sturdy to rest your massive 65 inch TV, it's important to look around for the best TV stand. You and your electronics deserve better, so we've put together a list of some of the best TV stands and entertainment centers out there that can help alleviate clutter, streamline your living space, and help your gaming HQ look more a little more professional.

It appears the next Assassin's Creed will likely take place in a long-rumored Egyptian setting, thanks to a leaked screenshot that has reportedly been confirmed as legitimate by non-Ubisoft sources.
We've reached out to Ubisoft for concrete confirmation on the legitimacy of the Assassin's Creed Egypt screenshot leak, but judging from the level of detail in the image, the aesthetic, and the flavor text that points to historically Egyptian characters, it seems a little more than possible that this is the real deal. If that's the case, this marks at least the 12th (!) leak in the long, porous history of the Assassin's Creed franchise. In fact, the only core entry in the series to date not to have been leaked in some fashion is Assassin's Creed 2.

After creating the Guitar Hero franchise and subsequently leaving it behind when parting ways with Activision, Harmonix found itself in an "emotionally complicated" position when it launched Rock Band as a competitor.
On the latest episode of our monthly interview show IGN Unfiltered, we asked Harmonix co-founder Alex Rigopulos how he felt about the incredible success Activision enjoyed with Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock in light of the fact that it was built off the foundation Harmonix worked so hard to establish before leaving the franchise.
"I wouldn't say we were angry about it," he replied. "It was emotionally complicated because we were attached to the Guitar Hero brand. We had poured our hearts and souls into crafting that brand identity and we loved it."

This week we're mainly talking about the hilarious new movie starring Julian Barratt, Mindhorn, and why you should be going to see it this weekend.
