Up for some wheelie good competition?.

CEO Alex Rigopolus says both series "are near and dear to our hearts and our minds".
The music game genre has had a tough time as of late, but if you've been pining for the days of rocking out with your friends and lamenting the lack of Xbox One music titles, there may still be hope thanks to encouraging words this weekend from the studio behind the Rock Band and Dance Central series.
EA felt Bluepoint's port "simply did not represent the true Titanfall experience".
After weeks of hiding under cover while the Xbox One version shone, the Xbox 360 version of Titanfall finally released yesterday to an excellent reception. However, if you are planning to jump into your Titan on the older consoles it seems that you'll have to settle for the retail version, as EA has announced it has no plans to bring the shooter to Games on Demand.
Reportedly "playable this year" & exclusive to Xbox One.
The Behemoth has a decent pedigree on Xbox Live Arcade, with Alien Hominid, Castle Crashers and - most recently - Battleblock Theater all being examples of genuinely funny games with a distinctive bizarre style. Now it appears a sliver of information about the developer's next project has come to light, and it appears no less weird.
Bungie leaves plenty of room for crowds.
Big, meet bigger. Bungie software engineer Christian Diefenbach has revealed that each major location in the forthcoming Destiny is "more or less the same size" as an entire game - Halo Reach, to be specific.
Another fiendish puzzler from the makers of Max and the Curse of Brotherhood.
Microsoft has unveiled Totem, a 2D platform puzzler for Xbox One that's down for release this October, created by Max developer Press Play. The game puts you in charge of two characters at once, each of whom responds to the same button inputs, and asks you to collect the scattered pieces of totem poles shattered by an evil shaman.
Long-running card battler to skip other platforms this year.
Well here's a bit of a shocker: the latest instalment of Magic 2015 - Duels of the Planeswalkers appears to be an Xbox console exclusive. Not quite Halo, no, but appreciated all the same. I wonder if it will use Kinect?
Should compare to the functionality in Mass Effect 3.
Remember last year, when BioWare told us that it wasn't sure Kinect functionality belonged in Dragon Age: Inquisition? That's no longer the case, it seems.
Titans aren't the only things that are falling.
Not bought an Xbox One yet? ASDA has it on sale for #163;349.99 with a copy of Titanfall thrown in - a full #163;50 off the bundle's official price.
"Who will build the next Halo?".
With just a few months to go before computing becomes a part of the UK curriculum, Microsoft has been visiting schools around the country to see how it can inspire the next generation of developers to take up a career in coding.
Will be announced this weekend.
Did you hear that? That sinister chittering noise, way off in the darkness? That's the sound of a new game from Firaxis, developer of the XCOM: Enemy Unknown reboot and the Civilization series. I guess it's time to put everybody into Overwatch.
Long Beach Booster Pack also includes five new cars for season pass holders.
Turn 10 has added the famous Long Beach circuit to its Xbox One racer for free, and it's available right now. Plus, if you bought the year-long car pass get ready to strap yourself into five brand-new machines.
Also tweaks the "Gooser" challenge.
Respawn will roll out another update for Titanfall on Xbox One later today, the developer has announced via Twitter. Among other things, it'll tweak the game's Gooser Challenge, which originally required players to kill 50 ejecting pilots - post-update, you'll only need to slay five.

Airmech Arena, a free-to-play RTS game that includes single-player, multiplayer cooperative and multiplayer competitive gameplay for teams of two to three players, will be available for download on Xbox 360 from "this summer."
Nine characters in total to ship on the disc.
BioWare won't release any DLC characters for Dragon Age: Inquisition, creative director Mike Laidlaw has told OXM. Why? Because this would require the developer to ship some of the "DLC" on the disc.
Now you can spawn Mooshrooms in peace.
Minecraft updates have bugs in much the same way that Strongholds are home to Silverfish - filthy, geography-defiling vermin, lurking within blocks to infest your nightmares with their bites and scuttling noises. Back, you icky tunnelling demons! Back to the algorithmically generated hell from whence you came!
"To be honest, we just polished the game.".
Watch Dogs could have been Xbox One's best-rated launch game, according to Ubisoft North America president Laurent Detoc, but it'll be even better for hitting shelves this May. So how exactly has Ubisoft Montreal used all those additional months in development? What improvements can we expect over the impressive-seeming effort originally slated for November?
Access bonus RP, bigger payouts and more.
It pains me to admit I haven't visited Los Santos as often as I'd have liked to recently. I know, I know - those innocent pedestrians aren't going to terrorise themselves. But, if anything is going to persuade me to head back into town to cause a ruckus, it's the brand new new title update arriving today.
Third studio added to help create artwork for the game's weapons.
Ubisoft's beautiful-looking, post-apocalyptic MMO title The Division now has a third team working on it. Red Storm joins Ubisoft Massive and Reflections, and are charged with creating a potent arsenal of weapons for the game.
Out autumn 2014, is indeed set on the Moon.
2K Games has confirmed the existence of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, a spin-off that takes place between the events of Borderlands and Borderlands 2. It runs on the same engine as the second game, and appears to offer the same mix of looting and shooting, with four new characters, new weapon types and some mildly unhinged "terrain features" to round out the package.
