Three More Grand Theft Auto V Screenshots

Rockstar's drip-feed approach continues with three more Grand Theft Auto V screenshots. One can but assume this is all leading somewhere awesome. I hope so, anyway. Today, we have people on motorbikes, people playing tennis, and some guy paragliding his way through a ravine. These images are starting to resemble a lifestyle magazine more than imagery pertaining to a gritty crime thriller. Still, it all looks rather pretty. (Jim Sterling)

Review: Transformers: Fall of Cybertron

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron has a lot of what made the original game so great, but it suffers from generation loss, relinquishing a portion of its quality in the cloning process. The decision to give players more of the same is made less palatable by the fact that its story is nowhere near as engaging and the multiplayer has not expanded in any way -- and even been scaled back in the case of Escalation. If you choose to play it, you will certainly have a lot of fun. However, you will miss practically nothing by choosing to skip this installment. (Jim Sterling)
