There's two big talking points today. First up there's the news that Halo 5: Guardians is coming in fall 2015, which is plenty more than we knew yesterday, even if we still don't know all that much.

Last night it was confirmed that The Division was slipping into 2015, and today we got word from our inside source that even that's optimistic, but that Massive don't want to "do a Battlefield 4" and release their open-world shooter before it's ready.

We talked with Dlala studios about Overruled!, the 2D arena brawler where the rules are constantly changing. We talked about taking the game online, and what platforms the game will be appearing on.

It turns out that Jack and Sarah are the most popular names picked for Shepard in Mass Effect. Watch Dogs broke the record for pre-orders for a new IP. PS4 has beaten Xbox One for a fourth consecutive month in terms of American sales.

Ground Forces has left beta in War Thunder. Four player co-op is heading to Killzone: Shadow Fall next month. It's been confirmed that there'll be two Assassin's Creed games launching this fall. Heavy Bullets has landed on Steam Early Access. While Kill The Bad Guy got a release date.

Finally, we've got a movie review for you today, as we give you the lowdown on Godzilla.
