We've had a busy day here at Gamereactor. We've been tracking down all sorts of interesting leads, looking for the biggest stories of the day. Here's what we learned:
GAME has announced a 15% drop in sales over the Christmas period. There could be difficult times ahead for the popular retailer.
Bethesda has come out on top after a settlement was reached with Interplay in their dispute over the rights to the Fallout MMO. It now seems as if the ill-fated project will never see the light of day.
Both Sony and Microsoft have today revealed impressive sales for the end of 2011.
After buying up the domain rights for Black Ops 2, Activision has sparked rumours of a sequel to Call of Duty: Black Ops; 2011's most played Xbox Live game.
There are further hints toward a possible console port of Diablo III.
Monumental Games has officially gone into administration.
XPEC Entertainment has teamed up with SEE Games, with collaborative focus to be on developing games that tie-in with Hollywood IPs.
Publisher ProsiebenSat.1 has signed up Sony Online Entertainment and the licenses to 8 of their games (including the MMOFPS Planetside 2).
Ubisoft has announced the future release of Assassin's Creed: Revelations DLC. They also announced that Ghost Recon Future Soldier is to be delayed.
And EA has announced Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13. Whilst that in itself isn't a surprise, full Kinect integration has developers promising the: "most comprehensive swing mechanic revamp in over a decade". Interesting.
That lot should keep you busy for a while.
