Continuing the trend of "every video game must have a collector's edition", Square Enix has announced a special package to go alongside the release of next year's Deus Ex: Human Revolution

The beefed up package includes the game, a behind-the-scenes DVD, a motion graphic novel and a 40-page comic ma-jig. Square's also announced pre-order bonuses including a bonus mission and special shot-gun for..

The PlayStation Portable's Parasite Eve spin-off, The 3rd Birthday, is finished according to the Final Fantasy Agito XIII's director, Hajime Tabata

The lead's revealed that the entirety of The 3rd Birthday team has turned their attention to Agito, presumably seeking a launch at some point during our life time (or perhaps before the PSP2). Siliconera's revealed via Tabata's Twitter account that the..

Are you still playing Lara Croft and the Guardian Of Light? It's actually a really good game, but with the release of Call Of Duty: Black Ops, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and the imminent arrival of Gran Turismo 5, chances are you've relegated Lara Croft's tight tushy to the side-lines

That's a shame, because Crystal Dynamics has finally released the patch that makes Lara Croft's co-operative..

Square Enix has confirmed a January release date for Feelplus' third-person shooter, Mindjack

The game's due in North America/Europe on the 18th/21st of January. Japan will get it a little later on the 27th January. Honestly, we know very little about this game, so let's read the press-release together shall we? "Square Enix’s new near-future Third Person Action-Shooter offers a unique..

Square Enix has dropped us a new trailer for next year's Deus Ex: Human Revolution

It seriously looks really, really good, demonstrating a bunch of new abilities and augmentations that the protagonist will use throughout the main campaign.

"A survivor is born

" It's not much to go on, but the phrase and artwork teased in the latest issue of GameInformer are sending Tomb Raider fans bonkers. The image, which shows a ship wreck, is thought to be connected to the leaked Tomb Raider plot which saw Lara crashed onto a "mysterious and remote island hidden off the shores of Japan." The new game's widely believed to be a..

Square Enix -- who are bizarrely handling publishing duties on Call Of Duty: Black Ops in Japan -- have confirmed that certain elements of the localized first-person shooter will be cut in order for the title to see release

This includes Nazi references, as well as a particularly brutal interrogation scene. The game's due worldwide next week. Get hype.

For as much dancing around the issue as Square Enix did, the original Parasite Eve games were always going to come to the PlayStation Network

Now there's a date placed on the re-releases. The first game in the franchise will hit the Japanese PlayStation Store on November 4th, with the sequel following on November 18th. Both will land plenty of time ahead of the December 22nd launch of The 3rd..

It's been on the cards for a long time

IO might have tried their hand at some different titles - notably Kane & Lynch, though who could forget the surprisingly good Mini Ninjas? - but a new Hitman's always been on the cards. It sounds like Agent 47's voice actor, David Bateson, might finally have spilled the beans. Speaking in an interview with TheGamingLiberty, Bateson mentioned the fifth game..

So you're telling us just after we bid upwards of £10 for a retail copy of Parasite Eve II, the franchise is set to head to the PlayStation Network (presumably at half the price)

Brilliant. We should have known, there's been mumblings about bringing the classic PlayStation horror franchise to the PS3's Store for some time now; but it looked like Square Enix were dallying. Apparently not though -..

Square Enix has pledged a Q1, 2011 release for The 3rd Birthday in the West

Bloody nora. Still — TIFA! We love Tifa. One of the most famous characters in video games is coming to the stellar Dissidia..

Heaven forbid Square Enix should want programmers with experience of next-generation platforms to work on Final Fantasy Versus XIII

According to the Internet, Square's job listing - which specifies “development experience on a PS3, or XBOX 360 package title" - means the once exclusive PlayStation 3 title must be going multiplatform. Of course right? Because they should only be employing folks..

Square Enix has been in a tussle with YouTube all day trying to pull these Fabula Nova Crystallis trailers that debuted at TGS last month

For some reason they don't want people to see their awesome looking games. Whatever, we've found a YouTube link that works. If it gets pulled down, you'll know why. So let's talk: both Final Fantasy Agito XIII and Final Fantasy Versus XIII look amazing. The..

Square Enix has posted a sub-titled DISSIDIA 012 [duodecim]: FINAL FANTASY (urgh

) trailer up to the European PlayStation Blog. It features Tifa from Final Fantasy VII. We love Tifa. This is all.

While Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Final Fantasy Agito XIII are actively in development, Square Enix has dropped some hints that there could be more titles in the "Fabula Nova Crystallis" universe on the way

In an interview in Final Fantasy XIII's Ultimania Omega guide, produced Yoshinori Kitase declared his interest in continuing the FFXIII story. "I'd like to at some point make a story..

We are not massive Parasite Eve fans

We are not massive PSP shooter fans. But something about Square Enix's The 3rd Birthday has always held our attention. That's why we were pretty disappointed when Square decided not to release the game's Tokyo Game Show trailer. Why wouldn't they? Silly. Whatever. It's up now. And as you can see, the game looks rather good. The shooting looks similar to a Syphon..
