Anyone would be happy to get this in their Christmas stocking (Nintendo) If you’re yet to grab a Switch 2, or are looking into it as a Christmas gift, Nintendo’s newest bundle may be its best offer yet. Even with Nintendo raising the price of the Switch 2 console from £359.99 to £419.99 at the beginning of September, it’s still a more affordable option than either the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, which at their cheapest go for £519.99 and £619.99, respectively.

Tiffany’s back! (Picture: Shutterstock) This series of Big Brother UK has seen plenty of drama this year on ITV already, but the latest addition to the house has led to even further escalation.

In scenes screened on October 28, Tiffany was quickly in the eye of the storm after seemingly saying something that insulted Philip, which led to Rochelle also getting involved. Fans a

Not an apocalyptic comeback (Xbox Game Studios) Xbox console sales continue to plummet despite the exclusive launch of Gears Of War: E-Day, as games are pulled from the platform in protest.  Earlier this year, Xbox pivoted from its multiplatform strategy to prioritising exclusive games – albeit with a lot of confusing caveats.  The two titles leading this bold new frontier are Gears Of War: E-Day and Clockwork Revolution, while other Xbox games like Fable and Forza Horizon 6 are s

Delayed virtue (Nintendo) Elden Ring creator FromSoftware has delayed The Duskbloods until next year, adding to a pretty stacked Switch 2 line-up for next year.  The Duskbloods may have been announced as a 2026 release but considering we’ve heard nothing about it since the network test in August, a delay has seemed likely for a while.

One Piece: Grand Gourmet – what an odd idea for a tie-in (Bandai Namco) The latest One Piece game has some charming retro graphics and a very odd premise, as you take control of a floating restaurant run by the Straw Hat pirates. As far as mash-ups go, One Piece and restaurant ownership isn’t the craziest idea. After all, Luffy and eating food go together like, erm, steak and chips. The series’ main character is a famous glutton, packing away dish after dish of meat (specifically meat)
