Breaking news: Halo 3 is out right now! You already knew that? Well then here, check out this quick Digital Short we made poking fun at Master Chief, Microsoft's unstoppable hype-o-matic machine and the perils of senility. Watch as a man of questionable age looks back on his time as a Space Marine as he questions everything you thought you knew about The Great Covenant War I. (Not the official title.)

There are some things that developers and publishers just don't want you to know. And given the unnaturally high number of game announcements, hardware revelations, industry shake-ups, and all round cool things going on this year, they've wanted you to not know a lot during 2007. Thankfully though, the internet exists, and thus nothing is sacred.
That's the eternal irony of the games industry. It's a business which tries to shroud itself in secrecy, but whose patrons congregate
It's the end of another great year for gamers. Two new systems launched. Two handhelds waged bloody battle. And next gen gaming got a big kick in the pants - thanks to a year of lonely rule by the Xbox 360. PC gaming fought fire with nukes, waging its battle against the console-based onslaught. In short, it ruled.
How do we handle this? We're handing out our gleaming Platinum Chalice to those games and systems which gave us the business. No boring list of 37 different strategy games, divided

You may remember that we ran a series of videos over E3 where the GamesRadar UK team sat around a table and discussed the biggest news events of the previous day. The format was simple - five topics, with one minute each to discuss them. It had a bell and everything. Well, by popular demand, these videos (and the bell) are returning every Monday to get you up to speed for the week! So, to kick us off, today's topics are: Cliffy B says everyone will buy a Wii U, Sega to release limited edition £154.99 Metal Sonic statues in UK, Sony has a surprise coming this Friday, Marvel vs Capcom 3 has a potential announcement at ComicCon and Iwata wants more adult-oriented Wii U games.
