Square Enix have also now issued a statement via Twitter, saying: "If your Hitman pre-order is cancelled, don't panic. </div>

"Release date is still 11 March. We're adjusting a few things and will update in a few days."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As of yet it appears that the Xbox One and PC pre-orders have escaped untouched, which means that the cancellation is likely to have something to do with Square Enix's exclusive content for the PS4.</div>

It appears EA may have some big changes in mind for <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/star-wars-battlefront-major-update.html" target="_blank">Star Wars Battlefront</a> in the future.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are already plans afoot to make more content available in single-player mode and a new DLC is set to be announced by developers DICE very soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, when it comes to the future of the series and what fans on Xbox One, PS4 and PC, they may find their feedback has had a much bigger impact.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
EA have reportedly launched a major feedback drive for the game, with a new survey allegedly released asking fans key questions about the series on a range of topics.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The questionnaire appears to focus mainly on future titles, although it is unclear just what kind of impact the feedback would have on the upcoming DLC offerings set for release in 2016.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The survey reportedly covers a lot of different subjects, asking fans about their expectations for the Season Pass, the inclusion and importance of combat types, such as ground-to-space vehicle combat, as well as what Force Awakens content they were looking for.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other ideas touched upon in the survey included hero crossovers, alluding to the idea of Anakin Skywalker facing off against Han Solo, along with the importance of including material from the Clone Wars.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Call of Duty: <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/xbox-one-news-gta-5-dlc-update-reveal.html" target="_blank">Black Ops 3</a> continued its strong showing into 2016, spending the first week of the new year at No.1 in the UK sales chart.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Chart-Track reports that the titles that dominated early 2016 were pretty much the same as those during the holidays, due mainly to the fact there have been no new major releases since.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Games did shuffle in the list though, with the likes of FIFA 16 clawing its way back up to claim the no.2 spot, while some old titles made a big comeback.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Having been heavily reduced during the holidays, Battlefield 4 returned to the top ten, just behind Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate and Just Cause 3.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The top ten can be found below, although it doesn’t include any digital sales data.</div>

<a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/destiny-bungie-reveal-update-on.html" target="_blank">Destiny: Taken King</a> fans have been hit by a series of issues this week, affecting both the Weekly Nightfall Strike and collecting the new emblems earned by logging in between January 7 and January 10.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fans found themselves barred from continuing the Sunless Cell earlier this week due to a door not opening ahead of the Darkblade boss showdown.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was a big quest-breaking bug which has finally been fixed by Bungie.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The studio has also confirmed that the bug stopping those users who had earned the new Rising Sun emblem - from playing the game on the correct date - should also have been given their reward.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“We have resolved issues impacting distribution of the "Rising Light" New Year's Gift Emblem,” am official Bungie support message reads.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Qualifying players may need to re-launch the Destiny Application in order to acquire the Emblem.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There have been other problems plaguing the game of late, with the PvP Crucible hit by never-leaving corpses, health bars appearing not to deplete and epic lag that has allowed players to kill from beyond the grave.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These issues have apparently been solved, with Bungie adding: “A fix has been deployed to resolve some recent issues impacting Crucible gameplay.”</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Analyst Evan Wilson of Pacific Crest Securities, recently estimated that Battlefront has already sold as many as 13 million copies, the majority coming at a discount.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It would mean that the rebooted title is set to surpass the initial prediction laid down by EA back in 2015, where they had estimated reaching that sales point by March 31, 2016.</div>

Altissia has many and varied locations, such as multiple cafes, ship-bourne market places and parks etc. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“The city is of a considerable scale, to the extent that even the developers sometimes get lost there!" </div>

“You are bound to encounter some unique characters when exploring the city streets.”</div>

"By having this ability to switch modes, we want to make it so that both players who like action oriented, technical gameplay and also those who want to fight at a slower, more relaxed pace can all enjoy the combat in their own style. </div>

“This switching system is a key part of the gameplay that we decided to introduce based on the feedback we received from the Episode Duscae demo. </div>

“The ability to use multiple warp points in a strategic manner is especially prevalent in the game’s large scale battles over urban terrain. </div>

While various quirky areas have been explored in past content for games like Fallout 3, it appears the evidence of an underwater adventure is building up.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fallout 3 led the way in terms of thinking outside of the box, taking the Lone Wanderer into space, while also giving players the chance to go back in time through an military simulation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fans have already looked to tidbits of existing information to try and piece together if Bethesda are planning an adventure under the sea, taking note of a datamined Harpoon Gun and various concept images showing underwater exploration.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div><div class="p402_hide htmlappend"><section class="text-description"><div style="display:none"></div><script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="http://admin.brightcove.com/js/BrightcoveExperiences.js"></script><object class="BrightcoveExperience" id="myExperience4561284539001">  <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" />  <param name="width" value="648" />  <param name="height" value="365" />  <param name="playerID" value="4581640862001" />  <param name="playerKey" value="AQ~~,AAACT2hWexE~,QV-ElXQT89U_VDxSv3YHBd4nA3r5ipc3" />  <param name="isVid" value="true" />  <param name="isUI" value="true" />  <param name="dynamicStreaming" value="true" />    <param name="@videoPlayer" value="4561284539001" /></object><script type="text/javascript">brightcove.createExperiences();</script></section></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And now yet more evidence has been unearthed suggesting this could be a big DLC expansion for Fallout 4 fans.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
NPCs talking about certain underwater events appear to point the way to the potential opening of new underwater locations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One NPC can be heard talking about the Ghoul Whale, insisting that it is real, that it haunts the depths and is called Ol’ Peg.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hancock is also heard talking about what’s under water, speculating on how big other animals could have gotten based on the mutated Mirelurks found around the sea’s edge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Players have gone to great lengths searching the ocean’s depths by disabling the water in the game to have a good nosey around.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately nothing substantial has been found, while the reference to a giant whale could in fact be linked to another large object that can be found while swimming around in Boston Harbour, attached to the side quest, Here There Be Monsters.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, a big whale enemy and a Harpoon Gun, with epic concept art, does paint a pretty interesting picture for those hoping for a quirky <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/fallout-4-bethesdas-wasteland-plagued.html" target="_blank">Fallout DLC</a> offering.</div>

"The challenges that lie within will take planning, guile, and dedication to conquer," the Diablo post adds.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Naturally, you do not stand a chance and, regrettably, death will not claim you when you inevitably fail. Still, should you desire to overcome these challenges, your efforts will be well rewarded."</div>

PlayStation VR is due to hit UK shelves later this year – but Sony have continued to stay tight-lipped about a launch date or price.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But an Amazon post might have just revealed all the details on these new gaming goggles.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Details briefly appeared on the Canadian version of the US retail website – listing the price at hefty $1,125.35 (some £550 converted).</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Amazon has since stripped the price from the item listening, which now reads: <em>Currently Unavailable.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sony is keeping <em>schtum</em> about the final price, so it's unclear whether the £550 price tag is a leak, or a blunder by someone at Amazon.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Priced at over £500, this means the PlayStation VR headset, which allows gamers to experience immersive 360 degree versions of their favourite PS4 games, is considerably more than rival Oculus Rift.</div>

Oculus finally unveiled its official retail price earlier this week – and it'll set you back £499 in the UK, or $599 in the United States.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a far-cry from the $350 'ballpark' Oculus founder Palmer Luckey last year claimed the gadget would cost.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sony have been quick to dismiss the pricing on Amazon with a statement saying: “This was an error by Amazon, we haven’t announced price for PlayStation VR.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With the virtual gaming race now in full swing we’re sure it won’t be too long until Sony reveals all about the PlayStation VR.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Sony, "PlayStation VR allows you to experience the future of gaming through virtual reality with just the visor, your PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation Camera."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The headset combines a landscape-scanning, full-HD LCD 1080p display and a uniquely developed optical unit with an approximate 100 degree field of view to create a vast 3D space in front of your eyes.</div>
