"Resident Evil: Revelations." (HO)

After the disappointing Resident Evil 6 crapped all over the hopes of longtime Resident Evil fans last fall, there's now a spot of bright light with the news that the Nintendo 3DS title Resident Evil: Revelations will be landing on the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U and PC on May 21. Revelations was a much more old-school Resident Evil experience but felt hamstrung without proper gamepad control, so this could be the best of both worlds.

Gas Powered Games, the studio behind Supreme Commander and the Dungeon Siege series, is pinning its hopes to one last kick(starter) at the can in with a role-playing/strategy game hybrid called Wildman.

Skyrim getting bigger on PS3

PlayStation 3 gamers who've been dying to become a vampire -- there's a pun in there somewhere - or just custom-build their own homes in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will be able to do so next month with the arrival of the Dragonborn, Dawnguard and Hearthfire add-ons for the PS3 version of the epic role-playing game. The extras have been available for some time on the Xbox 360, but will launch at a discounted price on the PlayStation Network. If that's any consolation.
