Show of the Week: Xbox One and Call of Duty: Ghosts

Show of the Week: Xbox One and Call of Duty: Ghosts

This week, we saw the face of a new generation: the device that Microsoft hopes will define our entertainment habits for the next 10 years. It looked like a VCR from the future for watching American sports. Although the TV-heavy Xbox One reveal was disappointingly light on games, we did get an eyeful of Call of Duty: Ghosts, the first next-gen Call of Duty. It's to that game and its canine commando Show of the Week turns its attention.

The 5 Deadliest Real-Life Cowboys You'll Meet in Call of Juarez: Gunslinger

The 5 Deadliest Real-Life Cowboys You'll Meet in Call of Juarez: Gunslinger

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger may be narrated by a guy with less memory than a ZX Spectrum, but a lot of the characters he talks about meeting during his storied bounty hunting career are very real. While their stories might not have included gatling gun boss battles, mine collapses or rooftop train fights, they were still larger than life characters during a colourful and turbulent period of American history. Watch on for a who's who of the legends of the Old West that you'll meet if you pick up the game.

Xbox One Reveal: Reaction and Analysis

Xbox One Reveal: Reaction and Analysis

Let's Play: Crash Course 2

It's not often you get a free game on XBLA, but you'll find that recent release Crash Course 2 can be downloaded completely gratis. That's because it's funded by a giant in the world of adding flavoured dust to corn tortilla chips, presumably in the hope that the goodwill will convert directly into inter-meal snacking.
