You know what that means… we have no information on when it is going to get released here then either. Speaking to IGN this morning, Microsoft spokesperson Kate Szlendak said: “At the moment we have …

I personally think that is the worst ever gaming cover of all time. I mean it’s just plain creepy really….. IGN has a list of the worst 25 covers of all time and they rated this one 5th (as you can see by the pretty gold block in the corner). So it makes you think what could possibly be worse …
