Morning folks, let’s see what emerged in the gaming sphere last night. Highlights include Microsoft trying to flog more XOs with Halo seeing as Destiny has seemingly sided with the PS4. There are new Disgaea and Giana Sisters games on the way. Battlefield 4 is getting yet another patch, which will hopefully iron out some of those more persistent glitches. Or maybe just add a compulsory download for the next DLC, filling our hard-drives whether we’re buying it or not. Finally, check out the near final list of games you’ll be able to play at next week’s Eurogamer Expo, or hold on for a fat collection of previews as I’m heading down there myself. You should get down there though really.

• Microsoft Explains Why Halo: Master Chief Collection Isn’t Coming to PC: We imagine they’d like to sell some XOs.
• Battlefield 4 “Fall Patch” Coming Soon: Fixes or just DLC groundwork?
• First Disgaea 5 Details Revealed: PS4 exclusive. Eight Vita versions to follow. Probably.
• 85% of PS4 VR Headset Work Is Done, Sony Says: Date? Price?
• UK PS4 sales up 300 per cent thanks to Destiny launch: Beats Xbox One by 2:1.
• Giana Sisters 2 is in development for Wii U, PS4 and Xbox One: Platformer fans take note.

In case you missed it:
