The famous barbarian roars into the UK with Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. This massively multiplayer online role-playing game for the PC has been long awaited by fans. Developed by Funcom--the creator of Anarchy Online--it was revealed at the start of the week that a total of 700,000 copies of the fantasy game were due to rampage amongst the general public on release day. Preorders of the Collector's Edition have now completely sold out--despite a second print run to cope with demand, bringing the total to 110,000. However, those who fancy their chances can try getting to stores early--there are still some retail copies of the Collector's Edition available, said Funcom.

PlayStation 3 exclusive first-person shooter Haze will be gunning onto consoles today. From Free Radical--the developer of TimeSplitters--the game sees privatized soldiers use a drug called Nectar to enhance their combat abilities, unaware that it's also controlling their minds. Haze is priced at ￡49.99.
