Back in June I made my PlayStation 4 look old and classy with a wooden cover by a company called Toast. It was fast and easy. Doing the same thing to my Nintendo Switch took a little more work.

Oregon-based company Toast makes covers for phones, laptops, tablets and game consoles out of real wood. When they asked me if I'd like to give their PS4 Pro cover a try, I said, "Sure." When they asked if I wanted anything etched on it, I said, "I like squirrels. And Marvel's Squirrel Girl."

Need a reason to learn how to play the electric guitar? YouTube musician FamilyJules7X demonstrates how well mad guitar skills and gaming go together in his triumphant electric cover of Jonathan Coulton's "Want You Gone".

Game Informer has revealed the cover for its February issue, dedicated to Bethesda's recently revealed The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and while the front is rather classy and subdued, there's a mysterious party going on around back.

Tim Tebow getting the cover of NCAA Football 11 was part rumour, part poorly kept secret, and all but assured. EA Sports has confirmed for Kotaku that Tebow will be on the cover of all versions of the game.

He's also sharing it with a rookie. Billed as an advertisement of the game's Ryder Cup features, some take the pairing with Rory McIlroy as more fallout from Tiger's inability to abstain from sex with women not named Mrs Woods.

It's official, God of War III hits stores beginning March 16. (That's a Tuesday for those of you planning illnesses.)
