Ubisoft Paris announced this morning that it's working on a new entry in the Ghost Recon series, titled Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. And yes, you've heard that name before.

It'll feature both singleplayer and multiplayer modes, while the publisher also promises beta access to anyone buying Splinter Cell Conviction on the 360 later this year.

The beta will run this summer, with the game out sometime in the holiday season.

Game developer Blizzard has already shown the male version of the Diablo III monk. It hasn't shown the female version. Until now.

Diablo III has four character classes announced so: Witch Doctor, Wizard, Barbarian, and Monk. This concept art is for the female version of the existing monk.

Check it out. And that pixie hair!

Commenting. Regular features. Kotaku culture. If you are new to the site, there's a lot to absorb. It would be great if somebody condensed everything into one easy to follow guide. Somebody did.

This is the guide that we should have made, but never did. Like we said, Deanbmmv did. And for that, you should thank him.

We also thank reader bakagaijin for nominating deanbmmv's comment for Comment of the Week — we just did one better and decided to give...

You know, for all the talk of this being the "HD generation", we've got our suspicions that many of you are still toiling away on standard definition TV sets. It's time to turn those suspicions into science.

Below you'll find some polls. The second allows you to select multiple options, since there may be more than one factor contributing to your decision. We'd be ever so grateful if you could respond (honestly!), and help give us an idea of the breakdown between HDTV ("High Definition Television) and SDTV (Standard Definition Television) users out there among our readership.

By participating, you'll be contributing to science. And who knows. We may even be able to do something useful with all this data...

Euro-Zone Debt Concerns Weigh Heavily on EUR Traders are expecting a slow news day, and as such may experience thin trading conditions and low liquidity. The few reports expected shouldn't cause too much of a stir, but with thin trading it may result in some decent price action. The EUR's uptick on Monday has many concerned that the 16-nation currency is now due for a downward correction, especially given the rapidly declining sentiment in the Euro-Zone caused by decisions made in Greece and Portugal concerning national debt and government spending, respectively.
