Evolution, not revolution
Nacon's back with another licensed PlayStation 4 pad, adding to its already impressive controller lineup on Sony's system.

Game of the Year #4 - Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
What the Force deserves
It's almost impressive how badly Electronic Arts has handled the Star Wars license up to now.

Feature PSVR Had a Great Start, But It's Time to Up the Ante
How can PSVR improve in 2020 and beyond?
PlayStation VR was introduced to the world just over three years ago, and it brought the tech to the masses.

Game of the Year #5 - Devil May Cry 5
Hell yes
Devil May Cry 5 is Capcom back to its best. After a rocky start to the generation, the legendary developer has upped its game dramatically over the last couple of years, and the return of Dante is a standout moment, once again proving that no one understands action quite like Capcom. In short, Devil May Cry 5 is easily one of the best...

Game of the Year Best PS4 Story of 2019
Narrative hooks
