Poll Are You Playing Mortal Kombat 1?
Prepare for kombat
You may not have realised thanks to a brief period of early access, but today marks the full release of Mortal Kombat 1. The latest instalment in NetherRealm's eternally popular fighting game series, it's got typically impressive visuals, punchy gameplay, and a twisted interest in watching entrails leave the human body in...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium for September 2023?
Star Ocean! Vanillaware! And the rest!
As massive Vanillaware fanboys, we think September's PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium update is especially tasteful, but as always, we want to know what you think of the selection. Just to recap, this month's line-up is headlined by NieR Replicant, Star Ocean: The Divine Force, and
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Baldur's Gate 3?
Open the gate
With the caveat that some of you reading this won't have finished Baldur's Gate 3 yet, we want to know what you think of the incredibly highly rated RPG. The PS5 version has been out for over a week now, and it still sits as one of the best reviewed games of... well, pretty much ever, regardless of platform. Indeed, we can vouch for...
Poll Was Sony's Latest State of Play Worth the Wait?
Have your say on the SoP
Another State of Play showcase from Sony has now been and gone, this time sharing news for previously revealed indie and third-party games. A fairly low-key affair for saying it was only the second general State of Play livestream of 2023, but there were a few announcements and reveals to take note of. The big piece of news...
Community Push Square Readers Narrow Down Best Game of All Time Vote to Two Classics
Old vs. new
We're facing up against that eternal question yet again — what's the best game of all time? Which single title trumps all others? It's impossible to truly answer, as there are countless incredible games that could be worthy of being labelled the GOAT. However, that's not dissuaded our enthusiastic readership from finding an answer...
Poll Did You Buy Baldur's Gate 3?
We're in the gateway to hell
If you've been following Baldur's Gate 3 since its original announcement — and you had somehow always planned on a PlayStation release — then this day has been a long time coming. Larian Studios' celebrated RPG is out now on PS5, bringing one of the highest rated games... well, pretty much ever, to Sony's current-gen...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for September 2023?
Plus or minus?
Uh oh, we've got a bad feeling about this one. Each month, we ask you lot for your thoughts on the latest PS Plus announcements, and we can't wait to hear what you think of September's reveal. We say that because Sony seems to have riled up a lot of PlayStation fans over the last few days, as it unveiled a questionable PS Plus...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Armored Core 6?
Don't hold back, Raven
The game's been out on PS5 and PS4 for a week now, and if you've managed to beat the infamous first boss, we'd like to know what you think of Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon. Indeed, there's no question that this is a hardcore action game — something the series has always embraced — but in riding on the wave of...
News PS5 Fans Divided on PlayStation Portal Handheld
Peering into the Portal
Revealed last week, PlayStation Portal is Sony's own answer to remote play on PS5. In other words, it allows players to stream their PS5 games to an eight inch, 1080p screen with DualSense functionality attached to it. Retailing at $199.99 / £199.99 / €219.99, there's been a lot of discussion around whether it's a...
Poll What PS5 Game Had the Best Showing at Gamescom Opening Night Live?
Take your pick
Another Gamescom Opening Night Live has come and gone, with Geoff Keighley's latest showcase being... a moderate success, we'd say. In our recent poll, readers were torn between calling the event "good", "poor", and just "okay" — but today, we're not here to judge the show as a whole. Instead, we want to know which PS5 title...
Poll Did You Buy Armored Core 6?
Core fans
It's almost surreal to think that a series like Armored Core is currently one of the biggest talking points in gaming, but that's the power of modern FromSoftware. The latest game in the long-running mecha series — it's only been a ten-year hiatus! — is out now on PS5 and PS4, but will you be adding to the hype? As always, we want to...
Poll Was Gamescom Opening Night Live Any Good?
Did Keighley deliver?
The main thing Geoff Keighley was doing in the lead-up to his Gamescom Opening Night Live event was tempering fan expectations rather than raising them — a rare change in approach for the host. Although, this is a video game show, so someone out there was still probably expecting to see Half-Life 3 and Bloodborne 2. The...
Poll What PS5 Game Do You Most Want to See at Gamescom Opening Night Live?
A lot to choose from
Airing tomorrow night at the time of writing, Gamescom Opening Night Live should prove to be a decent show — provided your expectations are kept in check. As per organiser and host Geoff Keighley, this year's event will focus on games that we already know about, rather than surprise announcements. Now, that may not sound...
Poll Is 'Live Service' Becoming an Excuse to Release Unfinished Games?
We'll fix it later
It feels like the term 'live service' is more divisive than ever. With Sony seemingly jumping on the bandwagon in search of its own money-printing machine — with titles like Fairgame$ — the live service model is under constant scrutiny here on the web. And when one of these games goes under, boy do you hear about it. Achieving...
Poll Did You Buy Red Dead Redemption's PS4 Port?
Dead eye to eye
Out now on PS4 (and PS5 via backwards compatibility, of course), Red Dead Redemption rides again. Rockstar's open world western was a game that helped define the PS3 generation, and 13 years later, it's still held in extremely high regard. It is nice, then, to see such a classic finally be unshackled from last-last-gen hardware —...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for August 2023?
Another 17 games added
It's time once again to weigh up another batch of games coming to PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium. 17 titles are making the jump to Sony's more expensive subscription tiers, and we'll go right ahead and say that there's a lot of variety to this month's selection. From super promising indie RPG Sea of Stars — which debuts...
Poll Will You Be Buying Red Dead Redemption on PS4?
Put 'em up
Red Dead Redemption is coming back, but not in the form many fans were hoping for. The PS4 port was announced earlier this week, with Rockstar's official press release pretty much confirming that this version won't boast any enhancements over the PS3 original. There's no mention of an improved frame rate, resolution, or updated assets. As...
And what was the best tournament?
And just like that, another annual Evo event is over. Just in case you had no idea if was happening, Evo 2023 took place over the weekend, welcoming thousands upon thousands of fighting game competitors and spectators. Most of the tournaments were streamed live online, with the finals for Marvel vs Capcom 3, Tekken...
Poll Will You Be Muting Your PS5's Beep?
BEEP
Just in case you missed it, the next major PS5 firmware update will let you disable the console's infamous 'beep' — the surprisingly loud chirp that occurs whenever you switch your system on. In truth, we've come to embrace the beep, but this news has revealed that some PS5 players aren't too keen on it. Whether you're just not a fan of the...
Poll Is Twisted Metal's TV Show a Win or a Write-Off?
Calypso needs to know
It’s been a few days since Twisted Metal’s oddball television show started streaming on Peacock. While first impressions were disastrous based on a now infamous Thong Song scene showcased during Summer Game Fest, the reception to the entire first season has been much warmer overall, with reviews still largely mixed but many...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for August 2023?
Plus or minus?
Your PS Plus Essential games for August 2023 have been confirmed, and we've already seen a lot of divided opinions out there in the wilds of the internet. As per usual, we're getting three titles on the first Tuesday of the month, and they are: golfing sim PGA Tour 2K23, Media Molecule's creativity-fueled Dreams, and indie darling...
Poll Who's the Best Final Fantasy Protagonist?
There can only be one
Now that we've all had time to settle into a reality where Final Fantasy 16 exists, this is our chance to revisit a question that's reverberated around the Final Fantasy fandom for decades: just who is the series' best protagonist? Now, for the sake of this poll, we're going to streamline things and focus on mainline Final...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Trails into Reverie?
The beginning and the end
Calling all Trails fans: we need your help. As regular readers may know, we have our own Best Trails Games guide, which ranks each title in Falcom's RPG series, and it's all user rated. With that in mind, we need some ratings for the latest game, Trails into Reverie — and that's why we've constructed this poll. Now,...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for July 2023?
18 more PS5, PS4, and Classic titles join
Another month brings another long list of PS5, PS4, and Classic games to PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium, but are you excited or disappointed by the July 2023 lineup? Of the 18 titles on their way next week, the headliners include It Takes Two,
Talking Point What Are Your Favourite PS5, PS4 Games of 2023 So Far?
Six months of quality gaming
We don't know about you, but we think 2023 has been an amazing year for PlayStation gaming thus far. We've had highly rated blockbusters, we've had smaller hits, and perhaps most importantly, we had a lot of variety. Of course, the year is far from over — and the second half of 2023 has serious potential as well —...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for July 2023?
Plus or minus?
July 2023's PS Plus Essential games have been officially revealed, and we reckon it's another solid month for the subscription service. As per usual, three titles are up for grabs across PS5 and PS4. We've got Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Alan Wake Remastered, and Endling: Extinction is Forever. Obviously something like Call of...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Final Fantasy 16?
Hot stuff?
Final Fantasy 16 has been available on PS5 for just over a week, and so, as always, we want to know what you think of the latest blockbuster release. While it undoubtedly has its flaws, the overall reception of the action RPG has been very positive online. High critic reviews and plenty of praise from players has resulted in one of the...
Poll Are You Playing Final Fantasy 16?
Live with Clive
The day is finally upon us, Final Fantasy fans (and everyone else who's been looking forward to this rather drastic departure for the series). Final Fantasy 16 is out right now on PS5 exclusively, and it's fair to say that the hype for this one has been immense. Fortunately, the game itself is fantastic, as noted in our Final...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for June 2023?
Another 27 games added
It's another significant update for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers this month, as Sony has confirmed that a whopping 27 additional games will be made available next week. As you'd expect of such a sizeable selection, there's a lot of variety on offer, from big budget open worlders like Far Cry 6 to brand new indies like...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Diablo 4?
Hell yeah?
It's been just over a week since the launch of Diablo 4 on PS5 and PS4. Blizzard's latest seems to have really struck a chord with dungeon crawling enthusiasts, immediately racking up enough interest for it to be crowned the company's fastest selling game ever. Safe to say it's been a hit! But as per usual, it's not the sales figures...
Poll What Do You Think of the Final Fantasy 16 PS5 Demo?
Hot stuff?
It's finally time for Final Fantasy XVI... Well, the playable demo, at least. Out right now on PS5, the demo features a sizeable chunk of the game's opening act, as well as a battle-based mode that showcases the abilities that you unlock later on in Clive's adventure. it's a robust offering, giving players a decent idea of the upcoming...
Poll Was Capcom Showcase 2023 All Killer, or Mostly Filler?
Capgod or Capdud?
Capcom is one of the last major publishers with its own dedicated event this June. It's been on a fantastic run of form for years now, and today was another opportunity for the company to show it's still going strong. We saw a handful of exciting titles from the publisher during Capcom Showcase 2023, including Dragon's Dogma 2,...
Poll Was Ubisoft Forward 2023 Princely or Just Pants?
Forward or backward?
It was Ubisoft's turn in the summer spotlight with Ubisoft Forward, and now the showcase has come to a close. As expected, we saw the likes of Assassin's Creed Mirage, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and plenty more. While it was a pretty predictable run of games for the French publisher, we want...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Street Fighter 6?
Out here on the streets
Street Fighter 6 has been out for about a week now on PS5 and PS4, bringing Capcom's iconic fighting game franchise back with a bang. The brawler has received incredibly high praise from just about everyone; critics gave it some outstanding review scores and players — both professional and casual — seem to be having a...
Poll Was Summer Game Fest 2023 a Sizzler or a Wash Out?
Sunny side up
The curtain has closed on host Geoff Keighley’s annual E3-inspired livestream bonanza, with Summer Game Fest 2023 bringing the first gameplay from Mortal Kombat 1, as well as Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Marvel's Spider-Man 2 updates. But after a slightly subdued PS Showcase earlier in the year, did the mastermind behind
Poll Are You Playing Diablo 4?
Hot stuff
Continuing the insanity that is June's release schedule, Diablo 4 is out now on PS5 and PS4. The loot-heavy action RPG had been in development at Blizzard for what felt like an eternity at times, but it's finally here, and by most accounts, it's very, very good. Want proof? Well, we gave it an 'excellent' 9/10 in our Diablo 4 PS5 review...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for June 2023?
Plus or minus?
It's crazy to think we're almost halfway through 2023, isn't it? That means we've had six of these PS Plus Essential polls throughout the year already, but June's line up might just be one of the most divisive selections yet. In case you missed the news, subscribers are getting three games across both PS5 and PS4 this month:...
Poll Are You Playing Street Fighter 6?

Feature PSVR2 Three Months Later - The Good, The Bad, and The Worrying
Welcome to reality
PSVR2 launched just over three months ago at the time of writing this article. Sony's second foray into the potentially wonderful world of virtual reality, the headset itself has been praised as a great bit of kit, providing some impressive technical specs and being relatively easy to actually use — a common complaint in the...
Poll Which PS5 Blockbuster Will You Be Playing in June?
The holy trinity
Six months in, and 2023 has been great for games. But ever since the start of the year, we've been sitting here looking at the June release schedule and sweating.

The PS5 big guns arrive
Nearly 20 months later, Sony has finally followed up on the PlayStation Showcase from 2021 with a big glimpse behind the curtain at what its first-party studios are working on it.

Poll How Hyped Are You for the PlayStation Showcase?
The big one
Can't wait until Wednesday? We know the feeling. Sony's kept us all in the dark for way too long, and so there are high expectations surrounding this week's PlayStation Showcase. Whether the event actually lives up to those expectations doesn't matter right now, though. We're very much in the calm before the storm, and so we wanted to...
Poll We Need You to Rate the Trails Games
Be a hero
Over recent years, Falcom's long-running Trails series has gained a lot of traction here in the West. We're still a few games behind at the time of writing this article, but publisher NIS America has hit a steady stride in releasing title after title. And thankfully, we're now at a point where there are enough Trails games on modern...

Something for everyone

Poll What's the Best PlayStation Startup Sequence?
PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, PS5?
When you think of PlayStation, does a specific console startup come to mind? Sony's crafted some iconic system screens over the years — complete with some iconic sounds — but which one's the best? We know that's a potentially difficult question — and it might be wholly dependent on how old you are! — but it should...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?
Cal it
It's been a week since the release of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor on PS5. The action adventure certainly seems to have struck a chord with gamers in general, although there is ongoing debate regarding the game's technical state, which is being improved bit by bit via updates. There's something great at Survivor's core, though. We gave it an...

Poll What Review Score Would You Give Dead Island 2?
Back from the dead
Dead Island 2 has been shuffling around PS5 and PS4 for over a week now, and so it's time to find out what you lot think about this latest zombie-smushing title.

Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for May 2023?
Plus or minus?
May 2023's PS Plus Essential games were leaked just hours ahead of their official reveal earlier this week, and it's fair to say that the lineup divided opinion on both occasions. To be fair, it is a bit of an odd selection. We've got GRID Legends headlining things — a solid racer with some questionable FMV story stuff thrown in...
Poll Are You Playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?
[Lightsaber noises]
Another of 2023's blockbuster games has just landed on PS5. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is out now on Sony's current-gen console, and it's already attracted some very, very positive reviews. The direct sequel to 2019's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, players once again find themselves in the well-worn boots of Cal Kestis, a Jedi, er,...
