Talking Point Is Assassin's Creed Moving in the Right Direction?
More more more
Ubisoft clearly has big plans for Assassin's Creed. The historically-focused franchise has arguably become the publisher's most important product, so it was no surprise to see the series headline Ubisoft's latest showcase. In fact, it felt like the entire presentation existed because of Assassin's Creed. The property had its own...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give The Last of Us: Part I?
Last but not least
The Last of Us: Part I — Naughty Dog's remake of the PS3 and PS4 remastered modern classic — has been available on PS5 for roughly a week now, and we want to know what you think of it. It's fair to say that this has been a divisive release, mostly due to Part I's full retail price point. This was something that we had little...
Poll Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for September 2022?
Plus or minus?
Sony blindsided us this week by announcing all of the games for PS Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium at the same time. As such, this month's PS Plus poll is a big one. Let's start with the Essential selection, which, as per usual, consists of three games. We've got delightful indie Toem on PS5, the flashy Need for Speed Heat on PS4,...
Poll Did You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
Us or them
One of Sony's heaviest hitters of 2022 is here — and it's a remake of what many consider to be one of the greatest PlayStation titles of all time. However, Sony's decision to sell The Last of Us: Part I at full price has has already resulted in a tidal wave of criticism. As we wrote in our review, this is still a phenomenal video game...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Rollerdrome?
Skate or die
10 days on from Roll7's second PS5, PS4 release of 2022, it's time to have your say on Rollerdrome. The futuristic blood sport asks you to rack up high scores by taking out goons and performing tricks and grinds in-between. We had a really great time with the title, awarding it an 8/10 in our PS5 review. We concluded in our Rollerdrome...
You're the Boss
The rebooted, new-look Saints Row is here, and we quite liked it ( we even wrote a whole Saints Row Collectibles guide!) — but the game's received plenty of criticism elsewhere. As such, it's quite difficult to judge just how well this latest open world romp will resonate with players. It's got the advantage of launching at a time...
Poll How Much Would You Pay for the DualSense Edge PS5 Pro Controller?
Edgy enough for you?
It's finally happening: Sony is making its own 'Pro' PS5 controller, named the DualSense Edge. The pad was revealed through a brief trailer during Geoff Keighley's lengthy Gamescom Opening Night Live 2022 show, and it's exactly the kind of product that you'd expect. You can remap every input, save different configurations,...
Poll Was Gamescom Opening Night Live 2022 Any Good?
Have your say
The time has arrived to rate another Geoff Keighley bonanza. Of his three yearly shows, Gamescom Opening Night Live has usually proven to be the weakest, but did the 2022 version buck the trend? Share your thoughts in this Push Square poll. We already knew about a handful of the announcements going into the show, like a new look at...
Poll Is PS Plus Premium Good Enough?
How can Sony improve it?
With confirmation that exactly zero games were added to PS Plus Premium's library for August's update, those subscribed to the service's most expensive tier are understandably asking questions. Meanwhile, behind the scenes here at Push Square, we've been having conversations a
Poll Will Sony Host a PlayStation Showcase Next Month?
The age-old question
It has been almost a full year since Sony's last PlayStation Showcase, where it now typically debuts some of its biggest first-party projects alongside major announcements from other publishers. Last year's event played host to the reveals of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Marvel's Wolverine, as well as a new God of War Ragnarok...
Poll Sleeping Dogs Turns 10 Years Old - Are You Still a Fan?
Going Wei back
Sleeping Dogs just turned ten years old! The sandbox title first launched for the PS3 on the 14th August 2012, and it's safe to say that it's fondly remembered. At the time, Sleeping Dogs didn't set the world alight with rave review scores or super high sales figures, but it did gain significant traction over the years that followed...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for August 2022?
Extra plus or extra minus?
August's PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium games have been officially revealed, and if you happen to be new to the Yakuza franchise, you're in for a treat. We're looking at a total of 12 games being added to the subscription service, but there's been a bit of a backlash over the complete lack of cla
Poll Did You Ever Use PS5 Accolades?
We hardly knew ye
Sony is set to discontinue PS5 accolades later this year, if you can believe it. What? You don't even know what the PS5 accolades system is? Well, let's have ourselves quick recap to refresh our memories... Accolades are basically digital awards that you can earn through playing multiplayer games on PS5. They were revealed just...
Poll Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Essential Games for August 2022?
Plus or minus?
The PS Plus Essential line-up for August 2022 has been officially announced, and as always, we would like nothing more than to hear whether you're happy with what's being offered. But first, let's run through a quick recap, shall we? You could argue that August has not one, but two headline acts in the form of top notch remake Tony...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Stray?
Fur real
Stray has been out for a few days now, and it really seems to have struck a chord with a lot of people. Obviously making a game where you play as a cat that can meow on command is going to have mass appeal from the start — but very positive reviews and the fact that it's available through PS Plus Extra certainly helps. Indeed, we gave...
Really feline it
Cyberpunk cat simulator Stray is out now on PS5 and PS4 — and it's available at no additional cost if you're subscribed to PS Plus Extra. But as always, we want to know if you're playing the latest hot release! For what it's worth, we think Stray is a great game. We gave it an 8/10 in our Stray PS5 review, heaping praise on its...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for July 2022?
Have your say
Here it is, then: the very first PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium refreshes since the two tiers launched last month. The new PS5, PS4, and Classic titles will be available for download from 19th July 2022, but until then, we want to hear your thoughts on the lineup. As a quick refresh of the new gam
Poll What PS Stars Rewards Do You Want?
And how are you willing to earn them?
Sony announced PS Stars today, a long overdue worldwide loyalty scheme that will reward you for engaging with your PS5 and PS4 over a prolonged period of time. It’s a necessary and important reveal from the platform holder, as PlayStation finds itself in a highly competitive market where the benefits of...
Poll Is The Last of Us: Part 1 Really a 'Cash Grab'?
It can't be for nothing... can it?
There's a big debate happening in the PlayStation community right now, and it's all about The Last of Us: Part I. The upcoming PS5 remake of Naughty Dog's landmark 2013 release has already attracted a lot of criticism from some onlookers, many of whom claim that the project is simply a "cash grab", or something to...
Feature What Are Your Most Anticipated PS5, PS4 Games for the Rest of 2022?
Have your say in the Push Square vote
After an action-packed first six months from Sony and third-party publishers, the rest of 2022 is promising just as much fun. We've already had the likes of Horizon Forbidden West, Elden Ring, and Gran Turismo 7 to entertain us at the start of the year, but now it is time to turn our sights to the end of it. Fo
Poll Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Essential Games for July 2022?
Plus or minus?
The PS Plus games for July 2022 have been officially announced, and as always, we want to know what you think of the selection. Just to be clear, we're talking about the PS Plus Essential line up here — we need to make that distinction now that PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium are a thing! A quick recap: July 2022's PS Plus titles...
Poll Was Sony's State of Play the Best Gaming Showcase of June?
The winner of Not-E3
Penning this poll almost feels like throwing a lit match into a room full of flammable gas, but we're going to do it anyway. We want to know: do you think Sony's latest State of Play actually ended up being the best gaming showcase of Not-E3? That is, the best gaming showcase of June 2022? We ask because we think this is a...
Poll Which PS Plus Tier Are You Subscribed To?
Essential, Extra, or Premium?
Now that the new PS Plus tiers are available worldwide (they finally launched in Europe, Australia, and a few other regions earlier in the week), we simply have to ask: which tier are you subscribed to? PS Plus Essential is the new name for the standard PS Plus service. You get your online multiplayer access, cloud...
Poll Which Final Fantasy Game are You Most Looking Forward to?
Far from final
The next 18 months or so are going to be huge for fans of Final Fantasy — assuming there are no delays! There are currently not one, not two, but three high profile Final Fantasy titles scheduled for PlayStation platforms before 2024. But which one are you most excited about? It all kicks off this winter with what Square Enix is...
Poll Will You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
Or is it a remake too far?
The Last of Us: Part I is real, and it's coming to PS5 on the 2nd September. The long-rumoured announcement was meant to be Geoff Keighley's big finale for Summer Game Fest Live, but Sony somehow managed to leak the entire thing through its own PlayStation Direct store just hours before the show. Perhaps that leak...
Poll Was Summer Game Fest Live a Show to Remember?
Did Keighley deliver?
Whether it's officially called E3 or not, Geoff Keighley will be there in June with a livestream packed full of video game reveals. This year it's Summer Game Fest Live, and the run-up to the show was dampened somewhat as the host himself told us to "manage our expectations". Was our hype better aligned as a result of...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for June 2022?
Plus or minus?
June's PS Plus games have been officially announced, and it's fair to say that this month's line up is an important one, because Sony's set to launch the new PS Plus tiers worldwide over the next few weeks. It's a bit of a shame, then, that the selection has been met with a wave of criticism. Most of that is directed towards 2018's...
Poll What Was Your Favourite PS5, PS4 Game Shown at State of Play?
Sony brings the big guns
Wow, it's been quite a while since we've seen a State of Play elicit such a positive response. Sony's latest show — which aired just last night at the time of writing — was expertly paced and packed with big games. It started with Resident Evil 4 and finished with Final Fantasy XVI, for god's sake! As explained in our...
Poll Did Sony's Latest State of Play Livestream Live Up to the Hype?
The best one yet or the best one yet?
It's been a while since Sony's last general State of Play livestream, but the company returned with nearly 30 minutes of PS5, PS4, and PSVR2 announcements for its fanbase this week. Since we've already gotten a good look at the headset itself along with its next-gen controllers, Sony lifted the lid on some new...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Sniper Elite 5?
On target or out of focus?
The Sniper Elite series has been aggressively consistent, with storied developer Rebellion fine-tuning its execution with each iteration, rarely reinventing the wheel, but doing just enough with the franchise’s established stealth/sniping gameplay to keep it fresh. Gruff protagonist Karl Fairburne’s latest infiltration...
Poll Do You Care About PlayStation TV Shows?
Tune in or tune out
If it was not already clear before this week, it most certainly should be now: PlayStation is about more than just its PS5 console and lineup of quality single player focused titles. Sony is pushing for more live-service games, it's porting more to PC, and its
Poll Do PS Plus Premium's Classic Games Need Trophies for You to Play Them?
Ding!
When Sony re-revealed PS Plus Extra and Premium earlier this week, we saw a lot of people asking whether the classic PS1, PS2, and PSP titles included with Premium would include Trophy support. The digital trinkets system has become an integral part of PlayStation gaming since it was introduced back in the PS3 era, and some would argue that...
Poll Are You Sold on PS Plus Extra or Premium?
Sub up
Sony has finally spilled (some) of the beans on its overhauled PS Plus service, just a few weeks out from its various regional launch dates. It's revealed (some) of the games that'll be available to subscribers through its new PS Plus tiers, Extra and Premium, while also giving us (some) new information on what we can expect from PS Plus...
Talking Point Does Sony Need a Big Summer Showcase?
Time to shine
Primarily thanks to E3, the summer months have long been the time for console makers and publishers to push their plans for the future. Of course, E3 itself is pretty much dead and buried at this point, but its lasting legacy is clear to see, with events like Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest eagerly taking its place alongside...
Poll When Do You Think Final Fantasy 16 Will Release?
But a Fantasy
It's been a pretty slow week for news, so let's enter the weekend with a potentially interesting poll: when do you think Final Fantasy XVI will release? The PS5 action RPG was first revealed during Sony's next-gen showcase in 2020. Since then, we've seen almost nothing of the game, barring a few screenshots and concept art. It feels...
Poll Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for May 2022?
Plus or minus?
Another month, another PlayStation Plus games announcement. May's selection is bound to divide opinion thanks to FIFA 22 being its headline act. The footballing sim is obviously massively popular — a global best seller year in, year out — and so its inclusion on a service like PS Plus is questionable. You would think that those...
Poll What Do You Expect from Retro PlayStation Games on PS5, PS4?
Save states? Rewind? Trophies?
There was unexpected excitement during this desperately dull April earlier today when a bunch of classic Syphon Filter games were rated for release on the PlayStation 5 and PS4 in South Korea. The releases – expanding to pretty much every entry in the series, aside from its PS2 outing Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain...
Poll When Do You Think God of War Ragnarok Will Release?
The end is nigh
Earlier this week, God of War (2018) celebrated its fourth anniversary. Some fans thought that the occasion would warrant a fresh look at the game's upcoming sequel, God of War Ragnarok, but developer Sony Santa Monica Studio burst the potential hype bubble. It said that it simply isn't ready to share news on Ragnarok just yet, but...
Poll As God of War Turns Four, What Would You Rate It Today?
Kratos makes a wish
Today marks the fourth anniversary of PlayStation 4 classic God of War — happy birthday to Kratos, Atreus, and co! We imagine the father and son are currently blowing out some candles and wishing for their battle with Thor to hurry up. It has been quite the wait, but that showdown will finally take place in this year's God of...
Poll What's Your PS5, PS4 Game of the Year So Far?
Share your choice
As we reach the Easter bank holiday weekend, it's time to take stock of the year so far. In terms of PlayStation 5 and PS4 releases, it's been electric. Exclusive games have lit up our game playing time, and so too have a number of third-party releases. As a result, it's possible to be in a position where you already have a Game of...
Poll Do Remakes of Old Games Get You Excited?
Back to the future
Earlier this week, Remedy announced that it was remaking the first two Max Payne games. It's early days, but it's the kind of announcement that gets fans of the original titles dreaming of what could be. Indeed, remaking classic games is something that's becoming more and more common as our nostalgia for bygone console generations...
Poll Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for April 2022?
Plus or minus?
No, we can't believe that it's already April either, but at least the dawning of a new month gives us an excuse to complain about PlayStation Plus! Seriously though, snark aside, the initial reaction to April's PS Plus games line-up hasn't been great. While the selection does boast a couple of relatively highly rated PS4 titles —...
Poll Will You Subscribe to Sony's New PS Plus Tiers?
Essential, Extra, or Premium?
We've had to endure months of social media teasing from industry "insiders", but we're finally here: the newly tiered PlayStation Plus subscription service has been officially announced. Thank god. But it's safe to say that initial impressions have been mixed — as you'd probably expect. If you haven't actually seen...
Poll We Want You to Rate Your Favourite PSP Games
Help us build a definitive list
With Sony now more or less completely withdrawn from the handheld gaming market, it’s perhaps easy to forget that the PSP was a huge success. While it was pretty much always in the Nintendo DS’ shadow, the system sold a staggering 80 million units throughout its lifespan, and served as a precursor to pocketable...
Poll Did You Buy Tiny Tina's Wonderlands?
Roll the dice
Despite 2K and Gearbox's best efforts, it does feel like Borderlands spinoff Tiny Tina's Wonderlands has struggled to stand out. The loot-heavy shooter is another game — like Ghostwire: Tokyo — that's having to follow up on absolute juggernaut releases such as Horizon Forbidden West and Elden Ring. Obviously Wonderlands is going to...
Poll Did You Buy Ghostwire: Tokyo?
Hands on
The last few weeks have been a particularly busy period for big games, to the point where we almost feel a bit sorry for games like Ghostwire: Tokyo. A solid action adventure title by most accounts, Ghostwire will no doubt find a dedicated audience, but following up juggernaut releases like Horizon Forbidden West, and of course, the...
Poll Are You Playing Returnal's Ascension Update?
Returning to Returnal
Returnal got a big old update this week — a patch so significant that it has its own name. The so-called Ascension update (which is totally free if you own the game) adds online co-op play, as well as the Tower of Sisyphus, which is a new challenge mode. It's the kind of update that's designed to add value to Returnal as a...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Gran Turismo 7?
Podium place?
Gran Turismo 7's been out for a good couple of weeks now, and you know what that means! Sony's latest driving simulator was met with glowing reviews just before launch, but it's fair to say that the PlayStation exclusive has had to endure a rough road since. We gave the game a hugely positive 9/10 in our Gran Turismo 7 PS5 review,...
Poll Did You Buy Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin?
CHAOS is here
Arise, Jack Garland and your weird friends — the time has come to embark on a potentially hilarious adventure named Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. The action RPG is out now on PlayStation 5 and PS4, but as always, we want to know if you've snagged a copy. Honestly, it's hard to judge just how well Stranger of Paradise...
Poll Will You Buy Hogwarts Legacy?
Did State of Play convince you?
Roughly 18 months after its first reveal back at Sony's second PlayStation 5 presentation, Avalance Software has finally lifted the lid on Hogwarts Legacy with a State of Play showcase. We now know so much more about the magical game set before the Harry Potter era, including that it'll launch at the end of this year...
