Who Would Win Wednesdays Aiden Pearce vs. Max Payne
Round 18
With Push Square member ztpayne7 calling last week's edition of Who Would Win Wednesdays "probably the strangest matchup I've seen here", we've decided to scale things back a little and put together a fight between two more recognisable characters for today's match. That's not to say, of course, that our previous duel was duff, despite its...

Talking Point Is Watch Dogs Proof That You Can Have Too Much of a Good Thing?
Greedy guts
There’s no shortage of gamer clichés capable of sending groans through the office each time that we encounter them, but this editor has a particularly vehement distaste to the vapid criticisms pertaining to game length.

Video What Do You Get in Watch Dogs' Limited Edition PS4 Package?
We hack one open to find out
Sure, the North American version of the Watch Dogs: Limited Edition is a little pricey at $129.99, but as far as Collector’s Editions go, it’s a really nice one. This is a genuinely well presented set, which is much better than we were anticipating. The 9” statue – which is pivotal to the package – feels...

ctOK
We’ve been watching Watch Dogs for a while. When we checked out a behind-the-scenes demo of the ambitious sandbox last year, we hinted that the hands-off nature of the presentation didn’t bode well for the open world escapade.

Out This Week Watch Dogs, Lemmings Touch, Ace Combat: Infinity
Connected chaos
We sincerely hope that you’ve defeated the Nazis in Wolfenstein: The New Order and rediscovered your voice in Transistor, because the PlayStation release calendar is showing no signs of slowing down ahead of next month’s E3 event in Los Angeles.

Talking Point How Have This Week's Delays Affected Your Anticipation for PS4?
Hype killer
It’s ironic that the week that Sony opted to launch its Perfect Day commercial, the PlayStation 4 has suffered its most Imperfect Week since its announcement. It’s perhaps a testament to the Japanese giant’s flawless approach to the next generation that the setbacks have taken so long to materialise, but

Reaction Watch Dogs' Delay Is a Shame, but PS4 Won't Lose Connection with Consumers
Off the hook
Ubisoft called in some unexpected news earlier today when it delayed Watch Dogs into the vague window of spring 2014. The Chicago-based sandbox excursion had been set to tap into systems next month, but now it will be locked down until next year. The shock decision will have a negative impact on each of the major home consoles’...

First Impressions Going Underground With Ubisoft's Watch_Dogs
We go hands-on at Ubisoft's Digital Days 2013
One of many blockbuster titles in Ubisoft’s stable adopting their second screen experience initiative, the potential for Watch_Dogs’ iOS "H_ide" app is high — and in a game where you can hack everything, you’re not quite as unhackable as you might think. At Ubisoft’s Digital Days 2013 event in...
