Swearing an oath of loyalty to PlayStation with the arrival of the PS4, our resident video-maker and Irn-Bru loving Scot prides himself as an expert in modern-day Sony. However, eight playthroughs of The Last Of Us later, and no Platinum to show for it, will forever be his greatest shame.

  • News Everything You Need to Know About Apex Legends Newcomer, Newcastle

    Getting Defensive

    Apex Legends is about to introduce its 21st legend in the form of Newcastle. This has been a character rumoured for the longest time, and even included in a hefty leak some months ago. But now we are just days away from the launch of Season 13, Saviours, which hopes that Newcastle will slot in nicely while mixing up the meta. But...

  • Video Why Prey Is Arkane's Best Game

    Even better than Dishonored?

    Prey (2017) just turned five this week, proving once more that time is a vortex. However, we saw this as a fantastic opportunity to once again remind the masses that Prey is bloody brilliant. This first-person sci-fi horror has never quite been held in the same regard to its Arkane brethren, such as Dishonored, or more...

    The new season of Apex Legends is steadily creeping up on us, and the wait just got all the more excruciating thanks to its first trailer.

    A quiet start to the apocalypse

    Telltale’s The Walking Dead is 10 years old this week (welp!) and we’ve been reminiscing on its fantastic post-apocalyptic story. Within a span of just five episodes, players around the world came to love the wholesome father/daughter relationship between survivors Lee and Clementine. There are a lot of memorable...

  • Video Is Live Service Really the Way Forward for PlayStation?

    Are things always better with friends?

    Sony has always prided itself as a harbourer of high quality single player experiences. Anyone that is even remotely familiar with the word 'PlayStation' will know about the titles synonymous with it, such as The Last Of Us, God of War, and Ghost of Tsushima. However, Sony's reputation as a single-player...

  • Video How to Change PS5 Cover Plates

    Gaming with an extra dash of colour

    How do you change PS5 cover plates? The PlayStation 5 is certainly a head turner with its rather out-there design. However, more often than not it's the contrasting black and white colour scheme that rubs players the wrong way the most. Whether it's messing with your feng shui or you just didn’t like a giant...

  • Video What's Going on with The Last of Us 2's PS5, PS4 Multiplayer Mode?

    Forget Part 3, where's Factions 2?

    The Last Of Us Factions was one of the biggest multiplayer surprises to ever grace the PlayStation platform. The fact that you can still easily find filled servers on PS4 a full eight years after the The Last of Us Remastered launched on the PS4 is a testament to its unique fusion of traditional multiplayer and...

  • Video Is Apex Legends PS5 Worth the Wait?

    Time to Respawn
