I want to be Freeman
It’s been fizzling, hasn’t it? For just over two years, Sony did an incredible job keeping PlayStation VR supplied with top-notch software, but the stream has definitely slowed.

Hands On Shenmue III Is a Fantastic Sequel That's Been Frozen in Time
The follow-up fans wanted
It’s been almost 18 years since Shenmue II released on the Dreamcast in Europe, but its long-awaited sequel feels like it’s been preserved in a time (toy?) capsule during that time. This is the greatest compliment that could be paid Shenmue III, of course: look beyond the richly rendered Unreal Engine 4 visuals, and the...

Site News We're Looking for a Vibrant Video Producer to Lead Push Square to YouTube Glory
Hey everyone! It's [Your Name] from Push Square

We’ve been meddling with YouTube for several years now, and we’ve published some cracking content in that time. However, with the PlayStation 5 around the corner,...
Motions capture
I don't think Death Stranding and Red Dead Redemption 2 are easy games to get into. Both games offer their own unique web of gameplay mechanics and, at times, obtuse systems, and this can initially make them seem boring, frustrating, or convoluted. It's easy to say that any game isn't for everyone, but I think it's particularly...
