Talking Point Is the PS4's Final Year of Relevance in Danger of Becoming Overhyped?
Let's all calm down for a second
Let's not beat around the bush here. Besides Death Stranding, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and Resident Evil 2, 2019 has been a poor year for major video game releases on PlayStation 4.

Opinion Maligned PlayStation Chief Jim Ryan Is Silencing His Critics
Pipe down
PlayStation boss Jim Ryan is not a pantomime villain, but that’s what he’s been portrayed to be. The executive – guilty of toeing the company line on cross-play, for example – has long been the butt of enthusiast gamers’ jokes. His biggest slip-up? An off-the-cuff remark about the original PSone Gran Turismo playable next to the...

Poll Should Sony Work with Hideo Kojima Again?
What's next for Kojima Productions?
Death Stranding is out today, bringing a conclusion to one of the most prestigious partnerships in games.

Nevertheless, the...

Stephen's quest for treasure has left him sea-sick

When autosave isn't an option
How do you save the game manually in Red Dead Redemption 2? How do you load a game in RDR2?

Hands On Nioh 2 Could Be the Toughest Souls-Like to Date
Prepare to die
We're not ones to boast, but we sort of have to be pretty good at video games in order to do our jobs properly. We've managed to beat every Dark Souls entry there is, Bloodborne, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice -- you name it and we've probably clocked it. However, Nioh 2's open beta just kicked our arse. Playable for the next 10 days, Koei...

Cyberpunk'd
When it comes to games that I can't wait to get my sweaty palms on, Cyberpunk 2077 is number one on the list.

Poll Will You Be Buying Death Stranding?
Life or death
Well, the Death Stranding reviews are here and the game's sitting quite pretty with a Metascore of 84, but not everyone is as enamoured with Hideo Kojima's latest as we are. We've awarded Death Stranding a very rare 10/10 here on Push Square, but the title's received a handful of less positive critiques elsewhere. The question then, is...

Round Up Death Stranding Reviews Show Hideo Kojima's Latest Is a Divisive Experience
Opinions, opinions
Death Stranding reviews have arrived, and as you might expect, opinions are pretty split.

Interview Dying Light 2 Dev Talks Free DLC, Narrative Choices, and PS5
Good night, good luck
With a release window of Spring 2020, Dying Light 2 could be considered a game that's floating a little bit under the radar. It'll launch around the same time as Cyberpunk 2077 and The Last of Us: Part II following its unexpected delay, but that doesn't mean this open-world zombie survival simulator is an undertaking you should...
Soapbox Sony's Made Four of the Five Best-Selling Home Consoles of All Time, And That's Insane
Sammy's staggered by PlayStation's statistics
There’s life left in the PlayStation 4, but it’s already outpaced the PSone’s eye-watering 102.49 million units install base and established itself as the second best-selling home console ever made. It’s got some work to do before it catches the PlayStation 2’s mind-blowing 155 million units,...

Sammy explains why exclusives still matter to Sony
The announcement of Death Stranding for the PC has sent shockwaves through select hardcore communities, despite the title technically being confirmed for computers back when Hideo Kojima signed his contract with Sony. It is, I suppose, an odd situation: this is a game trademarked by the Japanese...

Talking Point Does Death Stranding's Non-Exclusivity Matter?
Blowing off Steam
The greatest will-they-won’t-they saga in gaming finally has a conclusion: Death Stranding will release on the PC next year.

Poll Should Sony Follow Xbox and Offer a PS5 Upgrade Option?
Stepping up
Current-gen console sales are slowing, as evidenced by the latest batch of NPD reports in the United States. This is entirely natural, of course: Sony’s already said that the PlayStation 5 is coming next holiday, so there’ll be a sizeable percentage of potential buyers waiting for the new hardware to drop. Microsoft, however, has an...
Soapbox The Outer Worlds Highlights Just How Far Fallout Has Fallen
What could have been
This week, The Outer Worlds was released. Obsidian's sci-fi role-playing game may not push the genre forward in any radical way, but it is an excellent example of what's possible when player choice is promoted above all else. I'm busy playing through The Outer Worlds for the third time in about as many weeks, and I'm still...

Modern warfare
After a couple of weeks off, your humble host is back to post the latest WAYP. That means that it’s a desperately short edition, because apparently no one cares to respond to Sammy’s requests.
