Feature Could Eye Pet Expand The Playstation 3's Audience? - "Twiggy" The Push Square Opinionator
Eye Pet is a massive risk
It's possible we could be playing Eight Days or The Getaway 3 this weekend. Sony pursued Eye Pet - an innovative implementation of augmented reality - instead. Given the platform, and its audience, Eight Days would probably sell better. And that shows just what a risk Eye Pet is. But could it expand the audience? When...

News Progression Is Key In Assassin's Creed II According To New Dev Diary
We had no idea that Assassin's Creed II plots the character of Ezio over a series of 30 or so years
In fact, we can't really think of many games that develop a character over a length of time. That's interesting, because if done well we should see the progression of the protagonist as his life unfolds. The game's not far away now and we're starting...
News James Cameron's Avatar: The Game Launching On December 1st
Looks like Avatar is going to be one of the last games we review this year, as it's just been noted by Ubisoft that the game will launch on December 1st
It'll be on PS3 and PSP. The movie doesn't actually launch until the 16th, so it'll give potential fans of what we assume is going to be a franchise, plenty of time to get engaged into the universe...

News Vempire Launches Today In The USA, Gets A Bit Cheaper In The UK
We rather liked Impressionware's PSP Minis title Vempire
In fact, the only real thing we disliked was the somewhat steep price point. That's now come down in the UK, settling at a more reasonable £2.49 rather than the initial £3.99. It's also worth noting that the game will be available in the USA today as part of their Playstation Store update...

News Final Fantasy XIII Will Be Completely Install Free
Did anyone expect Final Fantasy XIII to be completely free of installation? We didn't

News Army Of Two: The 40th Day Introduces Extraction Mode
Every shooter needs a Gears Of War-esque horde mode
So check out what's been announced for Army Of Two: The 40th Day — Extraction. Which is essentially horde mode. The mode, strangely, comes as a bonus for GameStop preorders but, worry not, everyone will have access to the mode 30 days after the game's release. It's kind of a weird idea, but the...

It's the Tokyo Motor Show this week
And of course, Gran Turismo 5 has a massive presence. Sony's premium racing franchise is due in March next year, and GTPlanet have scouted out some off-screen videos of the game in action.

Heavy Rain is going to be a dark, mature game
Not dark in the immature sense. No, Heavy Rain isn't interested in exploding heads and blood littered corridors. Heavy Rain is interested in genuine mature gameplay. Of course, in the video game medium, maturity is often stilted. And that has us worried about Heavy Rain. Even the slightest tweaks to the...
Review Mushroom Wars (PlayStation 3)
Everything about Mushroom Wars is minimalistic

Chances are you know all about Prison Break on the Telly

News The Saboteur Has An Excellent Art Style
It's kinda snook up on us, but did anyone else realise The Saboteur had such an awesome art style

Review NBA Live 10 (PlayStation 3)
NBA Live 10 looks great and plays with refined vigour
It's not without its problems, but if basketball is your thing - there's plenty here to enjoy. Having somewhat lost its mojo in recent years, NBA Live 10 is a fairly big step forward for the franchise. Graphically the game has come a decent length, with player animation vastly improved, making...
Review Vempire (PSP Minis) (PlayStation Portable)
Simplistic in almost every-regard; Vempire is a bright and buoyant bout of match-four with a price-tag just 200-pence short of excellent
Switch the quadrant to match the squares. It's a mechanic popularised by Bejewelled and borrowed by Impressionware's victorian gothic themed PSP Minis debut. Vempire is certainly not deceiving to be any more than...

Review Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising (PlayStation 3)
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is a queer beast
As a thoroughly realistic military shooter, it achieves everything it sets out to achieve. But next to the brash set-pieces of Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare, it feels sterile without the smoke and mirrors. Be assured though, if it's realism you seek, Operation Flashpoint will gratefully satisfy...
