News Sony's Still Got Plenty More To Announce
You'd be forgiven for thinking that last week's GamesCom event might mark the end of a three-four month long announcement bombardment from Sony -- but while you'd be forgiven, you'd also be wrong
Sony Europe's Andrew House has revealed that there "more we've yet to share"; they're probably due at next month's Tokyo Game Show event. Above...
News EA Readying "Several Announcements" For Its Tokyo Showcase
Announcements of announcements are never fun, and with GamesCom just out of the way, we didn't want to come across greedy by talking about new video games we've no idea about
But this was too good to skip over. EA's promising "several announcements" for its TGS Tokyo Showcase; and Tokyo means Japan — the home-land of Shinji Mikami and...
Feature What A Great Week For PlayStation -- "Twiggy" The Push Square Opinionator
I've got absolutely nothing to moan about
This has been an excellent week for the PlayStation brand; so good, in fact, that even reports of a jailbreak weren't able to subdue the mood. I predicted before GamesCom that it would be a low-key show - but Sony's found their stomping ground. Last year Sony dominated the European event with the headline...

Review Fly Fu (PlayStation Minis)
There's a bizarre and creepy charm to Fly Fu's presentation, but repetitive gameplay takes much of the sheen off the game's novelty

News That New Atlus Game, Catherine, Is WEIRD!
We thought the concept art that dropped out of this week's Famitsu for Atlus' new PS3 project, Catherine, looked a bit strange

GamesCom 2010 Gran Turismo 5 Injects Some Car-PG, Gets B-Spec Campaign
We all know about Gran Turismo's A-Spec career path
It's the driving simulator portion of the game, the section where you pick a car and race it. But what of Gran Turismo 5's new B-Spec mode? It's basically a "racing simulation RPG". In B-Spec you are not the driver, but are the voice in the driver's ear. You watch races from the...

Before we did this PushSquare lark, we used to lock ourselves in dark rooms with Cubase and Reason trying to create the perfect pop-song
