News Sony Streamlining PlayStation Mobile Ratings System
Easy peasy
Publishing a game on PlayStation Mobile won’t require developers to go through the same ratings rigmarole as normal console releases. Sony has devised a new system which allows studios to self-report content on a submission form. That saves the time and overhead required for a ratings board to check the content manually – meaning the...

Review Double Dragon: Neon (PlayStation 3)
Hurry Up, Broseph!
It isn’t often that you get to use the words “franchise”, “80s”, and “reboot” in the same sentence these days, without feeling a little bit like you’re constructing a joke and that the developer of the title in question is going to provide the punchline. In an era where popstars are turning up on Blu-ray and DVD in...
News Soul Sacrifice Looks Absolutely Stunning in Motion
Hopeless wretch
It may not have the brand power of Monster Hunter, but that’s not stopping Soul Sacrifice from looking absolutely incredible. Sony has released two direct-feed trailers from the Tokyo Game Show demonstrating the four-player action title's spells, weapons, character customisation and controls. They’re not the most riveting...
Reaction What Sony's TGS Tells Us About PlayStation's Future
Through the looking glass
Sony shocked attendees at its Tokyo Game Show press conference earlier this week by announcing the PlayStation 3 Super Slim. Unfortunately, the corrugated console itself was not the reason for open-mouthed attendees – that accolade was reserved for its flummoxing price-point. Indeed, as opposed to positioning the aging...
News Namco Bandai's Still Making Digimon Games for PSP
New title out next year
One of the PlayStation Vita’s biggest problems in Japan is its inability to properly outmuscle the PSP. Sony’s Tokyo Game Show press conference earlier this week proved that a lot of developers are still putting faith in the platform holder’s previous handheld, with most third-party titles coming to both of the...
News Sony Bullish About PS3 and Vita Connectivity
Wii U, what?
Sony’s John Koller believes cross-controller connectivity between the PlayStation 3 and Vita is just as compelling as the Wii U.

News Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time Steals Your Wallet on 5th February
Pay day
European gamers will have to wait at least a month until they can get their hands on Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. Sony has attached a 5th February release date to the light-fingered platformer in North America – and opted for an ambiguous March window in Europe. Honestly, we thought the days of waiting for flag-ship first-party titles were...
News The Last Guardian Is Absolutely, Categorically Still Alive
Developer confirms
In what’s quickly becoming a video game convention tradition, Sony has confirmed that The Last Guardian is still in development.

News Capcom Resurrects Dragon's Dogma with Major Expansion
Awaken
Dragon’s Dogma was a pretty big success for Capcom in Japan, so it’s perhaps unsurprising that it has lined up a major expansion for release next year. The pack – dubbed Dark Arisen – will allow players to carry over their save data from the original game. And that, unfortunately, is pretty much everything we know. In the meantime,...
News Sleeping Dogs Awakens with Bumper DLC Schedule
Wei more than expected
Sleeping Dogs is already a pretty meaty game – seriously, so many pork buns – but Square Enix has pledged to expand the experience through October with a slew of new DLC.

Thursday20th Sep 2012
Review SunFlowers (PlayStation Vita)
Bright spark
The Game Atelier knows a thing or two about putting together a visually pleasing experience. The developer’s previous endeavour The Flying Hamster served up a kitschy twist on the classic bullet hell shooter. Armed with acorns as opposed to artillery, the agonisingly undervalued PlayStation Mini prompted an experience able to warm the...
News Kingdom Hearts Is Finally Getting Remixed in HD for PS3
Calm down
After years of Chris Crocker-esque pleading from fans of the franchise, Kingdom Hearts is finally coming to the PlayStation 3.

Calculated chaos
PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale’s character roster is finally starting to come together – and this Tokyo Game Show trailer acknowledges that with a madcap 90-second video showing everyone in action.

News E.X. Troopers Dazzles with Tokyo Game Show Trailer
Don your dancing shoes
Capcom’s decision to not bring the brilliant E.X. Troopers overseas is getting harder and harder to take. The cel-shaded Lost Planet spin-off has a really slick style to it that’s evidenced in buckets by this campy Tokyo Game Show trailer. The video shows off the game’s combat and exploratory action, all set to the...

News Treyarch Teases Black Ops 2's Zombies Mode... Again
Get on with it
It turns out that yesterday’s “thrilling” footage of an old black and white television was just a warm up for today’s more pronounced promotion. Treyarch is gearing up for the reveal of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2’s zombies mode – but it’s certainly taking its time. This brand new video focuses on a rickety old bus that...

News Metal Gear Rising Demo Includes Free Copy of ZoE HD
Couldn't resist
We know it’s the oldest “joke” in the book, but we still remember when people purchased the original Zone of the Enders just to play the demo for Metal Gear Solid 2.

You’ll be able to download the title from 25th September in North...
News Soul Sacrifice Forfeits Original Winter Release Date
Battle of the beasts
Sony’s Tokyo Game Show press conference wasn’t all good news.

Review Jet Set Radio (PlayStation 3)
Get your skates on
It’s genuinely hard to believe that Jet Set Radio is 12 years old.

News Dead Island: Riptide's Debut Trailer Is Simple But Effective
Everlasting love
It was always going to be difficult for Techland to match the announcement trailer that essentially ensured the original Dead Island’s commercial success.

Review Transformers: Fall of Cybertron (PlayStation 3)
Got the touch?
When it was first announced, 2010’s Transformers: War for Cybertron seemed about as appealing as a collision with a planet eating asteroid named Unicron.
