  • News Peggle 2's Popping onto PS4 This October

    About time

    Popular puzzler pop-'em-up Peggle 2 will be partaking in some PlayStation 4 partying this October, the game's official Twitter account has revealed. For anyone who isn't familiar with the title, you may remember that it was announced as an Xbox console exclusive back at E3 2013, and what a memorably awkward announcement it was...

  • News Got a 12GB PS3? Sorry, You Can't Play Grand Theft Auto Online Anymore

    Unlucky number 12

    If you've got a 12GB PlayStation 3, then we've got some bad news for you. As if it wasn't bad enough that your console has barely enough room to download a decent collection of movies, or that you can only install a few games at a time before running out of space, it's now been revealed that Grand Theft Auto Online will no longer...

  • News Yay, PSN's Delayed Scheduled Maintenance Returns Today

    Don't worry, you'll be able to play online

    We suppose that we should give Sony credit for delaying the PlayStation Network’s previously planned maintenance after Sunday’s outage – even if it was only for a few days. The platform holder has announced that Monday’s postponed preservation period will now take place later today in both

  • News You'll Get These Extras for Purchasing Destiny on PS4

    Just to sweeten the sale

    It feels like we’ve been writing about Destiny for an eternity now, so thank heavens it’s due out in a couple of weeks. In order to pad out the time while you wait, Activision has released a new trailer showing off the title’s PlayStation exclusive content, which will remain restricted to Sony’s machines until Fall...

  • Review Tales of Xillia 2 (PlayStation 3)

    Cat scratch Ludger

    Tales of Xillia 2 is the sequel to last year's successful Tales of Xillia on the PlayStation 3. Much like the previous game, it’s charming, wonderful, and rewarding all at the same time. The worlds of Rieze Maxia and Elympios return as well as most of the gameplay from the original, and being the 14th title in the Tales series,...

  • Review inFAMOUS: First Light (PlayStation 4)

    Fetching

    The problem with inFAMOUS: Second Son was that it ended too quickly: Sucker Punch’s supercharged pseudo sequel was over in a flash, leaving many of its fans wanting more. inFAMOUS: First Light attempts to solve that problem, recharging with a new playable character, storyline, and some fresh powers – but does it burn brightly, or...

  • Review Hotline Miami (PlayStation 4)

    Miami Visceral

    With the stylish murder simulator Hotline Miami first hitting the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita in 2013, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the darling indie title has already achieved critical acclaim and a cult following of devout 80s obsessed adrenaline junkies. Just over a year later, the gory title sees a re-release on the...

  • Review Trials Fusion: Empire of the Sky (PlayStation 4)

    Looking up

    If there was one thing wrong with Trials Fusion, it was that there wasn’t enough chances to fall tens of thousands of feet to your death. The fans have spoken: sometimes smashing your 120MPH bike into a brick wall just doesn’t feel dangerous enough. Don’t worry, though, as Ubisoft has heard your cries for a little more distance from...

  • Review CounterSpy (PlayStation 4)

    From Russia with regret

    CounterSpy is a strange beast. Developed by fledgling studio Dynamighty, it's an ambitious game that strives to bridge the gap between 2D and 3D stealth, while also attempting to juggle randomly generated levels. And while it plays host to some truly unique mechanics, and consistently brilliant presentation, it's...

  • News Is Horror Sequel Silent Hills a PS4 Exclusive?

    Scream in silence

    The whole Rise of the Tomb Raider mess appears to have caused some confusion in the console exclusives space, so let us teach you a very valuable lesson: if Sony doesn’t scream ‘Only on PlayStation’ after revealing a project, then it’s going to end up elsewhere. Firms may use doublespeak to confuse their message – we saw...

  • News This Is What Shenmue Would Look Like on the PS4

    Wished we could play some

    Despite it being one of the most requested sequels of all time, SEGA seems utterly uninterested in making Shenmue III. While that’s to be expected given the dismal sales of the first two games, though, we had hoped that the Japanese publisher would have

  • News PS4 Title No Man's Sky Is Probably the Biggest Game Ever Made

    The infinite frontier

    It's safe to say that we're quite excited about No Man's Sky here at Push Square. After all, we did award it our coveted Best of E3 award. Arguably the most intriguing thing about the game is its vast open world, which by all accounts is preposterously big. However, until a recent interview with

    Missing in action

    It’s rare for us to write a story about what wasn’t announced during a PlayStation press conference – after all, we typically have our work cut out just trying to cover what was announced. However, the PlayStation Vita’s complete lack of presence during the Japanese giant’s Gamescom 2014 media briefing today definitely...

    Former Famitsu boss teases big TGS reveal

    It’s probably a bit cruel to be talking about the next major gaming convention before the current one has even got underway, but it seems like Sony may be stockpiling a seriously big announcement for the Tokyo Game Show in late September. According to Hirokazu Hamamura, the ex-editor-in-chief of Famitsu...

    We see many video game collector's editions, peddling limited edition swag – only to end up in the bargain bin six months later. This won't be the case, however, with the super special PlayStation 4 'Hulkamania' edition of WWE 2K15 this October. Advertised as a real supply limited package, this set features collectibles...

    Heartwarming hardware

    You may remember a story that we ran a few days ago about a decidedly colourful PlayStation 4 with an important message. Dubbed the 'GayStation 4', this colourful custom SKU was constructed to coincide with the Stockholm Pride festival, and was planned to be auctioned off in order to raise money for Swedish charity RFSL. Well,...

    SEGA may not be very good at anything else these days, but it sure knows how to pump out new Yakuza titles in Japan. Despite historical spin-off Yakuza Ishin launching less than six months ago, the publisher is now preparing for the announcement of a new franchise foray for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 – and you’ll...

    Nothing is sacred

    Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, while not what you’d call a big success, still managed to garner quite a following among a certain set of gamers, even in spite of a few rough edges. Those that did end up sinking hour after hour into the action role playing game really appreciated its massive open world, extensive loot system, and huge...
