News This PS Vita RPG May Look Harmless, But It's for Mature Players Only
Well, sort of
It’s not often that a Japanese role-playing game obtains a ‘Mature’ rating from the ESRB, but that’s exactly what the North American classifications board has awarded PlayStation Vita dungeon crawler Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars. While the Nintendo 3DS iteration is the only version to be examined thus far, it...

News Sony: PlayStation 4 to Become Our Main Focus in Japan
Firm to turn its attention to its freshest flagship format

Unfortunately, you quickly remember that you've just dropped a truckload of cash on the shiny black box, so immediately...
News Japan May Be Handheld Land, But It Still Wants the PS4
Greatness awaits
There’s a reason that Sony is using plenty of ammunition to promote the PlayStation Vita in Japan, and that’s because the region can’t get enough of handhelds. The astronomical sales of the Nintendo 3DS compared to the muted numbers attached to the Wii U and PlayStation 3 show how trends have changed – but there may yet be...

Review The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief (PlayStation 3)
Poirot Click
Adventure games and mystery novel plots go together like butlers and random acts of homicide. There’s nothing better than a good whodunit, especially when you’re part of the action, neck-deep in clues and yelling at innocent bystanders in the hope that one of them knows something. The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief is a decent...
News inFAMOUS: Second Son to Illustrate the Power of the PS4 at GDC 2014
Great responsibility
It’s probably a good thing that the PlayStation 4 isn’t a superhero, as we reckon that the supercharged device would resemble more than a match for inFAMOUS: Second Son’s plucky protagonist Delsin Rowe. A handful of launch titles have already demonstrated how much power lead architect Mark Cerny's packed into the next...

Contrary to popular belief, Mars isn’t just a red rock populated by little more than swirling dust – it’s actually the home to a bunch of intergalactic space battles, as evidenced by these brand new Destiny screenshots. Deployed earlier today in order to accompany this week’s much smaller set, the images focus on the...

As a result of the harrowing figures, armchair analysts all over the web have taken to message boards and online forums to...
News Lara Croft Will Not Lament Lost Frames in PS4's Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition
Re-release will run like clockwork
If there’s one thing that intrepid archaeologist Lara Croft hates more than busted antiques and those bleeders that inhabit the spooky setting of Yamatai, it’s an inconsistent framerate. Crystal Dynamics’ enjoyable Tomb Raider reboot for the PlayStation 3 served up a likeable slice of survival action, but it...
News This Patent for a New PS Move Controller Is Giving Us a Headache
LEGO meets motion control?
There's nothing quite like a totally insane PlayStation Move patent to get your blood pumping, and today we've unearthed a real doozy.

Make some room
Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F 2nd, the sequel to SEGA’s strangely popular rhythm game, may be packed with dainty melodies and twee vocaloid voices – but there’s nothing elegant about its monstrous PlayStation 3 peripheral. The optional Hori manufactured extra – which rivals the first boss from Team ICO classic Shadow of the...
News PlayStation Now Is Not the PS4 Backward Compatibility Fix You're Craving
It's a sort of alternative, though
It was always going to be a challenge for Sony to offer backward compatibility on the PlayStation 4. Its previous console’s CELL architecture is more complex than a Leo Tolstoy novel, meaning that replicating it on its new machine was probably never truly on the agenda. There had been some hope, however, that the...

News Sony: You'll Be Hearing About PS4 Racer DriveClub's Release Date Soon
We're wheely sick of waiting
We love DriveClub here at Push Square. That adoration's mostly due to its gorgeous visuals and unbridled potential, but also because the kerfuffle surrounding its delay is giving us mountains of material to write about. If you're not up to speed, a recent ESRB rating suggested that the game will be starting its engine
News Japanese Sales Charts: PS Vita Keeps Plodding Along
Handheld keeping its head above water
The holidays have come to a conclusion in Japan, but the PlayStation Vita has held on fairly well.

Talking Point Do Sony's Family Franchises Have a Future on PS4?
Eye to eye
Nintendo fans may try to convince you otherwise, but Sony was the first to unlock the casual game market. Its competitor may have found global success with the motion controlled Wii, but the Japanese giant had already spent several years marketing brands such as Buzz and EyeToy to a more mainstream audience by that point. However, with...

News Vita Exclusive Toukiden: The Age of Demons Summons a Four Minute Animated Trailer
Get a slice of this
Sometimes there's no better way to begin a game than to barrage the player with a nicely animated movie – preferably one that's backed by some catchy Japanese rock.

News Sony Wants to Keep Your PS4 Controller's Light Turned On
Power cut
We suppose that it’s a testament to just how well the PlayStation 4’s been built that the DualShock 4’s light panel is a peeve at all, but it currently sits somewhere near the top of next generation gamers’ grievances. For many, the mandatory strip is an irritation, draining the controller’s battery life and prompting some...

The hunger game
Nature is beautiful. We observe it from pictures and videos from the safety of our home. We get up close to it on vacations through tour guides and hikes.
