Guide Ghost Hunter - Where to Find All 50 Dead Ghosts in Destiny on PS4
Phantom breaker
Destiny stashes much of its lore in Grimoire Cards, so you won’t be jetting around the solar system searching for audio logs and pieces of intel. It does still have collectibles for you to find, however, in the form of fallen Ghosts. There are 50 of these to collect, which will all count towards the ‘Ghost Hunter’ Trophy...
Rumour Killzone Creator Guerrilla Games Finds a New Horizon in Fascinating PS4 Exclusive
Jurassic park
There’s no doubt that the Killzone franchise has divided gamers, but Guerrilla Games has never disappointed from a technical perspective. While it’s certainly failed to take advantage of the vast amount of lore created for its sci-fi series, every single one of its exclusive first-person shooters have been a spectacle – from the...
News Sony Lining Up Internet TV, TV, TV Launch for PlayStation 4
Watch this space
Ever since the announcement of the PlayStation 4, few could deny that Sony’s been incredibly smart. The platform holder cunningly sold its next-gen system on the strength of its games, but, like Microsoft, the company still wants to rule your living room with more general entertainment applications as well. It’s no real...
Review KickBeat: Special Edition (PlayStation 4)
Kick it into touch
KickBeat: Special Edition is the re-release of Zen Studios’ rhythm fighting game for the PlayStation 4. Now, you may be asking yourself what a rhythm fighting game actually is – or you may not be. Either way, picture a fusion of Mortal Kombat and DJ Hero, and you’ll more or less have the right idea. Sadly, this game sounds...

Review Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate (PlayStation Vita)
The handheld ultimatum
These days, publisher Koei Tecmo is all but forced to shove its Warriors games onto handheld consoles.

The spiritual successor to the somewhat divisive side scroller Senran Kagura Burst, this portable escapade appears to share...

Venus fly trap
According to Bungie, its latest game Destiny doesn’t, er, start until you've heard Paul McCartney sing.

We’re not ones to get our noses out of joint over a little titillation, but this OneChanbara Z2: Chaos booth at the Tokyo Game Show is a little too ridiculous for even our occasionally vulgar tastes. Sure, the game may be all about scantily clad women offing the undead – but did D3Publisher really have to...

Review Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution (PlayStation 3)
Ninja stars shine so bright
The Naruto: Ultimate Ninja series has been a rock for Japanese developer CyberConnect2. A franchise which began back in 2003 on the PlayStation 2, there have been numerous entries since, and it's impressive to think that not a single one has been overly disappointing. In fact, the series has only gotten better as the...

If you’re a regular reader of this site, Disney Infinity 2.0 probably isn’t placed anywhere near to the top of your PlayStation 4 wishlist.

No one can hear you scream here
Not content with releasing the scariest PlayStation 4 game to date, Hideo Kojima has followed up with a Silent Hills teaser trailer based on this year’s P.T. demo. The video shows a familiar corridor with more junctions this time, and we’re quickly treated to footage of decapitated heads, maggots, and, well,...

Caught off-garde
Sometimes the best way to succeed is to stick to the bread and butter of the genre, rather than mess about with weird gimmicks. In Fairy Fencer F, developed by Compile Heart, it aims to do just that in using fairies, furies, and fencers. Upon overhearing a rumour, our hungry hero Fang removes the sword in the stone to get his one...

TGS 2014 How Does Uncharted 4's Nathan Drake Sound in Japan?
Honestly, much like you'd expect
Perhaps unsurprisingly, there’ll be no new trailer for Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End at the Tokyo Game Show this week. However, you can watch its E3 cinematic with a Japanese dub, which is really weird. We reckon that Naughty Dog should have got Nolan North to learn Japanese and perform all of protagonist Nathan...
