Review Farming Simulator 15 (PlayStation 4)
You reap what you sow
Farming Simulator 15 feels like work – and we intend that as a backhanded compliment, by the way. Giants Software's agricultural adventure has been at the butt of many a joke since its inception in 2007, but despite the finger pointing, there is something curiously compelling about the Swiss studio's soil turning title...

Elsewhere, the new Need for Speed was announced, we...

News Red Dead Redemption Studio Targeting State of the Art PS4 Graphics
Straight to the Wild, Wild West
It's been a whopping five years since John Marston... Well, yeah, we won't spoil what happens – but you really should have played Red Dead Redemption by now. A sequel from Rockstar San Diego has always seemed likely, and fortunately, it looks like the studio's really knuckling down now with its next release...
News What Will Sony Announce at E3 2015? Let the Bonus Round Talk It Out
Almost time to make your PlayStation predictions
Ah, the Bonus Round – a sure sign that E3 is right around the corner. Industry hotshot Geoff Keighley has been hosting press conference prediction panels since the beginning of time itself, and this year is no different. We'll obviously have our own build-up to the Japanese giant's major media...
News Mega Man 8 Will Be Coming to the PlayStation Store Next Week
Only in North America, though
You know your game has awful voice acting when even your PR guys make mention of it. Yes, the infamous dialogue of Mega Man 8 is making its way to the PlayStation Store on 27th May, along with the rest of the game. There's no word on a price just yet, but if past trends are anything to go by, it'll probably be under...

Talking Point What Freebies Would You Like in June's PlayStation Plus Update?
Take your pick
If all goes to plan, June's big PlayStation Plus update should be announced at some point next week. Indeed, the content will likely roll out on 2nd June in North America and 3rd June in Europe, so we'd expect Sony to outline the offering on this coming Wednesday or Thursday – although it has left things until the last minute in the...
News Evidence of Batman: Arkham PS4 Remaster Appears
Time to play a little game
Riddle us this: would you buy a Batman: Arkham Anthology for the PlayStation 4? We heard rumours regarding the hypothetical remaster earlier in the year, when the collection was "confirmed" by IGN Italy's supposed sources. However, now we have a little more evidence to feed into the Bat Computer, as one
News This Was Supposed to Be Your Very First Look at Bloodborne
Beastly stuff
Sony's making announcements later than ever, and Bloodborne is one example of that. The game was first revealed at E3 2014, and launched less than a year later. However, the platform holder had originally planned to reveal it earlier, under the name Project Beast. Unfortunately for the firm, this codename event
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 69
Cry us a Rivia
It's the end of another lively week here at Push Square Towers, which means that it's time for your regular dose of WAYP.

Guide How to Make Unlimited Money in The Witcher 3 on PS4
Cash back
Money makes the world go round – and that's true even if you're a badass Witcher such as our white haired friend, Geralt. You're going to need copious amounts of cash if you intend to get by in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on the PlayStation 4 – especially if you've decided to, ahem, "test" yourself on the upper difficulty tiers. Of...
News So, Looks Like Sony's Already Working on the PS5
A whole new world
While the PlayStation 4 is likely to be around for many years yet, we'd expect Sony to be starting to think about the future right about now. It's already set out its stall with the likes of PlayStation Now, but with Internet infrastructure not quite up to speed, we suspect that there'll be at least one more traditional console...
News No, This Is Not Proof of Crash Bandicoot PS4
We wished it was
This time every year the Internet goes stir crazy over rumours that make very little logical sense. We saw glimpses of that earlier in the week with Shenmue, but this Crash Bandicoot image is even worse. Once again, it revolves around a fuzzy photograph of a projector screen featuring everyone's favourite Converse-wearing rodent...
Review Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare - Ascendance (PlayStation 4)
Fastest food
You know that the world has really hit the skids when zombies take over a fast food restaurant, the last bastion of all that is good in our western society. The blank stares, the lust for blood, the senseless grunting – all of that is gone, replaced by hordes of the undead. In the latest slice of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare DLC,...

News Japanese Game Sales Hit a Whole New Low Last Week
The beginning of the end
Japan may be responsible for our love affair with video games, but the country is quickly going off the consoles that it helped to popularise. You may remember the dire Media Create figures that we posted earlier in the week – well, they are worse than you think. Much worse. According to the organisation, last week's...
News Of Course Persona 4: Dancing All Night's Getting Cross-Dressing DLC
Gear up, guys
There's a point in Persona 4 where Yasogami High School hosts a sort of beauty pageant. The title's female characters show up on stage in bikinis, but in a last minute twist, the main male members of the cast are signed up for the event's cross-dressing competition. The whole thing results in a rather humorous scene in which the...
News Sony Hypes PS4 as the World's Most Powerful Console in Commercial
Strong as an ox
Similarly to yesterday's best games montage, Sony has dropped a new European commercial boasting that the PlayStation 4 is the world's most powerful console. It includes footage of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Bloodborne, and Batman: Arkham Knight, so it's clearly trying to capitalise on current releases. To be fair, the format does...

It'll launch on Sony's newest console with all of the...
News Europe's Getting Atlus JRPG Lost Dimension One Month Late
Could be worse
Good old Atlus and its insistence to always be late to the European party.

News Sony Files a Trademark for a Game and TV Show Named The Player
What could it be?
Trademarks always start popping up in May, as companies register product names ahead of the big E3 convention in June. And as is the case every year, Sony's getting in on the act. GameSpot has uncovered an American trademark for something called The Player which has been filed by Sony Pictures Television. The interesting thing abo

Interstellar soup seller
Q-Games' PixelJunk series has always had its own quirky style, and while the developer's experiments may not have always hit the mark, they've at worst been worth a look. With the company's latest game Nom Nom Galaxy landing on PlayStation 4 – after hitting Steam Early Access last year – it's time to find out what the...
News CD Projekt Red Hoping to Find The Witcher 3 PS4 Framerate and Font Size Fix
New patch in production
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's text is so tiny that you may need to push your nose right up against your television screen in order to read it. Look, this scribe may need to wear glasses while operating the computer, but that's more of an eyestrain thing – the reality is that this game's font is abnormally small, and we're not...
News E3 2015 Will Be Super Crazy Good, Says Sony
You would say that
"Extra! Extra! Sony employee in E3 2015 hype shocker! Read all about it!" Y'all know that we're not fans of corporate bullcrap here at Push Square, but we suppose that this story needs sharing. PlayStation Asia employee Naito Arata has hinted that the Japanese giant's presence at next month's gaming convention will be "super crazy...
News All the Best Games Are on PS4, According to Sony
They are pretty good, to be fair
There are quite a few blockbusters heading your way on PlayStation 4 over the next year or so.

And in truth, it's not a...

Oh, and it's not to be...

Flippin' heck, Warner Bros – all you needed to do was splice together a couple of clips of the Caped Crusader kicking goons in the gob and your Batman: Arkham Knight commercial would be complete. So, what in the name of the Joker is this? The commercial has leaked onto YouTube today and is coming from an unofficial channel so is...
News Bloodborne Will Be Purified with Patch 1.04 Next Week

News PS Vita Exclusive Net High Makes Flame Wars a Mechanic
You, sir, are a liar
There's a good chance that while you've never been in a real fight, you've probably engaged in the odd flame war from time to time.

News Samurai Warriors 4-II's First English Trailer Introduces a New Hero to the Chaos
The crimson crusader
According to history, Naomasa Li was apparently a bit of a badass. One of Ieyasu Tokugawa's most renowned retainers, he led a unit known as the 'Red Devils' - a nickname brought about by their crimson armour. Although it's thought that his death was mostly due to a wound that he received during one of Japan's most decisive...
News Stand Under Rory McIlroy PGA Tour's Umbrella! 'Ella! 'Ella!
Ey! Ey! Ey!
We finally agree with EA Sports on something: collector's editions are getting predictable. After all, we don't think that anyone wants a statue of Northern Irish ace Rory McIlroy with their copy of, er, Rory McIlroy PGA Tour on the PlayStation 4. An umbrella, though? Well, that's not only useful, but it's allowed us to quote Rihanna,...

Aw, hell no
Dying Light has proved a much bigger success than anyone involved must have expected.

It's perhaps not overly surprising that Polish developer Techland is putting its...

News The DualShock 4's Touchpad Is Your Pal in The Witcher 3 on PS4
Geralt's best friend
Ever since the PlayStation 4's announcement, the touchpad on the DualShock 4 has seemed like a bit of a gimmick. It's been employed, mostly, as a replacement for the select button since launch, but The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has a few more uses for the responsive rectangle that you may not be aware of. Tapping it will, obviously,...

News The Order: 1886 Ain't Commanding Antique Prices on the PS4
Exclusive is Europe's latest Deal of the Week
Since an early age, this author has found the very idea of 'antiques' baffling. Call us common, but it strikes us that the industry simply peddles old tat under a more appealing name in order to make it seem more valuable; who wants a grotty old table when you can buy a brand new one alongside some...
Review Lost Orbit (PlayStation 4)
You die and you learn
Like its protagonist, Lost Orbit runs on something; the difference is that instead of jet fuel, the self-proclaimed dodge-'em-up is powered by risk and reward. Quickly zooming past two asteroids set to collide, using a planet's rings to catapult from one place to the next, and flying through gas giants for an extra boost of...
News No, Shenmue III Ain't Looking for Sailors on PS4
Don't you know fakes are way uncool?
Remember the day the snow turned to rain? Yeah, sounds like a tall tale to us – a bit like this supposed Shenmue leak.

News Take-Two CEO Denies That There Were Ever Plans for GTA V to Get Single Player DLC
But the executive apparently misspoke
So, remember back when Rockstar Games said that Grand Theft Auto V would be getting some story-based DLC? Yeah, like a super long time ago? Turns out that never happened. Crazy, right? But when Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick was asked about any upcoming content in a recent earnings call, he seemed a bit dazed,...
News Mega64 Has a Jab at Konami in Brilliant New P.T. Parody
P.Terrific
If you've still got a bag full of hate with Konami's name on it, you'll probably enjoy this new Mega64 video, in which the gang take both subtle and not-so-subtle jabs at the Japanese company. However, the true brilliance of the clip is that it's all created in true P.T. style, complete with creepy corridors and juttering abominations...
News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4, Vita Flounder as Final Fantasy Tops
Depression quest
Well, the hangover from Golden Week makes for particularly dire reading in this week's Japanese sales charts. As has been the case a lot lately, the PlayStation 4 was top of the hardware charts – though the Nintendo 3DS beat it comfortably if you combine its various models – but the numbers were disappointing across the board...
News Are We About to See More Simultaneous PlayStation Store Launches?
Wait no more
We've noticed a change on the PlayStation Store of late. It used to be in the days of yore that games and add-on packs deployed on Tuesday in North America and Wednesday in Europe. Sony set up this schedule eons ago, and it's remained more or less unchanged in the years since. However, we've started to see more and more content launch...

Fittingly named KURSK
A small, relatively new development team comprised of former Traveller's Tales, CD Projekt RED, and Infinite Dreams guys has decided to make a game about the tragic sinking of the Russian Kursk submarine. There aren't too many details just yet, but we already know that the game will play from a first-person perspective and be...

House of (white) Wolves
This week's European PlayStation Store update certainly isn't the biggest in recent memory, but it's packing some massive releases.

Soapbox The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's Physical Package Puts All Other Games to Shame
Above and beyond
I'm not overly thrilled at the fact that my age is beginning to increase against my will, but I am thankful that I'm old enough to appreciate physical media.

News God of War III Remastered PS4 Footage Stabs Hades in His Spiky Back

Yeah, yeah – it's another PlayStation 4 remaster.
