Up until the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita, Sony used to invest a lot of time and resources into its consoles’ start-up sequences.

Review Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind - Grandiose DLC for Hardcore Fans, and That's About It
Kingdom Hearts III.1
If there was ever a piece of media so utterly devoted to confusing its dedicated fan base and actively pushing away those who didn’t choose to invest their time in playing nine previous instalments, it's Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind.

It was for nothing
You have to imagine that Sony has at least entertained the idea of a Last of Us movie, but given that it can't seem to make an Uncharted flick work, perhaps it's best left alone. If you were curious what a Last of Us film might look like, however, these images may surprise you. A batch of stills from an alleged animated short...

While it’s great to have a new arcade-inspired sports game to look forward to, anime adaptation Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions doesn’t look like a title contender in this first PlayStation 4 gameplay footage.

Launch numbers are in
SEGA knew it was taking a bit of a risk with Yakuza: Like a Dragon -- or Yakuza 7, as it's known in Japan.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is a pretty big game. Alongside the main story of Dragon Ball Z, there are loads of side quests to undertake, as well as various optional activities.

Hands On Shenmue III's Battle Rally Is Bad in the Best Possible Way
Race to the bottom
What the flying Fuku-san is this? Shenmue III’s first post-release expansion pack Battle Rally launched this week, and it’s stranger than turtle racing.
