Pre-orders no longer available
The Last of Us: Part II has been removed from the PlayStation Store after its indefinite delay pushed the title beyond the previously announced release date of 29th May 2020. This means that PSN users can no longer digitally pre-order the standard edition or the more expensive Digital Deluxe Edition Sony had to offer...
Rumour Deep Down Was in a 'Near-Complete State' Before Being Shelved
But it's dead
We can't quite believe that seven years after its original unveiling, we're still writing about Deep Down. The famously announced PlayStation 4 title was revealed at Sony's disclosure of the current-gen console and has never been seen since, despite Capcom stating that it hasn't "given up on the title completely." We can safely say...
Review Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories - Incoherent Disaster Sim Fails on All Fronts
Disaster la vista, baby
Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories is an odd title, isn't it? Ostensibly, the game is about surviving a gargantuan earthquake, so that's the "Disaster Report" bit covered. But "Summer Memories"? It sounds more like the name of a sickly sweet K-Pop song than anything to do with cracked pavement or crumbling buildings. As it...
News Final Fantasy VII Remake's Main Menu Screen Is a Thing of Beauty
Now that's nostalgia
If you've played the original Final Fantasy VII, then you'll know the significance of this main menu screen.

Round Up Final Fantasy VII Remake PS4 Reviews Are on Cloud Nine
Buster groove

All in all, it's looking very, very good for Cloud and co., with the majority of reviewers dishing out high scores and a lot of praise. We imagine that Square Enix is...

Soapbox I Wish I Was Growing Up with Games Now
Nostalgia is a helluva drug
It’s so easy to look back at games with rose-tinted glasses, I think. I wouldn’t change my childhood gaming experiences for the world; my jaw hit the floor when I first saw Crash Bandicoot’s N. Sanity Beach on the PS1, and I engaged in a six month adventure with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on the Nintendo...
News Saints Row The Third Remastered Brings Dumb Fun to PS4 in May
The boys are back in town
Saints Row The Third Remastered is official, and it's coming to PlayStation 4 next month, on the 22nd May. The third game in Volition's sandbox series is where it really started to embrace stupidity (in a good way, as far as we're concerned). It's not as completely batsh*t insane as Saints Row IV, but it's still mental...
