News UK Sales Charts: Digimon Marks Only Change in Impenetrable Top 10
Digimon are the champions
Another week, another mostly similar UK sales chart. This week we mainly see a reshuffle of the previous top 10, with only one dropping out (Forza Motorsport 7) and one new entry. Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker's Memory just makes it into 10th place on the list, and honestly, there isn't a whole lot more to report...

PS4 crowned best-selling console of 2017
Those people who wrote articles about the death of the console industry prior to the release of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One should hang their heads in shame, as Call of Duty: WWII just dominated a $3.29 billion month for the United States games industry. That’s up 10 per cent over year-over-year,...
News Japanese Sales Charts: Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Fights Its Way to Number 1 on PS4
But can't beat its PSP brothers
Dissidia Final Fantasy NT launched in Japan last week, and it shot straight to the top of the software charts. The fighter-role-playing game hybrid racked up around 106,000 sales on PlayStation 4. That doesn't seem too shabby given the current Japanese market, but it's worth pointing out that the two prior Dissidia...

News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4 Gets a Healthy New Year Boost
Sony's system enjoys a jump
Two Japanese sales charts articles in one week? Are they trying to do us in?

News PlayStation Fans Are Gaming's Biggest W*nkers
#4TheForeplay
Sony’s mantra with the PlayStation 4 is “the best place to play”, and true to its word, new Pornhub data shows that fans have been extra busy jiggling their joysticks in 2017. PlayStation systems accounted for a whopping 56 per cent of the popular site’s games console traffic last year, meaning you should probably think twice...
News Japanese Sales Charts: It's Been a Quiet Christmas for PlayStation
Zzz
We'll be frank: it's barely worth reporting on these latest Japanese charts. PlayStation had a very quiet post-Christmas period, with console sales dropping off and no new software to speak of.

Here we go again
It’s still very early in the year, but it’s time for the European PlayStation Store to be awoken from its slumber. The headliner this week is probably Little Red Lie, the latest interactive adventure from Actual Sunlight creator Will O’Neill. A special mention must go out to Atari Flashback Classics Vol. 3, though, which...
News UK Sales Charts: FIFA 18 Kicks off 2018 at No.1
Live and kicking
The new year is off to a fairly unsurprising start in the UK weekly sales chart. FIFA 18 has reclaimed the top spot from Call of Duty: WWII, and we see PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds nip into the top 10 at 7th, but other than that, there isn't an awful lot out of the ordinary this week. Perhaps the most interesting nugget of...

Friday the 13th in top five
Call of Duty: WWII was the most downloaded PlayStation 4 game of 2017 on the US PlayStation Store, followed by Destiny 2.

News UK Sales Charts: Call of Duty Remains MVP for Final Week of 2017
Boom
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Call of Duty: WWII has kept hold of its position atop the UK physical charts as 2017 drew to a close. It's been sitting pretty as number one for eight weeks running which, according to chart trackers GfK, hasn't happened since Zumba Fitness danced into our lives in 2011. The top five hasn't changed at all, actually, but...

Milestone edition
Wow! We’ve actually reached Issue 200 of WAYP, and we’ve still managed to maintain a flawless weekly record.

Remember when people questioned whether Crash Bandicoot could possibly be relevant in 2017? Well, the orange furred fave has done okay for himself this Christmas, with the N.

We already knew, of course
Long before loot boxes and horse armour, there was a different kind of gaming scandal engaging forum goers: was the Killzone 2 reveal trailer real or not?

Game of the Month The Best PS4 Games of November 2017
Detectives, deers, dealers, and dragons
We won't beat around the bush here: November wasn't an especially amazing month for great PlayStation 4 games.
