News Capcom Blames Sony For Missing Super Street Fighter IV Costumes
There's one major difference between the XBOX 360 and PlayStation 3 version of Super Street Fighter IV
On the 360, if you participate in an online match with someone wearing a DLC costume, you'll be able to see the get-up even if you haven't purchased it. On PlayStation 3 you can't. This is because Capcom offers a free download on XBOX Live known as...
News Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 Is More Masters Than Extramarital Affairs
EA Sports said they'd stick with Tiger Woods for their premium annual golf franchise and they have
The upcoming Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 boasts the scandalous golfers name right on the cover. What it doesn't include is a mug-shot of ol' trouser-snake. EA's decided to make the inclusion of the game's Masters tournament the star of the cover. EA's used...
News Rock Band Developers Sold For The Same Price As A Copy Of Rock Band 3
At the time of writing, Rock Band 3 is available for $49
96 on Amazon</a>. The game's developers, Harmonix, are worth a similar amount of dough according to a report on All Things Digital. The site details that Harmonix's independence cost investment group Columbus just $49.99. Of course, it all gets a bit complicated from there on. Harmonix's...

News Well Of Course There's Going To Be A Call Of Duty Subscription Model
We're not really sure why people blame Activision for making money
They have the hottest property in video games right now, and while we share concerns about them taking something actually quite good and driving it into the ground, we absolutely don't blame them for wanting to make some money. Which is why, despite frequent denials, some kind of...
News You Did Play The Original Dead Space, Right?
Nice little treat for fans of the franchise this
Those of you who've got a Dead Space save-file on your PlayStation 3 (it doesn't have to be complete, though we'd recommend it is) will get a reward in the upcoming Dead Space 2. A skin will be made available unlocking the original game's Plasma Cutter weapon. Boom. Now you can be all like "pew...
News Atlus To Provide Demo For The Bizarre Looking Catherine
We know it's got sheep people, bimbos and dead bodies, but to be honest we don't know much else about Catherine, the upcoming PlayStation 3 title from Atlus
With the game roughly a month away from its Japanese launch, perhaps it's time we learned a thing or two about the NSFW title. Good news. The game's director, Katsura Hashino, has confirmed that...
News Angry Birds Launches On PlayStation Minis This Week
For all the hyperbole that's spewed about iOS being the future of handheld gaming, we don't really feel like its catalogue is all that special
You've got a stream of clunky rip-offs from Gameloft, plenty of games trying to make do with no buttons, and then the critical darlings: Doodle Jump, Angry Birds and Cut The Rope. All three titles are...

News "Offensive" PlayStation Move Advertisement Banned For Being "Too Violent"
"Move into the fight" is the tag-line for Sony's print The Fight: Lights Out campaign
Unfortunately for the platform holder, no one will be moving anywhere as the campaign has been banned in Britain. The spot — which depicts a player throwing pretend punches and grasping a digital character in a head-lock — received eight complaints and has...
Around this time last year everyone was hyped for the somewhat disappointing Split/Second
The game's cinematic take on arcade racing pulled everyone in and delivered a unique but flawed experience when it launched earlier this year. MotorStorm Apocalypse blows everything about Split/Second away. Last year we were comparing Split/Second to Michael...

News DC Universe Online Release Date Causes Tears At The PushSquare Christmas Party
We've played enough of DC Universe Online to know that we could get seriously, seriously addicted

News EA: PlayStation Brand Stronger Than XBOX On A Global Basis

News US PlayStation Plus Subscribers Net Unlimited MAG Full-Game Trial
Here's a novel way of killing three birds with one stone: MAG's set to get an unlimited full-game trial for US PlayStation Plus subscribers this week
The trial will allow players to experience MAG fully, but will cap progress at level eight. This is actually the best idea ever. Why? It serves three purposes: keeps MAG's servers populated with fresh...
Isn't it bizarre how patching can change games? For example, the MAG we reviewed in January is no longer the same game
Likewise PlayStation Home, the whole things changed yo. So while Gran Turismo 5 sits looking sulkily at its respectable Metacritic score of 84, Polyphony Digital's been busy beavering away on new features that could easily brings...
News SCEE Deploys Enormous Christmas Sale On European PlayStation Store
It's Christmas -- or so the neighbours' irritatingly chirpy festive lights are trying to tell us
Of course, we all know that the best thing about Christmas (aside from it being over) are the ridiculous sales. When else can you get Naughty Bear for £3.99 from GAME? (Don't do it.) Digital sales are probably the best kind because there's no physical...
News LittleBigPlanet 2's Got Pool And Bowling In It
Marvel vs
Capcom is cool and all</a>, but your Grandad doesn't know how to play that. LittleBigPlanet 2 is a family game after all. Maybe he knows how to play pool instead? Good job Media Molecule's thought of everything. Check out a bunch of LBP2's sports mini-games in the trailer above. In other related news, LBP2 scored a 10/10 in this...

News Crazy People Create Sony vs. Marvel vs. Capcom In LittleBigPlanet 2
We can probably all agree that Marvel vs
Capcom would be better with a dash of Kratos and Cole McGrath. These insane LittleBigPlanet 2 creators have crafted just that, creating a fully fledged beat 'em up within the confines of the upcoming Play Create Share title's beta. The game has proper special moves and everything. It's all a bit bonkers to be...

.. You might end up wanting one of these PlayStation 3 compatible NEOGEO pads from SNK Playmore and Exar. The USB powered pad will work with both the PS3 and PC.

News Sliding Cars Around *Is* Ridiculously Good Fun
The most fun thing about DiRT 2 (aside from its lavish presentation and addictive progression) was the way the cars handled
It wasn't a simulation game, nor it was it an arcade game — it was somewhere in between. That made sliding around corners ridiculously satisfying. Codemasters clearly understands the strength of its drift mechanic, with this...
News Gah, This PlayStation Move Sharp Shooter Thing Has Gone From "WTF?!" To "Must-Have"
We already have a PlayStation Move gun attachment, but as time goes by we're slowly realising that we need another
Nobody told us this PlayStation Move Sharp Shooter thing was designed by Guerrilla and Zipper. Nobody told us it had pump-action reload. Nobody told us it had a clip slot button on the bottom. This thing is awesome (aside from the...
News There's More Than A Hint Of Uncanny Valley In This L.A. Noire Trailer
Look, the tech behind L
A. Noire</a> is clearly absolutely phenomenal. We get that. At the same time, the game just looks weird. Because the technology is so amazing and the facial capture is so realistic, the crappy looking character models just make everything look weird. We hope the rough edges are just a result of early development or...
News Insomniac Release Director's Cut Resistance 3 Trailer
Insomniac's released an extended "Director's Cut" version of their Resistance 3 trailer

News Mass Effect 2 PlayStation 3 "Truly The Best Version", Utilises Mass Effect 3's Engine
It's a move that we never anticipated, but makes piles and piles of sense
Bioware's bringing Mass Effect 3 to the PlayStation 3 day-and-date with its XBOX 360 counterpart, but the franchise's previous title, Mass Effect 2, is finally coming to the PS3 in January. Makes sense that the port would run under Mass Effect 3's updated graphics engine,...
News Deus Ex: Human Revolution Pushed Out Of Busy First Quarter
With the fourth quarter of 2010 evaded due to the might of Call Of Duty: Black Ops, it's now time for the Q1 2011 left-overs to leap-frog each other
Deus Ex: Human Revolution's the first game to falter, dropping its first quarter launch in favour of Square Enix's new fiscal year (which runs from April 1st, 2011). Apparently the delay will allow...
News Gameloft's Modern Combat: Domination To Implement PlayStation Move
Modern Combat: Domination might have the worst name in history, but it's coming from Gameloft so we'd expect nothing less

News Q-Games Detail PixelJunk Shooter 2's Monstrous Online Component
PixelJunk Shooter 2 might have a host of new worlds, liquid, puzzles and bosses -- but clearly what's most exciting about the PSN dual-stick shooter sequel is the game's new online multiplayer component

News Catch Up On Yakuza 4's Cast With Another Set Of Character Trailers
So now we know all about Akiyama, SEGA's decided to release another couple of trailers detailing Yakuza 4's cast
There's footage dedicated to series stalwart Kazuma Kiryu and also jailbird Taiga Saejima. With our Yakuza craving bordering on "unbearable", these trailers are getting a little testing. Just give us the game SEGA. Please.
We're picturing ourselves at Evolution Studio's offices
Behind us is a big whiteboard with the words, "Race Track Brainstorming Session" emblazoned on it. We know the words are important because they've been underlined not once, not twice, but three times. We're wearing a suit, as are the rabble of ladies and gentleman in our vicinity...
News The Yakuza Shoot Zombies In The Head This Coming March
Famitsu's slapped a March 17th release date on SEGA's PlayStation 3-exclusive zombie shoot 'em up
The bizarre Yakuza spin-off, Yakuza: Of The End, is set to release in Japan on March 17th. With Yakuza 4 due out on PlayStation 3 in early 2011, we're crossing our fingers Yakuza: Of The End makes it over here by mid-2012. Never take anything for...
News SEGA Plans Retail Dreamcast Collection For PlayStation 3
Reality check: if SEGA was still a hardware manufacturer, PushSquare would not exist
That's fact. Don't tell anyone, but the guys behind PushSquare, yeah, they're SEGA fanboys. They're kinda Nintendo fanboys too, but anyway... Let's move swiftly on before this gets all kinds of awkward. Fact is, here at PushSquare we like the Dreamcast a lot. A lot,...
News Guerrilla Confirms Split-Screen Co-Op For Killzone 3
Killzone 3 is a stupidly pretty PlayStation 3 game, but in justifying just how much Guerrilla's pushing the PlayStation 3 with their lastest title, Herman Hulst has outed the game's split-screen co-op
Speaking in an interview with 1Up about the technical specifications of Killzone 3, Hulst accidentally detailed the much demanded feature: "We...
News European PlayStation Plus Members Net Free Entry To The DC Universe Online Beta
We're downloading all 15GB of the DC Universe Online beta as we type

News PlayStation 3 Browser Gets Awesome New Landing Page, Not Compatible With 720p
We always thought 720p was a super popular screen resolution
Seeing as like only three games actually support the full 1080p resolution (and you know, the difference isn't all that noticeable on average TVs), we assumed there were millions of users worldwide playing their games in 720p. According to Sony's statistics though, only 2% of people using...
News Europe Confirmed For Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
Looks like Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception will not settle for the Middle East as its sole location, as Sony's own portal for the game notes "a variety of spectacular locations around the world from Europe to the Middle East"
No idea how we missed that in the original PR. The derelict chateau featured in Jimmy Fallon's gameplay blow-out last night is...
News SingStar Actually Makes Sense In North America Again, DLC Parity Incoming
In Europe, SingStar is amazing
That's because the SingStore is packed with piles and piles and piles of good karaoke DLC. In the US, SingStar is less amazing. That's because there's hardly any great DLC across the pond. Thanks to a deal between Sony and Universal Music, that's all set to change. As Sony moves towards parity between the two regions,...
News Jimmy Fallon Debuts The First Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception Gameplay
For all his forced excitement, we don't entirely hate Jimmy Fallon
The guy clearly enjoys video games, and he's giving them a prime-time spot on his TV show. There's something neat about that. Still, it's hard to watch this debut Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception footage without wanting to wrangle the controller off him — dude can't seem to navigate...

News Prototype Hits The PlayStation Store This Week
Prototype's the very definition of an "impulse buy" sorta game
The title got decent reviews at launch and has maintained a limited but vocal fan-base. It's been on our "to-do" list for quite some time actually. So it's with some anticipation that we've got wind of Activision's plans to bring the open-world superhero title to the...
Remember THQ's bumper reveal last night? That's right, inSane, the new horror title from Guillermo del Toro

News Mortal Kombat Nets Retailer Exclusive Fatalities In The US
Kratos is a nice little addition for PlayStation 3 owners intending to pick up Mortal Kombat when it launches on 19th April next year

News UK PlayStation 3s Get The ITV Player & 4OD This Week
For the most part, television is the worst thing in the world

UK Charts There's Really Nothing Very Interesting To See Here
The people of Britain like Call Of Duty: Black Ops
How do we know? It's back at the top of the UK sales charts. Again. Y'know what else British people like? Football. Not the kind that's played with eggs, the kind that's played with balls. Football. Yup, FIFA 11's right at the top of the UK sales charts too. In fact, you know what, these charts...

Next year's already looking to have one of the strongest video game lineups in a long time

News VGA 2010: SSX: Deadly Descents Takes Itself A Little Too Seriously
People have been calling for a new SSX game for a number of years, but we're not sure SSX: Deadly Descents is what they had in mind
The flamboyant nature of the PlayStation 2's SSX titles appears to have been replaced by an edgy, gritty angle. Yeah. The trailer's after the jump.
News VGA 2010: Batman: Arkham City Gets Strange, Dr. Hugo Strange To Be Precise
Hype
It might be a CG trailer without an inch of gameplay, but this Batman: Arkham City teaser really sets the tone for Rocksteady's upcoming sequel. The trailer introduces the game's new lead antagonist, Dr. Hugo Strange, who is in charge of Arkham City itself. The trailer doesn't reveal much, but it does set the tone.
News VGA 2010: Guillermo Del Toro Teases "Horrific Adventure" Title For 2013
Sometimes games get announced too early, and we can't help but feel that Guillermo del Toro and THQ's collaboration, Insane, is going to fall victim to that
Despite sounding like our kind of game (THQ's Danny Bilson pitches it as an "horrific adventure"), it's not due to release until 2013. 2013! Sorry THQ, our attention is most certainly...

Perhaps one of the worst kept secrets of the VGAs this year, Activision's announced Prototype 2 for release in 2012
The game introduces a new protagonist, Sgt. James Heller, who's been tasked with destroying the previous game's antihero, Alex Mercer. That's a nice little twist. Still, Activision's slapped a 2012 release date on this. It's hard to...
News VGA 2010: Kratos Kicks Some Ass In The New Mortal Kombat
It was rumoured earlier in the week, but now NetherRealm's put an end to speculation: Kratos will join Mortal Kombat's character roster exclusively on PlayStation 3

News VGA 2010: Debut Resistance 3 Gameplay Trailer Released, Launches September 6th
They pulled it off
For weeks now we've been worrying whether the style from Resistance 3's artwork would match the actual gameplay. It does. Resistance 3's debut gameplay footage features a style much closer in tone to the original game. The soft colour palette and flickery composition excite us no end, largely because it gives back the franchise...

News NPD: Call Of Duty: Black Ops Shifts A Not-Too-Shabby 3.1 Million Units On PlayStation 3
In many ways, the Call Of Duty franchise is an XBOX 360 exclusive
It's a "modern" exclusive if you like. Back in the day, exclusivity meant "absolutely not coming out on any other platforms". That kind of exclusive still exists in some cases, but the numbers are diminishing. That's especially accurate when it comes to third...

Sony's upcoming PlayStation mascot crossover title, PlayStation Move Heroes, proves that games can actually utilise more than 10,000 shades of brown and still look good. The game's heading to the PlayStation 3 next year and will obvious support the Move motion controller. How'd you guess?</em>

Let's get straight to the point: the PlayStation 3 did not have a good November in the US
The PlayStation 3's 530k units sold was roughly 25% down year-on-year. It's even more worrying when compared to the competition, with the XBOX 360 and Nintendo Wii both managing sales of over 1 million a piece. As concerning as the numbers are, they're also...

Sony's sent us a juicy bit of PR this morning, claiming that they've shipped 5
5 million copies of Gran Turismo 5. The tally puts the series' total beyond the 60 million mark, which is insane for a racing game franchise. The majority of Gran Turismo 5 copies were shipped to Europe, with 3.5 million units sent to the region. North America got 1.2...
