On its own, the Grabinator sounds like a fine idea
When wearing Sackboy's specially crafted gloves you can pick up objects and throw them. That's fine, but it's not getting us too excited. However, the end of this trailer shows the perfect use for LittleBigPlanet 2's new gameplay mechanic — basketball. Now you can have perfect, free-flowing...

Blimey, the "plastic-instrument" genre really does appear to be dead
Viacom's announced intent to sell off Harmonix, the developer behind the Rock Band series. No explanation was offered in the company's financial report, but it's probably partly due to Rock Band 3's poor commercial performance. The game was a critical smash, but it couldn't muster...

News Check Out The First Ten Minutes Of The Prince Of Persia Trilogy HD
That Prince Of Persia Trilogy HD disc is out in Europe next week

Beware: this video is pretty spoiler heavy.

News European LittleBigPlanet 2 Collector's Edition Confirmed, A Bit Disappointing
Remember that amazing LittleBigPlanet 2 collector's edition Sony announced for the US? Yeah, we're not getting that here in Europe

The cheapest price for Call Of Duty: Black Ops seems to be at...
News Football Manager 2011 Tops The UK Charts As 007 Languishes Outside The Top Ten
The UK charts paint a bizarre picture this week
Apparently Britain still loves football (both Football Manager 2011 and FIFA 11 occupy the chart's top two spots), but it seems there's not quite the same love for 007 at the moment. Activision's Wii-exclusive Goldeneye reboot only managed to reach the thirteen in the charts, while Blood Stone debuted...

Feature A Little Something About Rock Band 3...
It took us a long time to get excited for the music game genre that exploded a few years back
Guitar Hero was never our cup of tea because we didn't like the music. Rock Band seemed stupid because we'd rather be in a real rock band than a plastic one. It was the release of The Beatles: Rock Band and DJ Hero that got us to buy into the "music...
News This Live Action Call Of Duty: Black Ops Commercial Is Either Amazing Or Terrible
There's a soldier in all of us apparently

News Sniper: Ghost Warrior Targets A PlayStation 3 Release In 2011
Sniper: Ghost Warrior's been popping up in the UK charts for months now
It's surprising because outside of the sales reports, we've never heard of the game. Apparently the budget title's been a big success on the XBOX 360, so big in fact that it's coming to the PlayStation 3 next year. The port will include all the updates (and presumably DLC) from...

News Activision Confirms New Transformers, X-Men & Hero Titles Are On The Way Next Year
Transformers: War For Cybertron was a good game, but it lacked the polish to carry it through the year

News SCEA: Gran Turismo 5 Still Locked For Pre-Christmas Release
Everyday that passes without word on Gran Turismo 5 raises more concern in the PushSquare office
We'd just like to know what's going on. We get the impression Sony want to make sure everything is absolutely 101% locked down before they make a new announcement, and that makes sense, but it would be nice to be kept in the loop wouldn't it? SCEA's...

News What's LittleBigPlanet 2's Creatinator All About Then?
Leave it to Media Molecule to explain LittleBigPlanet 2's new features in a cavalcade of synth-pop and whimsy

News James Bond 007: Blood Stone Gets Launch Trailer, Still Looks Exciting To Us
We suppose we have a weakness to anything with James Bond on the cover
The last PlayStation 3 Bond game, Quantum Of Solace, was pretty rubbish. But we still found ourselves ploughing in the 30 hours or so needed to get the Platinum trophy. It's because it's got Bond on the box. Even though Activision appears dead-set on burying James Bond 007: Blood...

News US Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit Promotion Attempts Get Worse
Just when we thought EA couldn't possibly top those horrible, horrible dudebro party videos for Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit, they release these terrible commercials
