Push Rewind The Witcher 3 PS4 Patches, Rocket League, And Not a Whole Lot Else
Say what you want
If the industry was ever going to take a week off, it picked the right one. Push Square Towers has been too busy perched in front of the tennis to talk about video games – but given the overall winners, this author kinda wished that he hadn't bothered. In all seriousness, it's been a quiet few days on Planet PlayStation. Still,...

New balls, please
The weekend has finally arrived, which means that it's Wimbledon finals time. Of course, if you're not interested in scoffing strawberries while marvelling at Roger Federer's ability to make tennis balls bow to his every whim, then you'll probably be playing some PlayStation games.

Lightning strikes twice
Before you start, yes, we're well aware that there seems to be a new Warriors game hitting the market every other month, but given the recent quality of Koei's hack and slash franchises, we're not too worried - at least, not yet.

News This Probably Isn't The Dragon Quest Announcement You Wanted
Square Enix wants in on the Minecraft crowd
Last week, Square Enix was teasing a Dragon Quest announcement in Japan.

News Conversations with Creators Kicks Off with Destiny: The Taken King
Chewing the cud
We'll let you into a little secret here: interviewing big developers is hard. With so many other publications in the world, it's almost impossible to land a lengthy chat with a AAA team – and when the opportunity does arise, there'll almost always be a public relations person waiting to shut down every other question that you ask...
Video Watch As We Recap June 2015's Best PS4, PS3, and Vita Games
WHAT ARE THEY?!
Hello valued viewers! I'm back (again) with a packet of Strepsils and a bit of a sore throat.

Day early friend
Well this is all rather new, isn't it? The European PlayStation Store historically doesn't update until Wednesday, but with more and more games dropping on a Tuesday, it seems like Sony's decided to share the lineup for the Old World a little earlier.

You can transfer your save to PS4, though
Sad news for those still battling demons on their PlayStation 3: BioWare has confirmed that future downloadable content for Dragon Age: Inquisition will only be available on new-gen consoles. While the reasoning for this is unclear, we'd wager that it's to make development a little easier and quicker. What's...
Game of the Month The Best PlayStation Games of June 2015
Manga madness, millionaire heroes, feudal Japan, and lots of guns
Wow, and we thought that May was a weak month. To be fair, the rules of Game of the Month state that we can't include re-releases of any kind that have appeared on a PlayStation console in the past, so the likes of the great Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition missed out on a chance at...

Here in the UK, we're currently still enduring a rather sweaty heatwave.

News Here's What's in Destiny: The Taken King on PS4
More than meets the eye?

Luffin' it
As many One Piece or Warriors fans will tell you, the Pirate Warriors titles are a lot of fun.

It was destiny
Easily one of the biggest megatons of Sony's E3 2015 press conference was the fact that the Japanese giant had somehow stolen the marketing rights for Call of Duty: Black Ops III from Microsoft, despite the fact that the franchise has been an Xbox staple for years upon years now. The marketing deal that the American company had with...

German international Mario Götze may have scored the winning goal for his country in the 2014 world cup final, but his luck wasn't so great on the pitch of one gamer's PlayStation 3 copy of FIFA.

SW19
It's been a much tamer week here at Push Square Towers after the intensity of E3 2015. For starters, Robert Ramsey's taken some well deserved days off, which means that we haven't had to hear about the latest Samurai Warriors every six or so minutes. Moreover, there's been a real dearth of big news following last week's tidal wave. Let's hope...
