Store Update 1st October 2013 (North America)
Overcast edition
Prop up your umbrellas, because this week’s North American PlayStation Store update features a drizzling of new content. First and foremost is Rain, the quirky stealth adventure from Japan Studio. It’s joined by Flashback, the modern day remake of Paul Cuisset’s classic, and the awkwardly dubbed Die! Die! Die!. Are you ready...

Hot coffee
Have you managed to play Grand Theft Auto Online yet? The hotly anticipated online expansion for Grand Theft Auto V has been suffering some serious issues ever since it launched yesterday, with many players unable to even eschew the clunky character creation screen. To its credit, publisher
News What's New in PlayStation 3 Firmware Update v4.50?
Auto update, Trophy cloaking, and more
Sony has deployed a brand new firmware update for the PlayStation 3 – and this one does a little more than offer operational stability. The system software refresh – which is available now – augments a handful of, er, handy new features, including the ability to auto download updates and purchases made...
News Grand Theft Auto Online's Character Creator Is Clever, But Very Clunky
Parent trap
The best and worst thing about Rockstar's games is that they’re different. As noted in our review, Grand Theft Auto V is an exceptional adventure, with the kind of attention to detail that you simply wouldn’t find in any other release. However, it’s also letdown – no matter how slightly – by the fact that it’s a bit of a pain...
Opinion Isn't It Time That We Put a Stop to Grand Theft Auto Online-Esque Debacles?
Teething troubles
Grand Theft Auto Online is broken. It’s hardly the most startling revelation of the year, as anyone with a lick of common sense predicted that Rockstar’s servers would crash faster than a towed penthouse the moment that the hotly anticipated multiplayer component launched. But with this kind of issue becoming more and more...

Become legend
As promised, Halo creator Bungie has deployed a brand new trailer for Destiny. The clip – which confirms that pre-orders will unlock beta access early next year – sets the overall tone of the interstellar plot, and shows se

News You'll Be Able to Fulfil Your Destiny with a Pre-Order
Bungie unlocks beta access
While you impatiently chomp at your nails waiting for Bungie to deploy Destiny’s next gameplay trailer, Amazon.com has accidentally announced a sliver of information regarding the first-person shooter’s online beta, which is set to begin in early 2014. According to the retailer, pre-ordering the title on either the...
Dry your eyes
Rain has the same ethereal quality as ICO. Much like Fumito Ueda’s masterpiece, this is a muted experience, orchestrated only by the sound of running water and composer Yugo Kanno’s twinkly score. It’s also a tale of boy meets girl, where two kindred spirits connect under the starlight of a sodden dream world. The parallels are...
Out Today Grand Theft Auto Online Makes a Connection on PS3
Better with you
Update: And it's up, folks. The patch weighs in at 39MB on the PlayStation 3. Have you downloaded it yet? What are you planning to do online first? Let us know in the comments section below.

News Destiny's Box Art Should Tide You Over Until Tomorrow's Trailer
Got you covered
Bungie has promised to release a brand new trailer for its upcoming shoot-and-loot outing Destiny – but you’ll have to wait until tomorrow in order to watch it in full. To make up for the miniscule delay, the former Halo developer has deployed the first-person shooter’s official box art, which shows the title’s three main...
News Tales of Symphonia Chronicles Brawls Online with First Translated Trailer
Lloyd Irving, wake up!
Regarded by many fans as the best game in the Tales series, Tales of Symphonia first launched in Japan in 2003 and the following year in western territories for the Nintendo GameCube. Despite releasing to decent sales and general critical acclaim, the title was also ported to the PlayStation 2 after a short while in Japan in...
News UK Sales Charts: FIFA 14 Boots Grand Theft Auto V from the Top of the League
Already ousted
Grand Theft Auto V may be the fastest-selling entertainment product of all time, but it’s already been toppled in the UK sales charts. Unsurprisingly, FIFA 14 latched onto a through ball straight to the summit, and brushed aside Rockstar Games’ critically acclaimed opus with relative ease. Despite this, though, the EA Sports...
News Beyond: Two Souls' Special Edition Does Its Best Portal Impression
Are you GLaDOS about that?
The cake may well be a lie, but Beyond: Two Souls’ bizarre Portal-inspired expansion is not. Sony has released a trailer for the upcoming PlayStation 3 exclusive’s special steelbook edition, which includes an additional 30 minutes of gameplay courtesy of the Aperture Science-esque ‘Advanced Experiments’ training...
News Natural Doctrine Wields Its Sword and Shield in PS4 Trailer
Glitzy glimpse
Japanese publisher Kadokawa Games is hoping to open your eyes to PlayStation 4 launch title Natural Doctrine with a slick little video short that shows off its cast – and most members' questionable dress sense. While all of the stars are clearly well endowed in the weaponry department, we’re not entirely convinced that the skimpy...

Shadow of the Colossus, Hotline Miami, and more along for the ride

Weirdness The Last of Us Almost Ended on a Musical High
Song for slaughter
First shown at PAX, Sony has released a video detailing a rather ridiculous motion capture take of The Last of Us' ending. The finale, which was originally entirely cinematic, takes a strange but wonderful turn as Maureen's actress Merle Dandridge is secretly told to sing her lines by director Neil Druckman. Incredibly, Troy...
Store Update 25th September 2013 (Europe)
Alive and kicking
There’s plenty of meat on the latest European PlayStation Store update’s bones. In addition to FIFA 14 on virtually every platform under the sun, there’s also the overdue arrival of Ratchet: Gladiator to look forward to. Elsewhere, free-to-play brawler Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate: Core Fighters is on hand to keep you...
Store Update 24th September 2013 (North America)
Spherical balls
There’s plenty of football on offer as part of this week’s North American PlayStation Store update – but not the kind that our friends over the Atlantic may expect. FIFA 14 and PES 2014: Pro Evolution Soccer are both out now, and that means that there’s nary a shoulder pad or helmet in sight. Other new additions include the...

The add-on features two snazzy new Batsuits – Knightfall Batman and Classic TV Series Batman – in addition to five bonus challenge...
Talking Point When Will Be the Right Time to Reintroduce The Last Guardian?
Birds of delay
Four years. It’s been four years since The Last Guardian was officially announced for the PlayStation 3. A leaked video had revealed the project a few weeks earlier, but it wasn’t acknowledged by Sony until the platform holder’s press conference at E3 2009. That early glimpse – a four-and-a-half minute trailer – remains the...
News The Last of Us' First Expansion Pack Steps Out of Hiding This Week
Click, clock
Naughty Dog promised to give us a look at its first nail-biting expansion pack for The Last of Us back in August, but that month has come and gone with nary the hint of a clicking sound. Brace yourself, though, because the Californian studio is finally steadying its nerves in preparation for a reveal later this week. About time, huh?...
Review Lone Survivor: The Director's Cut (PlayStation 3)
The only thing scarier than dying alone is surviving alone
Lone Survivor manages to concoct a tier of fear that many contemporary horror titles have been struggling to achieve. Through exceptional use of sound and visuals, this indie title creates a tense and uncomfortable atmosphere, and furthers its psychological minefield with compelling...
News Don't Park Your Car in One of Grand Theft Auto V's Garages
Leave it outside in broad daylight instead
The citizens of Los Santos know a thing or two about losing their rides – after all, there’s a good chance that you’ve spent the past week or so stealing other people’s cars. Now you could be about to get a taste of your own medicine, as Grand Theft Auto V has a glitch that’s prompting some parked...
News Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII Flashes Footage of the End of the World
Not a hair conditioner commercial

Rumour You'll Be Able to Exchange Real Cash for Money in Grand Theft Auto Online
Cash injection
You may be able to earn some serious paper from bank jobs and crafty accounting in Grand Theft Auto V, but that takes effort. It seems like the upcoming Grand Theft Auto Online will allow you to eschew that hard work by purchasing a dodgy bank card – for a fee, of course. Reddit users have
Review Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD (PlayStation 3)
Not-so-clever girl
Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD harkens back to a time when games were simple and focused. Back in the day, the gameplay spoke for itself so there was little need for a narrative, and your overall goal was clear and simple: rescue the princess, shoot the demons, or in this case, hunt the dinosaurs. You play as a nameless hunter,...
News Beyond: Two Souls Didn't Cost As Much to Make As You Think
A hard bargain
Ellen Page is not exactly a small name in Hollywood. The inclusion of the Academy Award nominee in Beyond: Two Souls has prompted some to question the budget of Quantic Dream’s ambitious PlayStation 3 exclusive, but according to game director David Cage, the title has cost just €20 million (£16.9 million / $27 million) to...
Review Madden NFL 25 (PlayStation 3)
Touchdown
Ditching its typical naming pattern for something a little more celebratory, Madden NFL 25 marks the silver anniversary for EA Sports' massively popular American Football series. However, even though this is still a great game, it's not quite the commemoration that you may have wished for, offering plenty of tweaks and enhancements, but...
News UK Sales Charts: Grand Theft Auto V Plants a Charge on the Top Spot
Beats first week sales of all other GTAs combined
As expected, Grand Theft Auto V has put a bullet in all of its competitors and shot straight to the summit of the UK sales charts. Incredibly, after just five days on sale, the title is already the 24th best-selling game in the nation ever, and the tenth best on the PlayStation 3. Sony’s system...
Rumour Grand Theft Auto Online May Actually Support 32 Players
Possibly, anyway
If you need to rob a bus to roll with your inflated crew, then you may be over the moon to learn that Grand Theft Auto Online could support up to 32 players rather than the confirmed 16 players. Cinemablend reports – courtesy of leaked game code – that the title will allow
News Sony's Still Waiting for the Right Time to Reintroduce The Last Guardian
The wait goes on
In a dank cave deep beneath Japan Studio, a caged catbird is ruffling its feathers. Asked the inevitable question about a certain title at the Tokyo Game Show this week, Sony Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida told Game Informer that the platform holder is merely waiting for the “right time” to reintroduce The Last...
Soapbox Variety Is the Spice of Gaming Life
Sammy Barker shares his taste for a good gaming buffet
We’re never ones to pass up on a game of follow-the-leader here at Push Square towers, so it was only a matter of time before we politely borrowed the soapbox format that’s been running wild over on our sister site Nintendo Life for a while now. For those of you peering voyeuristically in...
News Lightning Can't Help Cosplaying As Her Favourite Final Fantasy VII Characters
If in doubt, bring out Aerith
You know that times are tough when Square Enix starts leaning on Final Fantasy VII nostalgia.

Not content with the recently revealed Cloud costume for Lightning Returns: Final...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 14
Living in a gangsta's paradise
Unsurprisingly, this edition of What Are You Playing This Weekend has turned into a bit of a Grand Theft Auto V special, with the majority of the staff here at Push Square towers far too busy terrorising the streets of Los Santos to worry about the dull weather outside. As always, feel free to let us know whether...
News Grand Theft Auto V Has Already Extracted $1 Billion from Consumers' Wallets
Counting the cash
We’ve heard a rumour that the team at Rockstar North has refilled the paper towel dispensers in all of its Edinburgh-based office’s toilets with £50 notes, and now we know why: Grand Theft Auto V has raked in a whopping $1 billion (£625 million) in retail sales after just three days on the market. That’s absolutely,...
TGS 2013 Ace Combat: Infinity May Be Free, But It's Still Silly
Free flight
If you were worried that Ace Combat: Infinity was going to drop its silly storyline like a nuclear bomb, then breathe a big sigh of relief: the title is still utterly ridiculous. The free-to-play PlayStation 3 exclusive occurs after an asteroid cluster has collided with the Earth, bringing an end to world order. You play as a mercenary...
TGS 2013 Forget Farming Simulator, You'll Be Able to Grow Crops in Yakuza Ishin
Spice of life
As thoroughly satisfied as we are with the PlayStation 4’s launch lineup, we’re a teensy bit jealous that Japan gets to enjoy Yakuza Ishin alongside the console. The historical sequel – which will almost certainly never get localised –
Review Grand Theft Auto V (PlayStation 3)
Three is a magic number
Michael, Franklin, and Trevor. These three personalities are at the very core of Grand Theft Auto V – one of the most anticipated games of this console generation. Everything that happens within the title revolves around the trio, from the gripping get-rich-quick heists that punctuate the story to the side activities that...
News You'll Need Your PS3 Discs to Play Discounted PS4 Upgrades
No way to game the system
Assuming that you have about as much patience as a Venus flytrap, you’ll be able to buy some of this year’s biggest PlayStation 3 games safe in the knowledge that it will only cost you $9.99/£9.99 to upgrade to the PlayStation 4 version. However, as part of a detailed explanation on the PlayStation Blog, Sony clarified...
First Impressions Basking in the Glow of Child of Light
Baby bright
The second UbiArt-powered game to be unveiled at Ubisoft’s Digital Days 2013 event, Child of Light – which is launching on both the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 – was pitched to us as “a JRPG for those that don’t have the time to invest a hundred hours into a game”. While this quote may trouble some hardcore JRPG fans,...

Thunder only happens when it's raining

Guide How to Be a Pimp in Grand Theft Auto V's Atomic Blimp
Flight of fancy
You’ve no doubt seen it on the horizon, but how do you actually get to pilot that pesky Atomic Blimp in Grand Theft Auto V. If you pre-ordered the game, you should have access to a special code that unlocks the unorthodox aircraft, but it can still be a little tricky to access. In order to make things as brazen as a big blue...

Store Update 18th September 2013 (Europe)
American dream

Greatness awaits
Cast your eyes deep into the distance of this photograph, and you still won’t be able to see the end of Sony’s colossal Tokyo Game Show booth.

Three's a crowd
The entire industry has gone on holiday in order to give you ample opportunity to play Grand Theft Auto V.

Talking Point Is Grand Theft Auto V Living Up to Your Expectations?
Lofty as the Los Santos dream

Out Today Grand Theft Auto V Hot-Wires Retail Around the Globe
Five's the magic number
It feels like an eternity since Grand Theft Auto V was first announced on 25th October all the way back in 2011.

That initial tease was followed by a mysterious trailer a week later, and...
News So, This Is What Grand Theft Auto V Actually Looks Like
It's a video game, alright
We can’t help but feel a little bit like a kid on Boxing Day right now. The build up to Grand Theft Auto V has been expectedly exciting, but a lot of that thrill has relied on the wrapping that Rockstar Games insists on keeping around its titles. Now that the embargo has lifted, though, we’re very much reminded of the...
News This Beyond: Two Souls Advert Should Shift a Few Copies
Born with a gift
Beyond: Two Souls is very much the type of release that will prompt your non-gaming companions to raise an eyebrow and ask you if it’s a movie or something that you can actually interact with on the PlayStation 3. The upcoming Sony published swansong is easily one of the most visually impressive titles in production for the...
Round Up Grand Theft Auto V Reviews Reach for the Stars
Top billing
While we toil away on our own Grand Theft Auto V review, a number of publications have gone live with their glowing appraisals earlier this afternoon. As expected, the title appears to be a rip-roaring success, currently carrying a Metacritic rating of 99 based on nine reviews – though we expect that to slip a little as more...
Review Farming Simulator (PlayStation 3)
Under thresher
Much like life on the land, Farming Simulator will not be for everyone. The agricultural adventure’s plodding, methodical pace is a far cry from the high-octane antics that the majority of developers tend to plant on the PlayStation 3, and as such it will demand a very determined personality to reap anything from the experience at...
Review Diablo III (PlayStation 3)
The path to paradise begins in Hell
We've spent the past few days hacking and slashing through hordes of monstrosities, hoovering up loot, dazzling fellow adventurers with grandiose spells, instilling fear into the hearts of our enemies, and preventing Hell from consuming the world. Not literally, of course – we are referring to Blizzard...

Preview Digging Deep into the Trenches in Valiant Hearts: The Great War on PS3 and PS4
War and leash
Ubisoft broke new ground in 2011 with its innovative UbiArt Framework game engine, a technology which allows artists to easily create assets and embed them into interactive environments. We’ve already seen it used to brilliant effect in the recent Rayman games, and since then people have been crying out for it to be leveraged in more...
Review Dragon Fantasy: Book II (PlayStation 3)
Less is more
A direct sequel to Dragon Fantasy: Book I, Dragon Fantasy: Book II continues the story of Ogden and his party. It's still full of cheeky humour, silly dialogue, and old school JRPG gameplay – but does it improve enough upon its predecessor? Developer Muteki Corporation could have easily stuck to what it had already created with the...
Weirdness Saints Row IV Conveniently Cashes GATV Add-On Next Week
Smooth move
Considering that the Saints Row series started life as a cheap Grand Theft Auto knock-off, it’s amazing how much the franchises have diverged. While the previous instalment in Rockstar’s sandbox series adopted a more realistic guise, Volition Software’s own property has backflipped off the side of a cliff wearing a tutu. Still,...

One of many blockbuster titles in Ubisoft’s stable adopting their second screen experience initiative, the potential for Watch_Dogs’ iOS "H_ide" app is high — and in a game where you can hack everything, you’re not quite as unhackable as you might think. At Ubisoft’s Digital Days 2013 event in...
