News The Last of Us to Turn the Hero Archetype Upside Down
Brave new world
The Last of Us’ gruff protagonist, Joel, is not a stereotypical hero by any means.

The voice actor – known for his work in BioShock: Infinite and

News Live Action Mass Effect 3 Trailer Debuts
Save us Shepard
This live action Mass Effect 3 trailer is largely what you’d expect; a cinematic soundtrack backs scenes of desperate families in tears as the Reapers arrive. There’s no need to worry though, because Commander Shepard’s on the scene. Come on – we don’t even need to play Mass Effect 3 to know everything will be ok. It will...
News ESRB Rates Darkstalkers 3 for PS3 & Vita
Game bites back
America's ratings board the ESRB has slapped a T for Teen on Darkstalkers 3 for PlayStation 3 and Vita — a game that Capcom's yet to announce.

News Binary Domain Outlines Multiplayer Mechanisms
Being human helps

News Visceral's Jack the Ripper Game Could Have Been Great
Wasn't to be
Shortly after putting a big bloody bow on the original Dead Space, Visceral Games started work on a new title called The Ripper. The title was being designed for HD consoles – like the PlayStation 3 – and starred London’s most mysterious murderer, Jack the Ripper, working as a vampire hunter. The project was never properly...
News Meet Max Payne 3's Latest Death Dealer
Built like a tank
Rockstar’s used the “shove media down your throat” approach to its recent titles alarmingly well, but we get the feeling that when Max Payne 3 was delayed earlier in the year, the developer’s PR team was left scrambling for new footage to pad out the months until the game's new release. The team "brilliantly"...
News Medal of Honor Warfighter is Out in October
Not the best subtitle

News Jet Set Radio to Tag PlayStation Network
Bringing the Beat back
SEGA is preparing to bring much-loved Dreamcast title Jet Set Radio — aka Jet Grind Radio to PlayStation Network. The publisher embedded a short teaser video on its blog, with the simple title "Guess Who's Back?" The answer, it would seem, is "everyone from Jet Set Radio." No price, release date or...
News Binary Domain Turns Up the Melodrama
There's been a terrible mistake
Surely Binary Domain can’t get any campier? In the game’s latest trailer, a partially exposed robot learns about his mechanical internals via the reflection of an arrogant idiot's sunglasses. Bad times. He then goes on to get his head blasted in by about 15 pistol rounds, and his carcass transported away in a...
News Sony Pulls in Western Studios to Aid The Last Guardian
Working on technical issues
The Last Guardian’s troubled development is well documented. But Sony’s made some bold decisions in order to help get the game back on track.

While that date’s still some time away, Gearbox wants you to pledge your interest in the title early by rewarding all...
News Take-Two Trademarks GTA TV
Don't tell the Daily Mail
With the exception of Call of Duty, Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto is about the only franchise in the world big enough to command its own television channel. And even then we’re pretty sure it would fill out its programming schedule with Teleshopping ads promoting the Jack LaLanne power juicer. But what’s this got to do...

News Naughty Dog Not Working on PlayStation Vita
Consolation

News Co-Op Shade Survival Mode Sloping into Uncharted 3
Emerging from the shadows
Naughty Dog’s announced a new co-operative mode for its PS3 exclusive blockbuster, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. Unfortunately, beyond the name – Shade Survival – and an infuriatingly cryptic screenshot, the developer’s failed to share any specific details about the addition. Joystiq hypothesises that the mode...

News EA Job Ad Hints at Crysis 3
But can your console run it?
What did we say earlier about job ads leading to leaks? Someone get EA on the phone, because the US mega publisher is the latest to fall foul of the media’s eager eyes.

News Saints Row: The Third Sends Gangstas into Space
Keeping it classy
If you can’t get enough of Saints Row: The Third’s general wackiness and potty humour, then THQ’s got a treat for you; the open-world title’s latest DLC pack, Gangstas in Space, is set to take off next week on the PlayStation Store for $6.99. The content revolves around the Boss and new character Jenny Jaros who attempt to...
News Pimp Your Ride with Twisted Metal
No sign of Westwood
It’s been a few days since Twisted Metal skidded onto US PlayStation 3s, and so you’re probably getting a little fed up with the standard liveries.

News Atlus Teaser Hints At Global Persona Fighter Release
Mystery solved
When Atlus sent an image of a black rectangle out to its “Faithful” mailing list last night, many assumed the publisher had made a mistake. But Destructoid wasn’t having any of it, and after fiddling with the image’s black levels, uncovered the even more mysterious message “Stay Tuned”. Readers then pointed out that the...
Rumour Black Ops 2 Listing Uncovered on Amazon
State the obvious
In a move that will almost certainly surprise no one, a listing for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 has supposedly been spotted on Amazon France. Local website, GameBlog.fr, captured a screenshot of the listing before it was swiftly removed, a development which has prompted something of a fallout between the site and Activision’s...

Less quantity, greater quality
Bethesda’s aiming to rein in the amount of DLC it produces for PlayStation 3 mega RPG, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, with the hope of increasing each pack’s overall quality.

Shoryuken

While the Japanese publisher’s being coy about specific details, a single screenshot shows Asura facing off...

News Yakuza: Dead Souls Unwinds with Pachinko
Even the Yakuza need a break
The Yakuza franchise has always been stacked with goofy mini-games, and you’d be foolish to think that a zombie epidemic would break that trend. No, the upcoming Yakuza: Dead Souls will be packed to the brim with quirky distractions such as fishing, table-tennis and, erm, pachinko. And yes, for those curious, all of...
News Fresh Amazing Spider-Man Footage Swings Online
Web slinger
Spider-Man 2 is by far one of our favourite PlayStation 2 games. The open-world action title was phenomenally well polished compared to the production values of most other movie tie-ins, and so we’re hoping that Activision and Beenox’s upcoming The Amazing Spider-Man reboot can match up to the quality of its licensed predecessor. It...

Talking Point Do We Need PlayStation 4 Yet?
The future is... when?
Recently we looked at The Future of PlayStation, and if there's one topic constantly hammering itself to the top of news sites it's which new home consoles might appear at the 2012 E3 Expo. We know that a new console from Microsoft is a possibility and Nintendo’s Wii U is a definite, but Sony has previously stated many times...
News God of War IV Evidence Mounts
Call a plumber
God of War IV rumours are becoming as regular as clockwork. The latest leak comes courtesy of the online resume of House of Moves animator David Thornfield, which referenced the unannounced title.

News Get a Glimpse of Modern Warfare 3's Overwatch Map
Taking it to the rooftop
Skip past this trailer’s lousy attempt at humour and you’ll be rewarded with a first look at Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s latest DLC map. Dubbed Overwatch, the stage takes place in a construction site atop a New York skyscraper – which even the cynics have to admit sounds pretty neat. We’d love to give you a...
News Assassin's Creed: Revelations to Get Desmond DLC
More Nolan North
Looks like Ubisoft has a fresh batch of single-player DLC in development for Assassin’s Creed: Revelations. A new set of achievements – uncovered by, erm, XBOX360A – references block-based platforming, suggesting there’s more modern day Desmond content on the cards. Naturally, no release date or pricing for the downloadable...
News Binary Domain Trailer Makes a Case for Native Voice Acting
Cringe worthy
The Yakuza franchise gets away with its daft dialogue and silly plotlines because SEGA doesn’t even bother hiring voice-actors anymore. (We’re ignoring Eliza Dushku’s turn in the original title for obvious reasons.) It’s a shame, then, that SEGA hasn’t extended the same faith to Binary Domain – a title developed by the...
News Street Fighter X Tekken Line-Up Locked Down
Final round - ready?
Capcom's finally confirmed the full roster for crossover scrapper Street Fighter X Tekken ahead of its launch early next month. Street Fighter stalwarts M.

News Japanese Sales Charts: Gravity Rush Unable to Stop Dwindling Vita Sales
Newton's law
Like the falling apples that formulated Sir Isaac Newton’s theory of gravity, the release of Gravity Rush – known as Gravity Daze domestically – could not thwart the dwindling numbers for Sony’s new handheld in Japan. The snazzy handheld – which releases worldwide next week – managed to sell just 13,939 units, its lowest...

What's next?
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” joked Sony Worldwide Studios’ jovial executive, Shuhei Yoshida, when quizzed about the PlayStation 4 earlier in the year.

News Online Stability Patch Races Into Gran Turismo 5 This Week
Still getting updated
Gran Turismo 5 might not have launched in the best shape possible, but it’d be hard to criticise Polyphony Digital for the post-release support it’s offered for the simulation racer.

News Binary Domain Takes the Fight Online
Connected chaos
We’re hopelessly excited for Binary Domain, we really are. But the online component’s pretty meaningless to us, and this trailer affirms our ambivalence. Sure the gun-play looks solid, the maps look cool and the game modes seem interesting; but is anyone really going to choose to play Binary Domain over Call of Duty or...
