Hands On Everybody's Golf VR May Be the Hardest Hot Shots Yet
Fore the pros
Hot Shots Golf has always traded on its instant accessibility, but new entry Everybody’s Golf VR looks set to have a significant learning curve. Make no mistake: this has not suddenly become a simulator – it’s still a colourful, arcade romp. But by favouring motion controls over the click-click-click format of old, it can be...
News Trails of Cold Steel 3 Trailer Shows Main Characters and Their English Voices
The new Class VII
Hold on a second, we're getting another Trails of Cold Steel III trailer before the second game has even arrived on PlayStation 4? Madness.

News Persona 5 Save Data Won't Work With Persona 5: The Royal
Just in case you were wondering
If you were holding out hope that your Persona 5 save data will somehow carry over to Persona 5: The Royal, we've got bad news for you: it won't. Given that The Royal is, seemingly, a much expanded adventure as well as a heavily tweaked one, the confirmation comes as little surprise, but it's still nice to know for...

"We've doubled down on the product"
This news probably shouldn't come as too big of a surprise, but BioWare's troubled sci-fi shooter ANTHEM doesn't appear to be selling all that well. During its recent finance call, publisher EA said the game hasn't met its expectations. When you consider that servers are struggling to fill up due to a lack of...
News Hidden Destiny 2 Exotic Quest Brings Back the Outbreak Prime
A great primer for the upcoming season
One of the best things about Bungie's take on the looter shooter is the air of mystery that surrounds it all.

New game on the way?
It's been a heck of a long time since we've heard anything regarding Super Monkey Ball.

News Latest ANTHEM Patch Removes Cosmetic Rewards That Were Added After Launch
Another one bites the dust
It's obvious that ANTHEM has both a content and loot problem, but it probably doesn't help matters when developer BioWare is removing cosmetic rewards from Stronghold chests itself.

Subscription service priced and detailed
After much speculation and whole lotta rumours (some of them originating all the way back in 2017), EA has finally confirmed that its subscription service, EA Access, is coming to PlayStation 4.

Game of the Month Best PS4 Games of April 2019
Ghosts, birds, blood, and freakers

News UK Sales Charts: Days Gone Retains Top Spot for Second Week
Boozer Britain
Days Gone has retained its position at the top of the UK sales charts for a second successive week, following a not too dramatic 60 per cent drop in sales week-over-week.

Review Shakedown: Hawaii - Money Makes This Open World Go Round
Making a killing
Shakedown: Hawaii is the follow-up to Vblank Entertainment's Retro City Rampage, and as such, it shares a lot of the same DNA. Both are pixelated, open world action games that riff on old-school Grand Theft Auto, and both took a long time to make. However, while this new adventure will be very familiar to anyone who's played RCR, it...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 270
Go to bed
A whopping 270 issues? Wow, that’s over four years of WAYP – and we still haven’t missed a single week.

Robert Ramsey, Deputy Editor: Much to the...
News Child of Light Director Isn’t Working on a Sequel
It couldn't be a game as a service
While never officially announced, a sequel to Ubisoft's Child of Light has been hinted at a couple of times.
