Podcast Episode 20 - Was Final Fantasy XV Worth the Wait?
Plus plenty of Christmas cheer
As we settle in for Christmas, and with Tarrant on holiday, Push Square's two biggest miseries talk Final Fantasy's best protagonist and Push Square's Final Fantasy XV review. Indie Bin is Housemarque's Alienation, but how does it stack up to the excellent Resogun? Following that, we have a little natter about what...
Null and void
Dungeon crawlers are a popular genre of games these days and there are plenty to experience on the PlayStation 4: The Binding of Isaac, Rogue Legacy, and Spelunky to name a few. However, none of these are as unique in style as Crystal Rift, which takes a very old-school approach to the experience. You control your adventurer from a...
News God of War's Promising PS4 Reboot Is Playable from Start to Finish
"A very exciting milestone"

Go download this game
In an industry so focused on creating ever larger and more expansive experiences, there's something to be said about the power of focus. Lara Croft Go is a title that's not focused on wowing the player with a billion different features that create the illusion of depth, instead opting for a simplified, handcrafted feel that...

Usually, this involves poking them with a stick until they come clean. Below,...
Video Lethal VR on PS4 Is Less Point Blank and More Point W*nk
Burn out
In a way, we kinda feel sorry for Three Fields Entertainment. The teensy indie start-up carries the burden of being "the Burnout guys", which means that expectations are raised every time it so much as farts. Of course, exposure is no bad thing for a team with about three employees to its name, but it also means the disappointment is all...
Review The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - Episode 2: Ties That Bind (Part Two) (PS4)
Oh, brother
Alright, the "twist" at the end of this episode is about as subtle as a meat cleaver to a Muertos' face, but The Walking Dead: A New Frontier is really moving at a breakneck pace. Having established a new cast of characters in the first half of this two-part premiere, Ties That Bind (Part Two) ratchets up the tension by plotting the fall...
News Suck the Blood from Vampyr's All-New PS4 Trailer
Life is strange
Vampyr is one of those rare games that should come with a 'Made for Sammy B' seal of approval.

Will it be good?...

Yakuza 6 and Final Fantasy XV still in Top Ten

The bog-standard box shifted some 70,031 units for the week, while the PS4 Pro added another 9,317 units on top – not enough to displace the...

Review The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - Episode 1: Ties That Bind (Part One) (PS4)
Family splatters
The first season of Telltale Games' comic book adaptation The Walking Dead propelled the episodic developer to superstardom; Lee's poignant tale of life after the apocalypse was lavished with end-of-year awards, and is looked upon fondly some four or so years after its original release – despite a laundry list of mechanical and...

News Ace Combat 7's Looking Top Gun on PlayStation VR
Turn and burn
Judging by the PSX 2016 trailer, Ace Combat 7 is going to be, well, ace – but it's nice to finally get a glimpse at the impending sequel's PlayStation VR mode. Unfortunately, this is separate to the main campaign, and will have its own standalone side-story and missions – but it's looking really good in this six or so minute...

Rumour Warner Bros Montreal Scraps Suicide Squad Game
Harley fin
Word is that Warner Bros Montreal has scrapped its long-in-development Suicide Squad game – despite it being in production for two years. The title – which would have seen you take control of the eponymous band of anti-heroes – was never formally announced, but was rumoured to be a co-op title. Apparently, it failed to impress...
News PlayStation's Christmas Video Sees Santa Scrap His Deliveries to Try PSVR
Bad influence
PlayStation's plopped out a daft Christmas video to celebrate the holidays over on its YouTube channel. In it, we see good old Saint Nick shimmy down someone's chimney only to shake his head at the meagre offering of a mince pie and a carrot. Sick of the same shite year in, year out, he decides that something has to change - so he...

Fully rested
In news that will surprise no one, Media Molecule's Dreams will not receive a beta before the end of the year.

That's because,...
News Grand Theft Auto V Has Sold an Astonishing 6 Million Units in the UK
Houser 'bout that, then?
Holy moly! Grand Theft Auto V has just smashed the six million units milestone in the UK alone, and that staggering statistic doesn't take into account digital sales.

Costumes, accessories, and New Game+

News The Division Suits Up with Sharper Graphics on PS4 Pro
People still play this?
We're going to let you in on a secret here: no one on our team voted for The Division in our Game of the Year ballot.

Perhaps by players, but not by the publisher: the game will be updated imminently with...
News Don't Let PETA See This PS4 Pinball Game
Squirrel flipkin
PETA is renowned for taking a dim view of the video game industry, so we doubt that this title about firing a poor squirrel across pinball tables is going to go down especially well. To be fair, this isn't a matter of mere animal cruelty: Momonga Pinball Adventures sees you assume the role of "flying squirrel Momo, and pals Panda...

A tale of swords
Ubisoft's keen to let people know that upcoming medieval mash-'em-up For Honor has got a single player campaign, as evidenced by this latest cinematic trailer.

News Here's a Look at the Bone-Crunching Combat of Yakuza 0 on PS4
Brutally beautiful
You don't know the joy of the Yakuza games until you've pulled off one of Kazuma Kiryu's disgustingly bad ass heat moves. Fortunately, SEGA's released a new trailer for Yakuza 0, which is full of the things. Watching them isn't quite as satisfying as actually using them, but you'll at least get a sense for the brutality that they...
News All of For Honor's Future Maps and Modes Will Be Free
New heroes may still cost you, though
There was a kerfuffle earlier this week when it was revealed that For Honor - Ubisoft's medieval slash-'em-up - would require a constant internet connection to play. However, as with most things in this industry, you've got to take the good with the bad; the good in this case being that much of the upcoming...

Comes to PS4 and Vita in spring
Koei Temco's released a five-minute animation for Toukiden 2. The clip features characters from the upcoming sequel as they battle against a rough looking 3D demon.

Mind the ghouls
Wow, it's been a while since we wrote about Minecraft, but its newly announced Fallout skin pack looks too cool to ignore. We spotted a ton of locations from the open world titles in the trailer that we've embedded above, including a rather blocky replica of the Prydwen from Fallout 4. The DLC is coming to the console versions of...
News Never, Ever Change Japanese Game Developers
Not safe for work, of course
School Girl Zombie Hunter. Is that not the most Japanese game name you've ever heard?

Way cool
Following confirmation that Shenmue III is about to enter full-production, developer Ys Net has released a brand new batch of screenshots showing off the upcoming sequel.

News Those Bad Ass Platinum PlayStation Cans Are Coming in January
And Uncharted 4 is being updated with 3D audio
We're pretty big fans of the Sony Gold Wireless headset here at Push Square.

So we're pretty stoked that the Japanese giant's finally dated the...

Ai had no idea
What in the bloomin' heck? We pride ourselves on knowing practically everything about PlayStation there is to know, but we had zero idea that the brand has a mascot named Ai Chan in Taiwan.

We reckon that the ad is pretty effective at demonstrating the title's new...
News Hectic Action Game Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star Launches on PS4, Vita Next Month
Never surrender
There are a lot of Japanese games launching in early 2017, but even though the start of the year is looking swamped, we'd recommend keeping an eye on Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star. A hack and slasher that's very Warriors-esque in its structure - featuring interconnected battlefields stuffed with grunts and boss enemies - The Umbral...

Befitting of a lady
The prim and proper Haru is the star of your latest Persona 5 character trailer, as she sips tea and shoots shadows in the face.

News Sony Reveals Winners of Japan's PlayStation Awards 2016
Prize pots
Sony's annual PlayStation Awards ceremony in Japan is a little bit weird, because it generally recognises commercial success ahead of critical acclaim.
