Review Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (PS4)
Mass defect
Microtransactions. Bleh. If there's one word that can put a foul taste in people's mouths, it's that. Disappointingly, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare has them, and the game is much worse off for it. Whereas in previous entries you could spend money simply to get gun skins and cosmetic items in loot boxes, now you need to spend money on...
Feature 10 PS4 Games from 2016 to Get Stuck into Over the Winter Holidays
Cosy nights ahead
Brrrr. It's getting quite cold, isn't it? Summer only seems like it was yesterday, but here we are moving into the middle of November and we've got the heating turned up full blast in the Push Square office. Winter can undoubtedly be a bit of a downer, but there is a bright side to these cold, dark nights: an excess of quality...

News Mass Effect: Andromeda Does Away with Paragon and Renegade Dialogue Choices
Plus other juicy details
Game Informer's latest issue, featuring Mass Effect: Andromeda, is now out in the wild. Naturally, this means that people all over the 'net are pulling all the information that they can from the cover story, letting us know what we can expect from the sci-fi sequel. It's probably for the best, because BioWare clearly isn't...
News Mass Effect: Andromeda Looks Space Ace in New Screenshots
Out of this world
Yesterday's trailer may not have given much away with regards to Mass Effect: Andromeda's gameplay, but at least EA and BioWare have released some new screenshots for us to gawk at. As you'd expect, the sci-fi sequel looks great, with the move to the Frostbite engine giving way to some luscious looking visuals. That sandy planet is...
News Mass Effect Andromeda Wants to Flog You a Remote Control Mako
Nomad soul
Mass Effect Andromeda, the space opera from BioWare that we've seen less than five minutes of gameplay of despite it supposedly launching next spring, has an uber-expensive collector's edition available for pre-order. Chumps with too much change can stump up $199.99 to snag a copy of the game (in a steelbook case, no less) alongside a...
News PlayStation VR Is Now Sold Out at Amazon UK Until 2017
Virtual insanity
If you were hoping to snag a PlayStation VR headset from Amazon UK prior to Christmas… Well, don't even bother trying: the site has exhausted all of its stock until Early 2017. While it temporarily said a similar thing about the PlayStation 4 Pro, it appears it's dead serious about Sony's virtual reality accessory – the product...
Video Rise of the Tomb Raider Does PS4 Pro Graphics Options Right
Quite Crofty
Who'd have thought that PlayStation 4 black sheep Rise of the Tomb Raider would become the best example of graphical options on the PS4 Pro? The game – which allows you to select from three very distinct modes – not only caters to 4K television owners with a stunning Ultra High-Definition version, but also includes two 1080p toggles...
Video Does Gran Turismo Sport Look Better on PlayStation VR Than DriveClub?
Yes, it does – on PS4 Pro, anyway
Evolution Studios clearly worked incredibly hard on DriveClub VR, but the results are… Not great. The defunct developer did a great job shoehorning the entire original onto PlayStation VR, but the headset just couldn't match the studio's ambition, balancing crystal clear dashboards against blurry circuits. It's...
News UK Sales Charts: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Registers Near 50 Per Cent Launch Decline
Crash landing
First, the good news for Activision shareholders: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare has comfortably secured the second biggest UK launch of the year, falling just short of the week one numbers for FIFA 17. And now the bad news: the game has registered a 48.4 per cent decline compared to its predecessor, Call of Duty: Black Ops III. It's...
Review The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition (PS4)
Shout it louder
Like it or not, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim remains a landmark role-playing game. When it first arrived in 2011, it's no exaggeration to say that the last-gen version introduced a whole new audience to the genre. In many ways, developer Bethesda Game Studios had cracked it – Skyrim carefully walked the line between being an...
News Mass Effect: Andromeda Finally Gets a Proper Trailer
Now we're talking
Good lord, it's about time isn't it? BioWare has finally released a proper trailer for Mass Effect: Andromeda. Not a video full of concept art, not a CG teaser, not a vertical slice of alpha footage, but an actual trailer. And what do you know, it's actually pretty good - aside from the horribly cliched blackouts. Can we stop with...
News Mass Effect: Andromeda Leak Confirms 4 Player Co-Op
And here's the game's PS4 box art
It's N7 Day, which means that we're just hours away from getting our next look at Mass Effect: Andromeda. The excitement hasn't quite kicked in yet here at Push Square, but some good old fashioned leakage can be an effective remedy for lacking hype. Spotted by always eagle-eyed Twitter user Wario64, retailer Best...
Video Robinson: The Journey Walks with Dinosaurs on PlayStation VR
PS4 Pro footage of Crytek's prehistoric campaign
Wow, this is a looker! If you've been disappointed with the visual fidelity of PlayStation VR games, then Robinson: The Journey may just change your perception – especially when played on the PlayStation 4 Pro. The thick foliage and cavernous cliff-faces make for an immersive experience – and...
Video inFAMOUS: Second Son Lets You Pick Resolution or Framerate on PS4 Pro
Smokin'
While most of the games patched for the PlayStation 4 Pro focus on offering better resolutions, inFAMOUS: Second Son is one such title that lets you toggle between image quality and framerate. In this video, we show how Sucker Punch's popular PS4 exclusive is able to run at a near-locked 60 frames-per-second on Sony's supercharged hardware,...
Video PS4 Pro Is the Quietest PlayStation 4 to Date
Oh so quiet
A lot of people have been asking questions regarding the volume of the fan noise in the PlayStation 4 Pro, and we're happy to report that it's the quietest console in the range that Sony's released thus far. We obviously have to temper this observation by pointing out that we've only been using the console for a few days, and things...
News Akuma Is Street Fighter V's Next DLC Character
Playable at the PlayStation Experience
Recent sales data would suggest that Street Fighter V hasn't been performing well at all over the last few months, but Capcom's still marching on with its downloadable content plans. The game's initial batch of additional characters ended with Urien, and now the Japanese publisher has teased what's coming next...
Feature Should You Buy the PS4 Pro?
Early impressions on Sony's supercharged system
We've been playing around with the PlayStation 4 Pro for a few days now, and while we're not quite ready to review it yet, we have fiddled around with the supercharged format long enough in order to bring you some first-hand impressions. We're really against the clock here so can only apologise for the...
Video Watch Off-Screen Footage of PS4 Pro in Action
What's up, Pro?
You can't really show PlayStation 4 Pro off convincingly on a 1080p camera without HDR; Sony learned this the hard way at the console's reveal event. Still, we got to shoot some off-screen footage of several games taking advantage of the Japanese giant's new hardware, and you can see the results in the video embedded above.
Hands On Why Farpoint Should Be on Your PlayStation VR Wishlist
Take aim
Farpoint, the PlayStation VR exclusive from Impulse Gear, continues to really impress us. We went hands on with the title earlier in the year and really enjoyed the arcade-like first-person shooting, but running a similar demo on the PlayStation 4 Pro this week reminded us how much we're looking forward to the extraterrestrial blast-'em-up...
Video Let's Unbox the PS4 Pro, Shall We?
Oh go on then
We've got the PlayStation 4 Pro, though we can't say much about it until tomorrow. Then again, we did just put together a massive impressions piece, so maybe check that out while you wait. In the meantime, we are very much allowed to show you what's inside the packaging, so please enjoy this unboxing clip. Such original content, eh?
Swing king
The ability to amplify the emotional and physical reactions you have while playing a video game lies at the heart of what makes virtual reality so promising. In Windlands, a newly released first-person platformer, you'll be throwing yourself into the void as you grapple around a ruined civilisation high up in the sky, and it's safe to say...
Numa Numa nay
Just Dance: the worst part of every E3. Just Dance sometimes feels like the Ubisoft series no one can takes seriously – or even cares about anymore. This year's edition really doesn't add much in terms of gameplay or modes, but it's still solid. Firstly, the tracklist: there's a lot of variation this year, with modern hits like...
Hands On Quit Bitchin'! PS4 Pro Is a Big, Beautiful Step Forward
HDR you ready?
As we predicted a few months back, Sony's had a right job on its hands this holiday. Its two latest products – PlayStation VR and the PlayStation 4 Pro – are difficult to sell, because they need to be seen first-hand in order to be truly appreciated. We spent the best part of a year waxing lyrical about t
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 142
Play time
We're late, we're late… With another edition of WAYP. Sorry for the delay getting up this issue of your weekly Talking Point, but we're swamped here at Push Square Towers right now – apparently there are video games being released. Blimey! Alex Stinton, Reviewer: Shooty shooty bang bang! How many FPSs can one man play in a weekend?...
News Sombra's Finally Been Officially Announced for Overwatch
Holding out for a Hero
Sombra hacked BlizzCon's opening ceremony today in order to reveal herself to the world; it would have made for a grand entrance if the new Overwatch arrival hadn't leaked weeks ago. The character sports a Laura-inspired haircut (right, Street Fighter fans?) and comes packing a machine pistol, as well as the capability to hack...
News Good God! Titanfall 2 Looks Glorious in 1080p on PS4 Pro
Bot envy
Remember how we told you that PlayStation 4 Pro would bring "bullshot" level image quality to your living room on a 1080p television? Well, now we can prove it. Some stores have started selling Sony's supercharged system early, and that's resulted in some screenshot comparisons beginning to appear around the web. This Titanfall 2...
Feature Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare's Free PlayStation VR Mode Is Worth the Bandwidth
Do a barrel roll
This is a nice touch from Activision: everyone can download Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare's free Jackal Assault Experience virtual reality demo from the PlayStation Store now. There's no catch either; you don't need a pre-order or a Call of Duty game in your disc drive – it's scary that we have to clarify these things, but that's...
Video Days Gone on PS4 Pro May Be the Best Looking Game Ever
The broken road
It doesn't happen often in this industry anymore, but seeing a demo of Days Gone at Sony's big PlayStation 4 Pro showcase actually surprised us this week. The game looked pretty at E3 2016, no question – but running on the Japanese giant's supercharged hardware it's actually a candidate for the greatest looking game ever made. No...
News The Original Diablo Is Being Reborn in Diablo III
Rumoured Necromancer class coming next year
BlizzCon 2016 is underway, and Blizzard has wasted no time in revealing its future plans for Diablo III. To start with, the developer announced an update dubbed 'The Darkening of Tristram'. There aren't any real details on how this will all work just yet, but according to VentureBeat, the update will...
News Activision Talks Destiny 2 at Its Latest Financial Briefing
Light the way
Earlier in the year, Bungie revealed that there will indeed be a Destiny 2, but it won't be landing until 2017 - late 2017, we imagine. In other words, we've probably got a while to wait before we hear any concrete details, especially since Destiny is still alive and kicking. However, the sequel did get a mention during publisher...
Soapbox Skyrim Still Has Plenty to Offer Five Years On
Jacob Hull still loves Tamriel's Northern realm
Along with many, I'm of the opinion that CD Projekt Red's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the best – if not the best – open world role-playing game ever made. I mean, we gave it a rare 10/10 here on Push Square, after all. It improved the open world template in so many ways that make the genre...
Game of the Month Top 4 PlayStation Games of October 2016
Tanks, Titans, slimes, and psychedelic bugs
Wow, that was one heck of a busy month for us here at Push Square. October was jam packed with new releases, from your typical blockbusters to niche Japanese role-playing games and just about everything in between. And as if that wasn't bad enough, we were also buried under the avalanche that was the...
News PS4 Pro Sold Out Until After Christmas, Says Amazon UK
Dishonored bundle still available, though
Update (17:00): The standard PS4 Pro appears to be back in stock over on Amazon UK. We assume that the online retailer made a mistake with the listing earlier today. Still, a rather big error to make! Original story: If you're on the market for a PS4 Pro before Christmas and you love Amazon to bits, we hope...
News PS4 Pro Is Already Being Sold in Some Stores
Early doors
Sony's not dropping the PlayStation 4 Pro until next week, but stock is already in the retail channel, and that's leading to leaks.

The...

Faster than a samurai's slash
Just a short while after it was revealed that Sony will be publishing Nioh in North America and Europe, the PlayStation Maker has released an extended version of the action role-playing game's intruiging Tokyo Game Show trailer. It's worth mentioning that over on the video's YouTube page, the phrase "PS4 exclusive" is...

News Gran Turismo Sport May Have Finally Fixed the Series' Crap Sounding Cars
Exhausting
It's no secret that Gran Turismo, Sony's flagship racing series, has long suffered from poor audio work. The roaring engines found in similar speed-'em-ups usually make Gran Turismo's cars sound like toys rather than beastly automobiles - but developer Polyphony Digital may have finally turned things around with Gran Turismo Sport, says...

News Mafia III Is Somehow 2K Games' Fastest Selling Release
4.5 million copies shipped in one week

Trimming the hordes
Koei Tecmo's released seven minutes of English gameplay from upcoming hack and slasher Berserk and the Band of the Hawk.

Review Hitman: Episode 6 - Hokkaido (PS4)
Peak
So, it's all over: seven months in the making, Hitman is finally finished and all episodes are released. From the heights of stunning Sapienza to the lows of crummy Colorado, it's certainly been a journey – but does Hokkaido end up being a fitting swansong to an excellent game or a bad note to end on? We say, wholeheartedly, the former...

Second in command
Oooh, another Persona 5 character trailer has arrived. This time we get introduced to Ryuji, who seems to be the typically enthusiastic member of the group.

Review LEGO Harry Potter Collection (PS4)

Super
There's a 700MB patch available for Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2 on PlayStation 4 right now, and it's promising some nice improvements.

Feature How PS4 Pro Will Bring Bullshot Quality Visuals to Your Home
And on a 1080p TV
Whichever of our esteemed colleagues in the games industry coined the word 'bullshot' deserves a knighthood. The term – a combination of a curse word and 'screenshot' – refers to the practice of publishers releasing images not wholly representative of their games. Indeed, during the PlayStation 3 era particularly, it was common...
Tunnel vision
Earth's Dawn is a 2D, loot-heavy brawler with a post-apocalyptic theme. It's got a lot in common with Vanillaware titles such as Dragon's Crown and Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir, except it's keen to ditch pretty fantasy settings and settle for a ruined grey world complete with a gigantic underground tunnel system that's teeming with...

October2016
Tears for fears
As a dark comedy, Weeping Doll would be just about the most amusing game on PlayStation VR right now – and that's high praise considering that the platform already plays host to the genuinely hilarious Job Simulator and Headmaster.
