News One Piece Meets Real Life in Latest Burning Blood Trailer
Reality fighters
One of the big draws of any licensed fighting game is that you're able to cobble together clashes between your favourite characters, and we suppose that's a main point behind One Piece: Burning Blood's latest Japanese trailer. Now, while we like a good gameplay video as much as anyone else, we reckon that there's still room for...
Review Salt and Sanctuary (PS4)
Salt in the wounds
You will learn to detest the word "obliterated". This dramatic yet depressingly apt term has been given the job of informing you that you've just died, and it precedes yet more words that you'll also come to hate. For example, the statement, "Alas, you have lost 7480 salt forever" will see that you clasp your head in your angry,...
News Naughty Dog Discusses the Growing Pains That Shaped Uncharted 4
Too old for this

Critical hit
Tom Clancy's The Division has started life impressively well in Japan, topping the software charts on PlayStation 4.

Elsewhere, the new Summon Night game...
News Almost Every Big PS4 Game Discounted in Gigantic EU PSN Sale
Better than a chocolate egg
"It just keeps going", editor Sammy Barker remarked upon checking out the EU PlayStation Store's gigantic Easter sale - and he's not wrong.

News Until Dawn: Rush of Blood Takes You on a Repulsive Roller-Coaster Ride
PlayStation VR frightfest scores new screens
Well, it's not the Until Dawn sequel that we were all hoping for, but as fans of the fledgling franchise, we hope that forthcoming PlayStation VR spin-off Until Dawn: Rush of Blood delivers to the degree that it doesn't sully the burgeoning brand. To coincide with last night's press conference, Sony has...

News Star Wars Battlefront VR Experience Coming Exclusively to PlayStation VR
Go to a galaxy far, far away
If the announcement of PlayStation VR's price had competing virtual reality manufacturers on the ropes, then confirmation that Sony's teamed up with EA Games and Lucasfilm on an exclusive Star Wars Battlefront experience may as well be the knock-out blow. It's unclear exactly what guise this game will take, but DICE is...
News PlayStation VR Worlds Fuses Five Unique Virtual Reality Experiences Exclusively on PS4

Following the big hubbub brewed up by Microsoft regarding its vague statements on cross-platform play between Xbox and other platforms, people went a bit nuts - and many jumped the gun entirely. However, GameSpot's actually managed to get a response of sorts from Sony, and without inflating our egos, the company's...
News You'll Need to Supply Your Own PlayStation Camera for VR
Bring your own PlayStation Move controllers, too
With the good news out of the way, it's time for some bad news to filter out. PlayStation VR will be $399.99 at launch as reported earlier this evening – but it won't come with a PlayStation Camera. This is a required component, so it's strange that Sony's not bundling it. Fortunately, you can pick...

These are not the McDroid's you're looking for
McDroid can be summed up as such: a real-time strategy tower defence crossover with the attitude and style of Borderlands, the charm of Star Wars, and frustrating difficulty spikes of Atlus' Devil Survivor. It takes a tired genre that has been well and truly done to death and mixes it all in with...
News Naughty Dog PS4, PS3 Games Are Going Cheap on US PSN

Reaction Will Sony Enable Cross-Network Play on PS4? Well, It Already Does
Building bridges

News Former Street Fighter V Rage Quitter Is Now Ranked 29th in the World
F.A.N.Gtastic
Last week, we reported on a Japanese Street Fighter V player known as World_Combo, who was one of the first two players to reach the Super Platinum rank online.

News Hollow Realization Is Shaping Up to Be the Best Sword Art Online Game Yet
Fingers crossed
Going by what we've seen of Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization so far, this could potentially be the best game that the property has spawned. While Sword Art Online Re: Hollow Fragment and Sword Art Online: Lost Song are both enjoyable role-playing adventures, they certainly aren't perfect, so we're hoping that this upcoming...
News A New Oddworld Game Is Set to Reimagine Abe in 2017
Abe's oddity
Our earliest memory of the Oddworld franchise comes courtesy of a short PSone demo based on the very first game - and at the time, we thought it was absolutely mental. In fact, we still think that Oddworld is mental, but we've grown more accustomed to the weird and wonderful property over the years. 2015 saw the release of Oddworld:...

Turtle power
Platinum Games' take on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles hits PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 this May.

The big guns
This was a big week for new releases, with both The Division and Hitman arriving on the PlayStation 4.

You'll find...
News Apollo 11 Takes One Small Step for Man, One Giant Leap for Mankind on PlayStation VR
Fly me to the moon
Perhaps one advantage of virtual reality that's being overlooked is its educational value.

Apollo 11 looks to be the first of these: an authentic space-based voyage...

News Sony's Been Prepping for E3 2016 Since the Start of the Year

Neverquest
The next game in Daybreak Games' Everquest franchise, planned MMO Everquest Next, has been cancelled.

Hardware Review Hori Real Arcade Pro 4 Kai - Stick Joy
King of the Kontrollers
Capcom may have slightly fumbled the launch of Street Fighter V, but there's no denying that the title is a formidable addition to the company's long and proud lineage in a genre that it has arguably dominated since the early 90s.

Review Samurai Warriors 4: Empires (PS4)
For clan and country
In recent years, Warriors games have been criticised for being a little too prolific. To those who don't care for musou titles, it must seem like there's a new Warriors release every other month, but fans have always stuck by Omega Force and its seemingly timeless hack and slash formula. However, even for the Omega Force...

News Hitman PS4 Plops Platinum Trophy in a Nearby Port-a-Potty
Is that it, man?
The bizarre Trophy inconsistencies continue, as Hitman – the stealth series' big-budget episodic reboot – will not pack a Platinum.

Review Hitman: Intro Pack (PS4)
Making a killing
When Hitman's release schedule was revealed, a lot of people weren't happy about its episodic nature. Many fans feared that the game would be a massive disappointment akin to the likes of Hitman Absolution, but that is most definitely not the case. On the surface, the Intro Pack may seem a bit steep at its £11.99/$14.99 price –...

News Fallout 4's New PS4 Patch Preps the Game for DLC This Week
Atom bomb baby
Update 1.4 for Fallout 4 will arrive on PlayStation 4 this week, according to Bethesda.

News Thumper Will Make Your Eyes Bleed in PlayStation VR
Tunnel vision
Take it from someone who's played it: Thumper is freakin' rad.

It's nauseating insanity. And soon you'll...
