Game of the Month Top 4 PlayStation Games of January 2016
Puzzles, Vikings, zombies, and starving kids
It's the first Game of the Month article of 2016, which should set us up nicely for the many upcoming titles that lie ahead. In truth, January didn't boast a whole lot of blockbuster releases, but thankfully, a slew of smaller budget games were on hand to keep us entertained. Sure, you can probably guess...
News DOOM Blows Away PS4 in May
Hell yeah
Better start stocking up on ammo, because DOOM finally has a confirmed release date.

Fantastic plastic
At some point later this year, Europe and North America are getting their hands on a localisation of Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme VS-Force - a Vita action title that's stuffed with numerous playable suits from Japan's biggest mecha franchise.

News Free Farming Simulator Theme Is the Best on PS4 Barn None
Manure gon' want it
Hay-ters are going to hay-te, but we love Farming Simulator 15 like pigs love muck.

This is a static PlayStation 4 wallpaper so it's not a-maize-ing like others you may have...

Fortune's fool
The console wars may be awash with warriors angrily biting their thumbs, but the word star-cross'd springs to mind when observing the latest social media fad. This tragic tale of two adoring PlayStation and Xbox representatives actually did the Twitter rounds a couple of years ago, but it's made a comeback overnight – even prompting...
Review Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 (PS4)
Taken by storm
Supposedly the final game in the series, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 feels like a true labour of love from Japanese developer CyberConnect2 – a studio well known for its passion when creating titles based on existing properties. It's the end of an era for this 3D fighting franchise, then, but does this last hurrah bring...

The developer cited issues...
News Hitman's Beta Whacks PS4 Starting Next Week
PlayStation exclusive contracts seal the deal
Much has been said about Hitman's unorthodox episodic release schedule, but we reckon that – the aforementioned aside – the game's really shaping up great. We were lucky enough to get a behind-the-scenes demo of the assassination sim's Paris stage late last year, and we think that franchise fans are...
News Samurai Slasher Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae Bloodies PS4 This Month
Could be bloody good
Hectic hack and slash action title Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae is slicing its way onto PlayStation 4 later this month.

News Toukiden 2's Open World Welcomes You in First PS4 Screenshots
Fresh but familiar
Well, that was fast.

News Japanese Sales Charts: Dragon Quest Builders Demolishes the Competition on PS4, Vita
Dragon Quest does it again
We've always known that Dragon Quest Builders would be a huge deal in its native Japan. Anything to do with Square Enix's now legendary role-playing series tends to sell ridiculously well in the Land of the Rising Sun, and this latest spin-off is no different. The Vita version of the title topped the software charts,...
News Our First Real Look at Toukiden 2 Isn't Far Away
Omega forced
Toukiden 2 popped up at Sony's Tokyo Game Show last year, but we've heard very little since. We know that it's going to adapt an open world approach, and we're big fans of Toukiden: The Age of Demons and semi-sequel Toukiden: Kiwami, so needless to say, we're looking forward to seeing more of the next release. Fortunately, we may not...
News Almost Every EA Game Is Discounted In New European PSN Sale
Star Wars Battlefront, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and more
While it's nice that Europe's getting its own wave of PlayStation Store discounts starting today, it's a shame that it doesn't hold a candle to North America's latest sale, which boasts a very impressive amount of slashed software. Nevertheless, the Old World's deals certainly aren't anything...

Awakening
A really juicy week on the North American PlayStation Store this time, as Gravity Rush Remastered, Not a Hero, and Crypt of the Necrodancer all vie for your dollars.

News Get Digital with Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth's Launch Trailer
Digital beats, anyone?
As you may have gathered from the tagline, this latest Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth trailer's got some tasty beats. We've often heard, however, that the game's got a pretty great soundtrack, so it comes as no real surprise. In any case, this is your standard launch trailer stuff, but we do get to see some battle and exploration...

Opinion Firewatch's Paltry Five Trophies Prove That the System Needs Fixing
Platinum problems
Let's get one thing straight: Trophies are the least important thing when it comes to appraising a game. We'd recommend an amazing title even if it had no pots, because the act of actually playing a release is more important than the system-wide meta-game that surrounds it. Having said that, Trophies are an essential part of the...
News You Won't Get Bored of Naruto Storm 4's Great Opening Movie
A rockin' good time
There's something incredibly satisfying about an anime opening that gets it just right. Artwork and scenes from the show usually combine with a recently released Japanese rock or pop track, and when it all clicks, it gets you hyped up to watch the animation itself. Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 has its own opening...
Diplomatic immunity
Aptly titled, Not a Hero is a charismatic, side-scrolling shoot-'em-up in which you massacre mobsters, thugs, and other underworld villains in the name of BunnyLord – an anthropomorphic purple rabbit who is currently running for mayor. Phew. The title's core gameplay, on the other hand, isn't all that strange. First and...
News LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Becomes the Most Predictable Crossover Ever
Milk me BB one more time
Anyone else getting really tired of these LEGO games?

Space truckers
Space sims can be daunting affairs. Their mind boggling complexity often means that they're more at home on the PC than consoles, and anyone that's invested time in gaming black holes like Elite: Dangerous or EVE Online, will freely admit they're not to everyone's taste. So, what if you're the sort of person who wouldn't mind blasting...

Patch me up, doc
Fallout 4's patch 1.3 has emerged from its beta testing stage on PC, and will be available on PlayStation 4 later this week, Bethesda has revealed.

Soapbox The Witness on PS4 Is a Special Kind of Brilliant
Seeing things differently
There are puzzle games, and then there is The Witness.

I hated predecessor Braid with a passion, for starters – but all of this chatter about mind-numbing...

First Impressions The Division Shows Promise on PS4, But There Are Worries
Our thoughts after five hours with the beta
Every time that we have something good to say about Tom Clancy's The Division, there's a 'but' at the end of the statement.

Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 is packing some serious tech beneath its bikini bottoms.
