As if it wasn't already obvious, we're dealing with...
News The ESRB Unmasks Batman: Arkham Knight's Mature Rating
Sequel sounds gritty
Batman's gone a bit bloody in the upcoming Arkham sequel, Batman: Arkham Knight. Last month, game director Sefton Hill stated that the release had been awarded an M rating by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board, which understandably came as a bit of a shock to many would-be buyers. At the time, Hill pinned the reasoning on...
News UK Sales Charts: Dying Light Delay Doesn't Stop It From Outselling The Order: 1886 and Evolve
Definitely not dead
In some pretty impressive news, sandbox zombie adventure Dying Light has managed to outsell both The Order: 1886 and Evolve at retail in the UK, despite the physical version of the game being delayed. The digital edition of Techland's undead romp released a month ago, but clearly that hasn't deterred the hordes of shufflers...

Push Rewind PS4 Firmware Updates, Helldivers, and Project Morpheus

Due out from 24th March, the add-on will be available day and date with Borderlands: The Handsome Collection...
News Tales from the Borderlands Spins Another Yarn This Month
Dancin', dancin'
It's taken what feels like an eternity, but Telltale will finally open its claptrap and tell some new Tales from the Borderlands this month. Announced during Gearbox's panel at PAX East 2015 earlier today, Episode Two will debut the week of 17th March, which presumably means that Europe will get it a day later, when the PlayStation...
News Don't Rule Out Dead Space for the PS4 Just Yet
There's always Peng
Dead Space was undoubtedly one of the most promising new properties of the previous generation, but after a spectacular inaugural entry, the survival horror series started to go off the boil. Isaac Clarke's stomp across the Sprawl in sequel Dead Space 2 was fine, but it lacked the claustrophobic feel of its predecessor...
News PSN Gets Attacked Every Single Day, Says Sony
"It's a constant battle"
Credit where credit's due: the PlayStation Network has been very stable these past few months. While there were regular outages over the holidays, we're yet to report on any significant downtime in 2015, which is, of course, the way that it should be. Spare a thought, however, for the engineers working hard to make that...

Rumour Street Fighter V Will Throw a Fireball at the PS4 Next Spring
Nash to know
Street Fighter V may not be far away, if a deleted comment on Capcom's official Unity blog is to be believed. In an attempt to flog some PAX East promotional gear, the publisher unwittingly mentioned that the PlayStation 4 and PC exclusive fighter will throw a fireball next spring. The vague release window has since been removed,...
Round Up Final Fantasy XV PS4 Demo Impressions Hit the Highway
Emo cid

Review Zombie Army Trilogy (PlayStation 4)
Just a little off the top
Zombies have been the perennial whipping boys of the shooter genre for a while now, and it was inevitable that at some point they'd get mashed up with Nazis – second in the cannon fodder league table – to create the ultimate guilt-free targets to blast away at. While Zombie Army Trilogy on the PlayStation 4 is far from...
News The Witcher 3's Newest Gameplay Walkthrough Is Superb
Man versus myth

Cutting a new set of keys
There are plenty of things that excite us about PlayStation right now, but the third-party productions team is one area that has all of Push Square Towers giddy.

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 59
Sod's law
And we're back with another edition of WAYP. It's a short and sweet entry this time (it's been one helluva week), but sometimes the best things come in small packages – at least, that's what this author is always telling himself.

News Sony: We Want Project Morpheus to Be Social Like the Wii U
On another planet
Virtual reality faces many challenges, but one of the biggest problems that it has to overcome is the sense of isolation that the experience inherently demands.

News Dragon Ball XenoVerse Server Issues Continue, But Bandai Namco Promises It's Working Hard
Kakaroooooot!
This is turning into a Dragon Ball saga of its own, isn't it?

Indeed, at the time of writing, we're still having trouble connecting to the game's multiplayer lobbies, and this...
News PS4 Firmware Update 2.50 Will Let You Use Circle to Confirm
Don't get cross
We're a bit backwards in the West – and not because One Direction keep getting to the top of the charts. If you think about the symbols on the DualShock controller, circle was clearly intended as a confirmation button, while X should be used to cancel. However, time has taught us to switch these commands around – even if the fine...

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 has been one of the biggest surprises of the year so far, but what's not a shock is that the Season Pass is broken on the PlayStation 4.

News Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo Are Working Together to Stop DDoS Attacks
Console camaraderie
We may all have different gaming preferences, but we can probably all agree that DDoS attacks suck.

News Toukiden: Kiwami Looks Pretty and Peaceful on PS4
And relax
Toukiden: Kiwami's coming to both the Vita and the PlayStation 4, but publisher Koei Tecmo is keen to show off its visual prowess on Sony's newest home console.

News Elite: Dangerous Will Fly to PS4 Eventually
Galaxy crash
Frontier's intergalactic escapade Elite: Dangerous was announced for consoles this week, but there was no mention of the PlayStation 4.

Stupid game names, robots, Goku, and pottery
February's always an interesting month.

News Shadow of Mordor Gets Its Blood Soaked Hands on Another Game of the Year Award
Talion to the next
We remember the days when people just weren't sure about Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.

Indeed, its creation even went on to win our 2014 staff Game of the Year vote, along with a slew...
News Rock Band 4 Brings the Band Back Together on PS4 This Year
Amped up
Where there's smoke, there's fire – and there's been a Victorian-style smog wafting out of Massachusetts-based developer Harmonix of late.

It'll feature all of the tracks from previous versions, and,...
Reaction Project Morpheus Seems Impressive, But Also a Hard Sell
Hot and cold

By all accounts, Project Morpheus is pretty impressive. Not only has Sony created a piece of hardware that's on par – if not better – than the other devices in the space, but it's also built some compelling demos that really show off what the unit's capable of. With a rapidly approaching 2016 release date, though, price and...

Review Starwhal: Just the Tip (PlayStation 4)
Off the (nar)whal
It's hard to sell someone on a niche indie game when there are so many bigger, more popular options out there – but we're going to try anyway.

Time to take charge
While there are definitely people still disgruntled with the PlayStation 4's lineup, we've been impressed by the sheer variety of software that's hit Sony's latest machine.

Senzu bean
Dragon Ball XenoVerse has had a bit of a rocky start.

Sony overhauls its ambitious add-on
