News If Carlsberg Made Fallout Beer, It Would Be Available from Amazon Now
And it is
While this author would probably prefer an ice cold Nuka Cola, Carlsberg appears to have put a jagged lid on the Fallout 4 hype by announcing that a range of branded beers are available from Amazon.co.uk now.

News Fallout 4 Won't Have Performance Problems on PS4, Says Bethesda
Do you believe?
Let's face it: the big question regarding Fallout 4 right now isn't whether it'll be a good game - it's whether it'll actually run well on the PlayStation 4. Bethesda's open world titles have a history of bad performance on PlayStation, with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fallout 3 both launching in shamefully shoddy condition on...

Control specialist handling Remote Play functionality
It's a strange sight, isn't it? Fallout 4's easily one of the most anticipated games left to release this year, and it just seems weird to see it on a handheld display. Like all PlayStation 4 titles, you'll be able to stream the post-apocalyptic role-playing release to your Vita via Remote Play,...
News The Elder Scrolls Online Orsinium Map Is Unsurprisingly Massive
Plus new screenshots from the expansion
The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited is big.

The good news is that it's about to get...

Feature Five Things Fallout 4 Needs to Get Right on PS4
Fall in, fall out
Blockbuster releases are strange things.

News Fallout 4's Charismatic Character Building Is Crucial when Coexisting with Creepy Creatures
Charmed, we're sure
Wow, it's time for another Fallout 4 character building video already? Putting the C in S.P.E.C.I.A.L. is charisma - an attribute that's of great importance to those post-apocalyptic survivors who don't necessarily like to shoot their way out of every sticky situation. Charisma allows you to trade more effectively, persuade both...
News There Won't Be Any Console Exclusive Extras in Fallout 4
Thank the Ghouls
Sony's been signing deals left and right since the start of this generation, locking down exclusive incentives for its system. However, one release that it's failed to partner with is irradiated role-playing game Fallout 4, which seems to be sitting not-so subtly in Xbox's camp. Does that mean that the Redmond firm will be giving...

We've seen worse
Fallout 4's Xbox One product page - yes, we know - states that the digital version of the upcoming open world title weighs in at just over 28GB, which means that you can expect the game to take up around the same amount of space on the PlayStation 4.

News Wolfenstein: The New Order Star Says There's More on the Way
B.J.'s Back-owicz
Bad news for Adolf Hitler: it sounds like a Wolfenstein: The New Order sequel is in the works. It's hardly a surprise, as Machine Games knocked it out of the park with its previous entry and expansion The Old Blood, but it's nice to get a bit of confirmation – even if it doesn't come courtesy of an official source. Instead,...
News Fallout 4's Original Soundtrack Should Be Fantastic
Composer is bringing new sounds to the wasteland
Everyone always seems to remember the licensed radio tracks from Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas whenever the series' audio is brought up, but we'd argue that the original soundtracks actually stole the show from time to time. Both titles sported very haunting scores that really captured the dusty,...

Is probably being paid in snacks
Fallout 4's going to have quite a few companions that can be convinced to join you on your adventures, and while we have no doubt that there'll be some colourful characters up for grabs, everyone loves a bit of Dogmeat. Okay, so that sentence didn't quite come out the way that we planned, but we're eager to see the...
News Perception Is the Point of Fallout 4's Newest Video
Don't get too cocky there, sport
Fallout 4's educational video series is back, and this time it tackles perception.

It goes without saying, but the wacky humour is back and it's actually pretty...
News Three Dog Voice Actor Not Returning for Fallout 4
Insert Three Dog howl here
It looks like Erik Todd Dellums, the voice behind Three Dog in Fallout 3, won't be filling the airwaves of Fallout 4's wasteland.

Review Dishonored: Definitive Edition (PS4)
Not Attano improvements
It's almost been three years since Dishonored snuck onto the PlayStation 3, and when we donned the daunting mask of Corvo Attano back then to creep through Dunwall without so much as killing a soul or making a sound, we still regard Arkane Studios' runaway success with much-deserved admiration.

News Fallout 4 Features More Voiced Dialogue Than Any Other Bethesda Game
More than Fallout 3 and Skyrim combined
Seeing as Fallout 4's wasteland is, well, you know, a bit barren, we suppose its inhabitants have generally got a lot of free time on their hands.

News Fallout 4 Definitely Has a Chance of Outselling the Mighty Skyrim, According to Bethesda
Onwards and upwards
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was an absolutely huge hit for Bethesda. The studio's best selling release of all time, it's safe to say that Skyrim played a big part in putting role-playing games on the map for many a gamer back when it launched in 2011. However, even with all of its accolades, the tale of the Dragonborn could well...
News Don't Worry If Crafting Isn't Your Thing, Fallout 4 Won't Make You Do It

It's already been established that Fallout 4 isn't the best looking game, but if there's one thing that we really like about it, it's the art direction.

Review The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited (PS4)
Sweetroll-playing
