E3 2014 Uncharted 4: A Thief's End on PS4 Will Have You on the Edge of Your Seat
Naughty Dog expanding Drake's moveset
The teaser trailer for Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End that was shown right at the conclusion of Sony’s E3 press conference earlier this week may have been stunning, but it’s ended up raising more questions than it’s answered. Sure, we can assume that protagonist Nathan Drake is a little ol
E3 2014 Sony Shoulders the Blame for The Last Guardian Rollercoaster
"We owe the fans," says Yoshida
The Last Guardian has been culled and resurrected more times than we’ve yawned over the past 48 hours, but Sony Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida has reiterated categorically in an interview with Eurogamer.net that the title is still very much in production – it’s just not ready to be shown yet...
E3 2014 How Does the PS Vita's Lineup Look?
Not as bad as you think
Sony’s flagship portable platform may have barely received a mention during the platform holder’s E3 2014 press conference yesterday, but at least the firm hasn’t forgotten about the PlayStation Vita entirely.

Good or bad
Following Ubisoft's E3 2014 press conference, we thought we had seen all the heartbreaking trailers that we could possibly handle for one expo.

E3 2014 90s PC Classic Grim Fandango Revamped for PS4 and Vita
Back from the dead
The good old point-and-click adventure genre has been past its sell by date for a long time, excluding the recent revival of Broken Sword. This makes obtaining these gems of yore like collecting gold dust, leaving a generation robbed of this storytelling experience. One such title, 1998 PC classic Grim Fandango, is being excavated...

E3 2014 PS4's Next Big Blockbuster Bloodborne Will Expose Your Mortality
Dark Souls developer teasing Spring 2015 release
While this year’s scant exclusive lineup has caused some to call the PlayStation 4’s second holiday season into question, the platform holder looks like it’s preparing an outstanding roster of content in 2015. Indeed, while the short pre-rendered trailer may have led you to believe otherwise, a...
Round Up What Happened During Ubisoft's E3 2014 Press Conference?
Ubi or not Ubi
While the E3 show floor is only just about to open in sunny Los Angeles, the press conferences are now done and dusted for another year. With an entire industry’s hopes and dreams pinned on the shoulders of a handful of organisations, the cynicism from some message board pundits is already flooding the web hard. Alas, we felt that...
E3 2014 Surgeon Simulator Helps You to Save a Life on PS4
And end ten others

E3 2014 PS4's Killzone: Shadow Fall Intercept Targets a Trailer and Aims at a Release Date
Radio chatter
The Killzone franchise has always lacked a dedicated co-op component — something that many Helghast hunters have dreamed of. Thankfully, Killzone: Shadow Fall Intercept, a mode that focuses on four player teamwork, was announced back when the PlayStation 4 title launched, and it's finally got a release date. Launching on the 24th...
E3 2014 Scoff the Last Slice in Free PS Vita Puzzler Fat Princess: Piece of Cake
Empty your bowels for a small fee

Flash your Victorian cash now
With the gaming industry on loudspeaker, it was inevitable that some news would slip through the net.

Buried at the bottom of a PlayStation Blog...

E3 2014 Tom Clancy's The Division Tugs at the Heart Strings in Story Trailer
Hits home
When we saw Tom Clancy's The Division at last year's E3 conference, it taught us to get along with our friends in order to screw others and rob their loot. While the title's massive online multiplayer and spangly companion app are still core to the game, though, so is the story that led humanity to such destruction. The trailer below...

Reaction Poor Pacing Disrupts Otherwise Excellent PS4 Press Conference
Up and down
For large chunks of last night’s PlayStation press conference, we really thought that Sony had learned.

E3 2014 Suda 51's New PS4 Exclusive Let It Die Is Brutal and Bizarre
Speaking words of wisdom
Distinctive auteur Suda 51 is about as divisive as they come. Indeed, the luminary's games either cause intense adoration, or confused and bewildered disgust. And if this trailer for his new PlayStation 4 exclusive Let It Die is anything to go by, that trend isn't likely to be changing in the near future. The live action...
E3 2014 Far Cry 4 Unleashes An Utterly Chaotic PS4 Gameplay Trailer
Mt. murder

E3 2014 The Last of Us Remastered Will Break Your Heart All Over Again on 29th July
Spoilers
As one of its key titles leading into the holiday season, it's not surprising that Sony decided to showcase The Last of Us Remastered near the end of its E3 presentation. It is, however, incredibly surprising that it would choose to do so in such a spoiler-heavy fashion. Make no mistake, if you've not played The Last of Us, you should avoid...
