What a week that was
Can you believe it? E3 2015 just about done after almost a solid week of hectic coverage. For us, it's time for a break, but for you, the next couple of weeks are going to seem decidedly drab in comparison - perhaps even boring. Still, this year's Los Angeles-based expo proved to be well worth the fuss, granting us five big...
E3 2015 This PS4 Footage of Unravel Will Melt Your Heart
An epic yarn
Depending on who you ask, the highlight of EA's slightly lackluster E3 conference this year was adorable puzzle platformer Unravel. Thankfully, the gorgeous game featured on PlayStation's E3 live show, and you can catch the replay down below, which sees its earnest develo
E3 2015 Is a Mass Effect Trilogy PS4 Remaster Happening? Even EA Doesn't Seem to Know

E3 2015 BioWare Spills Some Details on Mass Effect: Andromeda
Entering orbit
While we're sure that many of you were left disappointed by the big reveal of Mass Effect: Andromeda - which amounted to a 40 second long teaser trailer - we all need to step back and realise that these things take time. Sure, we're just as impatient as you are, but we can wait for greatness - it's often what gaming is about these...
Round Up What Did EA Announce During Its E3 2015 Press Conference?
EAt that
An E3 mainstay, EA's press conference didn't disappoint this year. A slew of AAA titles keep the publishing juggernaut rolling, so it's unsurprising that its presser was full of big budget monsters. Alongside annual sports releases such as FIFA and Madden, we finally got our first semi-decent look at Mass Effect: Andromeda, while Plants vs...
E3 2015 Unravel Is a 2D Platformer With a Touching Story
EA's Wooly World
Jokes were abundant throughout EA's presser, but as a clearly nervous developer pulled a doll made of yarn from his coat pocket, we seriously contemplated turning off the stream - thank goodness things picked up once some gameplay was shown. Unravel looks pretty great, to be frank. What we're dealing with, it seems, is an artsy...
E3 2015 Mass Effect: Andromeda Finally Touches Down at EA's Press Conference
N7 heaven

News Don't Expect to See a Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare Sequel on PS4 at E3 2015
Weed killer
2014's Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare came as a bit of a surprise in that it was actually a much better game than many thought it would be. The only real problem that we had with the quirky team-based title was that we PlayStation enthusiasts had to wait a while before it arrived on Sony's newest system due to a timed exclusivity...
News It Sounds Like Dragon Age: Inquisition Is Getting More Story DLC
Prepare to wait
Dragon Age: Inquisition's Jaws of Hakkon expansion released last week on PlayStation platforms, and if you happened to enjoy the inquisitor's latest romp, then you'll probably be happy to hear that more single player content is on the way. "We're not quite done with story content for Dragon Age: Inquisition just yet," creative...
News Endure the Flames with Dragon Age: Inquisition's Free DLC Trailer
Get behind me
Truth be told, we've grown a bit cold on Dragon Age: Inquisition's multiplayer mode. The co-op component supports up to four players, and while it can be fantastic fun with friends, grouping up with random players can lead to disaster if you're not all on the same page. That said, we're actually tempted to hop back into the action...
News Dragon Age: Inquisition's Latest Patch Fixes an Absolute Ton of Bugs and Prepares for Free DLC
Black Emporium and co-op expansion coming to North America today

News EA's E3 2015 Press Conference Gets a Time and Date
Could be a big one
We're fast approaching E3 2015 - much to the dismay of us UK based writers - which means that details regarding the Los Angeles show are starting to slip out into the public domain. One such nugget of information is that EA's press conference will be on the 15th June at 1PM PST. The presser will last one hour. 'Live to Play' is...
News Dragon Age: Inquisition Is Looting a Lot of Free DLC Next Week
The magic mirror
You can't argue with free DLC, especially when it contains a slew of features that fans will no doubt adore.

First up is the Black Emporium - a recurring location that offers up oodles of rare items and bits of gear for...

Hakkon a minute
Dragon Age: Inquisition's DLC has had a bit of a rocky history. Indeed, after a poorly communicated timed exclusivity deal with Microsoft, the game's first single player add-on finally has a concrete release date for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3. The title's official twitter account has announced that the expansion will be...
News Michael Pachter Reckons Mass Effect PS4 and Mirror's Edge 2 Will Release Before March 2016
If you say so
In a recent Wedbush report, everyone's favourite analyst Michael Pachter and his peers at the company noted that the next Mass Effect and Mirror's Edge 2 will launch before the end of March 2016. The reasoning behind this analysis is that EA's fiscal year begins this month and ends next March, and along with the likes of a new Need...
Live Adventure into Dragon Age: Inquisition's Jaws of Hakkon DLC Right Now
Make the wait harder
Dragon Age: Inquisition's first expansion, Jaws of Hakkon, isn't available on PlayStation platforms yet thanks to a timed exclusivity deal with Microsoft, but we reckon that it's still worth watching this gameplay livestream from BioWare if you're interested. The DLC will release on Sony's systems in May, but are you hyped?...
News Dragon Age: Inquisition's Jaws of Hakkon DLC Hunts Down a PS4, PS3 Release Date
That wasn't so hard, was it?
Well, it looks as though BioWare's found a way to whisper through its tightly sealed lips regarding Dragon Age: Inquisition's first downloadable expansion, Jaws of Hakkon, and its release date on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3. The DLC launched last week on Xbox One and PC, but the studio wasn't allowed to say when it...

Watch Jaws of Hakkon's intriguing launch trailer through here Jaws of Hakkon,
News Unfortunately, You'll Have to Wait to Play This Dragon Age: Inquisition DLC on PS4 and PS3
It looks good, though
In what's been one of the strangest DLC launches that we've seen in recent years, Dragon Age: Inquisition's first downloadable expansion, Jaws of Hakkon, released today on Xbox One and PC. Meant as a surprise, the content was leaked before EA or BioWare had a chance to officially unveil its existence, and this has meant that...

News Dragon Age: Inquisition's Success Doesn't Guarantee a Sequel
Developer talks about the future, and Dragon Age II

News Battlefield Hardline Won't Falter at Launch Like Battlefield 4, Says Developer
Lockdown
Remember Battlefield 4's launch? The title's multiplayer component was a bit of a mess to say the least, as servers couldn't handle the strain, bugs ruined entire matches, and connection issues with both friends and strangers were rampant. Fortunately, Battlefield Hardline's multiplayer designer, Thadd Sasser, says that the upcoming...
News Blow the Bloody Doors Off with Battlefield Hardline's New Gameplay Trailer
Cop blocker
Battlefield Hardline's launch trailer is here, and it's actually pretty good. Sure, it's full of clichés and blackout cuts, but we reckon it shows off the title's single player campaign quite well. Full of guns, car chases, bullets, robbery, and some seemingly cardboard characters, it's everything that you'd expect, and it's all set to...

News Dragon Age: Inquisition's PS4 and PS3 Patch Means More Party Banter
Tell me more
It's been out for a little while on PC now, but consoles have finally nabbed Dragon Age: Inquisition's rather hefty patch. The download makes dozens of tweaks to little bits and pieces of the role-playing game, and as such, it doesn't fix or add anything too significant. That said, a common complaint from fans regarding a lack of party...
News It Sounds Like PS4's Mass Effect Won't Just Be Dragon Age: Inquisition in Space
Dragons can't even breathe in space
Given Dragon Age: Inquisition's critical success, it wasn't long before BioWare fans began to wonder how the title's formula would affect the studio's sci-fi property, Mass Effect. Distancing itself from previous games in the series, Inquisition's foundation is built upon open, explorable maps, and a whole lot of...

News Phew, Dragon Age: Inquisition's Multiplayer Will Not Affect the Single Player Story
Thank the Maker
We remember the negative commotion that surrounded Mass Effect 3's co-op mode all too well, and so we were a little worried about whether or not Dragon Age: Inquisition's newly announced multiplayer would have any effect on the single player story, if only so we didn't have to wade through countless hate-filled forum posts...
News Here's Dragon Age: Inquisition's Inevitable Co-Op Trailer
One for all
Any fan of Dragon Age: Origin's deadly rogue Leliana will no doubt be excited to hear her ask for your help in Dragon Age: Inquisition's freshly announced co-op mode, so we suppose that's a pretty effective way to begin this multiplayer focused trailer. It's not a long one, only clocking in at about a minute and a half, but we do get a...
Mass effective
It's something that's been in the rumour mill for some time now, but it's finally been confirmed that upcoming fantasy RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition is getting its very own co-op mode that's separate from the gigantic single player story.

Hot stuff
Upcoming PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition had a rather tame showing at EA's E3 press conference last month. Alongside cringe inducing dialogue from the on-stage GM Aaryn Flynn, the game didn't get the big gameplay blowout that many expected, probably due to the publisher's strict time table. Thankfully, the...
