Talking Point Will No Man's Sky Live Up to the Hype on PS4?
Sky high
No Man's Sky is finished! We're nearing our 50th article on the game since it was announced all the way back in December 2013. In case you can't remember those halcyon days: the PlayStation 4 had only just released, Geoff Keighley still produced award ceremonies for Spike TV, and Britain was still in the EU. Too soon? Anyway, the point is...
News These Alternate No Man's Sky PS4 Covers Look Just Like Classic Sci-Fi Books
What a novel idea
The official artwork that adorns the box of No Man's Sky is gorgeous. Hello Games has worked hard to capture the essence of sci-fi in its upcoming galactic explore-'em-up, drawing inspiration from the cover art found on vintage science fiction novels. This look and feel runs through the veins of the enormous indie; it certainly...
News No Man's Sky File Size Isn't as Big as You May Think on PS4
Every man's sky
Being a game that houses infinity and beyond, you'd be forgiven for assuming that No Man's Sky will take up a hefty chunk of your PlayStation 4's hard drive, but thankfully that won't be the case. According to Hello Games' ever informative boss Sean Murray, the space sim will weigh in at only 6GB on disc, and we'd imagine that as a...

Space awaits
The wait has been longer than an intergalactic tour of the universe, but No Man's Sky is finally finished on the PlayStation 4.

Poll Are You Still Excited for No Man's Sky on PS4?
Or has the wait killed the hype?
At the time of writing, the date is the 24th June 2016.

The primary satellite service in the UK is provided by Sky, a pan-European broadcasting firm founded by none other than Rupert Murdoch.

Yes Man's Sky
No Man's Sky was recently delayed until August on PlayStation 4, with North America getting the game on the 9th, Europe receiving it on the 10th, and the poor old UK having to wait until the 12th to sample the space sim.

The title was pushed back from 21st June to 9th August this week, meaning...
News Yep, No Man's Sky Has Been Delayed Again on PS4

The information comes straight from the game's media page on playstation.com, so we'd say that it's pretty much official. You can probably expect some sort of statement from Sony or developer...

Out of this world
You can be sure a game's a big deal when Sony: a) Hires nerd culture icon Anthony Carboni to scream about; b) Rents a random set that's been made to look like a living room straight out of an American soap opera; c) Fills said studio with a leather couch that wouldn't look out of place in a stately home.
