Push Rewind Did Destiny Deliver in the End?
A sense of meaning
Destiny means so many different things to different people. For some, it was a complete failure; an experience severely lacking in content, variety, and story were the cries of its dismissers as they joined the growing air of disappointment surrounding Bungie’s Halo successor. They seemingly formed the bulk of online opinion...
Push Rewind Was Knack Really That Bad?
The right to exist
The week that was is no more. We're bringing back the Push Rewind name after nearly a year of dormancy, but with a brand new meaning. Instead of a round-up of the previous week's news, we'll be taking a deep dive into games that are about to receive a sequel. This will exclude reboots, spiritual successors, side stories,...
Push Rewind PS4 Pro, Call of Duty, Mass Effect Andromeda
Cool story, Pro
There was only one topic dominating Push Square this week: the PlayStation 4 Pro. We posted a metric ton of content pertaining to Sony's new supercharged system, and you can relive all of the highlights – as well as all of our other content – courtesy of your weekly Push Rewind recap. Reviews: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare -...
Push Rewind PlayStation Plus, Dragon Ball XenoVerse 2, Skyrim
A wonderful weeb
The news has definitely dried up lately as new releases take centre stage, but a hack on No Man's Sky developer Hello Games' servers certainly made for some entertaining stories this week. Elsewhere, we've mostly just been reviewing everything that's coming out – we're thick in the busy Christmas period right now, folks...
Push Rewind Red Dead Redemption 2, Battlefield 1, Nintendo Switch
The ol' West
Red Dead Redemption 2 dominated the headlines on Push Square this week – though there was a bigger industry-wide story in the form of the upcoming Nintendo Switch. Other headlines included the completion of The Last Guardian – at long last! Reviews: Battlefield 1 - 8/10 While you probably know whether you'll enjoy B
Push Rewind Red Dead Redemption 2, PlayStation VR, Tomb Raider

Push Rewind PlayStation VR Reviews, Modern Warfare Remastered, Mafia III
Virtually ridiculous
Look at that list of features! We were absolutely swamped here at Push Square this week, but we put out a mammoth amount of content, with a ton of PlayStation VR coverage. And this only represented week one of our virtual reality blow-out – expect another wealth of coverage over the coming days. Reviews: PlayStation VR...
Push Rewind October PS Plus, FIFA 17, PlayStation VR
The week that was
As we get busier in the build-up to Christmas here at Push Square Towers, we've been slacking on the Push Rewind front a little bit. Fortunately, we've found time to put together this week's edition, which includes the latest PlayStation Plus lineup, and a bunch of our impressions from EGX 2016. Reviews: Destiny:
Push Rewind More PS4 Slim Leaks, PlayStation Plus Prices, PlayStation Now
Slim shady
Another week draws to a close, which means that we're now days away from seeing what Sony's got in store at next week's PlayStation Meeting press conference. And of course, the PlayStation 4 Slim has continued to dominate the headlines over the past few days, as the console has continued to filter out into the public. The platform...
Push Rewind PS4 Slim, Deus Ex Review, Firmware Update 4.00, Crash Bandicoot
Metal Gear Survive! Final Fantasy XV! Gamescom 2016!
It was Gamescom 2016 this week, but while the German convention did play host to various trailers and news, the biggest stories broke outside of the show. For example, Sony kickstarted the week by revealing PlayStation 4 firmware update v4.00, which will include folders at last. And earlier today,...
Push Rewind No Man's Sky, PlayStation Meeting 2016, PS4K
A busy one
It was an enormously busy week here at Push Square Towers – despite the fact that we only published one measly review. Features led the charge this time, as we covered everything No Man's Sky, and even found time to build some hype for Sony's PlayStation Meeting presser, which will take place on 7th September. Reviews: No Man's Sky...
Push Rewind No Man's Sky, Red Dead Redemption 2, PS4 Firmware 4.00
Back in time
A fairly busy week again here at Push Square Towers, as the build up to the hotly anticipated No Man's Sky intensified, while we reviewed a handful of big games such as ABZU and Brut@l. We put out a ton of feature coverage, while there were rumours regarding Red Dead Redemption 2 yet again. Reviews:
Push Rewind August's PS Plus Games, PS4 Firmware Update, Great Indie Titles
Highs and lows
This week was dominated by two big announcements from Sony: the PlayStation Plus lineup for August and PlayStation 4 firmware update v4.00. While we're still waiting for full details on the latter, the former has caused a bit of a commotion. In brighter news, there's been no shortage of great games lately, as both Headlander and Hyper...
Push Rewind Rise of the Tomb Raider, Sonic Mania, 20 Best Games on PS4
Normal service resumed
After over a month of E3 2016 hangover, the industry finally decided to pick itself back up and get to work this week, with an absolute ton of news breaking over the past seven days. The biggest headline perhaps pertained to Rise of the Tomb Raider's PlayStation 4 version, but equally exciting was confirmation that Gravity...
Push Rewind No Man's Sky, Dead Rising, EVO 2016
Welcome to the fantasy zone
It's not been a very interesting week here on Planet PlayStation, with most of the big stories stemming from No Man's Sky, which is now just about three or so weeks away. Other headlines included a Trophy list for Dead Rising, which looks poised to make its PlayStation debut. Reviews: Ghostbusters - 2/10 Roger Ebert...
Push Rewind 7 Days to Die, Adam Boyes' Exit, No Man's Sky
And not much else
It's been about as far away from being a vintage week here at Push Square Towers as is possible, with very little happening on Planet PlayStation over the past seven days. The summer's sometimes like that, though, and we're sure that there'll be an uptick in enthusiasm as Gamescom quietly draws near. Reviews: 7 Days to Die -...
Push Rewind The E3 2016 Highlights Edition
Everything you need to know
E3's over for another year. It wasn't exactly a vintage event, but it had more than enough to prove that the future's bright for the PlayStation 4. Between a cavalcade of first-party software announcements, and a decent selection of third-party titles, there's lots to look forward to over the next 18 months and beyond...
Push Rewind PlayStation Plus Freebies, PS4's Best Games, Loads of Reviews
A big week
Whey, it's almost E3, which means that things should be quiet around here, right? Are you crazy? It's busier than ever! We spent this week reviewing dozens of games, providing updates on a slew of upcoming ones, and generally getting you in the mood for the big show. Hyped yet? Reviews: Overwatch - 9/10 Blizzard has never been a...
Push Rewind Sony E3 Presser Timing, DOOM, Shadow of the Beast
Gran Turismo Sport! Homefront: The Revolution! More!
This week was overshadowed by the dread that Sony announcing its E3 2016 press conference onset. It's another late one here at Push Square Towers, but at least it'll be all over soon. Amid panic attacks, we reviewed old-school revivals DOOM and Shadow of the Beast, interviewed one of the writers...
Push Rewind Uncharted 4, Call of Duty, Battlefield 1, Persona 5
All of the blockbusters
It was AAA week on Push Square this time, as we reviewed arguably the most anticipated PlayStation 4 game yet in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and also covered the reveals of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Battlefield 1. Elsewhere, Persona 5 got a Japanese release date for good measure – a busy one all around, then...
Push Rewind Call of Duty: Modern Warfare PS4, PlayStation Plus Freebies, Alienation
Modern warfare
A somewhat modest week here at Push Square Towers, as rumours and teasers took the place of actual announcements. The big leak centred on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, which appears poised to release on the PlayStation 4. As for actual news, the latest slate of PlayStation Plus goodies were announced – while we reviewed Alienation...
Push Rewind Dark Souls III, Ratchet & Clank, and Red Dead Redemption PS4
Wild, wild west
It hasn't been the most eventful week here at Push Square Towers, with the gaming industry clearly too busy butchering the Lords of Cinder to give us some interesting stories to write about. We did get a ton of Dark Souls III content up, though, including our definitive review. Other games that got the review treatment: Ratchet &...
Push Rewind Dark Souls III, PS4 Firmware Update 3.50, Uncharted 4
A big one
Wow, it was a big week here at Push Square Towers, wasn't it? In addition to Dark Souls III and a ton of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End coverage, we also brought you all of the news on PlayStation 4 firmware update v3.50, and a bunch of big news stories and features to boot. No rest for the wicked! Reviews: Dark Souls III - Score Pending
Push Rewind PlayStation VR, Supercharged PS4 Rumours, Cross-Network Play
Phew
This was arguably the biggest week of the PlayStation year so far, with GDC 2016 bringing PlayStation VR date and price details. That news was accompanied by rumours of supercharged PlayStation 4 console, as well as Microsoft's decision to enable cross-platform play. And if all of that wasn't enough, Uncharted 4 went gold, Devil May Cry 5 was...
Push Rewind The Division, Hitman PS4, and Uncharted 4
The big guns
This was a big week for new releases, with both The Division and Hitman arriving on the PlayStation 4. Just like the rest of the press, we weren't able to get our hands on Ubisoft Massive's Manhattan-based shooter until launch day, so those waiting for a review can anticipate one once we've fully put it through its paces. You'll find...
Push Rewind No Man's Sky, PS4 Firmware Update 3.50, Uncharted 4 Delay
Heavy Rain PS4 review, podcast, and more
And thus concludes a pretty packed week in the PlayStation Nation, where we finally got some hands-on time with No Man's Sky, witnessed another Uncharted 4: A Thief's End delay, and finally got some firm information on PlayStation 4 firmware update v3.50. You may need a lie down after this week's Push Rewind...
Push Rewind Uncharted 4, PlayStation Plus Freebies, Far Cry Primal
For Drake's sake
Ooh boy, the highlight this week has to be that Uncharted 4: A Thief's End trailer, doesn't it? Even ignoring the hullabaloo regarding the place holder art, Naughty Dog's latest practically sizzled in its latest story clip. Other highlights this time include the latest PlayStation Plus line-up, and several big reviews – Far Cry...
Push Rewind Street Fighter V, PS4 Firmware Update Betas, Hideo Kojima's Next Game
Rise up
One game's hogged the headlines this week: Street Fighter V. We thought that the fighter was absolutely wonderful in our review, but it's also come under heavy fire for its lack of single player content. Elsewhere this week, we got some updates on Hideo Kojima's new game, Bethesda teased a Fallout 4 secret that's yet to be found, and we...
Push Rewind Digimon Story, Firewatch, Knack Sequels, and Crash Comebacks
Surprise
We were ready to write this week off, but it's been an action-packed weekend. Not only did a Knack sequel appear to leak, but one toy manufacturer has hinted that Sony may be bringing Crash Bandicoot back. That's all in addition to the slew of reviews that we wrote over the past few days, with titles like Firewatch and Digimon Story: Cyber...
Push Rewind PlayStation Plus Games, The Division, and SCE Is No More
Witness everything here
There's no question what was the biggest story this week: Sony Computer Entertainment is being renamed. The newly formed Sony Interactive Entertainment will officially form on 1st April, and will comprise of both PlayStation and fellow subsidiary Sony Network Entertainment. In order to deal with the shock, we spent the week...
Push Rewind Resident Evil 0, Best PS4 Games, Digimon
Treading water
It's been another relatively dismal week here at Push Square Towers, lifted perhaps only by the bevy of big reviews that we've published. Resident Evil Zero and This War of Mine: The Little Ones both scored well, while World of Tanks was a teensy bit less successful. In terms of features, we ranked the Top 20 PlayStation 4 games to...
Push Rewind PS4 Firmware Updates, Our 2016 Predictions, and PS Vita Lives
Slowly does it
After an absolutely action packed start to 2016, things slowed down a little this week. Ubisoft put out some new footage of Tom Clancy's The Division, but other than that, it's been a particularly quiet one, with an uneventful PlayStation 4 firmware update being one of the few highlights. You won't hear us complaining, of course –...
Push Rewind PSN Downtime, PlayStation VR Price Points, and Mass Effect Hints
Back to work we go
It's the first week back in the office, but it's been an absolutely huge few days here at Push Square Towers. In addition to the PlayStation Network going down, Oculus also revealed just how expensive virtual reality's going to be by pricing its Rift, while we also got some teases regarding Mass Effect: Andromeda. Reviews:...
Push Rewind Kojima Picks PlayStation, PS4's Report Card, and Sony's 2016
One more time
It's been a quiet week on the site as we prepare our Game of the Year coverage, but one big story did hit the headlines over the past seven days: Hideo Kojima has formed a new studio and is partnering with PlayStation to develop his first post-Konami title. This is the last edition of Push Rewind until 2016, but don't worry, because...
Push Rewind Final Fantasy VII Insanity, Yakuza News, and November NPD
11 more sleeps
After the madness of PlayStation Experience last week, this author was looking forward to a much quieter shift, and fortunately that's exactly what he got. Still, Square Enix did temporarily attempt to upset the apple cart by revealing that its Final Fantasy VII Remake would be episodic – though not quite in the way that you think...
Push Rewind Your Ultimate PlayStation Experience 2015 Recap
And the rest of the week that was
Well, that was a pretty intensive week. Not only did we stay up late for The Game Awards 2015, but this weekend also brought PlayStation Experience 2015 – and about a trillion PlayStation 4 and Vita announcements with it. Because it's been such an action packed week we've decided to do Push Rewind a little...
Push Rewind Bloodborne, Battlefront, and Black Friday
May the good blood guide you
Thanksgiving week is always a strange one at Push Square Towers. As a predominantly British site, we don't celebrate the American holiday, but the PlayStation Nation tends to go to sleep while our friends from across the pond take time out. It's all good, though, because this author spent his week ordering multiple...
Push Rewind PS2 Games on PS4, Sony's 2016 Lineup, and Star Wars Battlefront
Old-school
This was shaping up to be a quiet week until Sony decided to reveal that PlayStation 2 games are coming to the PlayStation 4. It's been a bit crazy since then, with Star Wars Battlefront being the title that's been taking up the bulk of our attention. Fortunately, we padded out the start of the week by looking at next year's lineup –...
Push Rewind Fallout 4, Fallout 4, and More Fallout 4
Fallout 4?
Apologies if you feel that the content mix hasn't been quite right on Push Square this week, but Fallout 4 really has been the biggest game to hit the PlayStation 4 since… Well, Call of Duty: Black Ops III. The point is that we loved the game and knew that a ton of you would be playing it, so we wanted to bring you as much coverage as...
Push Rewind Call of Duty: Black Ops III, Need for Speed, Just Cause 3
Better late than never
Your host feels like Bart in the opening credits of The Simpons: we will not miss another edition of Push Rewind. We will not miss another edition of Push Rewind. The Internet in Push Square Towers went down on Sunday, so we didn't get the opportunity to put this together then. Fortunately, this author's found a spare 15...
Push Rewind PS4 Predictions for Paris Games Week, The Witcher 3 DLC, and Assassin's Creed Syndicate
November's PS Plus reveal timing, PS4 firmware update surveys, and more
Hear that? That's the calm before the storm, because Paris Games Week is coming. It's been an absolutely agonising wait for Sony to take to the stage again, after it skipped its annual Gamescom press conference. Now the hype train's choo-chooing, and we're giving you front row...
Push Rewind No Man's Sky Rumours, Tales of Zestiria, Dragon Quest Heroes
What A Week
And thus concludes a gigantic week in the PlayStation Nation. There wasn't a whole lot of hot news this time – a juicy No Man's Sky rumour aside – but we made up for it with more reviews than you can possibly imagine. A busy week, then – and it's only going to busier. Reviews: Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe and the...
Push Rewind Far Cry Primal, PS4 Price Drop, Star Wars Battlefront
Feel the force
We're more or less in that nitty-gritty part of the year where news doesn't happen quite so much because games are bloody well coming out. That said, Ubisoft did manage to drop a mammoth-sized bombshell in the form of Far Cry Primal earlier in the week, while Sony rounded things off with a PlayStation 4 price drop. Busy week, then...
Push Rewind PlayStation Plus, PS4 Firmware Update 3.00, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5
Highs and lows
Weeks don't come much bigger than this in the PlayStation Nation, with headlines hitting with frightening frequency over the past seven days. Despite being busy, though, it's all been a bit disappointing; October's big PlayStation Plus update looks light, PlayStation 4 firmware update v3.00 proved to be a letdown, and Tony Hawk's Pro...
Push Rewind Uncharted PS4, EGX 2015, and PlayStation Plus
Catching up
It's been a different kind of week here at Push Square Towers, as we've been out on the road sampling all of the gaming morsels on display at EGX 2015 this weekend. Hopefully we managed to tide you over with a hearty helping of hands-on impressions, though, from Mirror's Edge Catalyst right the way through to Ratchet & Clank. Here...
Push Rewind All of the Headlines from TGS 2015
Turning Japanese
Wow, it's been a busy week here at Push Square Towers, with TGS 2015 taking centre stage. Sony's press conference kickstarted the week, and it's been non-stop since then, with several major titles all on display. Highlights have to include the announcements of Bloodborne: The Old Hunters and Gravity Rush 2, but we also got some...
Push Rewind Destiny: The Taken King, Metal Gear Solid 5, and Lots of Reviews
Break a leg
There's never a good week to take a break in this industry, but Señor Ramsey informs me that the past seven days have been the pits on Planet PlayStation. Fortunately, he was able to plug the gaps with an ample supply of Destiny: The Taken King info and lots of reviews. Here's your regularly scheduled recap of everything that you need...
Push Rewind Trophies, Metal Gear Solid 5, Until Dawn, One Piece
Better late than never
It's a Bank Holiday here in the UK, so we've decided to sit on Push Rewind until the morning. Alright, if truth be known we were up watching kitten videos all Sunday evening so have only just got around to this regularly scheduled recap of all of the week's hottest news. Well, we say "hot news" but... You'll see. Reviews:...
Push Rewind Zombi, Project Morpheus, and PS4 Firmware Update Betas
Calm before the storm
Once again, we have to say that it's been a quiet week in the PlayStation Nation. However, we can't say that we're not enjoying the break. Things are about to get real hectic here at Push Square Towers, so we're licking our battle wounds and waiting for everything to heal while the insanity of holiday 2015 descends like a...
Push Rewind Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, PS4 Firmware Update 3.00, Vote to Play
We do it
It's been another quiet week here in the PlayStation Nation, but Everybody's Gone to the Rapture was good enough to get Kell Andersen screaming its praises here at Push Square Towers. There was also a major leak in the form of PlayStation 4 firmware update v3.00, which, at the time of typing, is actually yet to be officially confirmed...
