News New Bioshock 2 Trailer Fails To Get Us Any More Excited
Bioshock 2's probably going to be awesome
But even with a trailer this explosive, we can't help but feel underwhelmed. Don't get us wrong, it's a good trailer, and the game looks good. But still, we don't feel anything for it.
News Progression Is Key In Assassin's Creed II According To New Dev Diary
We had no idea that Assassin's Creed II plots the character of Ezio over a series of 30 or so years
In fact, we can't really think of many games that develop a character over a length of time. That's interesting, because if done well we should see the progression of the protagonist as his life unfolds. The game's not far away now and we're starting...
News Army Of Two: The 40th Day Introduces Extraction Mode
Every shooter needs a Gears Of War-esque horde mode
So check out what's been announced for Army Of Two: The 40th Day — Extraction. Which is essentially horde mode. The mode, strangely, comes as a bonus for GameStop preorders but, worry not, everyone will have access to the mode 30 days after the game's release. It's kind of a weird idea, but the...
News The Saboteur Has An Excellent Art Style
It's kinda snook up on us, but did anyone else realise The Saboteur had such an awesome art style
It's clearly heavily influenced by Schindler's List, which is totally awesome. Jury's still out on the gameplay, but we're certainly taken by the art-style.
News Bang! Bang! Maxwell's Silver Hammer, "Abbey Road" DLC Trailered
Check out the scope of The Beatles: Rock Band's first DLC album, with this trailer highlighting the tracks of Abbey Road
The DLC will not only include the new tracks, but also new "dreamscapes" and backdrops devoted to the songs of Abbey Road. Maxwell's Silver Hammer looks particularly fancy. The DLC launches on the Playstation Network...
News Latest Heavy Rain Footage Literally Blows Our Mind With Potential
There are a few things that seem off in this Heavy Rain video designed for the Japanese audience
The Japanese voice acting sounds poor and the animation looks like it's yet to really be developed. But everything else about this game is currently brimming with clear potential. If you're yet to really follow Heavy Rain, sit down and watch this 9...
News God Of War Collection Trailer Gets Us All Totally Stoked For The God Of War Franchise Again
It's been very quiet on the God Of War front since E3
In fact, dare we say Sony's lead character - Kratos - had slipped to the background behind Nathan Drake and Ratchet. Alas, releasing the God Of War Collection in the US is probably the best piece of marketing Sony have ever done. Not only do they please their fans and bring newcomers into the...
News Assassin's Creed II Developers Discuss The Art Of Murder
"Real violence is brutal," says Ubisoft's Charles Randall, "You can't kill someone by just slashing at them with a sword
When you kill someone there's an effect." All things, presumably, Ubisoft had to study in order to make the combat feel just so in Assassin's Creed II. Check out the above developer's diary to see just how they created those...
News DJ Hero Introduction Packs Awesome Beats, Ridiculous Footage
The intro to Activision's upcoming DJ Hero's is a real mixed bag
Yes, the choice of Justice as the game's introductory track really sums up the game no end - and for that has us chomping at the bit to get our hands on it - but the footage involving crazy monsters, exploding trucks and giant vinyl record players really did nothing for us. Still, at...
News Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars On PSP Is Looking Great
What do you get when you take the highest rated Nintendo DS game of all time and put it on the PSP? Well you get the same great game, with better graphics minus a few touch screen minigames
Welcome to our PSP's Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars — we can't wait to play you. Check out these new screens over at Kotaku to see just how far the game's...
News Ryo Hazuki Returns In Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing, We Go NUTS!
Tears!
You can't expect us to type anything after a trailer as epic as that can you? Shenmue is one of our favourite video game franchises ever, and to see Ryo Hazuki riding his iconic motorcycle (and then latterly his forklift) through Green Hill Zone puts us close to tears. Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing may be the clumsiest name in video...
News Modern Warfare 2 "Infamy" Trailer Is Totally Over The Top
As promised, there's a new Modern Warfare 2 trailer
"Infamy" tries to pull at your heart strings. The question of morality underscored by readings from the Bible; ironic for a game all about shooting folk. We guess that's kinda the idea. Either that, or we're missing something. Still, we don't think Modern Warfare 2 is a game that trailers...
News Final Fantasy XIII Trailer In English Is More Romantic, Less Nonsensical
Late last month we posted the latest Final Fantasy XIII trailer -- in Japanese
At the time we were waffling about underage-looking girls because we had little else to say. Having seen the trailer in English (which you can do yourselves right here) we can conclude that the romantic tones we'd predicted (but refrained from writing for fear of...
News Modern Warfare 2 Gets Another New Trailer In Sunday Night American Egghand TV Coverage
So, according to USA Today, Activision will be showing a new trailer for Modern Warfare 2 in between the San Diego Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers game on Sunday
Any Americans who've dropped by this site and feel like kicking us in the face due to our "handegg" joke in the title, please chill — we're simply Brits trying to be comical...
News Check Out The Debut Trailer To Resident Evil 5: Director's Cut
This Resident Evil 5: Director's Cut has us totally sold on Resident Evil 5 again
A new chapter where we get to play as Jill Valentine, dude, we're all over that. Plus the new version will have Playstation Motion Controller support — functionality which should make Resident Evil 5 as fun to play as RE4: Wii Edition. We're so all over it.
News Tekken 6 Viral Ads Are Totally Over The Top, Pretty Awesome
We've really no idea what's going on in this Tekken 6 video
We do know that it's in super slow motion, and very artistically shot. A little pretentious if you will. But still, you can't deny that it's pretty damn classy. After all, "What will you fight for?" is a question we should all ask ourselves when we step into the arena with a...
News Insomniac Show You How To Spot A Villain, Make Us ROFL
Good stuff
Be as moody as you like about the Ratchet & Clank games: the gameplay is stale, it looks too cartoony, yadda-yadda-yadda. But, never say Insomniac don't have it anymore. And by it we mean, well, the way they can keep cranking out this games and still make them bloody hilarious. Because this trailer is hilarious, and if you don't...
News TGS 09: Check Out The Final Fantasy XIII Trailer
The recipe to this Final Fantasy XIII trailer is two-parts amazing and one-part we wish we knew what was going on
Still, we suppose we can just sit and stare at the CGI character models of girls who look underage. Or not, because that would be a bad thing. And if you wondered why we are waffling, it's because we have nothing else to say about this...
News TGS 09: Find Out Why Ezio Is An Assassin In Assassin's Creed II
Seems like there is some bureaucracy involved in the lead up to Assassin's Creed II's plot
The trailer depicts an angry Ezio watch on as his father is sentenced to death. We're going to go out on a limb and suggest his father was wrongly sentenced death. Probably because of corruption. The trailer also features those crazy ass wings. Dude.
News TGS 09: Hey Everyone, Here's That New Yakuza Trailer
We've known there's been a new Yakuza coming for a while now
But now we can all finally see what it looks like via this Yakuza 4: Heir To The Dragon Tokyo Game Show trailer. And the verdict is... It looks a lot like a Yakuza game! It's hard to get excited when us Westerners are still waiting for the release of Yakuza 3. Yeah.
News TGS 09: Final Fantasy XIV Trailer Has Amazing Music
We know very little about Final Fantasy XIV other than it's on the Playstation 3 (and PC) and is an MMO
Still, this trailer gives us a little artistic context, showing some of the world Eorzea. Apparently the place has lots of food. Oh and trading card games. Very, very important are trading card games. Did we mention that this trailer has really...
News TGS 09: Behind The Scenes With The Last Guardian, New Trailer
Well it's not much, but you don't need to see much when it comes to The Last Guardian
This game truly looks to be something entirely new and completely special. In this new trailer and behind the scenes video, Fumito Ueda talks about the process of developing the game and some of the design choices behind it. Fascinating stuff.
News Ice T, Chris Robinson, Jay Sean & More Talk Beaterator Ahead Of The VMAs
We've not hidden our excitement for Rockstar's upcoming portable music production suite Beaterator
We're absolutely stoked for the product. Seriously. And whether they're being paid to say it or not, the bunch of superstars in the video above all agree: Beaterator is going to rock. Hip-hop pioneer Ice T reckons the product will "help a lot of...
News Daft Punk's Contribution To DJ Hero Elevates The Game To "Must Have" Status
We've been up and down with DJ Hero
We love the mixes and the attempt at doing something a little different but we really hate the price. Alas, we've finally decided that DJ Hero is going to be the best thing since sliced bread, thanks to the inclusion (and input) of one of our favourite acts of all time — Daft Punk. The duo will be contributing...
News Buzz! Quiz World Looks Like A Suitably Excellent Upgrade
Remember Buzz
Quiz TV</a> and Buzz! Brain Of The UK? Yep, two Buzz! games that were actually rather awesome but needed fleshing out. A lot. Looks like Buzz! Quiz World is set to fix those problems. The popular quizzing game is back but with what looks like tons of new content. As confirmed via the embedded trailer. The trailer reveals...
What can you imagine that is better than Motorstorm, set on a snowy mountain? The fact that it fits in your pocket? Hell yes
We're so stoked about the PSP's upcoming Sony racers, Motorstorm for wreckless fun, Gran Turismo for simulation awe. Check out this developer diary to get a little more detail about the upcoming Motorstorm: Arctic Edge...
News Project Needlemouse Hints At A Return Of Excellence For Our Favourite Hedgehog
How many years has it been that we've been saying Sonic should return to his roots? This is a rhetorical question we've been asking around the office lately, seeing as SEGA have released a teaser video hinting at a return to form for the radical hedgehog
The trailer which makes a point of giving pretty much nothing away says one clear thing...
News New Blur Trailer Reveals More About The Game, Twitter Support Is Announced
Boy are we bombarded with great racing games lately
With Split/Second on the horizon, the excellent DiRT 2 now off our review schedule and Gran Turismo 5 rumoured, what space will there be for the Blur? Given the developer's pedigree, probably quite a lot, after all, this is Bizarre Creations' latest franchise. And from the trailer we get the...
News Bioshock 2 Multiplayer Seems Kinda Frantic Yet Still Kinda Dumb
When this trailer for Bioshock 2 kicked in, we remembered why we fell in love with the first game
That pseudo-retro feel packs the game with charm, and while it's not as fresh now as it was when the first game launched, it still had us smiling during the first few moments of the trailer. Then the gameplay kicked in and our smile drooped...
News Assassin's Creed II Goes All Disco-House In Latest Trailer
We'll let you in on a secret - we love disco house
Hence our fathomable excitement when we crank up the latest Assassin's Creed II trailer only to be smacked with a blast of crazy bass from Justice. Put your subwoofer on folks, turn the bass up to 11 and get ready for a mix of synth and slap bass. All set to the moves of Ezio. Hell yeah!
News Timbaland Walks You Through Beaterator On PSP
Through the power of beats and vocal harmonies, Timbaland is here to tell you about his upcoming PSP venture with Rockstar, Beaterator
We're really excited by this "game", namely because outside of writing for PushSquare we're all really into music production. The video gives you a good idea for what you can be expecting to achieve in...
News LocoRoco: Midnight Carnival's Trailer Has A 90s Cartoon Vibe
LocoRoco: Midnight Carnival will be the first PSP Go game playable in its closed position
The game has a rather more arcade feel to it, accentuated by the "boing" mechanic as shown in the trailer. With 16 stages, two minigames and three bonus stages we're going to assume Midnight Carnival will be priced somewhere a bit higher than a PSP...
News Modern Warfare 2 Capture The Flag Multiplayer Trailer Confirms Game Is Still Fun
Modern Warfare 2 continues to amaze us in a totally unexcited kinda way
Allow us to explain. So good was Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare we're kind of cruising along claiming in static, dull voices, "yep, sequel's going to be absolutely amazing". We're not understating what is coming, genuinely Modern Warfare 2 looks set to be one of the -...
News A Space Oddity: Ratchet & Clank Jet Out Into Space In A Crack In Time
Space Race
In the past, the space elements of Ratchet & Clank have pretty much consisted of rails shooting and short warp hole cut-scenes. That changes with Ratchet & Clank: A Crack In Time as you'll now have the freedom to explore the entirety of space. You'll be able to stop on various planets and engage in mini spherical platforming...
News Timbaland Talks Beaterator, We Get All Excited
As budding amateur producers ourselves (buy our song, please
), we're super excited about Beaterator. There's two things we've always wanted to do: a) make music while we're nowhere near a computer/instrument; b) capture the Timbaland drum sound. Beaterator looks like it's going to achieve both those aims for us, and that gets us mega excited...
News Mafia II Trailer Looks Seven Shades Of Awesome
Mafia II might look like standard Godfather style stuff
But there's one scene in this trailer that really stands out like a gorgeous sore thumb. The scene about 20 seconds in of a snowy city street. It looks so noir. So beautiful. So inviting. And that single scene has got us all excited about Mafia II now.
News GamesCom 09: Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Trailer Reveals Alex Kidd, Beat & Billy Hatcher
Ears open folks: Billy Hatcher is in Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing
Our question to SEGA: if Billy Hatcher counts as a SEGA All-Star, Ryo Hazuki has to be in there right? Right? Still, while Billy Hatcher might be the guy nobody picks, we'll almost certainly always pick Beat. That dude is just way too cool. And the Jet Set Radio games are...
News GamesCom 09: Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker Trailer Is An Absolute Epic
Prepare yourself for 9 minutes of Snake-to-the-power-of-four action
This trailer is up there with Kojima's best. Get some pop-corn. Put it in the microwave. Turn the microwave on for a bit. Cover it in salt. Add some butter while it's still warm. Sit back. And press play. Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker deserves that kind of attention.
News GamesCom 09: First Avatar: The Game Footage Is Revealed
We still don't know what Avatar is about
No one sent us a postcard with answers on when we requested it. Apparently it's still the best thing since sliced bread though. Apparently. All we know is that it's a movie by James Cameron and Ubisoft are making the game of the film This reveal trailer doesn't really tell us anything about Avatar's fiction,...
News GamesCom 09: Tony Hawk Ride Trailer Is All Levels Of Awkward
We don't know what it is about Tony Hawk Ride but, we just don't get it
Sure it looks like standing on the board is probably quite intuitive for movement, but we can't see how hand-plants could ever work, seeing as how you should be virtually upside down. How can they ever naturally replicate that? Still, this host of pro-skaters seem way into it...
News GamesCom 09: New Jak & Daxter: The Lost Frontier Trailer Is Packed With Story
Hit play
We'll wait. You done? Well that was a pretty awesome story trailer wasn't it? Course it doesn't make all that much sense to those who haven't played any of the Jak & Daxter games recently, but even if you haven't we're sure you found the video rather engaging. Some great voice acting and character animation appear to be the subject of...
News GamesCom 09: Tekken 6 On PSP Gameplay Is All Rather Amazing Too
So Tekken 6 PSP's bigger brother might be getting all the attention on the high definition consoles, but look at Tekken 6 PSP
Look at it. This is a PSP game. Can you believe this is a PSP game? How is this possible? Look at the graphics and animation. Oh my. If Namco hadn't already put an awesome version of Tekken 5 out on the PSP, we wouldn't...
Every now and then you know a good Tekken trailer has come around
How? Because it makes little to zero sense. This Tekken 6 trailer is one such of that kind. If anybody could explain what's going on, please send us answers on a postcard. Otherwise, heck, we'll just leave it as a mystery. Looking bloody brilliant in our opinion though.
News GamesCom 09: New Heavy Rain Gameplay Teases Fourth Character

News GamesCom 09: White Knight Chronicles Trailers Are Always Epic
We think it's a theme that White Knight Chronicles trailers have to be uber-epic
This latest one from GamesCom introduces you to a number of the game's cast, set to lovely strumming acoustic guitars and fiddles. Note: the game looks amazing.
News GamesCom 09: LittleBigPlanet PSP Looks Just Like The Playstation 3 Version
We're more likely to make levels on our Playstation Portable with LittleBigPlanet PSP if we're being totally honest
The fact that you can play the PSP anywhere, means we're likely to sit hunched over our shiny PSP Go's on the train working on wonderful concoctions on the way to work. So it's pretty much amazing that Studio Cambridge and Media...
News GamesCom 09: We Reckon Modnation Racers Is Gonna Be Bloody Brilliant
Check out this crazy awesome Modnation Racers trailer and weep at the possibilities

News GamesCom 09: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Goes Slow-Mo

News GamesCom 09: New Ratchet & Clank: A Crack In Time Trailer Is Totally Fantastic
Captain Quark is back by the way! Hellz yeah!
