Backlog busting
'Tis the week before Dark Souls III, so all round Push Square, there is much anticipation – and a little despair. Seriously, though, there's more variety in this week's WAYP than any previous editions. We have a sneaking suspicion that that won't be the case next time, so make the most of it. Sammy Barker, Editor: I blame Robert...

A mess
It's the weekend already? The Easter break has seriously confused our working week, with Saturday seemingly arriving 24 hours earlier than it should. We're not ones to complain, though, as we'll be packing our premature time off with tons of PlayStation 4 games. Below, you'll find what we're playing – but don't forget to share your plans in...

Quit poaching our egg-cellent puns
Pass the Mini Eggs, because the Easter weekend is hare-ly underway – and we've still plenty of yolks left. Look, we know that you've probably had un oeuf of our Easter puns, but don't be a rotten egg and make us stop. Sunny side thinkin' – that's the spirit! Sammy Barker, Editor: You're not going to believe...

Hearth fire
It's the weekend, it's almost Easter, and the evenings are getting lighter all of the time: the summer is coming, folks. Alas, it's still too cold to go outside and do sociable things, so we'll be spending all of our time with our PlayStation platforms of choice. The eternal question is: what will we be playing? Sammy Barker, Editor: I...

Growing pains
And thus marks the end to a clumsy week, where your humble host has messed up his elbow and pulled a muscle in his neck. The weekend brings the promise of rest and relaxation – or at least it would if we didn't have a handful of previews to write ahead of their embargo lifting next week. FML. Sammy Barker, Editor: I've barely...

The big question
A week of experimentation concludes with something very familiar – it's WAYP time. For those of you who are near – we could probably use a recap every over 100 issues – this is the article where we all come together to discuss what we're planning to play over the course of the weekend. Are you sitting comfortably? Then let's...

Just dance
It's the weekend, which means that it's time to dig out your Little Mix CD and start dancing like it's 2016. Or you could just switch on your PlayStation 4 and sit down with some games, which is what we'll be doing. Everyone's got two left feet here at Push Square Towers, y'see. Sammy Barker, Editor: I can't talk about what I'll be...

Weekend fighters
Want to know what the worst thing about the weekend is? Trying to come up with an introduction to WAYP. Y'know, this author's seriously considering concocting a copy and paste intro that can be recycled every week. For now, though, we'll simply make a passing comment about the weather – it's a bit drizzly here in the UK. Sammy...

One more time
Sorry for the late WAYP today, it's been a busy start to Saturday. Doesn't mean you can't jump aboard this train a little late, though, as we're on a one-way trip to weekend gaming heaven. Or something. To be honest with you, these introductions get harder to write every week. Sammy Barker, Editor: I've been on a bit of a walking...

Pasta master
Thinking up introductions to WAYP really is the bane of this author's week. It's immensely challenging trying to dream up new things to talk about in this space, but sadly it's part of the job. Today, your humble host is going to mention Spaghetti Bolognese, as it's something that Kell mentioned in his submission. Is there a more...

'Tubin'
What is up, guys? It's yer boy, get2sammyb, and todayyy… We've got something really exciting for you guys. To celebrate over 80 comments from you guys on last week's WAYP, guys, we've decided to pool together the Push Square guys in order to milk this feature dry for the 103rd time, guys. Remember to like, share, and subscribe once you're...

Gotta go fast
Despite being the weekend, your humble host has a lot to do today, so consider this edition of WAYP hastily assembled like a ploughman's sandwich without any lettuce or tomato – or pickle, for that matter. What are we even talking about? Dunno, filling space out, innit. That might be enough? Yes, it's enough. Sammy Barker, Editor:...

It's cold
Winter has arrived. No, really – the greenery of the UK has turned an icy shade of white, and we've reverted to performing star jumps in the Push Square office just to stay warm. It's been a bit of a quiet week here in the PlayStation Nation, but a deluge of new releases are about to deploy, so we may as well make the most of the down...

Triple digits
We've only gone and reached our 100th edition of WAYP – an occasion that would be worth marking if this author hadn't got in a muddle and assumed that this week's instalment was actually Issue 99. Whoops. Oh well, at least we've got a bumper article this week for you, with virtually every Push Square team member turning out in force...

Happy New Year
It may be a new year, but the same old WAYP you know and love is back for another 12 month run. With this week's edition, feel free to share some of your gaming resolutions alongside your immediate itinerary – we'd love to know what you're planning to achieve on PlayStation in 2016. Sammy Barker, Editor: I'm still playing Fallout...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This... Christmas?
O come all ye gamers
'Twas the night before Christmas and all round Push Square, the team were playing Rocket League in abhorrent knitwear. Sammy was scoring goal after goal. "Stop," screamed Robert, "Or you'll be getting coal!" So we changed the game – TowerFall the choice. And we all played till Christmas in jovial voice. Sammy Barker, Editor:...

Yes, we're late
No, we will not miss a week. Sorry about the delayed article, y'all – your humble host had some holiday plans today, so we're well aware that this is hours later than it should be. But love is certainly not over, as this author has scaled to the top of the esoteric brick puzzle named life and delivered you your regularly scheduled...

Deck the fools
Apparently it's already 12th December, which means that many of you are probably just realising that you have Christmas gifts to buy and decorations to assemble. Gulp. There's still time to get all of that sorted, though, so we recommend shirking your responsibilities and sitting pretty with your PlayStation platform of choice...

Press conference appetisers
We're sure that you can forgive us the brief WAYP this week as we ready ourselves for PlayStation Experience 2015. Sony's show will be consuming most of our attention here at Push Square Towers, but we're all hoping to squeeze in the odd gaming session or two. You'll find our itinerary below. Sammy Barker, Editor: I...

Thanks for the video games
We're fast approaching our centenary issue of WAYP, which can't come soon enough seeing as we've run out of things to write in these increasingly awkward pre-ambles. It's amazing to think that we've been putting this feature together for almost three years now. In fact, it's something that your humble host would, y'know,...

Winter is coming
The celebrations of last week are long over, which means that it's back to your regularly scheduled WAYP this wintery weekend. Apart from Just Cause 3 and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, all of the big Christmas blockbusters are out now – but which ones will be holding the attention of our team over the holidays? Judging by some...

Feeling the fallout
A bunch of the Push Square team will be celebrating Nintendo Life's tenth anniversary this weekend, so it's a short and sweet WAYP from us. That's okay, though, because you've got acres of comments space to flesh out this article with your own gaming itinerary. Get to it. Jamie O'Neill, Reviewer: I'm revisiting Super Star Wars...

Back to black
We're right in the thick of the busy Christmas releases period now, with Call of Duty: Black Ops III no doubt consuming plenty of attention this weekend – and Fallout 4 now mere days away. As always, we've invited a gaggle of enthusiastic staffers to share their weekend gaming plans – but we want to know what you're up to, too...

Trick or treat
Boo! We love it when a public holiday happens to coincide with WAYP – even if Hallowe'en isn't technically, y'know, a public holiday. Oh, whatever – 31st October offers the perfect opportunity to settle down with some spooky games. But what will be raising your pulse rate? Freak us out in the comments section below. Sammy Barker,...

Chatter boxes
Wow, are we really up to Issue 90 already? It only feels like yesterday that we quietly robbed this feature idea from our friends over at Nintendo Life, and it's gone from strength to strength since then. A stat: since Issue One was published on 2nd March 2013 there have been over 4,500 comments on these articles – that's comparable...

Installing... 99%
Okay, we know that we're a little bit late with this week's edition of WAYP – but your humble host has reserved this weekend to finish setting up his new computer. Fortunately, the task has now been completed, which means that normal service can resume. It's time to talk about all of the games that we'll be playing this weekend,...

Time to move on
It's a weekend of change here at Push Square Towers, as your humble host goes through the arduous but exciting process of upgrading from a computer that's been in use since 2006. This PC was not only used to design the very first iteration of this website – the files are still on it – but has watched it rise from hobbyist blog to...

Take your pick
It's surely not the weekend again? The weeks seem to fly by of late – but perhaps that's because we're having so much fun. There have been tons of new releases recently, keeping our team appropriately busy. Here's everything that we're playing right now, but do chip in with your own selections in the comments section below. Robert...

In a hurry
Type Sammy, type! It's the eve of EGX 2015, so we're putting together WAYP abnormally early this time. Of course, you won't know that because you'll be reading this increasingly unnecessary pre-amble on Saturday. Here's everything that the team are planning to play this weekend. Alex Stinton, Reviewer: This weekend, I'll be descending...

From Tokyo with love
And breathe again. Push Square Towers has been a hive of activity this week, with TGS 2015 in full swing. But while we've been enjoying bringing you all of the big news from Tokyo, we are looking forward to a breather this weekend – and a video game or two. As has become a tradition in these parts, here's what we're playing...

Raiding party
What? The end of another week already? We're rapidly approaching the last few months of 2015 now, so we can see these articles getting bigger and bigger as we get closer and closer to the holiday rush. Indeed, now's the time to try and get your backlog sorted out before the blockbuster releases start pouring in - but we're not exactly...

Ahead of schedule
The sun has set on another week, but there's one major difference this time: we've actually got WAYP ready relatively early this time. In fact, this level of organisation is practically unheard of here at Push Square Towers, as responses from staff members were solicited yesterday – and the entire article's been completed long...

Supersize us
Summer appears to be coming to a close, but in celebration of National Burger Day recently, we hope that there's one last BBQ on the agenda for you all. We can't think of a better way to spend the weekend than with a DualShock 4 in one hand and a hot dog in the other – who cares whether it's cloudy or not? Sammy Barker, Editor: For...

Talk it out
It's just dawned on everyone at Push Square Towers that we've somehow produced 81 issues of WAYP. For starters, it's amazing that we haven't missed an edition yet – but even more incredible is that this remains one of the more popular features on the site. Who'd have thought that something so simple would be so successful? Sammy...

And relax
The sun has set on another not-so glorious summer week, in which the weather has been temperamental and the gaming news sporadic. Still, at least we have a new issue of WAYP to pad out our features section, eh? Here's what the team – with a few new faces – will be playing this weekend. Sammy Barker, Editor: I'm having a fantastic...

Inner smile
The Premier League season is back underway, so that means that this author will be spending the next ten or so months composing WAYP with half an eye on the BBC text updates. Of course, this article isn't about football, but the PlayStation games that will be keeping you company all weekend. Here's what our team are up to. Sammy Barker,...

Bring on the Bratwurst
It's the calm before the storm otherwise known as Gamescom 2015, although Sony's press conference absence has left us pondering just how busy we're going to be over the coming days. With the likes of Mafia III and Horizon: Zero Dawn all lined up, though, we're sure that it's going to be a good one – even if it does feel like...

Choo-choo
Nothing stops the WAYP train – even though this editor's forgetfulness threatens to derail things pretty much every week. Fortunately, we've managed to string up enough scribes to fuel this feature's steam engine right at the last minute, so our flawless record continues for yet another week. Choo-choo! Sammy Barker, Editor: It's the...

Let's go round again
And just like that, it's the weekend. To be honest, your humble host is feeling a bit drained after the excitement – and subsequent late night – of the Shenmue III Kickstarter, so you'll find no witty comments within this drawn out pre-amble. Then again, we exhausted our selection of those about... Oh, two years ago, didn't...

New balls, please
The weekend has finally arrived, which means that it's Wimbledon finals time. Of course, if you're not interested in scoffing strawberries while marvelling at Roger Federer's ability to make tennis balls bow to his every whim, then you'll probably be playing some PlayStation games. As such, let's get this latest edition of WAYP...

It's too hot for this
Here in the UK, we're currently still enduring a rather sweaty heatwave. Now before you start, yes, we realise that other, generally more sunny countries deal with heat like this on a regular basis, but we Brits just aren't used to it, as evidenced by everyone walking around in public without their shirts on - the dirty...

SW19
It's been a much tamer week here at Push Square Towers after the intensity of E3 2015. For starters, Robert Ramsey's taken some well deserved days off, which means that we haven't had to hear about the latest Samurai Warriors every six or so minutes. Moreover, there's been a real dearth of big news following last week's tidal wave. Let's hope...

Back to Earth
Wow, what an incredible week – thank you for sharing it with us on Push Square! We've had a lot of fun covering E3 2015, but it's definitely time for us to shift down a gear and get a bit of rest this weekend. And what better way to do that than with a spot of weekend gaming? Here's what we'll be playing over the next few days...

All aboard the hype train
There's not an enormous amount of time for games at Push Square Towers right now, as E3 2015 preparations take centre stage. Still, with the first conference not set to kick off until late Sunday, there's plenty of time to kill. So, in customary weekend fashion, we want to know what you're playing. Sammy Barker, Editor:...

Choo! Choo!
All aboard, all aboard – the WAYP train is about to leave the station. We've a carriage full of Push Square staffers all gagging to share their weekend gaming plans – and we've brought a few new faces along for the ride. Of course, this isn't a one-way trip – don't forget to drop your gaming agenda in the comments section below...

Once more with feeling
Ah, the weekend couldn't come soon enough for this particular author, as it's been an eye-opening couple of days. With the FA Cup Final on the television, several new games to play, and the sun even shining, you won't hear your humble host complaining over the next 48 hours – even if Arsenal beat local team Aston Villa...

Cry us a Rivia
It's the end of another lively week here at Push Square Towers, which means that it's time for your regular dose of WAYP. We've been beating The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt drum pretty hard here of late, but we've got a sneaking suspicion that you'll be doing something similar in the comments section. Prove us right below. Sammy Barker,...

Brilliance in brevity
A short but sweet edition of WAYP this week, as the bulk of the team's busy with various review assignments. Even though we're technically in the "lull" before E3, there's still tons of software deploying on the PlayStation 4 – partly due to those all-important indie titles that Sony has signed up. Will the smaller digital...

Red faced
Whoops! This author totally forgot about WAYP this week, meaning that he was forced to send an embarrassed email to the rest of the team this morning, begging for submissions. Fortunately, a handful of scribes followed through, which means our weekend feature is still yet to miss a week. This is impressive form considering how forgetful...

The late edition
It's been a tiring few days of travel here at Push Square Towers, so we apologise for the tardiness both on the site and in publishing What Are You Playing – it won't happen again (any time soon). With our batteries recharged and our minds refocused, though, it's time to look forward, as we prepare to take the site to the next...
