Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 97
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...
Talking Point Did PlayStation Experience 2015 Meet Your Expectations?
Fan fest
While PlayStation Experience 2015 is only just getting started for attendees, the keynote is now over. Sony used its last big show of the year to show some more Final Fantasy VII Remake, announce Ni no Kuni 2, and reveal that a lot of games are out today. It's also worth remembering that the first batch of PlayStation 2 titles will be...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 96
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...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 95
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...
Talking Point Which PS2 Games Would You Play on PS4?
The third place
Assuming a report on Digital Foundry is accurate, you may already have a PlayStation 2 emulator inside your PlayStation 4. The site tested the trio of new Star Wars games that are available as part of the firm's special edition Darth
Talking Point Is the Force Strong with Star Wars Battlefront on PS4?
Share an opinion, you must
Our very own Alex Stinton is currently engaged in some rather rigorous Jedi training, but he informs us that he'll be using his newfound powers to bring you a review of Star Wars Battlefront as soon as possible. In the meantime, we figured that it would be fun to gauge your opinion on the first-person shooter – after...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 93
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...
Talking Point Should Sony Build an Elite DualShock 4 Controller for PS4?
A more joyful joystick
The announcement of the Xbox One Elite controller at E3 2015 was met with furrowed brows here at Push Square Towers. It wasn't that we thought the controller looked bad – far from it – but we felt that peripherals are already outrageously priced on both new-gen consoles, so who would ever stump up $149.99 for a single...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 92
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...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 91
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,...
Talking Point Did Sony's Big Paris Games Week Presser Impress You?
From France with love
The curtain has just closed on Sony's hotly anticipated Paris Games Week press conference, where we got a glimpse at Housemarque's next project, Horizon: Zero Dawn and Uncharted 4's multiplayer. The highlight was definitely Gran Turismo Sport – but Detroit and WiLD are worth mentioning as well. The question is: what did you...
Talking Point Is the PlayStation 2 the Greatest Games Console of All Time?
Live in your world, play in ours
Republished on Monday, 26th October 2015: We're bringing this feature back from the archives to celebrate the PS2's big 15th Anniversary in North America today. The original text follows. Originally published on Saturday, 29th December 2012: It was evident from the moment that the PlayStation 2 first arrived on...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 90
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...
Talking Point Does EA Access Really Represent Poor Value for PS4 Players?
Vault the fence
It's been over a year now since Sony deemed EA Access poor value for PlayStation 4 players. The subscription-based service – which allows Xbox One owners to pay £3.99/$4.99 a month for, er, access to an ever expanding library of EA published games – was originally pitched to the PlayStation maker and Microsoft, but only the...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 89
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,...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 88
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 87
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...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 86
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 85
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...
Talking Point What Did You Think of Sony's Pre-TGS Press Conference?
The talk of Tokyo
Sony's just closed the curtain on its pre-Tokyo Game Show press conference, which was breathless at points. The platform holder revealed a new Bloodborne expansion, as well as Gravity Rush 2 for the PlayStation 4. Third-parties were also out in force, with SEGA announcing two new Yakuza titles, while Bandai Namco rolled out fresh...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 84
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 83
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...
Talking Point What Is a Video Game?
The million dollar question
Video game. Noun. A game played by electronically manipulating images produced by a computer program on a monitor or other display. Video games are more diverse than they've ever been. As the market matures, we're starting to see new ideas introduced that challenge the very rules upon which the industry has been built...

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 82
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 81
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 80
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 79
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,...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 78
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...

Talking Point What August PlayStation Plus Freebies Do You Desire?
Make believe
Amazingly, it's that time of the month yet again where our attention turns to the Instant Game Collection. It may only feel like yesterday that Rocket League released for free, but August's PlayStation Plus update should be announced sometime next week – barring a last-minute disaster, of course. This means that it's time to...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 77
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...
Talking Point Should More AAA Titles Adopt a Service Approach?
Increasing engagement
Once upon a time, gaming was quite a disposable pastime. You'd shell out for the latest blockbuster from your nearest store, run through it a couple of times, and then trade it back in – often in exchange for the next best thing. And so the cycle would repeat. However, the PlayStation 3 generation mixed things up, with the...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 76
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 72
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...
Talking Point Was Square Enix's E3 2015 Press Conference a Success?
Keyblade kings
Square Enix's E3 2015 press conference was a slightly more humble affair compared to the bombast of yesterday's pressers, but the publisher still managed to pack it with a diverse selection of games. The new Nier title announced for the PlayStation 4 was probably the biggest highlight, but the sumptuous new Kingdom Hearts III footage...
Talking Point Did Sony's Big E3 2015 Press Conference Deliver?
The big one
The doors of the LA Convention Centre haven't even opened yet, but E3 2015 has already been crazy. Sony has just rounded out a blockbuster day of media briefings, where the likes of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Project Morpheus featured prominently. Arguably the biggest announcement, though, was Shenmue III. And Final Fantasy VII...
Talking Point Did Ubisoft's E3 2015 Press Conference Restore Your Faith?
Softly, now
Another Ubisoft E3 press conference has come and gone, but what did you make of it? The French publisher showcased, as expected, the likes of Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Tom Clancy's The Division, but it also threw surprise For Honor and Ghost Recon: Wildlands reveals into the mix. As always, we want to hear what you thought. Are you...
Talking Point Was EA's E3 2015 Press Conference Up Your Alley?
Electronic arts
EA's been a bit disappointing in the E3 press conference department of late, but it attempted to up its game today. While it had its usual roster of sports games on display, we were most impressed by the likes of Mirror's Edge Catalyst and Need for Speed. The highlight, however, had to be Star Wars: Battlefront, which looks stunning...
Talking Point Did Bethesda's E3 2015 Press Conference Blow You Away?
First time plucky
And we're off. Unless you're a big Nintendo fan – we've heard that there are one or two of you out there – then Bethesda's big E3 2015 press conference may have just marked the start of your show. The company took to the stage tonight to host its first ever Los Angeles-based media briefing, where it showcased a handful of...
Talking Point What Are Your Hopes and Fears for PS4, Vita at E3 2015?
Last minute nerves
Reminder: E3 2015 is upon us. If the special homepage wasn't already a good enough giveaway – nifty, eh? – then this editor's apocalyptic stress levels are a sure sign. As gaming fans, the reason that we all love the Los Angeles convention is because it allows us to dream and despair. There are the highs, like Jack Tretton...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - E3 2015 Edition
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:...
Talking Point How Can Sony Sell You on Project Morpheus at E3 2015?
Making virtual reality a reality
Assuming that Project Morpheus isn't delayed, it'll be on store shelves by the time that E3 2016 rolls around. This means that Sony will presumably want to start shaping the promising PlayStation 4 peripheral into a real consumer product in Los Angeles next week, and that means that it's probably going to feature...
Talking Point What Role Will the PS Vita Play at E3 2015?
Handling the handheld
There was a time when pre-E3 conversations about the PlayStation Vita carried a whiff of hope. In the 18 months or so immediately following the format's release, we penned several articles explaining what the platform holder could do to reverse the ailing appliance's fortunes. It did, ultimately, introduce a handful of big...

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,...
Talking Point What Freebies Would You Like in June's PlayStation Plus Update?
Take your pick
If all goes to plan, June's big PlayStation Plus update should be announced at some point next week. Indeed, the content will likely roll out on 2nd June in North America and 3rd June in Europe, so we'd expect Sony to outline the offering on this coming Wednesday or Thursday – although it has left things until the last minute in the...
Talking Point Are You Enjoying The Witcher 3 on PS4 as Much as We Are?
Witch will it be
We reckon that reviews are important here at Push Square – we enjoy writing them, and it's even better if they're informative enough to help you to decide whether or not you want to splash your cash on a particular game. However, as with anything, we can't guarantee that you'll enjoy, or indeed hate, a release as much as we have...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 68
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 67
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...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 66
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...

Blood and thunder
Issue 65, already? Blimey, the weeks just fly by, don't they? We're now approaching a couple of quiet weeks on Planet PlayStation, so there's never been a better time to put a dent into your backlog. But will it be older games padding out your itinerary this week, or are you still working through more recent releases? Here's what...
Talking Point Does the PS4 Really Need Big Holiday Exclusives?
A different perspective
There's been much navel gazing by some of the industry's bigger publications of late: what does Sony have in store for Fall 2015? The delay of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, a tentpole title at any time of the year, has left the PlayStation 4's slate empty; Tearaway Unfolded, Until Dawn, and

Fists of fury
Get over here! No, we're not going to play body tennis with your skull, but we're instead inviting you for a good ol' chinwag about your weekend. The great ball o' fire in the sky's shining here in sunny England, but that hasn't stopped our ragtag crew of reviewers from shutting the curtains and getting stuck into some serious gaming...
Talking Point Is It Time to Introduce EA Access on PS4?
Star Wars: Battlefront will be playable first on Xbox One due to service
Microsoft's claiming that Xbox One owners will be able to play Star Wars: Battlefront first. While the headline that's doing the rounds may cause heart attacks among PlayStation 4 owners – the Redmond f
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 63
Lazy time
Another week, another edition of WAYP, another attempt at an "original" introduction. What Are You Playing This Weekend may be a popular feature here on Push Square, but by goodness, you try coming up with a new pre-amble each and every week. Perhaps we should hold some kind of competition for this – this author's fresh out of ideas...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Easter Edition 3
Un oeuf of the Easter puns
We'll be resisting temptation here at Push Square Towers, keeping an eye on our waistlines as the Mini Eggs flow freely elsewhere in the office. While we may be attempting to avoid indulging our sweet tooth, however, we will be bowing to our other main guilty pleasure – games. If you're not quite sure what to play this...
Talking Point What One Game Do You Always Come Back To?
The one and only
Addiction is a strong word, but that's how many would describe their need to play one single game time and time again. A title that you've never really been able to put down, something that your mind always wanders back to, whether it's because you're bored and unsure of what to play, or because you simply enjoy it so much. It may...

Happy hunting
We suspect that this week's WAYP is going to be dominated by one title: Bloodborne. Most of us here at Push Square Towers are getting down and dirty with From Software's latest, and we suspect that things will be much the same for many of you. A word of advice for everyone: DualShock 4's are really expensive, so don't throw one at the...

Fashionably late
WAYP waits for no man – well, apart from this author when he's running behind schedule. Yes, it's a Sunday, and yes, this article should have been up over 24 hours ago – but heck, at least its tardiness has given us something new to type in this introduction area. What are you playing this weekend? There's only a few hours left,...
Talking Point Are You Spending More Money Than Ever on Digital Games?
Happy shopper
With every game available simultaneously on the PlayStation Store now, digital transactions are becoming big business for Sony – but this wasn't always the case. In the early days of the PlayStation 3, downloadable titles consisted mostly of bitesized experiences – timewasters designed to fill the gap between retail releases. This...

Sod's law
And we're back with another edition of WAYP. It's a short and sweet entry this time (it's been one helluva week), but sometimes the best things come in small packages – at least, that's what this author is always telling himself. With the weekend here, you may be pondering whether to go outside – shopping, travelling, hiking, etc...
Talking Point Is This the End for the PlayStation 3?
This isn't living
In just over eight months' time, the PlayStation 3 will turn nine. Sony's always made a point of stressing that it will support its home consoles for at least ten years apiece, and it's not going to break that promise with its previous generation behemoth. But with publishers starting to focus solely on new formats like the...

A big one
And so marks the end of another long week. With the weather looking dismal – certainly in our neck of the woods, at least – video games seem like the perfect antidote for your winter blues. The big question is: what will you be playing this time around? Fortunately, we have a column designed to get to the bottom of just that. Sammy...

Hobnobs
It's a brief WAYP this week, as everyone at Push Square Towers is too busy actually enjoying their weekends to talk about it. This editor may have to resort to new tactics to encourage further engagement – perhaps the promise of office Hobnobs will do the job? We shall see. Sammy Barker, Editor: It's a mixture of all sorts for me this...
Talking Point How Important Is Game Length?
Time to find out
The Order: 1886 has caused a bit of a kerfuffle this weekend for supposedly being short, but how much does game length really matter? Some would argue that there's no point in spending money on a release that can be wrapped up in an evening or two, but many of us simply don't have the time to work through a 100 hour epic. It's a...

The power of love
Today is Valentine's Day, which means that you're either going to be very happy, very sad – or completely indifferent. Fortunately, whichever camp you fall into, there are always video games, and, regardless of special occasions, we're here to bring you your regularly scheduled dose of WAYP. In truth, this author has nothing...
Talking Point Do Review Scores Have a Future?
Number games
After an incredible 15 years – and more 8/10 jokes than we care to count – Eurogamer.net has dropped review scores. It's not the first site to do so – both Kotaku and Joystiq (RIP) ditched numbers and stars a while ago – but the news seems significant this time because our buddies from Brighton operate a more traditional...
Talking Point Has Persona 5's Gameplay Trailer Dulled Your Excitement for Final Fantasy XV?
Persona-lly speaking
Some wouldn't like to admit it, but it's not often that a Japanese role-playing game has the weight to make waves in the current climate of our industry – at least, not here in the West. But of course, like everything in life, when something good is destined to come along, it all comes at once. After almost a decade of as...

Wayne to go
There's a brilliant little application on the BBC website which allows you to track just how much professional footballers (of the non-American variety) earn. This author thought that it would be fun to see how much Manchester United and England player Wayne Rooney earns during the time that it takes to publish a weekly edition of WAYP...
Talking Point Are There Any Remasters You Still Want to See on PS4?
Harder, better, faster, stronger
“Oh dear, are they talking about remastered games again?" we hear you scream. “I want new games, not remasters!" Don't worry – we hear you. In truth, we'd be the first to admit that we're a bit sick of learning about last-gen re-releases – but we'd also be lying if we said that we've truly had our fill of...
