We've got no idea what it is, though

Japan Studio is on fire. After years of deflecting questions pertaining to The Last Guardian and twiddling its thumbs, the Eastern outfit has actually decided to start making some games again. It’s already released the brilliant Soul Sacrifice this year, and still has both Puppeteer and Knack in the pipeline...

Fate can be cruel

Overnight, rumours were rife that Bungie was working on a spin-off of its first-person shooter Destiny for the PlayStation Vita. The speculation certainly made some sense – Sony has partnered pretty heavily with the former Halo developer of late, and it recently filed a trademark for the name Destiny of Spirits. Alas, it’s not

Neutrino speed

There are a decent roster of titles available as part of this week’s European PlayStation Store update, but you only really need to know about one: Velocity Ultra. After a long wait, FuturLab’s award winning arcade hit has finally teleported its way onto the PlayStation Vita, and we couldn’t be more excited. Other new arrivals...

Dust hunt

Yes, we’re late, but that doesn’t deter from the contents of this week’s North American PlayStation Store update.

Let’s get down to business...

Pedal to the metal

It’s often billed as the most popular PlayStation property, but just how big is the Gran Turismo franchise? Speaking during the series’ 15th anniversary event at Silverstone earlier today, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe’s head honcho Jim Ryan revealed that the brand has raced past an extraordinary 70 million units to...

Kazunori Yamauchi has a next generation version in mind

While it was largely expected beforehand, this afternoon’s Gran Turismo 6 announcement proved to be a shocker for some folks. The sequel is racing onto the PlayStation 3 rather than the PlayStation 4, resulting in

Ongoing appeal

The sarcastic ‘Year of the PlayStation 3’ meme has existed as long as the console itself. Lacking software and struggling commercially next to the more affordable Xbox 360 and innovative Nintendo Wii, forum posters and bloggers adopted the scornful slogan in order to mock the manufacturer’s initial missteps with its current...

Right around the corner

In characteristically confused fashion, Sony has officially confirmed that it will steer Gran Turismo 6 onto the PlayStation 3 this holiday. Series creator Kazunori Yamauchi made the anticipated announcement at the franchise's anniversary event at Silverstone, England earlier today, confirming

Head in the clouds

It looks like ‘Greatness Awaits’ really will be the PlayStation 4’s slogan, as Siliconera has uncovered a trademark registration for the phrase filed by Sony Computer Entertainment America. Last week, the website posted a leaked script pert

Clean driving

While the platform holder’s anniversary event has yet to start, rumours are rife that the next iteration in the simulation series has been officially announced for the PlayStation 3. South African outlet iAfrica claims to have received a press release confirming

Reveal races nearer

If you had any doubt over the kind of news that this afternoon’s Gran Turismo event would bring, this image taken from the franchise’s official website should put your questions to rest. Snoops poking around the site uncovered this blank page for the still unannounced Gran Turismo 6

Kingdoms of Amalur, Demon's Souls, and more up for grabs

There’s a bit of a medieval theme to next month’s European PlayStation Plus offering. Sony has confirmed that Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning will be available for free from 29th May. It’ll be joined around the, er, round table by Demon’s Souls and the unmissable ICO & Shadow of...

Console could still come to life

Sony’s financial forecasts did not paint a very promising future for the PlayStation Vita last week. The company predicted that it would sell 5 million portable platforms over the next twelve months, more or less indicating that it’s given up hope on its latest handheld. But

Soaring through the sky

Indian indie outfit GameShastra is on the verge of setting free a new PlayStation Network title named Dare to Fly, according to an outed Australian rating. The listing – spotted by P

Bedtime reading

Killzone: Shadow Fall is arguably the best looking PlayStation 4 game that we’ve seen thus far – but a new technical breakdown published by developer Guerrilla Games has revealed that the title’s debut demo barely even prompted its potent parent hardware to sweat. The footage shown during Februar

Promising signs

The dreaded post-release content drought has affected almost every new console – but it’s been particularly pronounced of late. Despite the best efforts of Sony, the PlayStation Vita has struggled to secure a steady stream of content, and the same situation is currently occurring on Nintendo’s Wii U. Fortunately, the...

Crab it while you can

Coconut Dodge may not be the best way to spend company with a crab – we prefer the blighters when they’re dressed in batter and accompanied with sweet chilli sauce – but it certainly ranks pretty high on the list. As such, we’re pumped to learn that Brighton-based developer FuturLab is mere weeks away from setting...

Exhaust fumes of expectation

Sony’s set to shine its headlights on the future of the Gran Turismo franchise tomorrow. The platform holder, tailed by a procession of high-profile automotive manufacturers, will descend on the legendary British race course Silverstone in order to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of the simulation series. The...
