Mini Review Story of a Gladiator - A Simple But Surprisingly Addictive Little Brawler
Thumbs up
Story of a Gladiator is a deceptively decent indie beat-'em-up. Crafted by the tiny team over at Brain Seal Ltd, it puts you in the blood-soaked shoes of a warrior who fights for glory in a trio of equally blood-soaked arenas. At a glance the game looks a little cheap with its stiff animation and basic interface, but once you're swinging...

Why you shouldn't skip on Titanfall
PlayStation Plus' line-up for the month of December 2019 was announced yesterday, and as per usual, the response was mixed to say the least. The less said about Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame the better, but it's the inclusion of Respawn Entertainment's Titanfall 2

News NetherRealm Rules the Fighting Game Roost on PS4
Get over here
What’s the best-selling fighting game on the PlayStation 4? It probably won’t surprise you, but in the United States it’s Mortal Kombat X.

While in Europe the long-awaited sequel is holding its initial price, Amazon US is currently listing the game for $34.99 as part of its Black Friday sale. That perhaps speaks to the slow start the game has had when it...

Mini Review Gas Guzzlers Extreme - Nothing Extreme About This Ropey PS4 Racer
Put it in reverse
Gas Guzzlers Extreme is a bad name for a pretty bad game. A combat racer that looks and feels like a title from generations gone by, it fails to really impress on any level. PlayStation 4 is a platform that's suffered a lack of arcade racing games, but this one can't hold a candle to the few decent examples available. One of its...

News Shuhei Yoshida Shuts Down Xbox Boss' Comments on VR
Phil Spencer said "nobody's" asking for virtual reality
Update: Shuhei Yoshida, one of Sony's best known executives, has lowkey responded to comments from Xbox boss Phil Spencer regarding virtual reality. The suit seemed to take issue with the Microsoft man's insinuation that "no one" is asking for VR: Are you with Yoshida or Spencer in this...

News Battleborn Is Soon to Be No More as 2K Games Warns of Impending Server Switch-Off
No longer available on digital stores
The tale of Battleborn is a pretty tragic one. A hero shooter released just weeks before the enormously successful Overwatch, Gearbox's game was completely overshadowed, and failed to maintain a sizeable audience. Despite reviewing well and receiving several significant updates over the years, Battleborn fell...
Mini Review The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets - An Adorable But Brief PSVR Puzzler
Animal magic
The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets is a PlayStation VR puzzle game in which you swivel a handful of dioramas around in search of hidden animals. There's not much more to it than that, but it gets away with such a simple idea by presenting it wonderfully. It's an absolute walk in the park, but there's still a satisfaction to solving...
News Dreams Creator Transforms Table into Billiards Game, Blows Our Collective Minds
Snookerin' you tonight
Dreams is not out yet, but it’s already obvious that it’s the easiest 10/10 we’ll ever award. Just spare a moment to look at this embedded Tweet, and tell us you’re not impressed: So this is created entirely within the PlayStation 4 creation suite – but how? Well, we’re wondering the same thing to be honest. We...
News Sony's PlayStation Awards Show 2019 Will Be Broadcast Live Next Week, Seemingly in English
Congrats
The PlayStation Awards 2019 will be livestreamed on PlayStation's official YouTube channel, it seems. We've had no word on this, by the way -- the scheduled stream has only just popped up on the website. In years past, the PlayStation Awards have been Japanese events where developers and their games are celebrated. This year, however, it...
News Learn More About God of War's Development with New Podcast from Santa Monica Studio
Worlds Collide
Santa Monica Studio, the developer behind PlayStation 4's excellent God of War, is opening up even more about how the game was made. After creating a two-hour behind the scenes documentary earlier this year (which is well worth watching), members of the team have gathered to talk shop in a new podcast mini series. It's called Worlds...
"It's too early"
Over the last few years, CD Projekt Red has repeatedly stated that Cyberpunk 2077 will not have microtransactions. The topic has come up again and again, and the developer has always been quick to respond. It comes as no surprise, then, that the internet has flipped its collective sh*t over recent CD Projekt Red quotes that have,...
News Final Fantasy VII Remake 2 Is Now in Active Development
Until next time
We've known for a long, long time now that the Final Fantasy VII Remake launching March 2020 isn't the entire game -- rather the first third or so taking place in Midgar. It's a hugely expanded version of the city, but we've been wondering when we'll start to hear of what's to come beyond those boundaries. It's probably still going...

Rumour Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Remakes Incoming, Says Infamous Insider
E3 2019 leaker returns
The original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and its sequel are widely considered to be two of the very best games released on the PSone, so imagine our delight when reports began cropping up about potential remakes of the excellent twosome. According to one Twitter insider, who rather unceremoniously leaked almost the entirety of E3...
News One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 Release Date Sets Sail for March 2020
Land ho
One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 now has a release date, and guess what? It's yet another game that's going to sandwich itself between heavy hitters like Final Fantasy VII Remake and Cyberpunk 2077. January through May next year is starting to look ridiculous. Anyway, the anime-based brawler is due out on the 27th March 2020 -- that's just one...
News Game Dev Story and Other Kairosoft Titles Are Coming to PS4
Starting in Japan
Of all the time-wasters available on smartphones, none have hooked this author quite as much as Game Dev Story. It's a management sim about building up a development team, creating and releasing games, and expanding to keep up with demand. It's simple, but incredibly addictive. We've no doubt that this could also describe other...
News Cyberpunk 2077 'Seems to Be Doable' on PS5, But Not Planned for Launch
Port all but confirmed
CD Projekt Red's next big RPG, Cyberpunk 2077, is scheduled to release on PlayStation 4 next April. However, as the launch of next-gen consoles draws closer, it has become a common assumption that the game will eventually be ported to the upcoming PlayStation 5. It turns out that is indeed looking to be the case, although it...

News UK Sales Charts: Death Stranding Falls Out of the Top 10 as Call of Duty Reclaims Its Crown
Losing balance
Death Stranding has slipped and taken a tumble down the physical UK chart. Having already fallen from second to eighth last week, the unique PlayStation 4 adventure from Hideo Kojima now finds itself at number 13. New release Shenmue III doesn't exactly get in its way, either, debuting in 17th place. The top 10 is instead dominated...
Rumour PS Plus December 2019 PS4 Game Potentially Leaked Early
Come here boy
The PlayStation Plus line-up for December is always an important one as it will be the two PlayStation 4 games that purchasers of the console during the Christmas season will be able to download straight away.
