News God of War PS4 Pro Lets You Pick Between Resolution or Performance
The choice is yours
God of War’s guaranteed to look stunning on the standard PlayStation 4, but if you do happen to have a PS4 Pro – or you’re picking up that spiffing new limited edition – then you will have some options to choose how you want to play it. There’ll be a 4K option, of course, which will checkerboard to 2160p as previously...
News PS4's TV and Video Interface Revamped in the United States
Deal with it
Sony’s rolled out the revised TV & Video section for the PlayStation 4 in the United States, bringing it up to speed with the European version. This essentially adds an additional layer to the browsing experience, but allows the platform holder to push sponsored content in your direction – some of which you can tailor by logging...

Frontier’s dinosaur-themed park building sim Jurassic World Evolution will make your glass of water ripple from 12th June on the PlayStation 4 – but only digitally to begin with.

News Red Faction Guerrilla Is Getting Re-Mars-tered for PS4
Boom
Explosive open world adventure Red Faction Guerrilla is getting re-Mars-tered for the PlayStation 4 – and yes, that is the pun that publisher THQ Nordic is running with.

Home run
Sony San Diego doesn’t always get the credit that it deserves for MLB The Show, with the franchise routinely overlooked by PlayStation fans as forum list wars focus on the heavy hitters like God of War and The Last of Us: Part II. But the developer’s quietly created one of the best sports series available on any platform, and while this...
Hands On WipEout PSVR Will Absolutely Melt Your Mind

Movie Review Tomb Raider (2018) - Dumb But Fun
Croft aloft
Well, it could have been worse – just ask Angelina Jolie. Tomb Raider’s been revamped for the silver screen, with a fresh-faced Alicia Vikander stepping into the tank top of the iconic Lara Croft. Following in the footsteps of the fairly recent video game reboot, this blockbuster-on-a-budget attempts to ground the fledgling...
Round the bend
Republished on Wednesday 28th March 2018: We're bringing this review back from the archives following the announcement of April's PlayStation Plus lineup. The original text follows. Despite the brand debuting well over a decade ago, TrackMania: Turbo marks the arcade racer's first release on a PlayStation platform. A favourite on the...
Review Batman: The Enemy Within - Episode Five: Same Stitch
Joke's on you
Telltale’s take on the Batman universe has been one of the few shining lights in its portfolio of late, and The Enemy Within has successfully eschewed the sophomore slump with another sterling five episode series that turns everything you know about the Dark Knight on its pointy-eared head. This finale is far from perfect, but...
Corny
The mainstream success of the farming genre may be attributed directly to a certain YouTube video showing tractors breakdancing to dubstep, but agricultural adventures are big business these days. Case in point: Techland’s Pure Farming 2018 is the latest in a long line of pretenders attempting to cull Giants Software’s ripened crown. But...

Store Update 27th March 2018 (Europe)
Prepare to cry
Record scratch! Yes, it’s another big week on the European PlayStation Store. Perhaps we should give up writing this sentence every single time, and only reserve it for when there are, like, 50 new games. Which, the way the PS Store is going, can’t be too far away. Anyway, highlights this time include Far Cry 5 and Tempest 4,000...

A true Treasure
Classic arcade shoot-‘em-up Ikaruga looks poised to make its PlayStation debut, as the title has been rated for release on the PlayStation 4 in Germany.

News Photography RPG The Good Life Has a Crack at Kickstarter
From the makers of Deadly Premonition and Panzer Dragoon
Deadly Premonition director Hidetaka ‘SWERY’ Suehiro’s barmy “debt repayment daily life role-playing game” The Good Life has hopped from crowd-funding platform Fig to the more recognisable Kickstarter, where it’s coveting a much smaller target of $650,000 in order to get made for...
News There's a Freakin' Fruit Themed Kart Racer Coming to PS4
Fruit loops
If you thought Coffin Dodgers’ council go-karts based racing premise was a stretch, then you may need to sit down before watching All-Star Fruit Racing’s debut trailer.

Balls
Poor ol’, R.B.I. Baseball 18. You can’t help but feel sorry for this arcade-inspired adaptation of the Great American Pastime™, which is published and developed by Major League Baseball itself. Primarily designed to ensure there’s an MLB presence on multiple platforms, the PlayStation 4 edition is routinely forced to sit in the shadow...
Review Batman: The Enemy Within - Episode Four: What Ails You
Ail be back
It’s testament to Telltale’s work within the Batman universe that we didn’t even realise Episode 4: What Ails You does away with the cape and cowl almost entirely. That’s right, for the majority of Season Two’s penultimate instalment, you’ll be blitzing it as billionaire playboy, Bruce Wayne. Clocking in at around an hour,...
News God of War Explains Atreus' Role During Combat
Word up, son
The challenge for games like God of War is incorporating a computer controlled companion that isn’t a hindrance. Atreus, the son of Kratos, plays a huge role in Sony Santa Monica’s latest and greatest – but this isn’t the drawn-out escort mission that it could have been. Instead, the youngster is a capable warrior in his own...
