Should have gone to Specsavers

Killer Is Dead looks poised to give Yakuza’s table tennis mini-game a run for its money in the inappropriate gameplay stakes. This brand new clip – completely in Japanese – shows protagonist Mondo Zappa seemingly accumulating points by staring at an aesthetically pleasing female’s assets. After eyeing the...

Looks a bit Foxy

Konami’s hoping that Pro Evolution Soccer 2014's implementation of Hideo Kojima's new Fox Engine will cause a cup upset this year. This brand new teaser trailer – building up to next week’s full reveal – shows lots of grass, an ecstatic crowd, and some fancy footwork. We’ll get to see the full game during the Japanese...

Craft your copy now

Assuming that you purchased a copy of God of War: Ascension earlier in the year – and you really should have done – you’ll be able to unlock a demo for The Last of Us right now. To access the slice of survival horror goodness, all you need to do is select the appropriate icon from the mythological demon slayer’s menu, and...

Press conference commandments

In a little over ten days, the gaming industry will descend on Los Angeles for this year’s E3 – the most important exposition in interactive entertainment. While the convention itself is undeniably the hottest attraction – quite literally, or so we’re told – it’s the pre-show press conferences that...

A picture paints a thousand words

Could the box art for Saints Row IV possibly be any more perfect? It shows an image of the President of the United States – that’s you, by the way – sitting in a swish armchair in what appears to be the Oval Office, while a couple of gun-toting girls in pencil skirts point submachine guns at a giant energy...

On the prowl

This week’s European PlayStation Store update is quite the varied feast. Just some of the highlights on offer at the gaming buffet are Wonderbook: Diggs Nightcrawler, Fuse, and The HD Adventures of Rotating Octopus Character. Elsewhere, Quell Memento is also up for grabs, while shameless impostor

Cruisin' with your posse

DriveClub may not be the only team-based racing game on the horizon, as Driver: San Francisco developer Ubisoft Reflections is reportedly working on a brand new vehicular property for the PlayStation 4 (and possibly the PlayStation 3) named The Crew. According to the original report by the Examiner, the game is being pitched...

Manhunt for mana

Namco Bandai's Tales series is currently celebrating its 15th anniversary, and the party mood has left us practically itching for the JRPG franchise's next instalment, Tales of Xillia, which is due out on 6th August in North America and 9th August in Europe. The story follows the journey of medical student Jude Mathis and his...

Got to have Faith

The original Mirror’s Edge was a sequel away from being brilliant. The first-person free-running adventure offered a unique experience in a saturated genre, but suffered from some hokey shooting sections and cheap comic book cut-scenes. It failed to cross publisher EA Games’ sales threshold, and a successor was subsequently...

Tales from the apocalypse

The Last of Us’ mysterious multiplayer mode will not be the only area explored in the game’s season pass, as developer Naughty Dog has confirmed that there’s new single player content on the way. “The journey and cast of characters in The Last of Us lends itself to thorough narrative exploration, and we’ve got...

Calm before the storm

In a few weeks, Naughty Dog will deploy The Last of Us on the PlayStation 3 – and you can pre-order your copy right now from the PlayStation Store. The special digital version will allow you to play the game while it’s downloading – a first for the PS3. This week’s North American update also boasts the survival...

New trailer focuses on gameplay

Solid Snake’s new voice actor will be revealed during Konami’s pre-E3 press conference on 6th June, according to a teaser image posted on NeoGAF. Legendary performer David Hayter waved goodbye to the character earlier in the year, after insinuating that

Hoping to light a spark

Despite being hit by a tirade of middling reviews, Insomniac Games is aiming to stick with its fledgling Fuse franchise. Writing on the company’s official website earlier today, a candid Ted Price admitted that the developer is aware of the negative response to the title – but the studio’s going to stick with the...

'My alchemy brings all the boys to the yard'

The Atelier franchise has been running for a long time – sixteen years to be exact. And in those sixteen years, developer Gust Corporation has produced fifteen entries in the main series and a further seven side games. With so many Atelier titles on offer, it's easy to completely dismiss Atelier Ayesha:...

Sea slick

Middling survival horror up-port Resident Evil: Revelations has bobbed straight to the top of the UK sales charts, proving that last year’s disappointing Resident Evil 6 hasn’t ruined the series’ reputation for good. The white-knuckle shooter fought off strong competition from last week’s frontrunn

Necessary artillery

If there’s anything that Americans hate more than commies, it’s not being armed to the teeth. Fortunately, Saints Row IV’s wonderfully tongue-in-cheek ‘Commander in Chief’ special edition recognises that fact, bundling the ultimate ‘Merica machine gun. The Swiss army knife of firepower boasts mini-guns,...

Till kingdom come

After an incredible four years, Square Enix is on the verge of summoning Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn onto the PlayStation 3. The title – which is due out on 27th August – was originally announced during Sony’s E3 press conference back in 2009. The game launched on the PC a year later, only to be completely rebuilt...

Float your boat

Resident Evil: Revelations’ seafaring setting may bob and weave like a luxury cruise liner should, but beyond the nautical accessories that dress the Queen Zenobia’s corridor walls, this is a game that feels much more familiar than its crafty subtitle would lead you to believe. A high definition port of last year’s Nintendo 3DS...

New week revelations

The sun may be shining, but you won’t find us spending our weekend outside – we can absorb all of the Vitamin D that we need from the glow of the television screen. In keeping with tradition, we’ve gathered together a number of Push Square team members in order to find out what’s on their gaming agenda over the coming...
