Plenty to play

PlayStation Vita evangelist and indie game aficionado Shahid Kamal Ahmad has taken to Twitter once again to tease the handheld’s impending line-up. Writing on the social networking site, the senior business development manager insinuated that there are “dozens” more titles on the way for the fledgling handheld. The exact nature...

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...

Fresh information on Sony's biggest Vita exclusive

Freedom Wars – the new PlayStation Vita exclusive from Japan Studio – sounds awesome. Following this week’s official reveal, Sony has followed up with a full 12-page feature on the adventure in Famitsu magazine, which offers a broad overview of what you can expect from the game when it...

Taking a leak

Everyone’s going barmy for the bathroom in this week’s European PlayStation Store update, as Men’s Room Mayhem bursts onto the PlayStation Vita. The pee ‘em up is joined by a whole host of hits that you won’t want to flush away, including Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, Resident Evil: Revelations, and, er, Fast & Furious:...

Sharp shootin'

This week’s North American PlayStation Store update has gone Ultimate Edition mad. Sony has collated a collection of digital bundles for a range of games, including Assassin’s Creed III, Far Cry 3, and Max Payne 3. Other new arrivals include Ratchet: Deadlocked, Call of Juarez: Gunsli

On the agenda

Seasoned online sleuth Superannution has uncovered some classified information regarding a cancelled Medal of Honor title that was in production for the PlayStation Vita. The game – which was in construction at Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City developer Slant Six – popped up on concept artist Alex Carigi’s personal...

Pick up your jaw

In most cases, an image says more than words ever can. That’s particularly true with these brand new Killzone: Mercenary screenshots. We could type out a mini-dissertation explaining why the PlayStation Vita exclusive is shaping up to be the best looking handheld game ever released, but we don’t really need to. One look at...

Media Molecule unfolds gorgeous new footage

We didn’t think that Media Molecule could possibly produce a more visually appealing game than LittleBigPlanet, but it’s really excelled itself with Tearaway. The portable platformer – which is set to deploy on the PlayStation Vita in October – takes place in a papercraft world, and judging by...

Open your eyes

Remember last week’s mysterious Japan Studio teaser? Sony’s followed it up with an official announcement, revealing Freedom Wars for the PlayStation Vita. The title – which is due out in 2014 – is described as a multiplayer action game, which means, well, it’s probably going to be a lot like Monster Hunter. There’s an...

Geth a load of this

Sackboy really is the ultimate cross-marketing opportunity, isn’t he? Sony has teamed up with EA to bring some brand new outfits based on the Mass Effect series to LittleBigPlanet – and the results are unsurprisingly adorable. The image above shows Wrex, Garrus, Liara, and, of course, Commander Shepard – the problem is,...

Spend a penny

The public toilet is a complex environment, bursting with unwritten rules and accepted traditions. While these standards are not governed by laws, only a brave person dare break them. Men’s Room Mayhem, a brand new PlayStation Vita pee ‘em up from Ripstone and Sawfly Studios, aims to tackle these complex issues in a comical arcade...

Shine so bright

There’s no stopping Deep Silver at the moment. The small publisher currently occupies the top two spots on the UK sales charts, with the likeable Metro: Last Light knocking Dead Island: Riptide into second. However, it wasn’t all good news for the 4A Games shooter, as despite rocketing to the summit, the title failed to outsell...

Scrummier than a seafood salad

It may not have hit the headlines in quite the same way as Velocity Ultra and OMG HD Zombies, but The HD Adventures of Rotating Octopus Character is another PlayStation Minis remake that you should be keeping your eye on. The overhauled platformer – which is due out this summer on the PlayStation Vita – is the...

Going potty

Men’s Room Mayhem is practically bursting to occupy a spot on your PlayStation Vita, but it’s going to have to cross its legs until 21st May in North America and 22nd May in Europe. You’ll need to spend a shade more than a penny in order to relieve yourself, but not much – the pee ‘em up will cost you $1.99/£1.99, with...

Expected functionality

Sony has a habit of teasing nifty features before going back on its word – but it looks like it wasn't telling porkies when it revealed that PlayStation Vita remote play would be compatible with virtually every PlayStation 4 game. An update to the impending platform’s official website brings the promising news, as it...

Sony moves release date forwards

Launching alongside Grand Theft Auto V was never going to do Killzone: Mercenary any favours – and Sony has acknowledged that by moving the PlayStation Vita exclusive’s release date forwards. The title will now deploy on 4th September in Europe and 10th September in North America. It makes a change for Europe...

Deadlocked and loaded

It looks like the complications surrounding the PlayStation Vita version of Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault have finally come to a conclusion, as Insomniac Games has confirmed that the handheld version of the title will be available from 21st May in North America and 22nd May in Europe. Assuming that you purchased the...

Raise the roof

It’s starting to seem like our criticism of the PlayStation Vita may have been a touch premature. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe’s senior business development manager Shahid Kamal Ahmad recently teased an “amazing” title for the format, and now Game Informer executive editor Andrew Reiner has

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
