E3 2015 Disney Infinity 3.0 Dares You to Stand Against the Empire
Exclusive PS4 Boba Fett figure, too
With the actual empire that Disney is building with Marvel, it's no surprise it took advantage of that with the latest instalment in its Infinity franchise. Now, as the owners of Star Wars, it was a no-brainer that Disney Infinity 3.0 would take advantage of that and tackle all things Star Wars. Sony showed off...
E3 2015 Star Wars Battlefront Co-Op Mode Blasts into View
Never tell me the odds
DICE has already knocked it out of the park with its multiplayer trailer for Star Wars: Battlefront, but with Sony's E3 conference, now we've gotten a short look at what to expect from the co-op mode as well. The trailer shows two Rebel players in a survival mode fending off waves of Stormtroopers and Shocktroopers with the...
E3 2015 Batman: Arkham Knight Trailer Showcases Exclusive DLC
What do you fear?
Batman: Arkham Knight is right around the corner, but that hasn't stopped Sony from showing more of this conclusion to the trilogy at its E3 2015 conference. The trailer begins with Joker's body being cremated into ashes, but then the scene shifts to a small diner in the streets of Gotham, where we strangely get a first-person...
E3 2015 The Last Guardian Ascends from Its Slumber with Gameplay Trailer
Kept us waiting, huh?
The Last Guardian, a victim of being seemingly canceled numerous times as it struggled through development hell for several years, is no longer a gem that would never see the light of day. It is finally here, and it is coming to the PlayStation 4 in 2016. The gameplay is all too familiar, but we can tell this title is on...
E3 2015 Assassin's Creed Syndicate Gameplay Shows The Thrill of The Chase
That's one way to travel
When we saw Assassin's Creed Syndicate take center stage for Ubisoft's E3 2015 conference, we thought its cinematic trailer was a bloody good show, but we asked ourselves, "Where's the gameplay?" Well, it seems Ubisoft sneakily left that for the more observant to find on its YouTube channel with a succinct four minute video...
E3 2015 Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands Delves into the Drug Cartel
Busted
Just when you thought you couldn't get enough open world third-person shooters with games like Tom Clancy's The Division from Ubisoft, the French publisher injected yet another one into its conference right before it ended with Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands. Admittedly, this is quite an interesting premise for the squad-based shooter...
E3 2015 Loss and Treachery Abound In The Division Trailer and Gameplay
Stabbed in the back
Tom Clancy's The Division feels like it has been in development for quite some time, but Ubisoft has revealed it will release March 8, 2016 on the PlayStation 4, and this relieving announcement has brought two trailers in tow. The first shows the scope of the game engine's power in a cinematic nature with narration that...
E3 2015 Mad Max Trailer Guarantees More Insanity with Its Main Antagonist
What a lovely day
Mad Max has already impressed us with its massive open world where you can ride around in a customized car wreaking havoc in utterly crazy vehicular battles. But that's not all, since there's melee-focused combat, RPG elements in regard to upgrading equipment and armor, and all sorts of things you can do in the depraved wasteland...
E3 2015 Death's Gambit Swings Its Scythe At The PS4
Mortal no more
It's inevitable that a deluge of indie games will come flowing from Sony later today due to its adamant, commendable partnership to put small developers in the spotlight, so it's no surprise that the publishing giant welcomes yet another indie team into its fold by bringing White Rabbit's game called Death's Gambit to the PlayStation...
E3 2015 Hell Hath No Fury Like a DOOM Gameplay Reveal Trailer
Demon gore galore
It's no question that one of Bethesda's most anticipated titles for E3 2015 is the long-awaited, next installment in the DOOM franchise, so, naturally, it kicked off its conference with a bang by opening the gates of Hell with an impressive trailer showing just how much fun slaughtering demons will be on the PlayStation 4 in spring...
Review Sketchcross (PlayStation Vita)
Sketchy
Nonograms are an eclectic sort of puzzle. Mostly being a spin on sudoku with a hint of crosswords, the objective is to essentially create pixel art of animals, people, shapes, or anything that you can think of by filling in specific squares of a grid. You accomplish this by logically analysing numbers that correspond with rows and columns,...
Review Ether One (PlayStation 4)
Never forget
Dementia is a horrifying illness that addles the minds of those afflicted by it. Weakened reasoning and unexpected changes in personality are two of its effects, but what causes the most sorrow to the victim and especially their loved ones is the gradual loss of memories. Forgetting where you've lived, who your friends are, or what you...
News Shuhei Yoshida Confirms Bloodborne Expansion DLC Is in the Works
Praise the moon
Bloodborne is a good game. A really, really good game, as we're sure that you've heard from the constant coverage that we gave the masterful hit a couple of months ago. While the release has a breadth of meaningful content to explore, even with massive areas you may miss during your first playthrough, many a Hunter have wondered...
Interview The Man Behind the Music - Jason Graves
We talk extensively to one of PlayStation's most prolific composers

Review We Are Doomed (PlayStation 4)
Kaleidoscope of colour
If you were to take Geometry Wars and TxK and produce a hybrid of them, you would most certainly end up with We Are Doomed. This twin-stick arcade shooter is another classic example of the 'easy to learn, hard to master' gameplay philosophy, and it's accompanied by explosive graphics, techno music, and a swarm of simplified...
Feature What Do You Mean You've Never Played... Transformers: War for Cybertron?
Cullen your name
Video games are quite the unpredictable bunch. Dark horses like Batman: Arkham Asylum and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor will come out of nowhere as surprising Game of the Year contenders, while shocking letdowns such as Assassin's Creed Unity and The Order: 1886 will leave gamers pondering where their promise and potential went...
Review Bastion (PlayStation 4)
Before Red, there was the Kid
It's utterly amazing how much the indie game scene has changed since 2011. Sony has started to heavily promote teensy developers at major industry conferences, Valve's Steam Greenlight has allowed thousands to publish games for players to test before they're even finished, and Kickstarter has made it possible for...
Review Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor - The Bright Lord (PlayStation 4)
Back for Mor(e)dor
Over the several months since its release, minor pieces of DLC have been released for Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, but the prized package that fans have been clamouring for is The Bright Lord. This short campaign story puts you in the armoured boots of the legendary Celebrimbor: the Elf wraith that Talion is bound to throughout...

Caddick addict
Here at Push Square Towers, we're constantly blithering on about the most famous game developers and designers, but there's always been a hole in our coverage: the players. We're talking about the fans – the people that love the brand as much as we do. Ultimately, we're referring to folk just like you. In this new series, we'll be...
News Ubisoft Admits Difficulties Developing Assassin's Creed Unity for the PS4
Nothing's a waste if you learn from it

It's no secret that the highly anticipated title was a major disappointment for almost everyone due to its myriad glitches and flaws that mired an otherwise beautiful game with ambitious design changes, as we pointed out in our review...
News Reptile Roughhouses His Way into Mortal Kombat X
Sssplendid
Although the illustrious Ed Boon previously teased that new fighters for Mortal Kombat X would be revealed on 29th January, it seems that NetherRealm Studios couldn't wait, as an exclusive IGN video has confirmed that Reptile will be joining the roster. After a hilarious, short spat between Kung Lao and his scaly adversary, we get a look...
Review Shake Spears! (PlayStation Vita)
Meh-dieval
Free-to-play. Whenever these three words are uttered, it's hard to stifle the shudder that follows when you begin to think about microtransactions, "pay-to-win", and the other deceitful, annoying practices often associated with the whole model. There are the rare few with compelling gameplay and fair microtransactions such as Warframe,...
News Starbreeze Studios Sells Off Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons to 505 Games
A new chapter
Ask anyone who has played Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and they'll tell you that it's a fascinating adventure that culminates with an emotional punch to the gut. Future sequels were hardly implied by this standalone indie title, however, but developer Starbreeze Studios has announced that it has handed the property over to publisher...
Review Rock Boshers DX: Director's Cut (PlayStation 4)
God save the Queen
It's common for people to throw around the word "retro" when it comes to any video games that are characterised by pixelated graphics, chiptune music, arcade gameplay, and the like. Most of these would never actually run on older consoles since they are more complex and modern in other areas, but something like Shovel Knight is...
