News Peggle 2's Popping onto PS4 This October
About time
Popular puzzler pop-'em-up Peggle 2 will be partaking in some PlayStation 4 partying this October, the game's official Twitter account has revealed.

News Phew, Dragon Age: Inquisition's Multiplayer Will Not Affect the Single Player Story
Thank the Maker
We remember the negative commotion that surrounded Mass Effect 3's co-op mode all too well, and so we were a little worried about whether or not Dragon Age: Inquisition's newly announced multiplayer would have any effect on the single player story, if only so we didn't have to wade through countless hate-filled forum posts...
News Here's Dragon Age: Inquisition's Inevitable Co-Op Trailer
One for all
Any fan of Dragon Age: Origin's deadly rogue Leliana will no doubt be excited to hear her ask for your help in Dragon Age: Inquisition's freshly announced co-op mode, so we suppose that's a pretty effective way to begin this multiplayer focused trailer. It's not a long one, only clocking in at about a minute and a half, but we do get a...
News PewDiePie Kickflips PS3 Classic Skate 3 Back to Life
Videos inspire reprint four years on
PewDiePie: hilarious and harmless, or scourge of the gaming community? Adored by his legions of subscribers and seemingly hated by everyone else, the Swedish YouTube star always seems to split opinion. But whatever your take on the gurning personality, it's impossible to deny his influence. The success of the...
Mass effective
It's something that's been in the rumour mill for some time now, but it's finally been confirmed that upcoming fantasy RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition is getting its very own co-op mode that's separate from the gigantic single player story. The news comes from IGN, which got to talk to developer BioWare about the game's intriguing...
Gamescom 2014 BioWare Reckons You'll Be Able to Spend Over 200 Hours in Dragon Age: Inquisition
Dragon Age: Extinction
We hope that there are enough dragons roaming the wilderness in Dragon Age: Inquisition, because we think that you'll be killing plenty of them if you're to spend over 200 hours with the upcoming RPG. Speaking with IGN, producer Cameron Lee reckons that "a completist playthrough takes more than 200 hours," which no doubt...
Gamescom 2014 Dragon Age: Inquisition Looks Remarkably Pretty in These New Trailers
Nobody expects the Dragon Age: Inquisition
EA started its fairly lousy Gamescom conference this morning with a lengthy demo of incoming RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition. Some fairly juicy details were also dropped, including the news that the game features nine classes, with more than 20 specialisations, as well as over 200 weapons and spells, and all...

If you haven't already seen part one, we'd suggest giving it a peek by clicking...
News Have a Peek at Dragon Age: Inquisition's 16 Minute Private E3 Gameplay Demo
Hot stuff
Upcoming PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition had a rather tame showing at EA's E3 press conference last month. Alongside cringe inducing dialogue from the on-stage GM Aaryn Flynn, the game didn't get the big gameplay blowout that many expected, probably due to the publisher's strict time table. Thankfully, the...

Company doesn't want to take the Call of Duty route
When Battlefield 4 went toe-to-toe with Call of Duty: Ghosts late last year, EA's offering was found somewhat wanting. While the game's multiplayer mode was a revelation — with "emergent" gameplay and rapidly changing arenas — the title was blighted by issues which prevented players from...
E3 2014 You Can Access the Battlefield Hardline Beta on PS4 Right Now
Confirmed 1080p and 60fps on PS4
Battlefield Hardline may have leaked before E3, but that didn't stop EA from closing out its press conference with the spin-off shooter.

News Battlefield Hardline Cleans Up the Streets on PS3 and PS4 This October
Welcome to the jungle
EA really needs to sort out these leaks. As it stands, Battlefield Hardline, presumably one of its big E3 surprises, has all but been revealed before the event has even started. First it was a leaked logo, and then an internal trailer, and now the official release da

News EA CEO Thinks the PS4 Will Face Some 'Fairly Stiff Competition'
EAsy does it
The PlayStation 4 has sold phenomenally well, this much we know – but recently appointed EA CEO Andrew Wilson isn't certain that the console's continued dominance is a sure thing. Speaking at the Credit Suisse 2013 Technology Conference, Wilson noted that the living room is flooded with competitors. "Our market is evolving at a very,...

News Current Sales of Assassin's Creed IV and Battlefield 4 Are Dead in the Water
Next-gen may not be to blame
It should come as no surprise that the current-gen versions of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and Battlefield 4 are not selling as well as previous entries. After all, who wants to buy a game on an ageing console when they can wait a few weeks for the superior next-gen version? But a recent report from MCV reveals that...

News EA's Peter Moore: We've Made Plenty of Mistakes, But We Will Do Better
Executive promises improvements at under fire publisher
EA’s not exactly having the best of times – the recent departure of CEO John Riccitiello is evidence of that. But while the publisher’s managed to badly bungle the launch of SimCity and produce some below-par games, we can probably all agree that it doesn’t deserve the ‘Worst Company...

News Dead Space: Extraction Lies in Wait on Dead Space 2 Blu-Ray
Special edition comes with extra game
The Wii's Dead Space: Extraction was an excellent but sadly overlooked sci-fi shooter that deserved a bigger audience and a better home. How pleasing, then, that it's on the way to PlayStation 3 owners via the special edition of Dead Space 2. Playable with Move – although also compatible with Dualshock 3 –...
