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 Dark Souls III Will Make You Cry in 2016
Please, punish us
As expected, Dark Souls III has been officially announced. The breaking news comes courtesy of - ahem - the Xbox E3 presser, though don't worry, it's not an Xbox exclusive and we'll still be able to get our puny little arses whipped just as badly as our Xbox brethren. There's no solid release date right now, but the teaser did...

Weirdness This Project Morpheus Concept Will Make You Look Like an Idiot
The future
We're excited for Project Morpheus, but let's be totally honest here – none of us are going to look cool using the headset. Of course, some games will be sillier than others – and a tech demo from Impulse Gear may just take the biscuit. The sci-fi shooter, a focus of Wired's article on Sony's fledgling virtual reality headset, takes...
Reaction The Remaining E3 Pressers Will Need to Be Bloody Good to Better Bethesda
Nailed it
DOOM, Dishonored 2, and Fallout 4. Only a handful of games were relevant to PlayStation at Bethesda's E3 2015 press conference, and this minimal focus was perhaps key to the publisher's incredibly successful showing. By concentrating almost purely on its biggest releases, the company crafted a presser that was devoid of filler, and...

E3 2015 Fallout 4 PS4 Screenshots Bring the Boom
Drop the bomb
Bethesda dropped a veritable wealth of Fallout 4 gameplay footage overnight, but if you've absorbed every second of that several times over – well, perhaps you may be willing to stare at some stills.

E3 2015 Dishonored 2 PS4 Will Take You to Karnaca
Step aside Dunwall
Dishonored 2 was announced for the PlayStation 4 during Bethesda's media briefing last night – much, we suspect, to the surprise of no one.

E3 2015 DOOM PS4 Deals Death to Demons in Spring 2016
Middle finger from Mars
Have we all recovered from Bethesda's laser-focused presser yet? Despite making its E3 2015 media briefing debut, the Zenimax-owned organisation knocked it out of the park with its presentation last night – and then proceeded to stamp awesome all over our faces. Fallout 4 may have been the highlight, but credit must go to...

E3 2015 DOOM Multiplayer Goes Old-School on PS4
Arena action
How do you reboot a franchise like DOOM? Well, you make it familiar – but amplify everything so it feels fresh again. The single player footage for id Software's first-person reboot literally left this author slack-jawed earlier today – and the multiplayer ain't looking half bad either. While the developer was a little less...

Wait for your Revengeance
Metal Gear Rising 2 won't be shown at this year's E3, sadly.

Aquanaut's holiday
Being a bit of a contrarian, this author has always enjoyed deep-sea diving games.
