E3 2015 Ready at Dawn Ditching PS4 for Oculus Rift Exclusive
Moving on
Remember that recent Ready at Dawn interview where the Californian company referenced an unannounced piece of hardware? We suspect that it was talking about the Oculus Rift, as it's currently working on an exclusive for the device. The Order: 1886 developer was listed alongside PlayStation alumni Insomniac Games during the virtual reality...
E3 2015 Scratch Metal Gear Rising 2 Off Your Wishlist
Wait for your Revengeance
Metal Gear Rising 2 won't be shown at this year's E3, sadly. Platinum Games – who already appears to have its work cut out with the exciting Transformers: Devastation – was linked with a spin-off sequel earlier in the year, but that was before all of this Konami craziness kicked off. Senior producer Ken-Ichiro Imaizumi...
E3 2015 Loading Human Shoots for the Stars on Project Morpheus
Ready player one
And so it begins: the Project Morpheus software announcements are starting to arrive. We've heard word of two separate titles that will be on display at Sony's booth, though we're sworn to secrecy for the moment. Loading Human, it appears, we can talk about. The high-concept trailer embedded below should give you the general gist...
Rumour Birdie, Cammy Are Street Fighter V's New Challengers
Ready, fight
Two new challengers have entered the Street Fighter V ring: Birdie and Cammy. Well, that's according to a translation of German magazine Computer Bild, which referenced both of the new brawlers in an article on the upcoming PlayStation 4 console exclusive. The former fighter is an interesting addition, as he was a character in the...
Talking Point What Are Your Hopes and Fears for PS4, Vita at E3 2015?
Last minute nerves
Reminder: E3 2015 is upon us. If the special homepage wasn't already a good enough giveaway – nifty, eh? – then this editor's apocalyptic stress levels are a sure sign. As gaming fans, the reason that we all love the Los Angeles convention is because it allows us to dream and despair. There are the highs, like Jack Tretton...

E3 2015 Bethesda Bizarrely Hints at Dishonored 2 on Accidental Stream
Corvo, blimey
Alright, alright – this is getting ridiculous now. We can totally understand why some publishers want to announce their games early, and we can see how screenshots may get into public hands prematurely – but accidentally broadcasting your press conference rehearsal to Twitch? This Bethesda balls-up will go down as one of the...
E3 2015 Platinum Games Is the Robot in Disguise Behind Transformers: Devastation
Dare to believe in a PS4, PS3 release

Rock on
We're running out of time, folks. In mere hours Push Square's offices will have been thrown into pure madness. This year's E3 is looking to be especially busy, with developers increasingly keen on releasing snippets of news earlier than they're supposed to. Thanks a lot, guys. Seriously, though, E3 is keeping us pretty busy right now. We're...

E3 2015 Square Enix Has At Least Six Secrets to Share
But what could they be?
Stop press! Square Enix has hinted that it has secrets to share during its E3 2015 press conference next week. The publisher teased the tidbit during a borderline obnoxious trailer, which bleeps out at least six different reveals. There's no real hint as to what any of the censored items could pertain to, so you'll have to...
E3 2015 Transformers: Devastation Is the Childhood Title of Your Dreams
More than meets the eye
Save for High Moon Studios' slick Cybertron titles, the Transformers brand has been subject to some pretty dire tie-ins. Much like Rodimus Prime, though, Activision is looking to rise again, with the gob-stoppingly awesome Transformers: Devastation. Our friends over at Pure Xbox

E3 2015 PS4's ABZÛ Is Journey Set Under the Sea
Aquanaut's holiday
Being a bit of a contrarian, this author has always enjoyed deep-sea diving games. Aquanaut's Holiday is a particular favourite here at Push Square, but this scribe is also partial to the odd session of Endless Ocean on a certain other system. If it wasn't for its annoying name, then, ABZÛ would be right at the top of your humble...
E3 2015 YouTube Gaming Makes Twitch, Er, Twitch
Google reveals new streaming initiative
Twitch may be trying to laugh off YouTube Gaming's big announcement today, but there will be a lot of businessmen with furrowed brows right now.

Soapbox Why So Many E3 2015 Announcements Are Being Spoiled
Sammy Barker likes surprises, but reckons early reveals make sense
I never tentatively tore the corners of my Christmas presents in order to get a sneaky first look inside. I had friends who claimed to know the contents of all of the gifts nestling beneath their fake fir trees, but I always preferred to wait. In fact, as I got older I tended to...
E3 2015 Bring Popcorn for Metal Gear Solid V's Six Minute Trailer
Epic clip will debut on Monday
Hideo Kojima may have been pushed out of the limelight of late, but Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will still be getting its customary six minute clip next week.

E3 2015 Death Isn't the End in PS4's Life Goes On
Prepare to die
Dying in video games is never a good thing, right? Well, that's typically the case, but Life Goes On: Done to Death from Infinite Monkeys Entertainment [Terrible name – Ed] subverts a few rules. The idea in this morbid PlayStation 4 release is that you must use your character's dead body in order to overcome various trials and...
E3 2015 Wattam Is PS4's Wackiest Game by a Mile
WTF?!
Y'know when indie developers describe their games as outlandish, but beneath the surface they're fairly straightforward? Well, that's not the case with Wattam, which is downright barmy. The product of Katamari Damacy creator Keita Takahashi's warped imagination, this game sees you linking the arms of all sorts of weird and wonderful creatures...
E3 2015 PS4 Horror SOMA Is Coming for You
