TGS 2015 Dragon Quest Builders Crafts a PS4 Gameplay Clip
Minecraft made afresh
Clones can be pretty darn shameless, but Dragon Quest Builders is not your ordinary rip-off – primarily because it actually looks better than Mojang's $2 billion mega brand, Minecraft. Of course, it's utterly bereft of originality – it's a copycat, after all – but what it lacks in innovation it more than makes up for in...
News Destiny: The Taken King Is PlayStation's Most Downloaded Day One Game Ever
Hail to the king
Judging purely by the sheer amount of spite Destiny draws from internet users on a daily basis, you'd think that it's a universally hated game. Almost anything related to Bungie's shooter gets picked apart by naysayers all the time - but the simple fact is that Destiny is here to stay, as evidenced by the day one download figures of...
TGS 2015 Samurai Warriors 4 Empires Conquers Europe and North America in Early 2016
Coming to PS4, PS3, and Vita
Hear that sound? It's Koei Tecmo marching yet another Warriors game westward, much to the appreciation of European and North American fans. Coinciding with its presence at the Tokyo Game Show, the publisher has revealed that Samurai Warriors 4 Empires is invading overseas territories in early 2016. Now before everyone...
TGS 2015 Persona 5's PS4, PS3 Gameplay Trailer Is Downright Incredible
But remember, Summer 2016
You know what's going to make the fact that Persona 5 has been delayed into Summer 2016 even harder to swallow? Its superb Tokyo Game Show trailer. Showcasing more of the role-playing title than ever before, the newest video is brilliant to say the least. Everything from cutscenes to chunks of gameplay are on display,...
TGS 2015 Persona 5 Delayed to Summer 2016 on PS4, PS3
We told you so
Yep, Persona 5's been delayed into 2016 on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3. The revised launch date has been revealed as part of a whole new trailer that isn't readily available as an Internet video just yet – but we'll post a story on it as soon as possible. [Update: You can find the full trailer through here] We hate to say...
TGS 2015 Metal Gear Online Looks Brilliant and Bonkers
Once more into the fray
We hope that you weren't planning on removing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain from your PlayStation 4 any time soon, as even if you've somehow managed to finish the story, the equally exciting Metal Gear Online is right around the corner. Set to release from 6th October, publisher Konami is showing off the competitive...
TGS 2015 Finally, Here's Some Tales of Zestiria PS4 Gameplay
We've been expecting you
With so much focus being placed firmly upon the blockbuster holiday releases of 2015, it's easy to forget about some of the less popular titles that are releasing in the next few months. Tales of Zestiria is perhaps one such game, but judging from its first ever PlayStation 4 gameplay trailer, it certainly shouldn't be...
TGS 2015 Star Ocean 5 Looks Pretty Slick in Its First Ever PS4 Gameplay Demo
Reach for the stars
Tokyo Game Show 2015 has officially opened its doors today, so we're starting to see tons of gameplay videos making their way onto the 'net. This time, we've got some Star Ocean 5: Integrity and Faithlessness footage courtesy of 4Gamer, and it's looking pretty promising. Sporting a typically action packed battle system and some...
News FIFA 16's Commercial Features Some Fancy Footwork
Play beautiful
You may want to turn your speakers down for this FIFA 16 commercial as the operatic theme is a little, shall we say, noisy. Still, this is a pretty nifty trailer featuring a vast array of famous faces, from Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero right the way through to Kobe Bryant. United States forward Alex Morgan also puts in an appearance...
News Minecraft: Story Mode Begins Its Quest on PS4, PS3 from 13th October
Block buster

Telltale Games has confirmed on the PlayStation Blog that the first episode, The Order of the Stone, will launch on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 from...
News Japanese Sales Charts: PS4 Numbers Drop Like a Rock Just Two Weeks After Metal Gear Solid V
Falling without style
Well, there goes that. At this point, it's abundantly clear that the PlayStation 4 is currently incapable of maintaining any kind of momentum in its homeland, as Sony's latest console saw its sales plummet by around 35,000 units. The new-gen machine saw a boost in popularity following the launch of Metal Gear Solid V: The...
TGS 2015 Here's Your First Bloody Chunk of Attack on Titan PS4 Gameplay
Just about what you'd expect
Koei Tecmo's upcoming Attack on Titan game looks true to the source material, if its first trailer is anything to go by. The title didn't show its hulking face at Sony's pre-Tokyo Game Show press conference, but we assume that you'll be seeing a lot more of it in the coming months anyway. That said, there's not a...
Reaction PlayStation's TGS 2015 Presser Picks Up from Sony's Stellar E3
TGSuccess
With each PlayStation press conference, these reaction articles are getting harder to write. There was a time when we could strongly criticise Sony's stage shows; bad pacing, notable absentees, and a general lack of PlayStation Vita have all been common criticisms over the years. But with the manufacturer cleaning up its act and the...
Store Update 15th September 2015 (North America)
The last Guardian
Destiny: The Taken King is the main attraction on the North American PlayStation Store this week, as evidenced by the ostentatious banner image on the PlayStation Blog post. Amplified advertising aside, PES 2016: Pro Evolution Soccer and NHL 16 are both also highlights, while the likes of Flame Over and
TGS 2015 Persona 5 Teaser Website Provides New Hope
Patience is a virtue
Persona 5's absence from Sony's pre-Tokyo Game Show press conference earlier today was bizarre, but there's still hope for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 sequel yet. In addition to a stage show which is scheduled to take place on 19th September, eagle-eyed NeoGAF users have unearthed a 'Coming Soon' teaser website for the...
Store Update 15th September 2015 (Europe)
Return of the king
We really must stop introducing these Store Update posts with clichés like "it's a big week on the PlayStation Store" – but this tends to be a universal truth at the minute. Destiny: The Taken King is obviously the major attraction this time, but a mention must go to PES 2016: Pro Evolution Soccer, too. What's caught your eye?...
Round Up What Did Sony Announce for PS4, PS3, Vita During Its Pre-TGS Presser?
All of the news
Two press conferences down, two home runs. Sony's pre-Tokyo Game Show media briefing was never going to better its fantastical E3 2015 offering, but with decent pacing and a lot of content, it was another strong showing from the Japanese giant. Sure, the presser lacked a knock-out finish – the ten or so minutes spent talking about...
TGS 2015 Dragon Quest Builders Constructs a Yellow Brick Path to PS4, PS3, Vita
Mine and craft in Square Enix's spin-off
Japan's biggest game of 2016 may be one that you least expect, as Dragon Quest Builders is shaping up to be every inch the commercial smash. Square Enix's block breaking role-playing release promises to give Minecraft's occasionally mindless brick busting a bit of structure – while also augmenting the...
TGS 2015 Star Ocean 5 Sails to Japanese Stores Early Next Year
Western release date can't be too far behind
We haven't seen all that much of Star Ocean 5: Integrity and Faithlessness, but we have known for a while that it's releasing in 2016. Earlier today during Sony's Tokyo Game Show press conference, Square Enix revealed that the role-playing game is launching on the 25th February in Japan, and showcased new...
Talking Point What Did You Think of Sony's Pre-TGS Press Conference?
The talk of Tokyo
Sony's just closed the curtain on its pre-Tokyo Game Show press conference, which was breathless at points. The platform holder revealed a new Bloodborne expansion, as well as Gravity Rush 2 for the PlayStation 4. Third-parties were also out in force, with SEGA announcing two new Yakuza titles, while Bandai Namco rolled out fresh...

Streaming straight from Japan
And we're back. Sony's presser no-show at Gamescom 2015 hit us harder than we expected, so we've been itching for a media briefing to report on. Fortunately, the platform holder's big pre-Tokyo Game Show event promises plenty, with the likes of Persona 5 and The Last Guardian all certain to put in appearances. The...
Out This Week Destiny: The Taken King, PES 2016, Flame Over
Get reading those Grimoire cards
This may not be the biggest week for new releases ever, but few franchises are more popular than Destiny.

Feature What PS4, PS3, and Vita Reveals Should You Expect During Sony's Pre-TGS Presser?
Predicting PlayStation's big media briefing in Japan
Hooray! After a pretty darn dismal Gamescom 2015 last month, PlayStation press conference season begins in earnest this week. Sony's big pre-Tokyo Game Show media briefing is the first of three events before Christmas, with Paris Games Week and PlayStation Experience both set to follow later in...

Guide What Time Does Destiny: The Taken King Go Live on PS4 and PS3?
Patience and time
There's been a lot of confusion over when Destiny's latest expansion, The Taken King, goes live. Being an online-only release, it's no surprise that Bungie is working to make sure that everything clicks without issue, and with that in mind, it'll be launching the add-on at a specified worldwide time. In other words, don't expect to...

Dead or Alive 5: Last Round's latest batch of downloadable content continues the crossover craze this week, as costumes based on the look of various Falcom characters make their way into the brawler. As always, the fresh outfits are technically free for anyone who bought the game's second season pass. Ahem. Unless you're a...
News UK Sales Charts: Tearaway Unfolded Flops Like Wet Paper
Paper cut
Perhaps the PlayStation Vita's miniscule install base wasn't Tearaway's problem after all, as Sony just can't seem to get this property to connect. PlayStation 4 remix Tearaway Unfolded – which released in the UK last week amid widespread critical acclaim – limped into the UK sales charts, finishing in 33rd position. Considering we're...
News August 2015 NPD: PS4 Scores a Touchdown as Madden NFL 16 Tops
No pads, no helmets
August is well and truly over, and the latest NPD report confirms that the PlayStation 4 was the best selling box in the United States yet again. Sony's console outsold the competition in both the hardware and software departments, with Madden NFL 16 unsurprisingly touching down at the top of the latter list. Despite all of...

Poll Which Destiny Ghost Voice Is the Best?
Dinklage or North?
Any fan of Destiny will know that the game's most recent 2.0 update replaced the original voice of your robotic companion - your Ghost - with an all-new actor. Previously, it was Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage who provided your Ghost with its monotone commentary, but now, video game voice actor Nolan North has been drafted to...
News Despite Rumours, Grand Theft Auto V Story DLC Isn't in the Works Right Now
GTA Online is singular focus
Rumours have been swirling for a while now that Rockstar has been working on some sort of single player expansion for Grand Theft Auto V, but those whispers have been silenced by design director Imran Sarwar, who told IGN that the developer's current focus is purely is on the multiplayer side of things. "Right now our...
We've been spoiled
If you remember back to the first ever live action trailer for Destiny, then you'll probably recall that it was a bit cringe-worthy - but it was still well done and quite entertaining. As expected, the same is true of The Taken King's live action clip, which features the same three Guardians. However, we reckon that both have...
News FIFA 16 Soundtrack Is as Varied as Ever, Featuring Artists We've Never Heard Of
How many do you know?
We're not ashamed to admit that we've discovered many an enjoyable musician thanks to the varied licensed soundtracks that FIFA titles tend to employ. This year's edition, FIFA 16, boasts a total of 42 artists hailing from 15 different countries, and as always, we don't have a clue who most of them are. Still, at least Steve...
News Wow, Destiny: The Taken King's Japanese TV Ad Is Better Than Ours
We will not run or hide
Japan's had a long history of crazy video game marketing, and as such, it's always interesting to see how the latest blockbusters are being advertised in the East. Now, Destiny actually sold reasonably well when it first launched in the Land of the Rising Sun, so it's no surprise that its upcoming expansion, The Taken King,...
Weirdness This Metal Gear Solid V Video Shows You the Height of Tactical Espionage Action
Kept you waiting, huh?
If you pump some funds into Mother Base's research and development sector, you can create increasingly insane ways of dealing with the countless guards that populate Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain's sandbox world.

News Europe Gets a Load of PlayStation Store Discounts, Including The Witcher 3
That time again
What, it's time for another PlayStation Store sale? Already? Well, if you say so. This week's European deals include discounts on PlayStation 4 titles like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, J-Stars Victory VS+, and, er, Godzilla. To be totally honest, we can't spy that many good deals, but at least you can add to your PlayStation 3...
News Expect a Big Persona 5 Blowout at TGS
Release date incoming?
It comes as no surprise whatsoever to learn that Persona 5 is going to have a big presence at this year's Tokyo Game Show, but we're rather excited in any case. The highly anticipated Japanese role-playing game is supposed to be releasing this year in both Japan and North America, but honestly, we're still incredibly sceptical...

News Using Quiet During These Missions Can Corrupt Your Save Data in Metal Gear Solid V
That's just boss
Well this came out of nowhere. According to Konami Europe's official Twitter account, using Quiet as a companion during mission 29 or mission 42 can corrupt your save file. No further details have been given, but we thought that it was best to get the word out. Quiet is one of the few buddies that you can take on missions with you...
News You Could Have Been Playing Destiny 2 Later This Month
Alternate reality
Those documents that have been dug up following a legal battle between Bungie and fired soundtrack composer Marty O'Donnell have turned out to be a bit of a gold mine, eh?

News Dragon's Dogma Online Has Already Reached Some Impressive Milestones in Japan
Hot hot hot
Capcom must be happy with the performance of Dragon's Dogma Online, as it's revealed several impressive figures. The massively multiplayer online role-playing game launched just a few weeks ago, and since then, it's already managed to rack up around 950,000 downloads. On top of that, over 330,000 characters have been created, and,...

What might have been
Following a legal battle between Bungie and fired soundtrack composer Marty O'Donnell, newly uncovered documents state that Destiny's story was "substantially revised" a whole year before the game actually launched. The shooter was originally intended to release in September 2013, but in the month prior, the developer decided to...
News UK Sales Charts: Metal Gear Solid V Takes a Chopper to the Top
72% of sales were on PS4
Who didn't see this one coming? Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain has tiptoed straight into number one here in the UK following its launch on the 1st September. Equally unsurprising is that 72 per cent of the stealth-'em-up's sales were on the PlayStation 4. However, Kojima's latest didn't sell quite well enough to beat...
Soapbox Metal Gear Solid V Has the Best Sandbox Mission Design I've Seen in a Game
Bossing it
I've finally had a chance to really sink my teeth into Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain this weekend, and I've already came to one pretty dramatic conclusion: it has the best open mission design that I've experienced in a game. A pretty bold statement, I'm sure you'll agree, but it's one that I'm quite confident in - and not just...

Round Up Push Square's August 2015 Reviews
Racing towards the storm
August was a busy month for everyone here at Push Square, as we pumped out a whopping 39 reviews - which is surely some sort of record.

News Can't Sign in to Destiny? That's Because It's Down for 6 Hours of Maintenance
Oof
We hope that you weren't planning on jumping straight into Destiny when you get home from work or school today, because Bungie's taken the servers down for a hefty dose of scheduled maintenance. At the point of publishing this article, the downtime is already under way, beginning at 16:00PM BST - that's 08:00AM PDT and 11:00AM EDT for you...
News Schwing! Swords are Coming to Destiny as Usable Weapons
Is this Warframe?
Right, so they've been basically confirmed for a while, but during yesterday's Destiny livestream, Bungie finally showed off some swords.

News Free PS3 Fighter SoulCalibur: Lost Swords to Retire Later This Year
In the sea you go
SoulCalibur: Lost Swords is the greatest pile of garbage that we've had the displeasure of playing in quite some time, and we get through some trash here at Push Square Towers. The single player fighter was released as part of Bandai Namco's free-to-play push last year, and epitomised everything that's bad about the model. Good...
News Gran Turismo 6 Sales Linger at the Back of the Pack
Slow coach
You could argue that Sony supported the PlayStation 3 too long. Sony Santa Monica and Naughty Dog both released big games for the console during the year of the PlayStation 4's release, and the likes of Gran Turismo 6 deployed after the new-gen device. Unsurprisingly, that decision had a negative impact on the latter's sales, as ongoing...

Extra reputation and better loot
We've lost count of how many ways that The Taken King is supposedly improving Destiny, so we'll just go ahead and throw this one onto the pile that seems to be growing by the day as we rapidly approach the expansion's 15th September release date. Confirmed on Twitter by the title's executive producer, Mark...

"My energy comes from the players"
The below video may seem like a goodbye, but Hideo Kojima is clearly confident in what he's accomplished with Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

Game of the Month What Were the Best PlayStation Games of August 2015?
Dumb teenagers, space battles, pirates, and raptures
Time certainly flies, as evidenced by the fact that it's somehow September. Yeah, we don't understand it either, but we suppose that we have to go ahead and announce August's Game of the Month anyway. Leading steadily into the holiday rush that's about to hit Push Square Towers like a freight...

News There's a Silent Hills Easter Egg in Metal Gear Solid 5
But of course
Once upon a time, before Konami imploded, Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima was working on Silent Hills in addition to The Phantom Pain. It makes sense, then, that there would be some references to the survival horror, and its PlayStation 4 playable teaser, in the open world espionage escapade. And our friend Arekkz Gaming has...
News Dragon's Dogma Online Proves to Be Hot Stuff in Japan at Launch
Forged in flame
Dragon's Dogma Online seems to have had a promising start in Japan, as it was reportedly downloaded over 700,000 times during its first day on the market. Impressive numbers for sure, but there are a few factors that we have to take into account before declaring it the next big thing in the Land of the Rising Sun. For starters,...

A story? Impossible
Destiny: The Taken King's got a launch trailer, and it's actually pretty good.

The Taken King sounds like it's going to right a lot of Destiny's wrongs, but fans of the franchise's Raids may be disappointed to learn that you'll have to wait for the title's new mega mission, King's Fall. Speaking with IGN at PAX Prime, director Luke Smith confirmed that there'll be a little wait before the content...
