E3 2015 Godzilla on PS4 Rampages Through E3 With a Brand New Gameplay Trailer
King of the monsters
What kind joke would E3 be without PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 smash-'em-up Godzilla storming the Los Angeles event? In the game's newest, suitably bombastic trailer, we see the overgrown lizard and all of his monster pals kick the snot out of each other, wrecking cities as they go.

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...

DLC Review Golden Frieza Shines Bright in Dragon Ball XenoVerse's Final DLC Pack
Has the season pass been worth it?
It's been a log journey, but Dragon Ball XenoVerse's days of downloadable content are over. The final slice of DLC, which is free to season pass owners, is the Resurrection of F Pack. As its name suggests, the included content is based on the Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection of F movie, so if you're busy getting hyped...
News Here's Your Free Witcher 3 PS4 DLC For This Week
Gwent for the masses
Ah, good old gwent. When Geralt isn't wandering around the wilderness cutting monsters to ribbons, you can usually find him challenging some hapless merchant to a game of cards. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's gwent is a rather addictive optional minigame, and it even features its own set of quests - some of which are impressively...

News Wait a Minute, The Witcher 3 Doesn't Have a Level Cap?
Kills for skills
A point that we've made countless times now: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a massive game. So massive, in fact, that Geralt's maximum level has been the point of much debate, purely because next to no one's managed to find and finish every available quest in the release. Indeed, quests are your main source of experience points in the...

Two more packs to fill your inventory with
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is getting two more pieces of free downloadable content this week, although they don't appear to be all that exciting.

Eye of the tiger
Tekken 7's adding another animal to the character roster, kind of. This time, there's a tiger entering the fray, but there is a catch in that it's actually part of newcomer Kazumi Mishima's moveset. Kazumi's Heihachi's wife, and Kazuya's mother, adding yet more fuel to the already dysfunctional family's fire. While her fighting...
News These Witcher 3 Glitches are Bloody Horrific
Why the long face?
We've seen some pretty dumb glitches during our time with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, but nothing particularly nefarious. The same can't be said for often hilarious YouTube user Tyrannicon, however, who's put together a short video of non-playable characters and their long, melted faces. Complete with eerie music and dark, stormy...

News CD Projekt Red Hoping to Find The Witcher 3 PS4 Framerate and Font Size Fix
New patch in production
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's text is so tiny that you may need to push your nose right up against your television screen in order to read it.

News The DualShock 4's Touchpad Is Your Pal in The Witcher 3 on PS4
Geralt's best friend
Ever since the PlayStation 4's announcement, the touchpad on the DualShock 4 has seemed like a bit of a gimmick. It's been employed, mostly, as a replacement for the select button since launch, but The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has a few more uses for the responsive rectangle that you may not be aware of. Tapping it will, obviously,...

Soapbox The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's Physical Package Puts All Other Games to Shame
Above and beyond
I'm not overly thrilled at the fact that my age is beginning to increase against my will, but I am thankful that I'm old enough to appreciate physical media.

News Project CARS' Conclusion to This Le Mans Race Is Unexpected
On cloud nine
To be clear: Project CARS is not broken like many of the PlayStation 4 titles from last year. It is, however, in need of patching, as it has a handful of minor issues that start to add up. This clip posted to YouTube may well be the worst of them, though, as the unlucky player on the receiving end encountered it when 30 minutes away...

Mechanical muscle man returns
A character who's featured in every Tekken title to date, Jack's back in Tekken 7.

He looks much the same as we remember...
News The Witcher 3's Latest and Possibly Last Trailer Is a Bit of a Masterpiece
By the light of the moon
We rag on CG trailers as much as anyone else, but we can usually forgive them when they've been preceded by more gameplay than our brain capacity can handle. As such, we're not too fussed that CD Projekt Red's let The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's new CG trailer loose. Plus, it's pretty bloody good. In truth, the video actually...

Review Project CARS (PlayStation 4)
The last tinker
Project CARS is not your average Sunday drive. Rather than attempt to tune the release to a common ideal, developer Slightly Mad Studios has instead served up a racing simulation that requires real effort if you intend to get the most out of it. Everything about the game – from the controls to the heads-up display – is malleable,...

We already know that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one heck of a big game.

News PS4 Owners Are Clearly Gagging for Gran Turismo
Project CARS dominates on Sony's system
With the utmost respect to Slightly Mad Studios, we reckon that Project CARS has proved a particularly big deal on the PlayStation 4 because there's no sign of Gran Turismo 7 arriving any time soon. Sony helped publisher Bandai Namco market the simulation racer here in the UK, and it was clearly a shrewd move,...
