News DJ's New Music Video Shot Entirely Within Grand Theft Auto V
Beats on the streets
Bosnian DJ Solomun has released a new track called Customer is King, and we quite like it -- but we're not here just to shill for some hot beats. No, we're writing this story because the music video for Solomun's new groove was made entirely within Grand Theft Auto V in collaboration with developer Rockstar. It's pretty...
News Red Dead Redemption 2 Will Include Timed Exclusive PS4 Content
Fanboys at dawn
In potentially controversial news, Red Dead Redemption 2 will include timed exclusive content on the PlayStation 4.

Poll Are You Sold on Red Dead Redemption 2 Yet?
Or do you need full gameplay?
The latest story trailer for Red Dead Redemption 2 dropped earlier this week (you can watch it above), and perhaps surprisingly, it wasn't an instant hit with everyone.

News Red Dead Redemption 2 Looks Wild in New PS4 Screenshots
Go west
There’s been some discussion about Red Dead Redemption 2’s visuals, which have been deemed disappointing by some in the aftermath of this week’s latest trailer. Personally we reckon it’s looking right up there with the very best that the PlayStation 4 has to offer, but we suppose that the muted colour palette and hyper-realistic art...

One of the boys
If you've been keeping up with Red Dead Redemption 2 since its reveal, then you'll likely already know that main playable character Arthur Morgan is a part of Dutch's notorious outlaw gang.

News Red Dead Redemption 2's PS4 Box Art Is Very Striking
Wild
We’ve had some bad PlayStation 4 box art of late, but Red Dead Redemption 2’s official cover doesn’t fall into that category. The striking packaging’s mix of red and yellow complements the blue branding of Sony’s cases well, making for a Blu-ray that’s sure to stand out on store shelves – assuming it can stay in stock long enough...
News Well Looky Here, John Marston's in the New Red Dead Redemption 2 Trailer
Johnny boy
Well, well, well. Who do we have here? Hit pause at the 1:39 mark in the new Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer, and you can see a young John Marston being pushed to his knees. This is followed by a close up of his face as someone holds a knife to it. Nasty. It's also worth pointing out that John's scars seem relatively fresh, so we'll...

News Grand Theft Auto V Has Made More Money Than any Other Entertainment Product Ever
Crime does pay
We already know that Rockstar's mega-hit crime-'em-up, Grand Theft Auto V, is the best selling game of all time, but a new report from MarketWatch reveals that it's comfortably the most profitable game ever. In fact, it's made more cash than any film, album, or other entertainment product in history. Across all p
Rumour Red Dead Redemption 2 Will Feature a Battle Royale Mode
Lots more in new leak
Rockstar has been tight-lipped about its upcoming Western action game Red Dead Redemption 2. Aside from a couple of trailers and a handful of screenshots, few details have been made available.

Cop a feel
Fun fact: did you know that L.A. Noire actually released closer to the 1940s than to 2017? If you used your detective skills to deduce that this is a lie, then Team Bondi’s noir classic could be your type of game. Newly remastered by Rockstar, the detective thriller is as confounding and cool as it was back in 2011, with a new lick of...
News L.A. Noire Remaster Does Away with Its Often Confusing Trust, Doubt, Lie System
Chill out, Cole
There's a new trailer out for L.A. Noire's remaster, and it reveals a rather important change to one of the game's core gameplay systems. And yes, we know this is a Switch-specific video, but we don't see why this alteration would't be implemented in the PlayStation 4 version as well. Okay, so in the original L.A. Noire, you...
News Grand Theft Auto V Is Officially the Best Selling Game Ever
Finally beats out Wii Sports
At the rate that Grand Theft Auto V still sells, this news was inevitable.

Poll What Did You Think of the Red Dead Redemption 2 Story Trailer?
Red or dead?
So, Red Dead Redemption 2's much-hyped story trailer landed yesterday, giving us our first... Well, our first proper look at Rockstar's sequel. The video introduces Arthur Morgan -- an outlaw who we all assume is going to be the lead character. Morgan runs with the Van der Linde gang headed by Dutch, who you may remember from the...
News Red Dead Redemption 2 Story Trailer Introduces an All-New Outlaw
Ganging up
As predicted, Rockstar has wheeled out a fantastic trailer for Red Dead Redemption 2. The video introduces us to Arthur Morgan, an outlaw who rides with the famous Van der Linde gang. We assume this means that the game won't feature multiple heroes like Grand Theft Auto V. So what else can we learn from the trailer? Well, we’ve now got...
News Red Dead Redemption 2 Returns Next Thursday
Rockstar teases more info
Rockstar is teasing something Red Dead Redemption 2 related over on Twitter, and as you'd expect, the gaming sphere has gone nuts.

News L.A. Noire Will Be Doing Some Detective Work on PS4 Later This Year
Rockstar announces port
Following rumours that surfaced earlier this year, somewhat-sandbox detective title L.A. Noire is making the jump to PlayStation 4, Rockstar Games has confirmed. The original released on the PlayStation 3 all the way back in 2011, and it was reasonably well received by critics and gamers alike. The current-gen edition...

News Grand Theft Auto V Has Shipped an Absolutely Insane 80 Million Copies
Digital sales included
We all knew Grand Theft Auto V as going to be gigantic, but we don't think anyone realised just how preposterously successful it would actually end up being. Rockstar's open world blockbuster has surpassed 80 million sales according to publisher Take-Two, which is an utterly insane figure. Equally mental is that the title has...
News That Leaked Red Dead Redemption 2 Screenshot Isn't the Real Deal
Shot down
And that's why you put "rumour" before a headline that may or may not turn out be true. Yesterday we reported on an allegedly leaked Red Dead Redemption 2 in-game image. The picture itself is pretty darn boring, but there's so much hype surrounding Rockstar's next blockbuster that we couldn't just ignore it. We noted that the...

Video Red Dead Revolver PS4 Readies Us for Redemption 2
Straight to the Wild Wild West
This author's last-last-gen Western of choice was Activision's cult classic GUN, so Red Dead Revolver kinda got lost in our boots. But Rockstar wasn't peddling snake oil back in 2004 – this game was clearly ahead of its time. Turning back the clocks with this PlayStation 4 port, the control scheme feels almost...
Rumour Red Dead Redemption Is Being Remastered for PS4

Video Is The Warriors Worth Revisiting on PS4?
Streets of rampage
The game based on the movie based on the book is back, as The Warriors stealth released on the PlayStation 4 recently as part of Sony's PlayStation 2 ports initiative. In our latest livestream, we figured that we'd give the brawler the once over – and you can watch us get busy with our fists above.
News Rockstar's The Warriors Brawls to PS4
Can you dig it?
Rockstar's made some unexpected games over the years, with The Warriors being one of them. Based upon the 1979 movie of the same name – which itself was inspired by a 1965 novel – the game's essentially a beat-'em-up, which originally released all the way back in 2005 on the PlayStation 2. And now, via Sony's emulation...

The saga continues
Last week we reported that Grand Theft Auto V's story based downloadable content may still be happening.

News Wait, Did Grand Theft Auto V Just Get a Graphical Downgrade on PS4?
Loss Santos
Bit of a weird one, this, but YouTube user ElAnalistaDeBits reckons that the PlayStation 4 version of Grand Theft Auto V has suffered a graphical downgrade after the game's latest update. On Reddit, opinions are torn as to why this might be. Some argue that it's a purposeful move, with Rockstar having to tweak things in order to add...
Weirdness Here's What Grand Theft Auto V Would Play Like With a First-Person View
Mind the clipping
Grand Theft Auto V certainly doesn't have the best shooting mechanics that we've seen in a game, but perhaps a first-person view would make its gunplay more appealing. If this has been a thought that's crossed your mind more than once, you'll be happy to hear that modder and YouTuber XBLToothPik has crafted a script that allows...

News Max Payne 3 Dual-Wields In New Screens
Forget one gun, Max Payne doesn't do things by halves
In a batch of new screenshots for Max Payne 3, Rockstar has shown off the moody character clasping weapons in both hands. It's all looking rather dark and gritty. Which we suspect is exactly what fans of the series have been clamoring for.</em>
