It shouldn’t be too big a surprise, seeing as a Killzone game helped sell the last PlayStation console launch, but in case you didn’t see it coming, Guerilla Games revealed a new Killzone game today for the PlayStation 4. It’s called Killzone: Shadow Fall. There’s a gameplay demonstration above, while the game’s official trailer is…
It had been speculated for a little while, but Sony just made it official: a big part of the PlayStation 4 will be a “share” button, that plays a big part not just on the dash and in your games, but in the way your friends lists are managed as well. Your friends list can…
Here’s your first look at Sony’s new controller for the PlayStation 4. It’s got a touchpad, motion control and a “light bar” for identification. There’s also a “share” button, and the light bar, as well as being used to identify players with colour coding, is also the means via which a new PlayStation camera can…
Not now. Not so close to the finish line. Not if Sony president Kaz Hirai and worldwide studios boss Shuhei Yoshida have anything to do with it. The Unlikely Hero [DemonNite, via @geoffkeighley]
I was reading the latest issue of Edge on my iPad yesterday when I came across an interview with Warwick Davis, who you may know as the star of Life’s Too Short, but who you’ll probably know for his roles as Wicket W Warrick in Return of the Jedi and Willow in… Willow And in…
American PSN account holders are reportedly getting emails handing out a free $10 credit that can be used on the PlayStation Store. So if you’ve got one and haven’t checked in on it for a while, now would be a good time to do so. It’s almost as though Sony is building hype for something……
Just in case you didn’t stay up and watch the last Japanese edition of a Nintendo Direct presser, Nintendo of America has translated and re-uploaded this opening segment from it. Why? Because at the start it’s got Nintendo’s two biggest names—president Satoru Iwata and legendary designer Shigeru Miyamoto—messing around in Luigi cosplasy in just about…
When hallowed British media institution The Sun partners with a video game publisher for some advertorial, as you can imagine, the results are deftly subtle The pair have managed to combine detailed coverage of Crysis 3 with a tasteful recognition of the broadening demographics of the video game market. How? By putting a blonde former…

Regardless of your thoughts on the merits of YouTube rappers, I’d hope that everyone visiting this site can appreciate the merits of the video for Gowe’s Aurora, which takes a healthy slice of inspiration not just from 16-bit video games, but Paul Robertson’s classic Pirate Baby video as well
The best thing on Twitter last year was Modern Seinfeld, a feed that gave 140-character episode outlines as though Seinfeld was still being made today. It was so damn good you could see each episode playing in your head as you read them. Well, there’s also one for video games. It’s called Video Game Seinfeld.…
Aussie games collector Onur Gonullu has, in just five years, amassed a haul of 550 mostly retro video games, which can be played on over 20 mostly retro video game consoles, from the Famicom to the Master System to the Xbox. He’s spent over $6000, and it’s a collection to be proud of. So it’s…
Battlefield 4 has yet to be properly, publicly announced. We know it’s coming, because it’s a sure bet EA will make more Battlefield games and because people already know they’re in beta, but nobody has seen the game in action or knows anything about it. Unless you work for GameStop, because you got to see…
Paradox’s March of the Eagles was released this week on PC, and if you’ve been at all swayed by my love of Crusader Kings II, the video above may have you thinking “wonderful, this is like that, only with muskets”. Be warned, then, that this isn’t the case. I’ve been playing the game since last…
Classic RPG (like, proper RPG) Shadowrun was, at one time, not a classic. In 1990, it was a product competing against other products, and had to sell itself. Using videos like this. If you thought live-action commercials/trailers in 2013 were still occasionally awkward, you may not want to watch this. It is 4:32 of Mr.…
Chris Anderson works at Turbine (Lord of the Rings Online) as a senior concept artist. Prior to that, he’s worked for a range of other MMO studios such as Tencent, Sony Online Entertainment, Mythic and NCSoft.

French artist Bastien Vives, whose cosmopolitan video game art does little to dispel French stereotypes, returns this week with a batch of terrific fan art. It’s not all video games—Disney features prominently—but you can excuse that when his Ninja Turtles characters (turtle or otherwise) are so, well, sexy. lundi… lorsque ce n’est pas de l’archéologie,…
Bungie co-founder Jason Jones said something recently that, depending on how you choose to look at it, could have been taken at best as an inaccurate assessment of the control preferences of the PC gaming market. It’s sparked an interesting to-and-fro between two websites, Ars Technica and Rock, Paper, Shotgun, the former declaring the “keyboard…
When you see a rumour end with the word “considering”, it’s always wise to tread cautiously. Because that word could mean anything. That said, this particular PS4 rumour comes from Britain’s The Times, so it’s at least worth… consideration. The report says that Sony is looking at “pricing the new device at about £300”, which…
