There was drama among gaming enthusiasts this weekend when a paywalled Digital Foundry analysis of some early PS5 Pro footage attached some lower than expected resolutions to titles like Alan Wake 2. We're going to refrain from sharing the information here, primarily because it's not publicly...

Ratchet & Clank games are rarely bad. There's obviously incredible ones, like A Crack in Time, and then there's middling ones, like Quest for Booty – but they're almost always decent. PSP spin-off Secret Agent Clank, along with tower defence title Full Frontal Assault, is probably the worst...

Crimson Desert already received a load of gameplay footage for Gamescom last month, but those videos focused exclusively on boss battles. So, just to remind everyone that this is an open world adventure, developer Pearl Abyss has dropped a massive 50-minute gameplay demonstration, which...

It's as natural as day turning to night: make a silly announcement and the memes will follow. Sony's decision to price the PS5 Pro at a hair-raising $700/£700 has proven the perfect backdrop for a social media clown show, then – and boy are some of these memes amusing. For big corporations like...

Tony Hawk, the legendary skateboarder and namesake of Activision's beloved skateboarding game series, has teased something in relation to the franchise's 25th anniversary. Speaking in an interview with Mythical Kitchen, the Californian appears to more or less confirm a new game of some sort in...

The excellent Astro Bot has today received a game update, though exactly what it does is a mystery. The patch comes in at about 384MB, and it's available to download and install now. Unfortunately, we've been unable to source any patch notes for this update to the 3D platformer. We'll of course...

Following the reveal of the PS5 Pro earlier this week, one of the talking points that's been cropping up has been about whether the next generation of Xbox and PlayStation may be adopting a much higher price point in general. There's obviously been a lot of criticism over the $699.99 price tag...

There's been much reminiscing among PS5 owners of late, as Astro Bot stirred fond memories of a bygone PlayStation era for fans. Well, if you're the kind of person raised on a diet of Vib-Ribbon and Ape Escape, you absolutely should be playing Mister Mosquito, an outright barmy PS2 exclusive...

During the PS5 Pro reveal video, the ever-informative Mark Cerny dropped a rather interesting detail with regards to PS5 graphics options. One of Sony's main selling points for the Pro is that players will no longer be forced to choose between visual fidelity and performance modes, with the...

All anyone's really talking about when it comes to PS5 Pro is the mid-gen console's price point, and it's easy to understand why. Even for gaming enthusiasts, an MSRP of $699.99/£699.99 is a hard pill to swallow, regardless of how much more powerful the machine purportedly is than the regular...
