Welcome to a brand new Homerun – the best place to find out what’s new in PlayStation Home for Europe and North America.
There is a fair bit of new content this week so lets go straight into it!
Twitter? Prizes? Well, it is Tuesday, and you know what that means don’t you?
Yes, today and repeating every Tuesday, PS3 Attitude becomes PSFree Attitude, where we give away great prizes to you, our delectable readers, via the medium of Twitter.
Welcome to the final week of MAG Monday. As such, this week will be all about Team Attitude’s thoughts on their time with MAG, in time for the second part of our review.
The Homerun is back for another view of the week’s new content to reach PlayStation Home.
This week is dominated by a new software update weighing in at 49mb that features what Sony call a Navigator, which replaces the World Map and will show when launching Home.
No, this isn’t a dream; Final Fantasy XIII is finally here! To celebrate, we’re taking a look at the Collector’s Edition, which is chock-full of Final Fantasy related goodies. As with Heavy Rain, this version of the game is exclusive to the PAL region, but fortunately is available from a variety of retailers in each participating country.
Age of Zombies is the latest mini from Halfbrick, the Aussie team behind PSN title Blast Off. The game has Barry Steakfries, the badass protagonist, travelling through various ages of time, blasting through hoards of zombies as he attempts to stop his evil nemesis Professor Barry Brains.
There is nothing particularly remarkable about Age of Zombies that sets it apart from the overabundance of zombie games around: dressing the zombies up as mummies or cavemen does not hide the fact that it’s another typical zombie shooter. Yet, Age of Zombies is still an incredibly moreish game that keeps clawing us back for more.
In this second episode of Special Edition Unboxed, we’re taking an in-depth look at the Special Edition of the incredible Heavy Rain. This version of the game is exclusive to the PAL region, and in the UK is only available in HMV.
A while ago, my PS3 broke. It was terrible. There I was in the middle of Oblivion, when suddenly, everything went black. Nothing responded, and there was an ominous light; it was amber.
Welcome to our monthly feature were we tell the world what’s been happening over the last month at PS3 Attitude.
It is Tuesday, and you know what that means, don’t you?
Yes, today and repeating every Tuesday, PS3 Attitude becomes PSFree Attitude, where we give away great prizes to you, our delectable readers.
The reviews for White Knight Chronicles have been mixed. Even though we thought the game was good, there are obvious flaws that hinder the experience.
Level-5 made improvements to White Knight Chronicles after the game was originally released in Japan. While the story can’t be changed at this point, simple tweaks can be made to the gameplay itself.
We’ve come up with five ways that would make White Knight Chronicles a better game.
Make no mistake, zombies are fun to kill. We’ve had years of pleasure dismembering these lumbering sacks of meat. They allow us to become murderous fiends without our consciences ever getting in the way, but should we feelguilty about all those heads we’ve blown off with a rusty sawn -off shotgun? Of course not; zombies don’t have feelings – we’re doing them a favour by freeing them from the undignified situations they are in.
Nevertheless, maybe they deserve a break because they are being so over-used they’re starting to lose their impact.
Welcome to the Homerun for the 25th of February 2010 – the best place for news and views on the latest content for PlayStation Home.
This week is dominated by costumes for different gaming franchises, and a White Knight Chronicles photo competition.
With the release of Heavy Rain this week, I thought I’d revisit some of the most innovative games that have graced the PlayStation 3 in the last few years.
Nowadays, it feels like every other game is a direct copy of Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto, so it’s refreshing when a game pushes the boundaries and pioneers something which is genuinely new.
Welcome to MAG Monday week 3. It’s a good time to be involved with MAG’s online community, as after only five days on sale the game managed to come in thirteenth in the all formats chart.
Do good sales equal a good experience? As always, Team Attitude is here with our thoughts.
Pick up any video game these days and the likelihood that the main character is a white male is pretty high. With February being Black History Month, we’re taking a look at the depiction and evolution of African Americans in video games.
Where did the origins of African American characters in video games begin? Is their depiction considered stereotypical or even racist? All these questions and more will be discussed.
Unforgiving. Tense. Subtle. Light Weight’s seminal one-on-one fighting classic Bushido Blade was many things.
What it wasn’t, however, was just another run of the mill beat ‘em up along the traditional lines of the Street Fighters and Tekkens of the brawling world.
It seems to be the case that the more powerful consoles are becoming, the rarer it is that we can just pick up and play a game. Instead, our time is being spent downloading and installing patches to rectify bugs which should have been resolved prior to release.
It begs the question: has the ability to release downloadable updates led to developers becoming more complacent than in previous generations regarding the bugs in their games?
Welcome to MAG Monday week 2. This is quite an important week for MAG, as people should now know whether or not this is the online game for them. So will the servers be empty? Or has MAG won our hearts – despite poor supply from retailers.
As always, Team Attitude are here to give our thoughts.
Though technically not coming from Japan at all (it was developed in Squaresoft’s California office), Parasite Eve is very much the quintessential Japanese game.
An RPG with lush cinematics and quirky random battles, Squaresoft’s modern day tale of transformation and deceit ticks a lot of boxes when compared to similar games that surfaced in the late 90s.
