Sony seems to be fighting itself. On one hand, they’re known for blockbuster, high-production, narrative-driven games like God of War , The Last of Us , Uncharted , Spider-Man , and Horizon . These games deliver gripping stories, stunning graphics, and tight gameplay for an overall cinematic experience. On the other hand, Sony is doing everything it can to shift away from this tried-and-true formula and enter the world of live-service games. These are games designed for players to engage with o…

We absolutely LOVE Astro bot! While not as widely recognizable as Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog , over the past several years, Astro bot has become the official mascot of the PlayStation brand—and for good reason! At first glance, this tiny, cute, blue-and-white robot might seem like just some side character from a generic video game, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

I used to love E3, I really did. Sure, it was made up of 93% pure cringe, but that was part of its charm. Watching game developers squirm on stage, trying to be cool while showing incomplete, buggy versions of their games was pure fun! Well, E3 is dead now and will probably never be coming back, But thank god for Geoff Keighley, who now seems to be holding the entire gaming industry on his scrawny shoulders as he hosts The Game Awards , Summer Games Fest, and Gamescom—all at pretty much the sam…
