In fact, Sony's complete lack of fear regarding game delays are probably why the company has a console with what many would agree is one of the strongest exclusive libraries in the history of consoles. While it's disappointing to find out consumers will need to wait longer for exciting games, it's better that than getting them half-finished - and Tsushimalegend.Com in the case of Ghost of Tsushima , there wasn't even a release date announced, so it's not like a late 2020 release is a change in public pl

"This is a game inspired by history; we are not recreating history stone by stone. This is an original work. We absolutely love feudal Japan; it's a place that makes our imaginations go crazy. The idea of taking on a world of samurai, especially inside this dramatic situation with the Mongol invasion, is attractive. And we want to get the details right, to transport you back in time, but we don't want to run fast and loose with [the] history that real people went through. That's why the actual names of the samurai that were killed on the beach - we don't use those because we want to be respectf

Unlike last year's Tokyo Game Show , the Readers' Choice poll and DualShockers' staff poll didn't line up -- not to say it didn't win awards from us, either. However, given that we consider it the most important award, we are going to start off with that game fi

Additionally, we normally award our special Biggest Shocker!!! award to the game that catches us most by surprise. And while the trailer for this really did leave our staff hooping and hollering, we couldn't help but give it to the game with literally the biggest Shocker in

When it was revealed that Fox McCloud, the leader of the Star Fox team, was going to be in Ubisoft’s "toys-to-life" space shooter Starlink: Battle for Atlas , I was floored. As a long-time Star Fox fan, hearing the iconic gibberish followed by Fox himself was one of my highlights from the show. From there, I was s

PES 2019 has a lot to prove going into this year. With the FIFA series picking up the license for the once-exclusive Champion's League , developer Konami has an uphill battle -- and is fighting tooth and nail to showcase what they can bring to the table in the world of footb

We got to sit down with Sucker Punch Productions to see Ghost of Tsushima up close. Though it was the same demo shown at the conference, we did learn important new details. The game takes place in 1274 during the Mongols’ invasions of the island of Tsushima. You play as Jin Sekai, the last living samurai on the island. Having lost everything to the Mongols, Jin now fights for the common people as he tries to stave off the invasion.

The gameplay in Code Vein was heavily inspired by the Dark Souls series, although, thankfully, it's not quite as difficult. Even so, there's enough challenge here to satisfy most players and more than enough content to keep them busy for quite some time. In that respect, it's one of the more accessible Souls-like games availa

Overall, Ghost of Tsushima's gameplay was every bit as impressive in great detail as it was shown during Sony's press conference. One of the things highlighted during the hands-off gameplay presentation was the physics-based engine and the realistic blood patterns. For instance, players will be able to see the exact spot they hit an enemy with their katana. And every individual blood particle has been designed to splatter as realistically as possible. Hopefully, we get to see more of that as the game continues to be refined in developm

We’ve been sold on the idea of Insomniac Games making a Spider-Man title since it was first revealed a few years ago but somehow after finally playing it for ourselves at E3 we left more impressed than expected. With the best feeling web-swinging ever seen in a Spidey game and combat that truly makes you feel like the Wall Crawler, it’s easy to see how this one took home so many of our awards. September can’t come soon eno

Now that the dust has settled around E3 2018 it’s time to take a look back and pick our favorites from the annual show. As usual there were a lot of games at the show this year, and plenty of things that impressed us. However, in order to qualify for our Best-Of list, a game needed to be playable or played in front of us. Trailers are great to build hype but they don’t always represent the finished product. So without further ado, here are our 10 Best Games of E3 2018 in alphabetical or

Ghost of Tsushima does share some DNA with Sly Cooper’s stealth sections. Jin can attack enemies outright or stalk them from the shadows and stealthily take them out. While this is out of character for a samurai, Sucker Punch did confirm that the narrative motivates the use of stealth. All of Jin’s samurai allies were killed fighting like samurai. To beat back the Mongols, Jin needs to vary up his tactics, even if it goes against everything he knows.

Instead of having a traditional press conference this year, Sony decided to put the focus on four core titles that are coming to the PS4 in the near future. One of those titles was Ghost of Tsushima , which was unveiled with a brief gameplay demo that doesn't take place too far into the game's story. There's no doubt that Ghost of Tsushima's trailer impressed both conference attendees and those watching at home - and Screen Rant got to hear more about the game during the E3 Expo in Los Angeles this w
