Hi Playstation Fans! I’m Miguel Sternberg, game designer and art director at Spooky Squid Games. We want to introduce you to Russian Subway Dogs and announce our full lineup of amazing (or at least amazingly weird) guest characters! Russian Subway Dogs is a systemic arcade game inspired by the real life stray dogs of Moscow Metro. These dogs have actually learned to how to navigate the subways and commute from the quiet safe suburban stations to the downtown where they can scavenge for food. Seriously, google it! The Moscow Metro happens to also be an amazing setting featuring some of the most beautiful stations in the world that we’ve meticulously recreated in detailed pixel art.

It’s PlayStation Plus time! Here are the free games coming to PlayStation Plus members in April 2018. First stop: Mad Max for PS4! Developed by Avalanche Studios, you star as the iconic lone warrior surviving a hostile Wasteland. Max Rockatansky’s dangerous journey begins after a gang steals his legendary Interceptor. Combining open-world vehicle combat with bone-crunching battles, Mad Max will keep you fully immersed as you fight to get your Interceptor back and make it to the Plains of Silence.

Way back in 1998, the original PlayStation was graced with the first 'Xenogears' game and it was a masterful piece of gaming. Nearly twenty years later, we now have the new 'Xenoblade Chronicles 2' on the Nintendo Switch and it is genuinely brilliant.

A trailer for David Cage’s Detroit: Become Human hints at the danger of trivialising sensitive social issues
To what extent might a semi-autonomous robot maid be able to intervene in domestic abuse cases of the future? The question underpins , a forthcoming PlayStation game directed by the French game maker David Cage.
Last week, during a press event held in Paris, Cage showed footage of the game, due for release next spring, in which Kara, an android housekeeper, bears witness to an American father’s psychological and physical abuse of his daughter. “What are you looking at?” the man demands over a fraught dinner, as the girl, Alice, winces.
The deeply troubling implication is that, to escape violence, a victim need only make the 'correct' choices

With its stunning visuals, the Xbox One X is the closest thing to a good PC gaming experience in console form. But is it worth a £100 upgrade?
Four years after the launch of the original machine, Microsoft’s Xbox One family is now finally complete. Although the Xbox One X has been hailed as the most powerful console ever made, it very much remains an Xbox One derivative, running all the same games and working with all the accessories with no Xbox One X exclusives. What you get is improved audio-visual performance – rather like the difference between playing a PC game on a regular mid-range home computer versus a high-end gaming monster.
Greater power hasn’t meant a giant form factor though – this might be one of the least conspicuous consoles in history. Reverting to black after the refreshing “robot white” colouring of the Xbox One S, it’s a truly minimalist slab of modern consumer electronics design taking up less space than any previous Xbox iteration. Microsoft claims to have employed cutting-edge engineering techniques to achieve its sleek form factor, including a vapour chamber cooling system, which has led to an impressively quiet machine. During gameplay, there’s little more than a gentle hum coming from the unit – comparing well with the PlayStation 4 Pro and previous Xbox machines.
Pros: Native 4K gaming, cutting edge components, quiet running, UHD Blu-ray player
Cons: Comparatively expensive, UI remains cumbersome, limited functionality for 1080p TVs
