Play’s sister magazine, PowerStation, the UK’s only mag dedicated to hints, tips, cheats and walkthroughs to the biggest PS3 and 360 games has recently expended its reach onto YouTube, where you can find handy video walkthroughs to some of the toughest bits in your favourite games. Here’s one for probably the most difficult game on the PS3, Demon’s Souls.
Skate 2 had a fantastic community and with new features being added to Skate 3 we’re expecting even bigger and better things. While we wait for that to come out though we thought you might enjoy watching some of our favourite Skate.Reel vids. You can watch plenty more at skatereel.ea.com.
GTA as seen if it used Google Earth to make it. See the vid after the jump.
Perhaps as a response to all the attention being paid to Microsoft this week (damn them and their dedicated games conference!) Sony has launched a mesmerising new God Of War III trailer for you to drool over. It’s got plenty of gameplay, some set piece sneak peaks and lots of angry voice over from Kratos himself. Best bit is probably at the end though. “PS3, It only does Vengeance.” Check out the trailer after the jump.
Bethesda has released the very first glimpse of Fallout: New Vegas, the brand new RPG to be published by the makers of Fallout 3 and developed by Obsidian, who’s members include creators of Fallout 2, Knights Of The Old Republic 2 and Sega’s upcoming Alpha Protocol. We first heard about Fallout: New Vegas last year at a Bethesda press event in London, but now you can see it for yourself here.

Someone in Japan has posted a live feed of themselves playing Final Fantasy XIII, which obviously may contain spoilers, but is also a novel way of taking a sneaky peak if you just can’t resist.
Green Day has become the latest band to be honoured with their very own music game, with MTV Games having snagged exclusive rights for the Rock Band franchise
Arkham Asylum 2? They’re mad. While we’re excited to hear that Rocksteady is going to make another Batman game, we’re a little confused as to why it has to be called Arkham Asylum 2. A case for changing the name later on in development we think. Anyway, this debut trailer shows us that the Joker is alive, slightly unwell and clearly up to more mischief as his goons roam the streets and drive around in bumper cars.
It was no surprise when EA announced it was rebooting Medal Of Honor into a modern setting a few weeks back and it’s now no surprise to see that the debut trailer looks more than a little bit like a Modern Warfare trailer, sitting somewhere between the gritty drama of Call Of Duty 4 and the blockbuster action of Modern Warfare 2, only with a lead character who sports a huge beard
We got our first glimpse of Ubisoft’s latest Prince Of Persia title The Forgotten Sands this weekend at the VGAs and the reception to it has been mixed. Forgotten Sands is clearly making a move back to the last run of games that began with Sands Of Time, pasting over this generation’s Prince title. We doubt that is any true reflection of Ubisoft Montreal’s efforts last year; rather it is an admittance that the old style games fit more comfortably with the upcoming Hollywood adaptation starring Jake Gyllenhaal.
Sony Computer Entertainment America has produced this mini-documentary featuring interviews with the three top guys in its music production department
We’ve had our eye on Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption for a while now and marked it up with the Play Sharpie as ONE TO WATCH
