You could possibly be able buy it off of the PSN browser store and it will be on your download list whenever you get a PS4, but I guess this may also depend on whether they're pulling the files altogether from the server.

Yeah people say that works I think as long as you add that to your library;downloads you're ok,to add to the already terrible news apparently Guilhermo Del Toro confirmed that the project is dead there's no official confirmation yet but given the IQ of the chimps that run that company I wouldnt be surprised the greatest amount of awareness and goodwill a Silent Hill game hell a horror game have ever recieved reduced to nothing...

Project Cars is out. This has been long in the pipeline, as we all know. It does look good, from the small amount of footage I have seen. I will get it on PS4 when I eventually get a PS4 that is. I have a Logitech G27 so I am super keen to get it hooked up to that too!! What I do want to know is how good is it on Wii U??!!! I have quickly searched on You Tube but couldn't see gameplay footage, it was X1 and PS4. The Wii U should look bloody great though, really!!!

They haven't even announced a release date for the Wii U version. I wouldn't be surprised if they just cancel that version at this point.

Eh, I don't think it's such a bad thing. I was always kind of confused they even bothered to go for a Wii U version in the first place. Initially, they said they were going to release the game on 360 and PS3, before their successors were even announced. Even looking at the early footage then, I was doubtful that those console could handle it. So it didn't come as a surprise to me that those versions got cancelled. Even though the Wii U is more powerful, it's still closer to those old consoles than the new, so it seems strange to me that they would continue with that version when they already gave up on the others that would have been most similar.

There's also the fact that the Wii U controllers have no analogue triggers or buttons. You can't even get a steering wheel for the console. Not a serious one with real force feedback anyway. It just isn't suited to a racing sim at all. Even if one were to be released on the platform, it would not be a good place to play it. I would really love to see more racing games on the system though. There is lots of potential for some nice colourful arcade racers to make their home there. Something like the old Burnout games, or OutRun, would be right at home on the Wii U. There's that indie game "90s Arcade Racer" that's supposed to be coming at some point down the line, but apart from that, what other racing games are coming out for the system? I can't think of any. It's a shame.

If we just get a cinematic trailer at E3 there will be hell to pay :x

In hugely underwhelming news, we're apparently getting a Dishonored 'Definitive Edition' for Xbox One and PS4. That'll be the third version we've had since it's original release two and a half years ago! It's a good game and all, but these rehashes are getting beyond silly now, especially for titles like this that are multi-platform where a very good version can be picked up for peanuts on your last gen system of choice, and if you weren't interested first or second time round why would you be now? I can't believe anyone didn't pick up Dishonored just because it wasn't pretty enough!

I don't know why I even bother getting annoyed.....I'll shut up now.....

Koji Igarashi has a Kickstarter that fans of Castlevania might enjoy!

Also, rather good timing what with Konami seemingly imploding as a videogame company.

Have a read of the pieces on Kotaku and Polygon about it, it seems they have a pledge from a publisher to fund the project but ONLY if the kickstarter proves there's an audience for it. So they're not trying to raise the money to make the game as such, but to secure the rest of the funding.

I like the way they're using things like retweets and Facebook likes to unlock extra information. Clever use of social media.

Suspect I'll be backing this one, Symphony of the Night remains one of my favourite games, not sure whether to stick to digital copy or step up to the physical one.

Looks very promising. I hope it does well. I would want to watch some form of gameplay before I back myself though. The backer rewards are all quite pricey as well, although a lot of them are really cool.

I had to back this. I'm a sucker for these types of games. Just went for the physical release, which when converted back to sterling is pretty much normal new game price. I hope the project does well and he makes more modes n bosses..as mentioned in his vid.
