Ashes Cricket developer Big Ant have announced that they’ll soon be serving up AO Tennis. If the title wasn’t a dead giveaway, then here’s the gist of the game: It’s based on the Australian Open event, has Tennis Australia collaborating with the studio and will feature dozens of licensed players in the roster.

The PS2 dashboard is still a work of art, a simplistic collection of menus which allowed players a host of options to navigate through and tweak their game output that little bit more. It’s also getting a revival, just in time for players to slap on some rose-tinted nostalgia goggles and wax lyrical about the good ol’ days.

Announced on the weekend, the rest of the Jak and Daxter games will be headed to ye olde PlayStation 4, to complete a collection that began with Naughty Dog and Mass Media Games’ remastering back in 2012 on PS3, eventually finding its way to the PS4 this year with the Precursor Legacy. Said list will include Jak 2, Jak3 and Jak X: Combat Racing, which will allow you to Jak off to your sick heart’s content.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! The faux trees that have been set up since July are finally selling, the roads are deadlier than ever and every coastal city on the East and West coast is prepping itself for an influx of bare-footed Joburgers in shopping malls. Tis also the time of deals when it comes to video games, something that has become an annual tradition with Sony and their PlayStation platform. This year, Sony is kicking off its 12 Deals of Christmas with a blast from the past: Crash Bandicoot.

The year ahead has plenty of contenders for game of the year lined up. Here’s a look at every confirmed game so far, as well as those titles which are waiting on a date.

It’s true! It’s damn true! A new game based on My Hero Academia (or Boku No Academia accrding to Geoff who also rubbished any claims that he might actually be a fan of anime) has been announced. Straight out of the latest issue of Weekly Jump via Gematsu, you can expect to lock horns and throw down a Detroit Smash as all of your favourite characters from the hit manga and anime series soon, in My Hero Academia: One’s Justice.

Ghost of Tsushima is clearly the kind of game that has had and still will have years of development pumped into it. In fact, it’s that lengthy and secret development time which had many a Sucker Punch fan worried about the future of the famed developer. After 2014’s inFAMOUS: Second Son, you couldn’t even squeeze a mouse fart out of the company, as they toiled away on Ghost of Tsushima. Was this a case of Sony playing its cards close to its chest and delaying the announcement of the game for as long as possible as they sought the perfect time to unveil it?

While you won’t see any chaos on the same level as the madness shown at North American Black Friday sales that our local retailers have copied with staggering 5% off discounts, you can expect to still see some hefty savings on the video game front. Sony is jumping on that ship from November 17 until November 24, with some solid savings on their consoles and games.
