GamesRadar+ was first founded in 1999, and since then has been dedicated to delivering video game-related news, reviews, previews, features, and more. Since late 2014, the website has been the online home of Total Film, SFX, Edge, and PLAY magazines, with comics site Newsarama joining the fold in 2020. Our aim as the global GamesRadar Staff team is to take you closer to the games, movies, TV shows, and comics that you love. We want to upgrade your downtime, and help you make the most of your time, money, and skills. We always aim to entertain, inform, and inspire through our mix of content - which includes news, reviews, features, tips, buying guides, and videos.

The PlayStation 4's release might be a few weeks away, but that doesn't mean you'll need to wait until then to find out more about the system. We've got our hands on a controller, and spent some time taking sexy, sexy pictures. Want to see high-res images of the Share button? Look at that adorable indent on the analog stick? Well, you're in luck--check out the gallery above for some pictures, and the video below to see us unbox it.
