As great a system as the PlayStation Vita is, it's hard to love it when it has such a small library of worthwhile games. Sony just isn't pushing the system as hard as they should, getting developers on board with more promising games like Soul Sacrifice. As one of the few bright spots in the [...]
What do Kratos and Nathan Drake do between battles? Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank? Maybe they just eat bagels. Or at least that's what the guys at Robot Chicken think. They did a cool little commercial for Sony to promote Playstation All-Stars: Battle Royale and I just enjoy the style of their stop-animation. [...]
I've been paying closer attention to Assassin's Creed III than the previous games in the series, if only because I'm interested in the new twists on the formula the game is receiving. The spin-off game for the Playstation Vita, Assassin's Creed III: Liberation, looks to be even more unique. The main character is an African-French assassin [...]
Though it still doesn't have the broad name recognition of Final Fantasy here in the US, Atlus's Persona series has risen to prominence among gamers who have been searching for new, meaty games this generation, which has seen a dearth of quality JRPGs.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, [...]

Due to some copyright shenanigans with Sega, Arc System Works lost the rights to make Guilty Gear for a while, which meant no more endless iterations instead [...]
Finally, a reason to dust off Sony's latest handheld. If you bought a PlayStation Vita at launch, but have already exhausted the system's limited selection of titles, then you'll be pleased to hear that PlayStation (PSOne) titles will finally be supported when Sony launches its 1.80 firmware on August 28th.
The news comes amidst a recent [...]
Foregoing traditional launch tactics, Sony staggered the launch of their PlayStation Vita by offering several different bundles for their new handheld.
