Now this could very well be an excellent card game, but it’s still a card game. Clearly not the action-adventure experience you might think of when you hear the name Uncharted For more on this upcoming Vita game—called Uncharted: Fight For Fortune—head on over to the PlayStation Blog
Black Friday is coming. With that sales-pocalypse in mind, Sony’s just announced a bunch of hardware + software bundles to entice consumers to pick up their home console and handheld. Most of the deals will include games exclusive to Sony hardware— the exception being a Lego Batman bundle for Vita—as well as a PlayStation Plus…
I purchased my glossy black partner on January 30th, 2007. Since then it has run over 50 PS3 games, a bunch of PS2 and PS1 games, and probably hundreds of Blu-ray and DVD movies. But I had to bid farewell to my dear friend; my PS3 displayed the dreaded Yellow Light of Death, better known…
It’s called Ragnarok Tactics, and it’s a tactical role-playing game set in the world of Ragnarok Online. Trailer’s above. Out today on disc for $30 and on the PlayStation Network for $25, the game actually looks pretty interesting. I’ve never played Ragnarok Online, but I’m always a sucker for a good strategy-RPG. (Although nothing has…
Magazine publisher Future US will end circulation of PlayStation: The Official Magazine this year. As first reported by Game Informer, P:TOM will shut its doors alongside Nintendo Power this holiday “Future US can confirm it will end production of PlayStation: The Official Magazine with the last issue slated for the Holiday 2012 issue,” a Future…
One of the more noticeable differences between the East and the West is the prevalence of the handheld console. The popularity of handhelds in Japan is fairly understandable. For one thing, the high population density makes open space one of the island country’s most precious commodities. Also, the widespread use of public mass transit leads…
Here’s a new trailer for the Vita remake of Persona 4, which Atlus will release on November 20. Anyone buying a Vita just for this? I’d totally consider it if I didn’t have one already.
Every Wednesday, the Freddie Mac Foundation sponsors a segment on local news channels in Atlanta, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia and Washington DC, turning the cameras on one of their kids who is in need of adoption. The latest was Justin, a “quiet, reserved child” who sure does love video games. So for his turn…
Japanese horror game Corpse Party pleased (and creeped out) a lot of Americans when it came out for PSP last fall—the morbid, horrifying adventure game is also surprisingly delightful. So it’s great news to hear that publisher XSEED Games is also localizing the sequel, to be digitally released for PSP this winter. Perhaps this is…
Looks neat, doesn’t it? This is Dokuro, a new puzzle-platformer by Game Arts (the Japanese dev behind games like Lunar). And it’s out for Vita today. Here’s Antonio Cara, community associate at Dokuro publisher GungHo Online, talking about the new game on the PlayStation Blog: As you progress through the treacherous castle, you are gradually…
You can check out the beta for Sony fighting game PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale starting tomorrow, assuming you are A) a PlayStation Plus user or B) a Vita owner. If you want to play on PS3, and you don’t have PlayStation Plus, you’ll have to wait until October 23 for access to the beta, which…
It’s unfortunate that Sony chose to release Derrick the Deathfin smack in the middle of what I’m unofficially calling VIDEO GAME WEEK ’12. (I’ve got t-shirts.) So here’s a little shout-out for the little guy: if you can wrest yourself away from Dishonored, XCOM, or any of the other awesome games that are out this…
Believe it or not, the PlayStation Vita has been quietly picking up steam this fall. Two new Vita games from Japan with weird premises and even weirder titles—Dokuro and Orgarhythm—are coming to the U.S. within the next couple of weeks. First up is Dokuro (pictured above). Out October 16 for $20 on PSN, it’s a…
Aside from mention that the case is being fought over “trademark infringement”, there really isn’t much information in the court filings detailing the legal battle between Sony and Jerry Lambert, the actor who for years has played the fictional PlayStation executive Kevin Butler. A Sony statement issued today, however, casts a little more light on…
Following a bizarre turn of events and a highly unlikely TV commercial, actor Jerry Lambert—for years the “face” of the PlayStation brand—is being sued, along with Bridgestone, by none other than Sony itself. Despite having made something of a name for himself playing the fictional PlayStation executive Kevin Butler, last month Lambert appeared in an…
Toukiden was one of the titles announced for both the PSP and PS Vita at last month’s SCEJ (Sony Computer Entertainment Japan) Press Conference. A couple of the title’s biggest selling points are that it is being developed as a collaborative project between SCEJ and Tecmo Koei, and that the game will have cross-platform capabilities…
Have you played Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors? If not, you really should. It’s a wonderful visual novel-slash-point-and-click adventure with a tendency to make your brain explode, and I recommend that everyone take the time to experience it. If you have played 999, you’ll be delighted to know that there’s a sequel—Zero Escape: Virtue’s…
As of this August, we had only seen one screen of the HD remake of cult favorite Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee. But Oddworld Inhabitants unveiled pre-alpha footage of the work-in-progress at Eurogamer Expo this weekend. Along with a look at the game, it was announced that the remake’s official name is Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee – New…
Why is the PlayStation Vita floundering? One reason is that people just weren’t interested in developing games for it. At least that’s what Sony boss Shuhei Yoshida believes. “One thing that was surprising and disappointing to us was the [lower] number of third parties to come out [in support] after launch,” Yoshida told Gamasutra in…
An ex-Sony PR representative has publicly slammed his former company following a recent round of layoffs that left him out of work late last week. It’s hardly unusual for laid-off staffers to harbor ill will toward their former employers, but ex-PlayStation PR Will Powers voiced some striking criticism on Twitter this afternoon. He had harsh…
