Created with children in mind (and more to the point, little girls, it appears), Falling Stars guides players through the world of Dazzleon, a land of mysteries and pastels that would make Queer Eye's Carson Kressley blush.

12:00 PM on 05.20.2013 Gran Turismo 6: A peek under the hoodJust a few weeks ago, we were picking over Gran Turismo 6 rumors, and now here we are with our very first preview. I was surprised to walk into a hands-on opportunity just one day after the title was officially announced. Surprised and pleased. It may not have been the PlayStation 4 launch game I was hoping for, but it's never really a bad time for more Gran Turismo.
