I make my love of role playing, racing and puzzle games known, but I don't talk much about my other love: golf games. I adore golf games. My favorite are the PangYa titles (PC, WII and PSP), but I have love for all of the Asi...

There's one deal on PlayStation Plus this week that just seems too good to pass up. Starting tomorrow, Critter Crunch will be available for only $1.40. At that price there's almost no excuse not to be regurgitating color...

Both Gearbox and SEGA have responded to a class action suit that alleges customers were lied to during the development of Aliens: Colonial Marines. Both companies are happy to defend themselves and seem unswayed by the threat...

[Update: Contest closed! Grand prize winnner is Dreamweaver! Runner-ups are N7, nekobun and Overindulgence!] Yes, you read that right. Freaking ukuleles. We've teamed up with Square Enix to give away a badass Army Corps of He...

Just as I was settling in to start typing this review, I had to reach for the case while muttering, "What is this one even called?" Such is the existence of the Asphalt series, a racing game so indistinct that you could play ...

[Update: Assassin's Creed creative director Patrice Désilets has responded to his departure from Ubisoft, calling it a "baseless" termination. Here's what he told Polygon: "Contrary to any statements made earlier today...

Remember when an Assassin's Creed was announced for the PlayStation Vita back in August? Ubisoft snuck the announcement amidst what would eventually become their launch line-up for the Vita in February of this year. We m...

One of my favorite surprises at E3 this year was seeing Assassin's Creed III Liberation on the PlayStation Vita. I know the Vita is a powerful handheld, but nothings really blown me away as much as Liberation has. See for yo...

Just as we're about ready to get our weekend on, Ubisoft announced that PlayStation Network users will be able to save on the two new Assassin's Creed games. Right now, there's a flash sale in North America with the following...

Liberation is a bit of conundrum. On one hand, it offers a pretty incredible portable Assassin's Creed experience for the first time, since the plethora of iOS spinoffs and Bloodlines didn't really do the series any true just...

Obviously the Atelier series of RPGs isn't for everyone, these adorable tales of magical anime heroines a few steps removed from the "burly men with assault rifles" narrative most gamers are familiar with. That being said, th...

Surprise! Atelier Totori Plus: The Adventurer of Arland has unexpectedly arrived on PlayStation Network. Not even officially confirmed for Western release, Tecmo Koei has somehow managed to sneak the game onto the platform wi...

Sony does a pretty terrible job at promoting its first-party games. For instance, take Sly Cooper. Droves of gamers were not only unaware that Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time launched last week, but they were completely in the da...

In addition to the launch of Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time for the PlayStation 3 and Vita (cross-buy for PS3), another franchise title is coming out today on the PSN: Bentley's Hackpack. It's priced at $2.99, and will also be ...

By the time Bit.Trip Runner burst onto the scene three years ago, Gaijin Games had already established itself on WiiWare with a trio of some of the best games on the platform. The retro-inspired rhythm series shared certain c...

If you were expecting to blast away some zombies on the go, think again: Activision has let it be known that there will be no zombies in Black Ops: Declassified for the Vita. Community Manager Dan Amrich had this to say: "Unf...

I feel I owe Nihilistic Software (now nStigate Games) an apology. After I had reviewed Resistance: Burning Skies, I thought it was a terrible game developer with no talent, no ambition, and no resources. Burning Skies' qualit...

Let's call Disney Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion a false start. It tried to recapture the spirit of Castle of Illusion on SEGA Genesis, but it sadly fell short. The actual remake, on the other hand, is looking like the real d...

The announcement of DuckTales Remastered caused a lot of people to freak the hell out, but that wasn't the only trick WayForward had up their sleeves. They've got a new IP coming "exclusively" to Nintendo 3DS, DS, Wii, W...

Other platformers have gone the random generation route, but not to the extent that Cloudberry Kingdom has. In fact, it's taken developer Pwnee Studios over four years to perfect the engine and game logic. After seeing it in ...

Spike Chunsoft has delivered the first footage of Conception 2 unto the world and it's looking pretty stellar. A role-playing game in the same vein as Atlus' Persona series, Conception 2 takes things to a whole new...

I'm in love. Contrast is slated to come to PC, PS3 (PSN), and Xbox 360 (XBLA) by year's end, but according to the game's website it will also be available for PS4 at launch. Also, the above YouTube trailer is designated "(PS...

The original Corpse Party follows a group of children's descent into hell. After performing a ritual, these students are unexpectedly transported to an alternate dimension and trapped in a cursed elementary school. Malevolent...

The first thing you'll notice about CounterSpy is its unique art style. Really, you can say that about a lot of the indie titles Sony has been picking up lately, but there's something extra special about this one. That probab...

In my preview for Darksiders II, I mentioned Death's Ghost Hook weapon which helps you navigate around levels or attack enemies. What I didn't mention was that you don't start off with the Ghost Hook right away so you won'...

In an interview with IGN, Ex-Vigil creative director Joe Madureira released a few nuggets of information on what Darksiders III could have been, provided Vigil staff, and not Nordic Games, had won the bidding war. “It w...

Last year, we returned to the sometimes strange but always beautiful Dead or Alive series; not in a leisurely beach title but in the series hallmark fighting genre. What we got was a deep, technical fighter that wasn't too te...

Compliments of a GameTrailers TV reveal, Destiny of Spirits was unveiled exclusively for the PlayStation Vita today at E3. It will be developed by Q Entertainment, otherwise known as the esteemed developer of the Lumines and Rez series. Not much is known right now about the game, other than the fact that it'll utilize free-to-play mechanics with "music and card battling" gameplay.

The enhanced Vita port of Disgaea 3, Absence of Detention, will be free later today on PlayStation Plus. If you need some background on the game, you play as a demon who wants to overthrow his Overlord father for destroying h...

Prior to playing DJMAX Technika Tune for this review, I could count the number of times I had listened to K-Pop music on one hand, one of those being PSY's "Gangnam Style." To some, that would make me only slightly ...

Quietly sneaking out among all the bigger announcement, Doki-Doki Universe got a little trailer for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita. A cross platform game that's free to play, Universe promises to be "more than a game" an...

Princesses, Dark Lords, menacing castles, dashing Prince Charmings -- you've seen it all before, right?But what if I told you the dashing prince was actually a skeletal servant of the Dark Lord, who, after a moral conundrum, decided to save the princess himself, and turn into a Prince Charming in the process?Enter Dokuro -- a wholly interesting concept for the Vita with a few mechanical problems.

Dragon Fantasy II is a wonderful retro homage to the glory days of SNES role-playing games. We already know it's heading exclusively to the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita soon, but what about the first game? Well I spok...

Have you played Dragon Quest? Did you like Dragon Quest? Yes? Then boy, do I have a game for you. Dragon Fantasy Book 1 is a celebration of the NES RPGs many of us grew up with. This is, for my money, an equal parts great and...

It's obvious Sony is going all out by getting all of the indie game makers they can. They've been getting all sorts of developers on board for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, and especially the PlayStation 4. Most of the...

Hey, cheater! Want to level up but don't want to put in the time? Playing Dragon Quest X? One smart Japanese gamer has come up with a way to rig up a PC that will leve your DQX character up while you are off enjoying the suns...

Dragon's Crown is easily one of my favorite games of E3. It's been on my radar for years, back when it was being published by UTV Ignition, but I've kept my distance lately with the visual style controversy. I had the opportunity to really dig in here at E3, and I like where it's headed.There's a lot more to this game than its polarizing visual style, so let's check it out.

When Capcom said that Dragon's Dogma was a valuable franchise, I assumed they planned on following it up with a carefully constructed sequel, addressing the concerns of the original. Well, maybe that will happen eventually, b...

Just when you thought your wallet was safe from Steam sales, something like this bundle drops. In it we see seven games, each using the Unreal engine, for just twenty bucks. These aren't just any Unreal engine games either; t...

Dungeon Hunter: Alliance originally came to the PlayStation Network in April 2011, where it is still available for $12.99. A few months later, the game was ported to Mac, where it has recently been on sale for $0.99.  Ga...

If you build it, a Dynasty Warriors spin-off will come. This has been true of any game system released in the past few years, and Tecmo Koei has no intention of breaking tradition with the PlayStation Vita. Dynasty Warriors N...

We've been given the heads up that Earth Defense Force 2017 Portable will be getting a temporary price reduction through April 2, 2013. While the original price is something I absolutely would have paid if I owned a PlayStati...

I never tire of shooting giant bugs, so I was thrilled to see D3 publisher with not one, but two EDF titles on the Tokyo Game Show floor. Earth Defense Forces 3 Portable is port of the game we know as Earth Defense ...

We heard about Ecolibrium back in September, though this free application for PlayStation Vita is only now available in North America. As the name suggests, this is all about putting together a balanced ecosystem that will a...

Unchained Blades developer FuRyu has unveiled its next project, Exstetra, a fantasy role-playing game for PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS. The story sounds pretty bizarre. Or maybe it's just like every other JRPG ever. I'll...

Alright! That's one game crossed off my list! Let's see if the rest follow suit! The latest issue of Nintendo Power has confirmed that Extreme Escape Adventure: Good People Die, the sequel to the f*ckin' amazing visual novel ...

I love arcade racing games. The sense of speed, the excitement of hairpin turns, and the hum of the engine get my blood pumping in a fast and fun way. Racing sims can offer the same enjoyment yet allow for more customization ...

EA Sports is bringing just one game to the PlayStation Vita launch party, but it looks as if that title will be one of the stars of the show. I played FIFA Soccer back in mid-October, and came away feeling like EA Canada has...

I hope you weren't expecting anything extra with the return of Final Fantasy X, announced at last year's Sony press conference at TGS. Square Enix's Shinji Hashimoto answered some fan questions at the Taipei Game Show and mad...

Cute-'em-up Flying Hamster HD is coming to PlayStation Vita on June 11, developer The Game Atelier has announced. An adorable horizontal shooter, the story chronicles the journey of Newton, a brave young hamster on a qu...

"It's telling you to do things that you don't normally want to do." That's Jonathan Holmes' description of Frobisher Says, a collection of bizarre minigames not unlike WarioWare. Nothing against the game, which seems worth getting since it's a free download, but the real highlight here is watching Holmes be Holmes. I only wish I could've seen the horrified look on the Sony rep's face.

The currently Japan-only release of God Eater 2 has some new screens to show off today, and in usual fashion, they highlight the game's oversized set of weapons. There's some crazy stuff on offer here, like giant swords, claw...

I'm of the view that Gravity Rush is, and remains, one of the best games on the PS Vita, and worth a play, regardless of what you think of it in the end. Jim might not have cared for it, but it seems whoever was in charg...
