Persona 4 Golden Review
Given the PlayStation brand's history as a rich platform for role-playing games and meaningful experiences, it's strange to think that, almost nine months post-release, the PlayStation Vita has yet to receive a traditional Japanese role-playing game.

Plants vs. Zombies Review (PS Vita)
Plants vs. Zombies was admittedly an initially tough sell for me. I came to the Vita seeking the kinds of deep, immersive games that cell phones and iDevices haven’t (with very few exceptions) delivered yet. I wanted the kind of story, art, gameplay, and all the bang a cutting edge console has...

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Review
The moment I ripped open the Christmas wrapping on a Sony PlayStation in 1999 was the moment when I like to imagine that I joined the PlayStation family. I'm grateful for the countless gaming memories and friends made in the years since, but PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is the kind of game I ...

PlayStation Move Review
For as long as there’s been a PlayStation 3, Sony has consistently touted that all of its consoles are built and marketed with a 10-year life span. So when the PS3 was released, complete with its beefy horsepower and a price tag to match, Sony wanted to provide features later into its lifespan...

Professional Baseball Spirits 2013 Review: "A sports game unlike anything seen on the western market"
Bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, 3-2 count, and the batter steps back into the box. The pitcher stares the batter down but he reciprocates the pleasantry as they try and gain a mental edge. Here comes the windup, the pitch, and the swing. Any baseball fan has heard this a million times as it is the most r...
