Review by Nick H. At first glance, Conception II might not look like it is anything special. The story itself is as tried and true as almost any other JRPG as you assume the role of a chosen one with incredible power that will join forces with others to save…
Read MoreReview by Brad L. Look! Up in the sky! Is it Metroid? Is it Castlevania? No, it’s a cheap imitation starring Batman! That’s the general feel while playing Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate on the PS3, updated from the Vita/ 3DS title of last year. I was personally excited for this…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. Having already sunk countless hours into Trials Evolution, I was left wondering where developer RedLynx would next take the series.

Read MoreNews by Matt S. Sony recently published a trailer for Freedom Wars; an uncoming Vita action/ survival game with a strong online multiplayer component.
