PSX 2015 Every PS4, Vita Press Conference Reveal That We Missed

This happens at practically every PlayStation press conference, but we'll tell you what: you only realise how much Sony actually stuffs into these shows when you have to write about it all.

PSX 2015 Epic Games Switching Sides to Sony with Paragon
Shifting gears to MOBA
Epic Games was under Microsoft's rein with the Gears of War franchise for several years, but they've since been rather low key working on several projects such as the PC-exclusive survival game Fortnite.

TGS 2015 Game Boy's Final Fantasy Adventure Gets a PS Vita Remake
Oh Mana
Final Fantasy Adventure, a Game Boy title that originally released all the way back in 1991, has a curious history – namely because it's not technically a Final Fantasy game at all and is actually the predecessor to Super Nintendo classic, Secret of Mana.
