K.O.
With the surprise announcement that BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma would be available on the European PlayStation Store this week, it was met with mixed emotions due to the lack of a retail release.

Rumour PS4 Exclusive Resogun May Be Getting Local Co-Op DLC
Standby for arguments
Resogun is a remarkably intense solo experience. Dodging and weaving your way through millions of voxels is a complete thrill by any standard.

While it may be one of the funniest times of the year, April Fools' Day can also be a bit of a nightmare on our end, as a lack of scrutiny can lead to a reporter accidentally posting a prank as real news.

Video The Last of Us: Left Behind from a Family Perspective
One for the parents
