E3 2010 Pityoma Heads To The PlayStation Portable This Summer
One-time PlayStation 3 oddball, Pityoma, has been announced for release on the PlayStation Portable this summer
The game's essentially a puzzle-title with a twist involving eggs and hens. It's a "chain the colours" affair at its core though. Still, seems like the type of game that's perfect for the PSP, right? Right.
E3 2010 Everybody's/Hot Shots Tennis Demo Hits The PlayStation Store Today
SCEE's announced that a demo for Everybody's Tennis will hit the PlayStation Store today
The game's due later this year, but the demo should give you a taste of what to expect from the tennis RPG. We love tennis games (too much), so we're excited. We kinda wished this was a PlayStation Move title though.
E3 2010 Patapon 3 Heads To The PlayStation Portable
Despite rumours claiming Patapon 3 was about to make the jump to the big-screen, Sony's revealed that the latest iteration in the rhythmn RPG is set to release on the PSP

E3 2010 Your First Look At PlayStation Move's European Packaging
Gamerzines has your first look at PlayStation Move's packaging here in Europe
While the stand-alone peripherals for the PlayStation Move controller and Navigation Controller fit in-line with other PlayStation peripherals, the Move Starter Kit packaging is a bit more bold and in-your face. Doesn't look particularly offensive to us. Pricing seems good...
E3 2010 MotorStorm: Apocalypse Trailer Is All About Falling Buildings
MotorStorm games have always been fun
But we honestly couldn't imagine how they could get more fun than Pacific Rift. That game, for us, is the pinnacle of arcade racing. But that's why we're not game designers, and developers Evolution Studios are. The answer, of course, was to include falling buildings. And plenty of falling buildings there are in...
E3 2010 PlayStation Move "Zapper" Is Sort Of Shameless, But Super Awesome
Every motion controller needs a good light-gun docking station, right? (Apart from Microsoft's Kinect, 'cos you are the controller - pew
pew!) Well PlayStation Move's kicks some serious ass. Kinda. Sure, it's sorta a shameless play on what Nintendo did with the Wii Zapper - but look at it! It looks like it came straight out of a flippin' sci-fi...
E3 2010 Kung-Fu Rider Looks Suitably Ridiculous
The pitch: you're an office worker, riding an standard office chair down a hill, trying to escape the Japanese mafia
Yep, we wish we were getting more games out of you this generation, Japan Studio. Still, Kung-Fu Rider looks brilliant.
E3 2010 Eye Pet Does "Cute" In Your Pocket
Sony's confirmed that their under-rated augmented reality release, Eye Pet, is headed to the PlayStation Portable

News Cross-Game Chat Finally Makes Its Way To The PlayStation 3
After what seems like an eternity of nagging, Sony has finally confirmed that cross-game chat is heading to the PlayStation 3
But will the nagging cease? No. See, as much as people want cross-game chat (enough to moan and moan in every message board we visit), they object to the idea of it being part of the PlayStation Plus package. So, you guys...

E3 2010 Latest SOCOM 4 Hands-On Demo Reveals Massive Upgrade
The original SOCOM 4 unveiling was a little underwhelming to us
Seemingly thrown in at the end of Sony's GDC coming-out party, the game looked barely finished and, as such, a little uninspiring. But this hands-on preview with IGN's Greg Miller has totally changed our perception. Not only was the game given a glowing write-up, but Greg's also posted...
News Gran Turismo 5 Le Mans Footage Sneaks Onto YouTube
We picked up this YouTube video of Gran Turismo 5 over at VG247
The most striking thing to us is the unbelievable sense of speed when the player's not crashing. Gran Turismo's often been criticised for its inability to convey a real sense of motion, but it looks like they've finally nailed it. Silky smooth. Surely ready for release now?

E3 2010 Killzone 3 Trailer Shows You Everything You Could Possibly Want To See (For Now)

E3 2010 SOCOM 4 Shoots-Up Shanghai
Apparently you're going to be outnumbered and outgunned in SOCOM 4, as you head to a war-torn Shanghai
Yes, Shanghai again. Why is it that every video game is set in Shanghai these days? Still, the game's looking pretty good. We've enjoyed the single-player SOCOM campaigns on the PSP, so we're definitely stoked for a Zipper Interactive developed...
