REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it
By Starling
Posted on 06/15/13
E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

Assault & Battery Life: PlayStation Vita External Battery Planned

Posted on Friday, September 16 @ 09:22:04 Eastern by


Tons of PlayStation Vita details came out of Sony's Tokyo Game Show press conference. There was plenty of great news: A release date; massive launch line-up; new titles; over 100 games in development! But there was also some not-so-great news, like the pricing of the memory cards, and Vita's battery life. But Sony has a solution to at least one of those problems.

It was disappointing to find out that the PlayStation Vita only had a battery life comparable to the 3DS's 3-5 hour run-time. To ease some concerns about short playtime, Sony's Shuhei Yoshida has said that they'll be releasing an external battery for the PlayStation Vita, which should provide ample extra battery life on top of the 3-5 hours.

Of course, this comes at a cost. But at least the option is there, and it's not something that is going to alter the size and shape of the Vita itself.

More details on this PlayStation Vita external battery to come in the coming months leading up to launch.

    3-5 hours of being hunched over, neck bent, staring at a 4 inch wide screen sounds like plenty of time to me...
