Ghost Recon: Future Soldier Video - You Will Believe in Ghosts

In Ghost Recon: Future Soldier you'll take this ghost technology for granted, but today's soldiers have no such equipment, as shown in this new trailer presented by former Navy Seal Richard 'Mack' Machowicz.

Jordan Mechner's Decided to Remake Karateka

There’s always reason to be nervous when the terms “remake,” “reboot,” or “reenvisioning” come up, but after seeing what Prince of Persia creator Jordan Mechner did with Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, the acclaimed designer has certainly earned our trust.

FIFA Soccer, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, F1 2011, and Virtua Tennis 4: World Tour are, dollar for dollar, the exact same price on the PlayStation Store as they are at, say, GameStop or Amazon. Coinciding with Vita’s early release for those who pre-ordered bundles, more Vita games are now in the PlayStation Store. This follows up on Sony’s promise that most, if not all, Vita games would be available for purchase in digital and retail forms. Of course, many Vita games are cheaper digitally. Uncharted:...
