Well I know what month is going to be tight financially. February 22nd is when the Playstation Vita will hit Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Australia, and (via Destructoid) the United states as well. The wifi only model will cost 250$ and the 3G model, the one you do not want, will cost 300$. No word as to what the international release dates for the games are but seeing as how Japan will supposedly have 26 games at launch I can only assume the international release will...

Finally the HD collection you have been waiting for is on its way. By “all of you” I mean “I” because I am super excited. Apparently during a Uncharted press conference in Olso, Justin Richmond let it slide that Jak and Daxter is going to have an HD collection. It will have the first three games in the series and will be released sometime in 2012. As of this writing Sony has made no comment so you can expect no more details until the games “official”...

Shank 2 aka Stabby McStabbins
You guys remember that game Shank right. It was the one that had an egregious amount of violence and bloodshed. It also had one of the most fun combat systems that I had played with in a long time. It had a button dedicated to pouncing on an enemy so you could stab them until the life left their body. Well it turns out that Shank 2 is on its way and the combat system has been rebuilt to offer more tight gameplay as well as hopefully more...
NBA Jam: On Fire Edition is as Hot as Red Lobster’s Biscuits
I used to own in NBA Jam for the Sega Genesis back in the day (1992-’93 basketball season to be exact). Any co-op player who came up against me was smacked down with my dungs by Charles Barkley on the Phoenix Suns or Patrick Ewing on the New York Knicks. But then I had to return my borrowed copy of the game and that was the end of my dunking days. I can own once again in the newly released NBA Jam: On Fire Edition available now for Xbox Live at 1200 Microsoft...

I Am Alive is Not Actually Dead
I AM ALIVE is well, alive. After the initial video released in 2008 showing what looked like a crazy game set after an earthquake, I AM ALIVE returns with a much different tone to it. The original teaser was more along the lines of just surviving a natural disaster while the newest footage seems more like a natural disaster has already occurred about a year ago. I looks like that because, well, it is that. According to the press release you play as an average Joe who was...
