Watch this Wednesday – Kid Stood Right Up, Survived the Apocalypse

This is one of the first teasers we ever saw from The Last of Us, the upcoming Sony game that is sure to be a game of the year nominee.

P.S. I love you – How Sony Won Me Over With the PlayStation 4

I’ve always been a diehard Microsoft fan; ever since the day I got my Xbox. I’d never even considered the thought of getting a PlayStation 3 up until Journey came out and our own Chris Lock loved it, but even then, I was still a huge Microsoft fan boy. I’ve never had a doubt in my mind that the PlayStation 4 would suck and I’d never buy one. Nope. Not me. Not in a million years. That’s why it’s so hard for me to come out and say this. I really want a PlayStation...
