Augmented Reality on the PS Vita looks surprisingly good

November 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

No sooner do I get through reading that Hong Kong has gone crazy for PlayStation Vita pre-orders than I stumble across this video.

Before Rabbids – the Rayman Origins

November 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

They had crazy, cute and fun party games that were easy to pick up, laugh at and either put down when the beer ran out or get obsessed by a play all night. That’s gaming perfection. The Rabbids, though, are a spin-off. They came […]
