This week in releases is rather exceptional. Why you ask? Well because of one thing, the launch of Sony's next handheld the PS Vita. The Vita will be released this Wednesday, February 22. Although its release is this week several video game journalist sites have already reviewed the system and several games last week. Check out GameInfromer , IGN and Kotaku among others for their take on the console and the launch titles. Although the Vita maybe the highlight, there are great games being released. Asura's Wrath and Syndicate are both being released on the 21st with Alan Wake's American Nightmare being released on the 22nd. Additionally there will be a SSX demo dropping on the 21st. There's a lot to play this week, a new console, new IP, reboots and more. What are you most expecting this week? Are you getting a PS Vita?

It is January 31st, the starting bell has rung and we are now off into the 2012 game year. Final Fantasy XIII-2 and Soul Calibur V are just two of the games that mark the beginning of this delightful year. It only gets better from here, February is a big month (check out Gametrailers February release video ), and every month after opening with Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and The Darkness II. The highlight of February is the launch of the PlayStation Vita on February 22. Mass Effect 3 drops in March, Prototype 2 and The Witcher 2 drops in April while the end of the year doesn't get any slower with Resident Evil 6, BioShock Infinite and Metal Gear Rising Revengence. That's just the tip of the spear. There are still several titles that do not have confirmed release date as well as titles that have yet to be announced. Each month holds alot of possibilities and my wallet is already quivering at the mere thought of what those months may hold.

I want to start a weekly series of discussion post where a topic is picked and we have an open discussion of our thoughts and opinions. I have a few topics in mind but I open the floor to suggestions. In the video game industry, today's games usually have several modes unique to them. Two of those modes, single-player and multiplayer have become a norm for most game. Single-player is all about experiencing the story behind the game, watching beautifully rendered cut scenes and getting to know the main character(s). Multiplayer on the other hand is all about interacting with multiply players across the world while adhering to the game world and mechanics. There are a variety of different multiplayer game types, players may individually compete against two or more human contestants, work cooperatively to achieve a goal, or engage in a game type that incorporates any combination mentioned above. In the past few years the line between the two modes have started to blur, you can...

As we make our new year's resolutions and watch the sun rise on a new year it's time to take a look at the years upcoming games. In 2011 we saw it all in the video game industry and I have a feeling that 2012 will be similar for the industry. Like 2011, (see 2011 A Year in Video Game Review ) 2012 has games for everyone. New IPs like Lollipop Chainsaw and Anarchy Reigns, more HD Collections including Devil May Cry and Zone of the Ender and remakes with a twist, X-COM and Syndicate. The list goes on: Kingdoms of Amalur Aliens: Colonial Marines DMC The Darkness 2 SSX Asura's Wrath Final Fantasy XIII-X2 Mass Effect 3 Soul Calibur V Ghost Recon: Future Solider Dragons Dogma GTA V Prey 2 MG Rising: Revengeance Max Payne 3 Tomb Raider Borderland 2 Bioshock Infinite Transforme...

As 2011 begins to power down and 2012 lurks in the shadows, let’s take some time to look back at the games we’ve played this year. In 2010 I changed my Xbox status to say “2010 was a great year but 2011 will break all records” and I have to say that it did. The past year, the video game industry, was absolutely brilliant for both hardcore and casual gamers. It saw a plethora of great games that appealed to a broad audience. There were sequels, prequels, reboots and new IPs all vying for our time. Now I don’t want to go into all the games of this year but I would like mention a few that really made the year in gaming so spectacular. It all started with Isaac Clarke’s harrowing trek through Dead Space 2, a return to Netherrealm with Mortal Kombat, averting alien control in Crysis 2, choosing your side in Infamous 2, solving puzzles in Portal 2 and even catching them all with Pokemon Black & White. This short list opened the flood gates for games in the beginning of the year and as ...
