Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plusis coming to the PlayStation Vita next month at system launch, on February 22. More launch games? My wallet is crying already. Today we have the game’s box art and new screen shots, fresh from Tecmo Koei. In the screenshots you’ll see that they’ve done a fine job of squeezing down the original PS3 game for Sony’s new portable. What you won’t see is how this remake uses all of the new input controls that Vita provides....

Stay banned bros It looks like theTwitch account of popular content creator PewDiePiehas been banned yet again. The ban comes while Felix “PewDiePie” Kjellberg wasn’t actively streaming on his Twitch account, but rather hosting a never-ending loop of his previous 2017 livestream videos. Given the fact that PewDiePie wasn’t actually live-streaming, there’s no indication as to what the actual ban is for. Furthermore, Twitch typically doesn’t comment on account suspensions or terminations, so unless PewDiePie himself says anything about the ban, it’s unlikely we will know what triggered it....

The original has a very basic melody, so Cris did what any decent artist would do and went hog wild, giving us a little more bang for our proverbial buck....

With Forza and Halo sound modes I don’t have the best history with sound bars. I had this bigger JBL one that sounded nice, but it stopped working. Kaput. I tried to replace it with one of Sony’s budget models, but that one sounded so bad that I laughed at it. And I returned it. I ended up with a discounted Samsung model that you’d probably find on the shelves of any electronics store right now....

Anchors in the Drift When I hear “5th Cell,” my mind goes to the good times I spent with 2008’s action-tower defenseLock’s Questor 2009’s creative puzzle platformerScribblenauts. Those were cute, inventive 2D games. I definitely don’t think ofHybrid, whose 3D cover-based shooting I had forgotten about entirely until seeing this new project. 5th Cell is continuing inHybrid‘s tradition of making run-of-the-mill looking games with one neat twist. Today, the developer announced its free-to-play action-RPGAnchors in the Drift....

Almost there Mayors.” This functionality was previously deemed impossible given the waySimCitywas made, something you’re able to’t not poke fun at time and time again when talking about this subject. Moving away from always-online gameplay has been asix-month-plus endeavor, requiring reworks of “things that seem trivial, like the way that cities are saved and loaded....

Remember that Vita game we told you about? Soul Sacrifice? Anofficial teaser site went upovernight, and with it comes comes a new teaser trailer and English subtitles. Thanks for thinking of us, Sony! “It’s not about cooperation.” “It’s about fighting shoulder to shoulder.” The video is just a little tease, showing only artwork and no gameplay, but it does say that you can be a “witness to the disclosure” on May 10, at 15:00 (Japan time)....
