The world stage, bite-sized

I found it really hard to believe that the PSP has passed its fifth birthday, it feels more like it should be three or four. Throughout all the criticism of the unit, the UMD format and the PSPGo revision (which, in my opinion, was a major misstep), Sony has been able to keep the mighty [ READ MORE ]

Online World Cup

MLB Showdown: Small Ball

Today we take a look at the pocket size versions of MLB 10: The Show and MLB 2K10, both which made their way onto Sony’s PSP this season.
