PSP Game News: Angry Birds Lets You Kill Pigs On Facebook This Valentine’s Day
Posted by G4TV on Jan 26, 2012 | Leave a Comment
Who needs a romantic, candlelit dinner on Valentine’s Day when you can instead spend hours hurling egg-shaped birds at elaborate, pig-protecting constructions with the intention of crushing those helpless farm animals into gooey bits of pork? Okay, dumb question. But hey, Angry Birds is popular and it’s coming to Facebook on Valentine’s Day, also known as February 14.
Rovio CEO Peter Vesterbacka confirmed the news to Penn Olson (via Gamasutra), revealing that the company is planning...

Vita Will Allow Multiple PSN Accounts
Posted by IGN on Dec 08, 2011 | Leave a Comment
Earlier this week, reports indicated that each PlayStation Vita would only support one PSN ID, and that a factory reset would be required to swap accounts. Sony has now clarified, explaining that each account will be bonded to a memory card, not a system.
Players who want to use multiple accounts will have the option of doing so, but each account will need to be bonded to its own card. A factory reset is only required if you want to use multiple accounts but only have one memory card.
“Your...
ModNation Racers: Bring on the Vita
Posted by IGN on Dec 07, 2011 | Leave a Comment
I didn’t play ModNation Racers enough. When it first came out, it had everything I could have wanted in a kart racer: fun driving, customizable karts, and a ton of creation tools for building my own tracks. But after a day of discouragement racing a vicious rival in story mode, I walked away. I had the intention of coming back, but I never did.
ModNation Racers: Road Trip feels like a second chance. The easy, rewarding driving returns, along with all the creation modes from the original. These...

When I first heard that Sound Shapes, a PlayStation Vita exclusive, came from the minds behind Everyday Shooter, my expectations for it immediately changed. Everyday Shooter merged music and visuals together in the same way Rez did before it. Sound Shapes fully embraces its musical roots, fusing the act of jumping through a world directly into the topography of a song. And Sound Shapes comes equipped with a full set of tools that deliver some of the most intuitive music creation I’ve seen in...
