The 3rd Birthday Celebrating European Release
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010

Square Enix has recently let slip that The 3rd Birthday will be releasing in Europe, though no timetable has been giving. This is great news for PSP owners in Europe as the game was originally known only for US and Japanese gamers. The 3rd Birthday is a spin-off from the Parasite Eve series and sees the return of Aya Brea to the scene, but this time she returns in a shooter game and not a survival horror as the previous two titles were.

PSOne Classics Revisited: Final Fantasy Tactics
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010

Every week when the PlayStation Store updates we always take a gander at what, if any, new PSOne classic that have been added. Being a so-called “old-school gamer”, I’m always on the lookout for any favorites from my past. Not only are these ‘classics’ a hell of a deal, but many of them are extremely rare to actually find in disc form.
