Hello Co-Optimus my old friend, I've come to talk to you again. I come bearing bad news that came in a vision, whilst I was sleeping (that or from a Destructoid posting). PS Vita owners expecting Silent Hill: Book of Memories in May will have to have a rethink - it ain't happening. The first clue was when Amazon changed the game's release date from the already slipped date in May to October 31st. Now Konami have confirmed that gamers will have to wait several more months to get their greasy mitts on the 4 player online co-op title.
Ghost Recon Future Soldier is a week away, and we've got the launch trailer to prove it. Check out Mr. Tight T-Shirt as he informs the men about a "Rogue Spear" over London.

Believe it or not, there ARE other games coming out today besides Diablo 3. One of those is called Akai Katana, a side scrolling shooter from Japanese developer Cave and published by Rising Star Games for the Xbox 360.

Epic Games' Cliff Bleszinski, famous for his work on the Unreal Tournament and Gears of War series, has gone on record stating that many Japanese developers are leaving an opportunity on the table by skipping out on co-op and multiplayer modes in their games. While Bleszinski said he doesn't believe every game has to have a tacked on multiplayer experience, there's definitely room for it in titles because of the replayability it adds.
These days, just about every digital software platform under the sun offers giftcards at retail: Xbox Live, Playstation Network, and iTunes, for example.
