The next great console is here and believe it or not, it's a portable. What's that you say? Yes, I truly believe what we have here is one of the first portable consoles to date in the PlayStation Vita. Here's why.

We greatly enjoyed Dungeon Hunter: Alliance in its other forms on the PSN and iOS, but now that we've got another portable version how does this stack up with true console like controls? Lets find out.

Sometimes I love being wrong about things.  I thought for sure the delay of Aliens: Colonial Marines into the fall season would push Borderlands 2 from the same release window.  After all - two Gearbox titles in a short span of time seemed a bit too good to be true.  

We love when the Xbox Live Marketplace has weekly deals on co-op games because hey - who doesn't love saving a buck or four on additional content for your favorite co-op games? This week (from now until Feb. 27th), Xbox 360 owners can snag some Fable 3 DLC from 33%-45% off. This includes quest packs like Traitor's Keep (which we did an impressions piece on) and Understone. And if you've been on the fence about that dog breed DLC.... well, that's on sale, too.

As with almost all portable hardware releases these days, everybody wants to create laundry lists with their faults. At the top of most people’s list of 3DS grievances is the lack of a second analog stick/slider/whatever. This was also a problem for the PSP, but at least Sony could claim that they were treading new ground.

In about a month from now, new Tegra 3 devices will be announced, in which Borderlands 2 is said to make a grand appearance in the Tegra Zone.

A proper Twisted Metal game returns after an eleven year absence. The latest incarnation of Sweet Tooth and friends features a host of new deadly vehicles.  Has the series returned to glory? Find out in our Co-Op Review.

"What's a Co-Op Spotlight," you ask?  It's our way of bringing extra attention to major co-op releases on launch day, providing you with highlights from past articles, information on co-op features, and plans for our future coverage.

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception is getting a new map pack today called the Flashback Map Pack #2.  While this content update won't contain any new co-op modes like the last DLC, it will contain a bunch of remastered maps from Uncharted 2 playable in both competitive and co-op survival gameplay.   The maps - Plaza, Temple, Train Wreck, and Village - have all-new dynamic lighting effects, innovative particle effects and tons of other fresh technical polish thanks to the Uncharted 3 engine.

SPACE: The final frontier. These are the voyages of Saints Row: The Third. Its mission: To explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no gangsta has gone before. The latest mission based DLC for Saints Row: The Third blasts off today in the form of 'Gangstas in Space', priced at $6.99, or free for season pass holders.

Humans versus dinosaurs co-op games are almost as rare as real, live dinosaurs. There's Capcom's arcade classic Cadillacs and Dinosaurs and the most recent, slightly disappointing Turok, and that's it. That will change next month when indie developer Spiral Game Studios releases Orion: Dino Beatdown for PC. Up to 5 human players will be able to take on hoardes of terrible lizards in this fast-paced first-person shooter. Did I mention our side gets jetpacks and vehicles too?

After a long time waiting, Civilization V fans will soon have their patience rewarded in the form of the “Gods & Kings” expansion scheduled for release this Spring.
