Gears of War Wednesday Banner

“You know the drill soldier! The battle begins at 20:00, sharp, over the fabled battlegrounds of Xbox LIVE! Keep those Lancers revving and keen, but whatever you do don’t tear into the enemy until you see the whites of their eyes… on the ground!

Ha! I just made that one up right here on the spot - good one, wasn’t it?

I said, good one, wasn’t it?

Nervous laughter, now that’s what I like to hear! There’s no shame in being nervous before a big battle, soldiers, that Gears of War 3 videogame will break even the steeliest of nerve - doesn’t matter if you’re a veteran or an amateur.

That’s why we play… on Gears of War Wednesday.”

With the PS Vita, however, AR games and gaming has a fresh new chance at becoming prolific, so this Question of the Day asks:

Are you interested in the PS Vita’s Augmented Reality capabilities?

There have been a couple of minor firmware updates since the Vita’s Japanese launch, but today’s update (version 1.60) is the most significant thus far.

The co-op missions in Uncharted 3 are some of my favourite, team work at its best in some really awesome adventures with Drake and his crew.
