Review: BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger
Last year, BlazBlue was one of the best and most surprising standouts to appear in the Summer. We got one of the best 2D fighting games in recent memory from a developer that’s much smaller than a powerhouse such as Capcom. But it should’ve been no surprise to fans of the genre that Arc Systems managed to piece together such an incredible fighter, after all these are the same people responsible for the Guilty Gear franchise. Well now, Arc System is also bringing their all new franchise to the PSP with a port of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger.

Preview: SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo 3
Sony is very much looking forward to the latest entry in the franchise, SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo 3. Yes, the third game in the Fireteam Bravo side of things, this PSP franchise seems to have slipped under the radar for a while. This is a shame, as some of the features seen here are even ignored in console titles. If you haven’t played a SOCOM title, it might be time to pay attention.

Review: Tekken 6 (PSP)
Like the home console versions, the game released for the PSP is really Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion. This small bit of information may not mean much at first, but, like Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection, the subtitle addition means more than just a new CG movie to watch.
