Game-bit of the day 430: Night Trap (Sega CD 32x)

Finds 891: Legend of Heroes Trails of Cold Steel (PSvita)

Here we keep the PSVita additions coming. This game is another one of those classic old school RPGs that RPG fans can never get enough of. Best of all, it's the collector's edition. You know how much I love those right? ...

Finds 890: Playstation TV

This is a nice little gadget that lets you play PSvita games on your big screen TV. The problem with it is that it's not compatible with all PSvita games. It's one of those accessories that completely failed. I still think it's pretty cool. You can also use it to stream your...

Finds 888: Legend of Legacy (3DS)

Another one of those RPGs with a lot to offer. The box art is really cute and the game itself is pretty fun although not the best I've played lately. This is still a good game to pick up.  ...

Finds 887: Xenoblade Chronicles Collector's Edition (WiiU)

Yu-gi-oh! Card of the Week 043: Santa Claws
