Review – Tron: Legacy

As expected the button control scheme will remain an option as well. Hopefully being able to st...

Somehow through all that is a finished film that delivers on pure entertainment value and could be the start of a successful franchise. (more…)...

Scheduled for a timed release alongside MLB 11: The Show is a limited edition DualShock 3 wireless controller. It will be available the same day as the game, March 8th, and sell for $54.99.
