Great news for PlayStation Vita owners who also own Escape Plan, one of the best launch titles of the bunch, in my opinion. Coming April 10 is a new patch that will fix some things, according to the developers in a post on the PlayStation Blog: Escape Plan Patch 1.01 is a meaty new addition, with a host of...

Escape Plan is a gorgeous 2D platform puzzler with adorable characters, a whimsical yet moody soundtrack, and a set design equal parts industrial, dystopic and Tim Burton-esque. This game makes the best use of the Playstation Vita touchscreen I’ve seen, with both front and back taps internally...

The 2800 return, hell-bent on destroying the Federation, its allies and its enemies alike. Check out the new...
