PlayStation Around The Web: What We Read

Videogames are great – I’m sure we can all agree on that, and there are a couple dozen stories below to support that.

But it’s Week 1 of the NFL, so I’ll understand if you don’t get a ton of gaming in this weekend. BTW, this is probably a good time to remind those of you who root for teams in other cities, that DIRECTV NFL Sunday Ticket is back on PS3 this year. As a Philadelphia Eagles fan in California, I’m not just a pitchman, I’m also a client. And as a fantasy football devotee, I do love that Red Zone channel.

Before kickoff, if you only have time to read one story, head on over to the Borderlands 2 skill tree calculator. My Siren will own.

E-A-G-L-E-S!
