PlayStation Around The Web: What We Read

With Tokyo Game Show 2012 now in the books, the major gaming shows and conferences season has come to an end. There’s only one thing left to do: play the games we’ve been seeing since E3 (or earlier). The big new release weeks are underway; you’ll see the full list for September 25th in a few hours with this week’s The Drop. As far as TGS coverage goes, I’ve linked out to a number of stories below.
