Good news for Phantasy Star fans. Phantasy Star Online 2, the sequel to the legendary online RPG, will be completely free to play. That's right, even the game itself will be free. Sega has announced that the game will have a cash shop instead of monthly subscription fees. Sega has also announced that the game will also be coming out for the Vita in 2013, and that a special version will be made for iOS and Android platforms. There is no word as to when these mobile versions will be released. Sega will be holding a closed beta for Japanese players sometime in the coming months, and the final version of the game will be released soon after. A North American release has not been announced yet. Check back for more PSO2 news!

Earlier this week, Capcom announced that they are developing a new sequel to the ever popular Ace Attorney series. There are little to no details on this game, so stick around until we learn more info. It can be safely assumed, however, that this game will be released for the 3DS, as all of the Ace Attorney games have been developed for Nintendo handhelds. The other big announcement is that Capcom is developing HD versions of the first three Ace Attorney games for iOS and Android devices. Finally, Capcom shows Android some love!

I can say that once these games are released, you'd be doing yourself a great service if you get them. The Ace Attorney games have some great stories and charming characters, and you're missing out on a lot if you haven't played them yet.

I've been wondering sometimes, and you probably should randomly wonder about this: where have all those clean, working water fountains on the city streets gone?

So we're all excited about the official unveiling of the Xperia play, Sony Ericson's new PSP phone. For all of you still left in the dark about the capabilities of this system, I'm more than happy to hand you a light after the jump.

Also known as the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, now you can play commercial games on a phone. The official unveiling is announced to be on February 13th @ 18:00 GMT (That would be 1PM to our East Coast readers) on Sony Ericsson's Facebook. Of course, there are quite a few concerns that anyone who decides on buying this phone should be worried about, such as battery life, gaming performance, as well as its original function as a phone. Not to mention that it lacks the keyboard that the Sony Ericsson Xperia has.
