    Sony in Japan once again updated their Walkman lineup today, this time with the Walkman W series.

And second, Sony will roll out a special Metal Gear Solid - Peace Walker version.

    We've covered Metal Gear Solid 3D (whose first playable version was announced by Konami last week) twice so far, and now it's time to look at the game in more detail.

    One of the biggest titles of this year's Tokyo Game Show is certainly Metal Gear Solid - Peace Walker for the PSP. And it's all about multiplayer. I was able to play the game with a friend (in co-op mode) for about 15 minutes and it completely rocked (the game was playable for the first time). In fact, up to four players could play at the same time (and some TGS guests did).
