PlayStation Vita owners looking for a free video fix no longer have to dig through YouTube -- after a long wait, Crackle has launched its service on Sony's handheld. Much like on other devices, Vita owners can now stream no-cost movies, TV shows and shorts, whether they come from Crackle itself or major studios. You don't need an account unless you're keen to sync your viewing list across multiple platforms. If you're the sort of gamer who'd watch Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee after a round of Tearaway, you can visit the new content portal today.

A new PlayStation 3 bundle featuring Lego The Hobbit is heading stateside this spring, Sony has announced.
Detailed on the US PlayStation Blog, the bundle will pack a 500 GB PS3 and a copy of the upcoming Lego title covering Peter Jackson's first two films in The Hobbit trilogy for $269.
The lowest a 500 GB PS3 package currently runs for is $299 – such as the bundles with God of War, Grand Theft Auto V, and The Last of Us.
Though no release window beyond the impending spring season was mentioned, it's worth nothing that Lego The Hobbit itself is set to launch April 8th on 3DS, PS Vita, PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Wii U.

Sony further explained that approximately 1,000 of those individuals will be laid off by the end of 2014.
"While these moves were extremely tough, they were absolutely necessary to position us in the best possible place for future growth," Sony Electronics president and COO Mike Fasulo stated.
"I am entirely confident in our ability to turn the business around, in achieving our preferred future, and continue building on our flawless commitment to customer loyalty through the complete entertainment experience only Sony can offer."

SCEE's Agostino Simonetta discusses the console's networking and sharing capabilities
During the PlayStation Open Day Sony discussed some interesting PS4 features developers can take advantage of when it comes to the hardware's networking and streaming capabilities.
SCEE's Agostino Simonetta said developers are able to customise their games' Live Areas, the dedicated game pages on the PS4 interface. Tiles on these Live Areas are HTML5 and JavaScript-based, meaning developers can quickly and easily change what each one displays, whether it's a video or a link to the store.
Developers can also use these to advertise new DLC, cross-promote other titles they have released and also post the latest news from their website or blog, and link back to the browser.
Simonetta also explained that developers are able to write their own mini apps in JavaScript or HTML5 and enter them into a tile, as well as display stats from the game such as the number headshots or the amount of times a specific fighting move has been used.
"Maybe your game has new DLC, or maybe you want to post the latest news from the community website or blog. Or maybe you run a server and run challenges and you want to surface those, or maybe it's a video. You can change those on a daily basis [without consulting Sony]," he said.
"If you have your own servers, you can have those talk to the PlayStation server. If you're tracking data, you can surface those stats on the boxes."
Streaming content
With game broadcasting becoming increasingly popular thanks to platforms like Twitch, Sony has integrated streaming into the Ps4, and to great success.
As has previously been announced, Simonetta said developers can use streaming to allow spectators to interact with the game being broadcast. He offered examples such as giving the player ammunition or a health pack during gameplay.
Developers can also take advantage of streaming in other ways, and can stream a title straight from their dev kit. Simonetta said this could be an interesting way to gain publicity for a new title while it's still in development.
Simonetta also explained that developers can encourage users to share videos and images when not streaming by sending a message if they break a record in the game, such as the fastest laptime in the world on a racing title.
"This is another way to help you get your title discovered without having to invest anything," said Simonetta.

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy 13 received a few new pieces of downloadable content today, one of which is the previously-revealed Japanese voice pack. Announced in November 2013, the voice pack costs $3.99 (£3.19/3.99 euros) and adds lip-syncing adjustments to match the game's Japanese voice overs.
Additionally, players can pick up three new sets of costumes and equipment, each set available for $3.99 (£3.19/3.99 euros). The three pieces of DLC – dubbed Ultimate Savior, Moogle Lover and Divine Wear – include a weapon, shield, adornment and garb. Players can buy all three in the premium collection pack for $9.99 (£7.99/9.99 euros), and can also pick up five newLightning Returns themes on PS3 for $1.99 (£1.19/1.49 euros) and avatar items on Xbox 360 for $3.99 (£3.19/3.99 euros).

Housemarque is bringing the twin-stick zombie massacre of Dead Nation to the PS4, according to Sony Computer Entertainment Asia. The Hong Kong PlayStation Blog lists the top-down shooter in a new Apocalypse Edition for the PS4, and says it'll be part of March's PlayStation Plus' freebies for the region.
Housemarque announced an outsourced Vita port of the PS3 game last year, but this is the first word of it coming to the PS4. Interestingly, Korea's classification board published new Dead Nation ratings today for PS4 and Vita, suggesting the two versions could be released side-by-side. We've reached out to Housemarque to find out what's up.
The PS4 launch saw the Finnish studio bring its intense brand of twin-stick action to the new console with Resogun - a PS Plus game itself - but another offering wouldn't hurt. Well, it would hurt the zombies, but they deserve it. Back in 2010, former Joystiq-er Andrew Yoon shelled out a perfect five stars toDead Nation, lauding its "suffocatingly dense" swarms of undead and its strategically sound local and online co-op.

Hollywood legend Harold Ramis passed away this week and the few folks left at Criterion Games are going full stream by honoring him with a free car pack inBurnout Paradise.
The "Legendary Cars" pack features homages of iconic whips from Knight Rider, The Dukes of Hazzard, Back to the Future and, of course, Ghostbusters. These aren't exact replicas of the cars in question, but rather eerily-close copies. The car pack is available as a free download on both Xbox 360 and PS3 today.
Burnout Paradise, the last entry in Criterion's lauded arcade-inspired racing series, takes place in Paradise City and gives racers free rein of an open-world metropolis. Initially, the game only featured cars, but Criterion's post-launch diligence introduced motorcycles and a completely new island to explore.

 Despite its eye-catching focus on procreation, the upcoming Conception 2: Children of the Seven Stars is a relatively straightforward roleplaying game. For proof, you need look no further than this latest batch of screenshots issued by publisher Atlus.
The gallery below contains eight images, each depicting one of the game's 30 character classes. The Archer is typical roleplaying game fare, but Conception 2also introduces more unique classes. The Diva uses music to aid friends and debuff enemies while also reviving the dead, while the Gun Saint is essentially a high-fantasy paladin, only with a big gun in lieu of a sword.
Conception 2 is slated to debut on the Vita and 3DS handhelds on April 15. More details on the game and its characters can be found at the Conception 2website.

Lucas Pope, creator of border-crossing management game Papers, Please, has expressed interest in a PS Vita port, but is unsure if he should handle the port himself or hand it over to a third-party studio.
"Up until now, I've been the only guy who's ever touched the source code or anything related to the game. And that's just kind of a control issue," Pope toldVG247. "For a Vita version, I'm 50 percent I want to do it myself and 50 percent I should just hand it off to somebody who knows what they're doing and can take it over for me." Last year, Sony formed a third-party production divisionwhose chief responsibility is facilitating ports.
"I do want to do a Vita version, but the thing is there's a lot of kind of interesting UI challenges to make it work well on Vita: much smaller screen, much smaller hit targets. So that kind of stuff interests me to try to figure out how to make it work well on Vita," Pope said. "So that's the part of me that wants to be really involved in the port, but the other part is like, 'I got to do something else, I got to move onto something else' so I haven't really decided what to do there."
In Papers, Please, players assume the role of an immigration worker checking passports at a border checkpoint for the fictional communist country of Arstotzka. Papers, Please made its debut last year on PC and Mac; a Linux port launched earlier this month.

The PlayStation 4 sold 322,083 units across its opening weekend in Japan, according to numbers published this morning by Famitsu. The console hit the country's retail shelves last week, some three months after launching across North America and Europe.
The PS4's launch in Japan only marginally exceeds the Wii U's - Nintendo's system achieved 308,570 sales in its first two days - but it's a huge step up from the corresponding 88,400 sales of the PS3 launch. Siliconera notes that, according to Famitsu's archives, the PS2 shifted a whopping 630,552 systems when it launched in Japan just under 14 years ago.
Last week, Sony announced it's sold more than 5.3 million PS4 systems since the Western launch in November 2013, meaning the console's already surpassed fiscal goals. We'll hear more about how Japan factors into the total sales in the coming months, not least in May when the company's expected to announce its financial results for the fiscal year.

Seven scenes have been removed from the console versions of South Park: The Stick of Truth in the EMEA region, which covers the not so small continents and areas of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. That's in addition to the game'scensorship in Australia, where the often prominent Classification Board deemed certain scenes had to be modified if the Obsidian RPG was to be rated for sale.
As BT.com spotted, Ubisoft sent out a document to publications this week that confirmed 7 scenes, each around 20 seconds long, have been removed from the EMEA console versions of The Stick of Truth. As you can imagine given the often controversial nature of the TV show the game is based on, the scenes areNSFW reading, and some readers may be sensitive to their descriptions. We've included those descriptions below the break.

"Kept you waiting, huh?" whispered Konami, before dropping a collection of news bombs this morning. For starters, the company announced a price cut to the physical PS4 and Xbox One versions of Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes. Rather than costing $40, the two consoles' retail versions are now priced at $30. The company says it wants to "provide as many people as possible an opportunity" to play the game - awwwwwwww.
Other versions of Ground Zeroes remain at the same price; you can check out the game's still highly-convoluted pricing structure here. Incidentally, the price cut is matched in the UK, where PS4 and Xbox One retail versions will set Brits back £30.
In addition, Konami confirmed the previously speculated inclusion of Phantom Pain DLC with early purchases of Ground Zeroes. The codes, which include additional staff to utilize in Big Boss' Mother Base headquarters, which apparently plays a "central role" in The Phantom Pain, are available in the first batch of retail copies and for an undisclosed "limited" amount of time with download versions. In case you've been living under a rock or with bandages wrapped around your ears, MGS5: Ground Zeroes is being billed as the prologue chapter to MGS5: The Phantom Pain.
If you'd rather wait before you Snake, the good news is all copies of Ground Zeroes have some integration with the Mother Base in The Phantom Pain. The POWs and VIPs you rescue in the prologue will carry over to the follow-up, as will character skins you unlock.
Finally, it wouldn't be Metal Gear without some peripheral capers, and if you so choose you can download a free second-screen "iDroid" app on iOS and Android to use with the game. The app, which is integrated into SmartGlass for Xbox, lets you view maps, play cassettes you discover, and summon air support in the game ... Oh, the game! Yes, the small matter of Ground Zeroes itself arrives on March 18 for PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PS3.

Anyway, these funcs seem to crash on a PSP when used with a non-open font
so there's not a ton of risk here.

* Merge pull request #5546 from chinhodado/fixes
