Players faithful to Sony’s PlayStation line of consoles should remember the PlayStation Portable, the company’s first take on the handheld gaming market, fairly well. While its sales were dim in comparison to the success of the Nintendo DS in the mid-2000s, the PSP packed an impressive amount of processing power, multimedia features, and a sizable library of beloved games in one package. The system was ahead of its time in many ways, and while Sony has more or less pulled out of the handheld gaming market due to the PlayStation Vita’s failure to reach a large audience, the company hasn’t forgotten about either console, or the games that came to life on them....

His wife, Debbie Dingell, is a member of the IWF, and she arranged the session, although she’s not present, because she’s an executive with General Motors....
This could have implications for global warming, because water in the soil plays an important role in storing carbon dioxide—the most important greenhouse gas. Increases in CO2 in the atmosphere are helping to warm the planet due to its heat-trapping effect.

First, he wears out his White House aides as he makes every decision–even the most obscure-during last-minute, late-night skull sessions on his mammoth economic plan.

Then he unveils his $700 billion deficit-reduction package, an artfully balanced and numerically slippery contraption with one central message: government, if it can only discipline itself and get the largest tax increase in history, stands ready to help you and your children....

Many are assuming that Final Fantasy 16 will feature a jump forward in time fairly early on in the story. The events shown in the trailer seem to leave new protagonist Clive in a much darker place than before, presumably after failing in his oath to protect his brother Joshua.

There’s no doubt the Nintendo Switch is a revolutionary console. It puts the power of a home console into a portable package, and it has been one of Nintendo’s biggest successes thanks to a stellar line-up of first-party games. At the same time, the Nintendo Switch has a hardware problem.
