There's never been a better time to get into the PlayStation "ecosystem," a word used several times in tonight's Sony GamesCom conference. It was at that conference that both the PlayStation Vita and the PlayStation 3 received price drops.

Anuman Interactive have today announced Garfield Kart, an arcade racer based on the famous comic book series. With eight racers to choose from and sixteen tracks to master, Garfield Kart will have you exploring alternative routes and talking no end of lasagne when it releases in October of this year.

The GTA Online trailer released last week was nothing short of amazing. What we saw in the 3 minute trailer however is just the beginning. The plan is to carefully mould it into a fully fledged MMO.

Sony have confirmed that they will be announcing the release date of the PS4 tomorrow at 6pm CET at Gamescom in Germany.

A forum at the Bioware Social site has revealed a new social game, Heroes of Dragon Age, may be announced in the near future. The forum, which is definitely set up for public access (with role playing and feedback sub-forums set up) is locked to posters, but is accessible at the link above.

It's been revealed that the Call of Duty: Ghosts unveiling was actually done on PC, with Xbox One controllers plugged in. With only three months before the launch of both the console and the game, some may be worried by this, although it's not really as bad as it sounds.

Street Fighter II: The World Warrior, Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting and Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers will all be coming to the Wii U Virtual Console this week, at least Nintendo seem to reckon so.

Call of Duty: Ghosts may just be coming to PlayStation Vita. Gamestop Spain have posted a listing for a Vita version of this year's biggest arcade shooter, listing it at 45 euros. Of course, this might be a mistake on their part - a tick box ticked where no tick should be. That isn't always the case though, and it wouldn't be the first time that a retailer has revealed a game ahead of its official announcement.

Excellent week this week for releases with two high profile games coming out in the next 7 days. Other releases include a couple 2D fighters and an 80s remake.
