Telltale Games swept many of the gaming awards at the end of 2012, seducing audiences while breaking their hearts with the brutal, beautiful The Walking Dead. People have been chomping at the bit to get more of the story since last fall, when Episode 5 of the series released on consoles, PC, and mobile. Telltale has been willing to say that Season 2 is coming along, but details have been scarce. Surprises abound at E3, though, and Sony began their press conference with a good one: the reveal of a sidestory coming for PS Vita, The Walking Dead: 400 Days.

Sony Computer Entertainment’s Jack Tretton didn’t announce anything more than the title, but he did say that Walking Dead: 400 Days would be available for the PS Vita sometime during summer 2013 alongside the rest of the series. To date, The Walking Dead has only been available on Sony’s home console, PlayStation 3.

3 new PS Plus games you should play this weekend (November 22-24)

The protagonists of GTA V pose for the camera.

This week, we finally got a massive batch of new games added to the PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra game catalogs. It's a fantastic bunch of titles, thanks to the inclusion of some AAA heavy hitters like Grand Theft Auto V, as well as great retro classics, and even some standout indies. As there's a wealth of games to choose from, you might be having some trouble deciding which ones to check out first. I'd start with any of these three titles, which are all among the best games on PS Plus.
Grand Theft Auto V

Grand Theft Auto V needs little introduction, as it's one of the most iconic and bestselling video games ever. If you haven't played it before, know that this is one of the most entertaining open-world games ever made, with a strong main story about three men drawn back into a life of crime. On top of that, there's its nearly infinite online mode. Whether you're concerned with actually completing missions or just want to drive around and mess with the citizens of Los Santos, GTA V offers some of the most fun sandbox gaming available. Grand Theft Auto VI is poised to release sometime in 2025, so now is the perfect time to revisit the last GTA title to better understand the high bar GTA 6 and every other future release from Rockstar Games will need to live up to.
