Sony’s PSP is hitting the road for a cross country promo tour which will start Oct. 28 in Sacramento, CA and finish in New York City in December. Co-headlining the tour, which is also a concert called the PlayStation Presents Breed Love Odyssey Tour, are hip-hop artists Mos Def and Talib Kweli.

These two hip-hop artists, Sony said, will be joined “by an eclectic line-up of up-and-coming hip-hop artists including Pharoahe Monch, K’Naan and Jean Grae”. At each stop, fans will get the chance to play with the Playstation Portable and check out its multimedia abilities as well as games.

Now that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has arrived with a refreshed Prestige system, the drive to grind levels is again at an all-time high. While everything you do does earn you XP, they are not all created equal. Just like picking your Wildcards or Perks, earning XP as fast as possible takes a bit of thought and planning. If there's a piece of equipment you have your eye on at a high level, or just want to grind through some Prestige ranks as fast as possible, here are the fastest ways to grind XP in Black Ops 6.
Do your dailies

We'll get the most obvious tip out of the way first. Daily challenges are back and work just as they always have. Every 24 hours you will be given a handful of small optional tasks to complete for a heap of bonus XP. These can be things like getting Scorestreak kills, getting Point Blank Kills, and getting kills with a specific weapon type. Most daily challenges are worth 2,500 XP, which is already a nice bonus, but there is also a fourth one that can be worth between 3,000 and 5,000 additional XP. Each day you log on, you should prioritize your daily challenges.

For the 20th anniversary of Halo 2, Xbox is releasing many of the game's multiplayer maps in Halo Infinite on November 5.

For example, Beaver Canyon will be listed in the playlist as Beaver Creek. The developers have also tweaked the gameplay so it feels more like Halo 2, with higher jumps and friendly player collision, and added a new starting weapon: the MA5K Avenger.
