http://www.destructoid.com/crytek-ps-vita-might-launch-too-late-to-succeed-206108.phtml Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli has praised the PlayStation Vita as a piece of technology, but divulged his belief that it may be "too late" for Sony to stand up against the rising tide of mobile gaming and carve out its own sizable niche.

http://www.destructoid.com/doritos-says-female-online-gamers-prefer-games-to-sex-206157.phtml In what can only be described as hilarious news, Doritos -- yes, the people who make pointy snacks -- conducted a survey to reveal that women who play online games prefer clicking mice to getting a firm one right up themselves. In other words, they like games more than sex. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/esrb-confirms-aliens-infestation-206154.phtml Aliens: Infestation has been properly outed by the ESRB. We first heard about it when it was revealed as a canceled project, before the OFLC revealed its name. Since then, SEGA has refused to officially announce the WayForward-developed DS shooter, but the ESRB seems quite sure it's happening. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/ds-outsold-3ds-206159.phtml The 3DS is having a hard time living up to the success of its predecessor, the Nintendo DS. If you need evidence of that, then look no further than last month's North American sales numbers. According to those, the DS is still outshining Nintendo's successor. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/do-this-watch-a-launch-trailer-for-the-beautiful-bastion-206173.phtml Supergiant Games' first title, Bastion, hits Xbox Live Arcade next week, on July 20. It's going to cost 1200 MS Points, and based on what I've seen and played, will be totally worth the price. (Nick Chester)
http://www.destructoid.com/metro-last-light-gets-first-public-video-demonstration-206085.phtml THQ has started to release the Metro: Last Light gameplay demo is kindly showed us behind closed doors at E3 this year. I say "started" because it's been broken into three parts and is getting drip-fed to the Internet. Because that's not annoying at all. (Jim Sterling)
