Digital board games can be tons of fun, especially when they're cooperative. That's what's in store for Beacon Patrol from Shapes and Dreams and Assemble Entertainment. Based on the real-life board game by Torben Ratzlaff, Beacon Patrol has players work together to explore a map and create a network of coastal paths, all by placing tiles. It's a lot like Carcassonne and Kingdomino, but set on the high seas. The upcoming Steam version will support 4-player local co-op, and there's a single-player demo right now.

Valve has added a new feature to their Steam Client that is a great boon to all us co-op fans out there. Thanks to "Remote Play Together," you can now play couch co-op games with friends online. Best of all, only one person has to actually own the game.

The notes for the PlayStation 4's next big update, 3.5, were posted on the PS Blog earlier this week. Alongside some new social features, like being able to appear offline or being able to schedule times for a party to be created, the biggest part of this reveal was that "Remote Play" functionality will be extending to the PC and Mac in the near future. That's a... well, that's an interesting thing.

Who knew that a system announced less than two days ago would be so insanely popular, let along being sold out completely. Over on Amazon Japan, the PlayStation Vita TV has sold out within a single day’s time, grabbing both consumer and developer attention alike.

During a pre-TGS press conference Sony revealed the new PS Vita TV.  This small piece of hardware lets you play Vita games, PSOne Classics, and PSP games on your television - all with a DualShock 3 controller.
