At Sony's pre-Tokyo Game Show event yesterday, the Japanese behemoth made a number of announcements which outline the strategy for its Playstation brand. On first glance, the big news items appear to be the PS4's Japanese launch date of 22 February 2014 and the announcement of the revamped Vita, a lighter, thinner model which comes with one gigabyte of internal memory and an additional hour of battery life.
