Has it only been a week? The past several days seem much longer. The year isn't even a month old, but already some of the year's biggest game news has arrived. Last week it was the 3DS price and launch date. This week, it was the unveiling of Sony's Next Generation Portable (NGP), arguably the most powerful handheld device ever made. Flexing impressive CPU and GPU muscle, the device also has a bevy of other features PSP owners were clamoring for--including dual thumbsticks. GameSpot was there at its debut and has many news reports, previews, and videos firsthand from the event in Tokyo. The NGP debuted to much fanfare this week.

NEWS
A week chock-full of news began on a depressing note, with word that up to 350 people had been laid off from Disney Interactive Studios. Then came the less-than-welcome news that the Russian media had begun linking the tragic Moscow airport bombing with the "No Russian" scene from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
However, the majority of the week's headlines were dominated by a single positive development--the unveiling of Sony's Next Generation Portable, or NGP. The device premiered Thursday in Tokyo with the fanfare befitting the debut of a major platform. The handheld has a 16:9 5-inch OLED touch screen, a four-core ARM CPU, a PowerVR multicore GPU, a touch pad, gyroscopic control, Wi-Fi, 3G, and dual thumbsticks. It also will feature games from another of Sony's initiatives, PlayStation Suite, which aims to bring PlayStation One games to Android handhelds and tablets--and NGPs--worldwide.

PREVIEWS
With the headlines this week being dominated by Sony's NGP announcement, it only makes sense that the GameSpot previews team would follow up on that news with some hands-on impressions of the games for the new handheld. Sure enough, GameSpot's own Ricardo Torres was there to check out some of the new titles, including Uncharted and Little Deviants. But it wasn't all NGP this week, as GameSpot also posted previews of SOCOM 4 multiplayer, as well as a brand-new Q&A for Star Wars: The Old Republic.

REVIEWS
January and February used to be relatively quiet months for game releases, but that's no longer the case. Highlights just this month have included Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, Little Big Planet 2, and Dead Space 2. And as the reviews team shifts its attention toward next month, February promises to be even better with Killzone 3, Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and Bulletstorm. It's a great--though expensive--time to be a gamer, so be sure to check out reviews like those posted this week to ensure that you spend your money wisely.
