What does the PlayStation Vita 2 look like? The spark of the current crop of rumours all come from a patent application design that was released on the Japanese website Esuteru recently. It outlines a portable device with two controller pods on either side of the screen, replete with the normal PlayStation layout of four main action buttons, two joysticks, and a D-pad. The pods also boast the twin bumper/trigger arrangements found on the PS4 dual-shock 4 contollers....
But the president isn’t quite off the hook. Reno is still under pressure from her own FBI director, Louis Freeh, to sic a special prosecutor on the whole affair, and the congressional Republicans are still trying to draw blood.
