So you're known to fight dirty, huh? The kind who bets on his own ass and even fake defeat just to earn a big payout? Yeah, we didn't think so either. Best learn a thing or two from The Con, the first-party fighter that has schemed its way into stores today and will have you doing plenty of the aforementioned misdeeds and then some.


"With The Con, we have created a fresh new approach to the fighting genre on PSP with a gambling twist," said Susan Nourai, director, online and product marketing, Sony Computer Entertainment America. "The Con lets gamers experience what it's like to be an ex-con fighter in it for the money where the outcome is not based on wins or losses, but rather how much money you make from working the crowd."

We're guilty of taking part in this shameless gambling, we'll admit it, but it was only to get out of debt (as your ex-con fighter will find himself in), we swear! The Con is out now, but as always, feel free to graze over our preview from months back too see what we thought.
