Sony is really starting to push the PlayStation Move advertising, and Sony Manager of EVERYTHING Kevin Butler has come out with yet another “It only does Everything” ad, this time for the motion capturing device.
If you can’t appreciate this ad, you’re dead inside.
In a recent interview with Jason Green of Black Rock Studios, we learn some new details about Disney Interactive’s upcoming title Split/Second.
One of the biggest concerns with Split/Second is that the game will get boring quickly. From what we already know about the title, the premise is to race other cars and blow things up. Which, right there, is a pretty solid concept as it is. However, it does raise the question “How many times can you blow the same things up before you get bored?” Check out Jason’s answers to these important questions after the jump. read this entry »

According to Official PlayStation Magazine, a “Massive Sequel” will be announced in next month’s issue. Luckily, OPM has revealed a significant clue. The “Massive Sequel” is a racing game that may challenge GT5’s racing crown.
Straight from OPM, “We’ve seen a top-secret driving game that may threaten GT5’s racing crown. More next month – be excited.”

Anyone who has been a fan of gaming for a while now is more than familiar with Insomniac Games, long time supporters of the PlayStation formats and creators of famous franchises such as Spyro the Dragon and Ratchet and Clank. If certain rumours are to be believed though, this exclusive support may soon come to an end.
A “trusted source” who spoke to IGN anonymously during GDC claims that the company intends to go multi-platform.
Existing franchise are, as far as we know, locked into exclusivity on the PS3 for now, but this does not stop the company from creating a new franchise for the other existing consoles, the Xbox 360 and the Wii.
Insomniac is refusing to comment on this rumour for the time being, but we’ll let you know if something comes of it. I personally would be extremely surprised if this turned out to be true.
Max Schaefer, CEO of Runic games, the developers behind PC Action RPG Torchlight, said that the game may be headed to consoles and that a “serious effort” is being put into the idea.
“We’re going to put some serious effort into it — pretty quick — getting ‘Torchlight’ onto consoles,” Schaefer said.
“There’s a lot of really cool things about the console world, too, that would work well with our game.”
For fans of Diablo and Diablo-type games, Torchlight is an excellent addition to the genre, especially since Diablo III won’t be seen on PC for at least another hundred years or so.
In what most people would believe is a sign of the Apocalypse, Lady Gaga is not only dominating mainstream media, but now making her way into video games. First it was LIPS, and now she’ll be appearing in a four-song DLC pack for Rock Band and Rock Band 2 on March 16th.
Not only that, we also have The Subways, Mute Math, 3 Doors Down, and the notorious Eric Cartman with his own version of “Poker Face” as seen on South Park.
Full list of releases after the cut.

You might remember this trailer for Deus Ex 3, which didn’t really tell us much of anything about the game. In fact, there’s no gameplay in the video. There’s really nothing in the video at all, except for some abstract… Stuff.
Well, we’ve got a new trailer for you, which shows off a little more than “stuff”.
Unfortunately, we don’t get to see any combat in this trailer, either. But we do get to see what appears to be the main character having some sort of trippy, angelic dream where he flies into the sun and burns.
It’s unclear whether or not you’ll be playing as JC Denton or another clone of him like the previous titles, but the likeness is uncanny, so I feel it’s a safe bet that you play as another clone again.
We’ve got some screenshots and the new trailer after the jump.
With Sony’s many, many announcements covering the Playstation Move, we’re seeing more new titles being announced. One of the most recent announcements to come out of the GDC is a title called Slider.
We don’t know much about this title yet, other than the fact that it allows one to recreate my favorite fantasy: downhill office chair racing. We’ve got the few details we know after the jump. read this entry »
Well, here it is, folks. The next single-band installment from Harmonix, Green Day: Rock Band, has been announced for a worldwide release of June 8th, 2010 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii consoles.

Sony’s motion controller, PlayStation Move was formally announced today, and with it details are beginning to slowly surface. PlayStation Move will indeed launch this fall and with it, the support of over thirty-six publishers.

Got scared, didn’t you? Don’t worry, Sony announced during their GDC conference that Gran Turismo 5 will indeed release this year.
Unfortunately, a specific release date was not announced. On the bright side, it’s releasing this year. High-five? Anyone?
You could always play Forza 3.
Nah, you’re right, waiting’s better.
There you have it, folks. At the Sony segment of the GDC, Sony has officially given “Arc” a name – The PlayStation Move.
Seems kind of like an obvious name for a motion controller, but I suppose it also succinctly explains its purpose.
The PlayStation Move will come bundled with a PlayStation Eye, a game and the controller itself for under $100.
In addition, PS3 games LittleBigPlanet and Resident Evil 5 have been confirmed to support Move functionality. A new title, Sports Champion, will feature several sports-related mini-games for use with the PlayStation Move.
Very much looking forward to Microsoft’s motion controller, too! Everyone stay tuned for Microsoft’s This Camera Tracks Your Movements!
