San Diego Studio announces Kill Strain, a 5v2v5 game for PS4
Kill Strain is a top-down, free-to-play competitive effort from San Diego Studio that was revealed during PlayStation Experience, and its beta will launch early next year on the PS4. A 5 vs. 2 vs. 5 play style will be used for the game, though it was noted that enemies in Kill Strain can quickly become your allies. Kill Strain plays out across a frozen territory where an experimental energy source is discovered and a potential outbreak's origin resides in the Strain. Players can work as mercenaries trying to contain the outbreak or a mutated creature focused on infecting others. Those interested can sign up for early access through the game's official site.
Sports Champions 2 demo finds the net on PSN later today
Sports Champions 2 shoots a demo onto PlayStation Network later today, with the full game scoring next week on October 30. Sony's motion-controlled follow-up includes five new sportsballs, namely tennis, golf, skiing, bowling and boxing. The demo releasing today throws you onto the court/fairway/slopes with the first three.The Move-supported sports-fest also introduces new features, as outlined by the above video. Beyond fine-tuning like simpler calibration and multiple user profiles, there's the new Party Play mode, more avatar customization, and improvements to Archery. While the game does let you use PS Move, the awesome Tron-like equipment in the video isn't compatible, probably because it's too awesome to exist.
MLB 12: The Show (PS3, PS Vita) review: Ahead in the count
Baseball is a polarizing sport. Either you love the drama of every at-bat, every line drive and double play, or you think it's boring as all get-out. It's a tough experience to translate into a game, especially in a manner that's, you know, something you'll want to keep playing.The MLB: The Show series by Sony's San Diego Studio has been the top baseball sim for several years and a solid exclusive to Sony's platforms. But this year is a big one: Sony's launched a new handheld, the PlayStation Vita, and it's debuted MLB 12: The Show on the platform, hoping to achieve parity between the handheld version and the PS3 game, the latter of which certainly hasn't been neglected this season.Once again, Sony's knocked it out of the park.%Gallery-151757%
Name the new ModNation Racers Vita game
Sony's launched a public request to name the upcoming PlayStation Vita version of ModNation Racers in a recent US PlayStation Blog post. Our first inclination was to suggest "The PlayStation Vita Version of ModNation Racers" in the allotted comments section, but the name lacked a certain pizazz we were hoping for. After thinking awhile longer, we figured out an absolutely perfect one: "ModNation Racers: Vita!" Take that, professional marketing guys!%Gallery-125158%
Sony's San Diego studio to focus on PSN games
Gamasutra is today reporting that Sony's San Diego studio has stopped developing full-blown PS2 and PS3 games. Instead the studio is concentrating on developing downloadable content for the PlayStation Store.The thirty-person development team has split into three teams of ten, with each group working on a separate title. Hopefully with a setup like this we can see some good quality downloadable games coming out at a decent pace. Sony seem to be putting a lot more emphasis on first party support for their online service, as opposed to Microsoft's Xbox Live service which is almost exclusively third party. If Sony keep delivering cheap, quality, bite-sized gaming on the PSN with games like Calling All Cars and Blast Factor then it will do a good job placating us while we wait for the major titles to be released.We are certainly looking forward to seeing what comes out of the San Diego studio in the future
