SCEA fills months-vacant top PR slot. Salut!
After Molly Smith jumped ship back in the beginning of June, we wondered who Sony would tap to lead their foundering PR efforts. As of yesterday (three months after Molly's departure) they've finally got their man: Dave Karraker, former PR chief for brands including Stolichnaya, Maker's Mark, Kahlua, Beefeater, and Courvoisier. Let's hope that he got a nice parting gift from his previous employer, because he's going to need a stiff drink (or three) to sort out the shambles that Sony PR is in. Let's also hope that Dave's brought his bag of high-proof tricks to Sony. Sellers of tipple have long claimed that underage youth are buying their goods without any attempt on their part to market to those youth. That's pretty badass right there, so imagine what the man should be able to do with a product that's actually legal for those under drinking age...
First shot of Factor 5's Lair for PS3! [Update 1]
This image, reportedly of Factor 5's upcoming PS3 title Lair, recently surfaced on the Internet. Aside from a short trailer on display at TGS last year, little has been seen of Lair, which focuses on dragon combat. If this is an in-game shot, which the visible HUD-like information (action icon, life bar) seems to indicate, than Lair is shaping up to be a visual masterpiece. But given the current track record of pre-release PS3 media, we're not gonna jump on the bandwagon — just yet.UPDATE: added link to high-res image.
