New PS3 and PSN Releases for the Week of February 7, 2011

119w ago - Sony Senior Social Media Specialist Rey Gutierrez is here with the new PS3 and PSN releases for this coming week today, as follows:

PlayStation Network

Tales From Space: About A Blob -- Tales from Space: About a Blob is a game about a race of alien blobs that land on an Earth-like planet and start eating everything around them. Eating is just what Blobs do -- they can't really help themselves.

Although the Blobs aren't really out to hurt anyone, mistrustful humans greet them with hostility. Players will interact with the game environment using unique growth and absorption-related control mechanics, experiencing the world at vastly different scales as they progress. Both single-player and co-op play will be supported. 





Plants vs Zombies - Help! The zombies have invaded! And don't look now, but they're coming for you next! You'll need to think fast and plant faster to fend off this mob of helmet-clad, pole-vaulting zombies.

PlayStation 3 retail releases

Test Drive Unlimited 2 -- Test Drive Unlimited 2 aims to transform the driving genre, adding the persistence, progression and customization of the latest multi-player games to the racing experience.

Players define their online persona through unparalleled customization of their avatars and vehicles, and the acquisition of property, clothing and other accouterments of a luxurious international lifestyle. The challenge comes to life with refinement and balance of the core Test Drive driving experience.

Trinity: Souls of Zill O'll -- Trinity is an action RPG set in the world of Zill O'll. You lead three characters of different types, Aleus, Daguza, and Zelena, through a massive story that features plenty of optional sub quests.

The game's combat system is party-based, with all three characters using swords, magic, and other attacks to defeat the sometimes massive enemies. The fields of play themselves contribute to the action, changing as you cast magic and break down columns. As an example, you can freeze a lake to walk over it, or pick up a column that's fallen due to your attacks and use it as a weapon.

You Don't Know Jack -- The award-winning You Don't Know Jack trivia franchise is now playable on your PlayStation 3! The pioneer of the interactive game show format, You Don't Know Jack returns with all-new questions and classic features such as Screw Your Neighbor and commercial parodies.

Filled with more than 15 hours of game play, You Don't Know Jack offers multiplayer action and online challenges via PSN. Along with classic quiz modes such as the DisOrDat and the Jack Attack, You Don't Know Jack offers features like the Wrong Answer of the Game and collectible prizes, with more than 70 full episodes of trivia quiz show.
