126w ago - Sony European Product Manager Elliott Linger has revealed the next legend today in a new video on DC Universe Online for the PS3 entertainment system.

To quote: In DC Universe Online, the next legend is you...and Character Create is where you start your journey.

Building your custom super hero (or villain) is no easy task with all the choices on offer, from your stature to your suit, powers, movement type and weapons - this is your chance to become the ultimate superhero.

Your vision may be inspired by one of the legendary DC Universe superheroes or villains, but it is the choices you make along the way and the storyline that you follow that ultimately shapes your look and builds your legend.

Check out the below trailer of Character Create in action:





The DCUO BETA is available now to download for all PlayStation Plus subscribers.

DC Universe Online will be available on PS3 and PC in early 2011.

126w ago - Sony's Social Media Manager Jeff Rubenstein has shared an Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception PS3 gameplay reveal today.

To quote: Today, even more came out about UNCHARTED 3, as Naughty Dog and SCEA hosted media in Hollywood for a more in-depth look at the game.

Worry not, those of you who feared the entirety of Drake's Deception would take place in the swirling sands of the Rub' al-Khali Desert.

The scene we witnessed (demoed in real time) took place in a dilapidated French chateau. Nathan Drake and Sully are following the trail of T.E. Lawrence (you've likely heard of "Lawrence of Arabia") to find a clue that'll take them to the lost Arabian referred to as "The Atlantis of the Sands."

Before reading on, take a look at this excerpt, which shows about a quarter of what was demoed.





Early on, we see some of the details that Game Director Justin Richmond tells us to keep an eye out for: Drake jumping onto, and then off of a swaying chandelier, climbing not only up, but backwards if he reaches a ledge, and new contextual animations that show Drake interacting more with his surroundings (e.g. placing your hand along a wall for balance as you approach it).

126w ago - Xdev Studio Europe Producer John McLaughlin has shared a video spotlighting how to lose pounds with punches as part of The Fight: Lights Out PlayStation Move fitness report.

To quote: Workout games are all the rage these days, but rarely do they cater for those of us who don't want to wear Lycra, or repeatedly step on and off a plastic plank.

If you're lucky enough to have the PlayStation Move at home you'll have heard about The Fight already. It's the world's first true 1:1 motion fighting game starring you as an up and coming street boxer and the irrepressible Danny Trejo as your no nonsense trainer.

Unlike other fighting games where you can tap buttons in a frenzied fashion to destroy an opponent, or optimistically waggle your controller to land a decent blow on your opponent, The Fight makes you do it for real, and the rewards of this are clearly visible not only in the game but in the real world too, as YouTube user ScruffyExaminer demonstrates below:





The Fight not only gives you a great fighting game, but also a great workout, so if you'd rather get into shape by beating a digital opponent to a pulp rather than strapping on legwarmers and prancing around to the commands of an aerobics...
