It seems people can't get enough of the undead. <a href="http://www.laughingjackal.co.uk/">Laughing Jackal</a>’s OMG Zombies -- the last of our <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/01/16/grab-a-free-playstation-mobile-game-every-wednesday-for-six-weeks/">six free PS Mobile games</a> -- casts you as the sole survivor of a police team that has been attacked by (you guessed it) zombies. Your mission: tear through hordes of zombies across a maze of levels, and escape the city. Your progress in this game depends on the amount of chained combos you get from killing zombies. This game is an upgraded version of the OMG-Z game that was released by Laughing Jackal as a PS mini back in 2011. There are weapon upgrades, branching levels, rewards, and various zombie types to encounter. This game is the easiest -- and safest -- way to take out zombies. More...

From dressing up your Sackperson in the latest styles to tricking out your Kart with the new hotness, customization is one of the most rewarding parts of playing LittleBigPlanet Karting. It provides a powerful, dynamic way to express yourself while you’re venturing through the abundance of tracks, arenas, and other fantastic content that Karting has to offer. However, the LBP universe is vast. So vast, many of our biggest Karting fans are also huge fans of our other LittleBigPlanet titles, such as <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/littlebigplanet-2-ps3.html">LittleBigPlanet 2</a> and <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psvita/games-and-media/psv-littlebigplanet-playstation-vita.html">LittleBigPlanet PS Vita</a>. So instead of limiting your wardrobe to what’s available in Karting, we’re adding a new feature to the game that will allow you to bring your other LBP DLC costumes along for the ride – entirely for free!

Hotline Miami Assaults PS3 and PS Vita This Spring
Commander Fury posted a topic in Playstation Blog
The teams at Dennaton Games and Devolver Digital are thrilled to announce that the pixilated brutality and neon hyper-violence of Hotline Miami will be testing the will of gamers on <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps3/">PlayStation 3</a> and <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps-vita/">PS Vita</a> this spring. Through unknown black magic and dark arts, our friends at Abstraction Games are crafting an absolutely perfect version of Hotline Miami for both PlayStation 3 and PS Vita and are taking great care to take advantage of both systems nifty features. For those unfamiliar with Hotline Miami, it’s the debut commercial effort of prolific indie developer Jonatan Söderstrom and artist/designer Dennis Wedin. Hotline Miami almost immediately garnered praise from both gamers and press for its distinct visual presentation, driving soundtrack, breakneck action, and schizophrenic narrative that leaves players with more questions than answers.

PlayStation's arrival to the world of gaming signaled a change in the status quo and a sign of things to come. The original PlayStation system emerged in 1994 in Japan as a dark horse challenger, a seemingly outgunned newcomer entering a crowded field dominated by legends of the 16-bit era. PlayStation’s advanced technology and innovative controller design won raves with critics and gamers, and in 1995, the system expanded to North America, Europe, and Australia. Accompanied by a powerful salvo of titles including WipEout, Crash Bandicoot, and Gran Turismo, PlayStation’s rapid rise marked the end of one era of videogames and the dawn of another. The world was never the same. Be sure to visit <a href="http://www.youtube.com/playstation">our YouTube page</a> in the coming days as we present the evolution of PlayStation and recap our greatest moments. Then, <a href="https://us.playstation.com/meeting2013/">be the first to know</a> on February 20th, 2013 at 6:00pm Eastern Time. More...

You can get the entire download on the Sony Entertainment Network blog <a href="http://blog.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/2013/01/29/new-releases-on-the-music-unlimited-service-12913/">here</a>, <a href="http://blog.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/2013/02/12/new-releases-on-the-music-unlimited-service-21213/">here</a> are this week’s highlights. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, a screaming, thrashing, mosh-pitting fourth album from metal stalwarts Bullet for my Valentine for you and your loved one.

<a href="http://us.playstation.com/psvita/games-and-media/psv-soul-sacrifice.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_soulsacrifice_music2_02_15_13">Soul Sacrifice</a> is, as its name suggests, a game that asks the player to make an ultimate decision. It happens every time you defeat an enemy, actually -- a choice to either save the enemy’s soul, or sacrifice it for your own gain. How you customize your character in this regard is crucial, since you’re going to go up against some <em>very</em> large enemies. That scale, and the importance of making the player truly feel it, is at the heart of this piece from composer Wataru Hokoyama. Because there are gigantic, powerful enemies, it's important to build your character's stats and levels. Your decision of saving or sacrificing will affect what type of character you want to build. When you defeat an enemy, it will be in critical condition. You can approach it and decide to either Save it or Sacrifice it, each with differing consequences. More...

At <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/codemasters/">Codemasters</a> we love racing of every flavor, but professional motorsports have always been splintered into different disciplines and formulas around the world. One of the questions we’ve kicked around for years in the Studio has been simple - who is the greatest? Which driver from which series is the best? In GRID 2, we’re looking to answer that question with World Series Racing - WSR. It’s a new motorsport series that starts from the grassroots and grows into a huge Prime Time competition. Racers from different disciplines – street racers, drifters, track racers and more – all come together in one global series, with each driver moving in and out of their comfort zone. So who is the greatest? Join WSR in GRID 2 and find out… More...

On what is considered the most romantic day of the year, we thought we would check in with our favorite raccoon, Sly Cooper, and the object of his affection, Inspector Carmelita Fox. As we all know, the path to true love can be rough -- it definitely seems that way for these two. Having a history that goes way back, Carmelita has chased the master thief across the globe, though Sly has always managed to escape her clutches before she could deliver him to justice. Working on opposite sides of the law seems to have finally taken its toll on Carmelita, who -- judging by this video -- has given up on Sly altogether and is looking for a new love. Will she finally find prince charming, or will Sly continue to sneak into her heart? More...

<a href="http://us.playstation.com/community/thelastofuspreorder.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_tlou_june_02_13_13">The Last of Us</a> is an ambitious project. In many ways it may be <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/naughty-dog/">Naughty Dog</a>’s most ambitious project to date – brand new universe and cast of characters, brand new tech, brand new genre, not to mention it’s easily the longest campaign Naughty Dog has ever made. As we entered the final phase of development for The Last of Us, we came to realize just how massive Joel and Ellie’s journey is. But instead of cutting corners or compromising our vision, we came to the tough decision that the game deserved a few extra weeks to ensure every detail of The Last of Us was up to Naughty Dog’s internal high standards.
