In the <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/dungeon-defenders-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_dungeondefenders_community_02_15_13">Dungeon Defenders</a> community, we do things a little differently. If you need a refresher, Dungeon Defenders blends the looting and leveling of action-RPGs with the strategy and objectives of tower defense. You and up to three of your friends can team up to protect the precious Eternia Crystals from an ancient evil. Haven’t played Dungeon Defenders before? Now is a great time to start! It’s currently <a href="https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/games/dungeon-defenders/cid=UP2050-NPUB30251_00-PS3ST_DUNGEONDEF">free for PlayStation Plus subscribers</a>, and next week, we’re hosting another fantastic Community XP Event for our PS3 community. <a href="http://forums.trendyent.com/showthread.php?95600-Community-XP-event-Sign-Up-Thread">Click here</a> to register, or read on to learn more.

<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...

Howdy fellow gamers, Nick Livingston back again to introduce another new feature in <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/mlb-13-the-show/">MLB 13 The Show</a>.

The Show Live allows you to play any games from the 2013 MLB schedule with the most up-to-date rosters, lineups, and statistics, fed directly from MLB.com.

Relive a player’s 40th Home Run, clinch the pennant for a team that choked it away, or play along with the game you’re watching or listening to. The Show Live is a mode for the truest of MLB fans.

<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.

One of the really cool features in <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/urban-trial-freestyle/">Urban Trial Freestyle</a> for <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps-vita/">PS Vita</a> and <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps3/">PS3</a> is the ability to customize your motorbike -- but it’s more than just picking out shiny new parts. Bike customization is a key factor that directly affects your performance in both the Stunt and Time Attack Modes. Bike Customization allows you to adjust your bike to best meet the conditions on each of the available tracks. Urban Trial Freestyle provides you with three main bike components to customize your vehicle -- engine, chassis and wheels -- customizing these parts influences three main parameters: speed, acceleration and handling.

You may remember that last week we published a <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/02/05/alien-breed-launches-ps3-and-ps-vita-assault-next-week/">blog piece</a> on the <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> release of Alien Breed, in which our Creative Director, Kevin Carthew, made a sneaky reference to potential future retro-revivals of other classic Team17 titles. Today, we're unveiling our plans to release Superfrog HD later this year, 20 years after the regal amphibian’s first appearance. Superfrog HD will feature all new graphics, and is set to make an appearance on both PS3 and PS Vita. Debbie Bestwick, Team17’s Managing Director, says, “We're extremely excited about bringing Superfrog HD to PS3 and PS Vita; it's the most requested game that our fans are always requesting to see make a return."

We ‘clucked up,’ and the planned 20% discount will take a bit longer before this is set up in the US <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psn/playstation-store/" target="_blank">PlayStation Store</a>. We will let you know when the discount goes live. That said, building upon our 3x IGF Finalist browser game Rocketbirds: Revolution! and Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken for PS3, this new PS Vita version utilizes many of the PS Vita's awesome features.

Hey all! I wanted to drop by PlayStation.Blog to help celebrate the <strong>one-year anniversary</strong> of <a href="https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/games/twisted-metal/cid=UP9000-NPUA80079_00-TWISTEDMETAL0100">Twisted Metal</a> for <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps3/">PS3</a>! “What?!?†I hear you say, “The game’s already been out for a year?!?†Indeed it has! Crazy how time flies, huh? Seems like only yesterday some of y’all were telling me I was an idiot for focusing the new game on three characters versus a larger cast like we did in the earlier TM games. Ah, good times, good times. More...

Greetings, PlayStation faithful! Scott here again from <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/creat-studios/">Creat Studios</a>, with an update on our newest release. Germinator will be available in North America on March 5th. Our team loves to make casual and puzzle games for <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/psn/">PlayStation Network</a>. We’re the folks that brought you Magic Orbz, Cuboid, Mahjong Tales and Ricochet HD. Our next game, Germinator, continues that tradition. Now, Germinator is no ordinary bubble game. There’s none of the match-three that’s been done everywhere else. Instead, same-colored bubbles combine and grow, grow, grow until they pop into a gooey mess! More...

Hello, fellow Spartans! My name is Ariel Lawrence, and I'm a Producer on <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/god-of-war-ascension-ps3.html">God of War: Ascension</a>. No one can argue that Kratos is angry. With everything that's happened to him over the years, he has every right to be. He's killed -- either accidentally or intentionally -- everyone he's ever cared about. He's been lied to, chained up, run through, tortured, and cast into the depths of Hades <em>several</em> times. If I was him, I'd be angry too. Our aim in this installment of Kratos' story is to try and show a bit more of his humanity. To do this, we incorporated voice over motion capture, or "vo-mocap", into our cinematic pipeline. The really exciting part of "vo-mocap" is that it gives our voice actors an opportunity to work together in a scene. More...
