What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the words “Chrono Trigger?†I’m sure a lot of things, but I bet the first thing on your mind right now is “When can I get it?†We’re happy to confirm that Chrono Trigger is coming to the <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/psn/">PSN</a> in North America on October 4th. That’s right—in just a few days, you’ll be able to visit (or re-visit, as I’m sure is the case for many of you) one of the most hilarious and unique casts of characters ever assembled in an RPG: <blockquote> <strong>Crono:</strong> The spiky-haired, stoic protagonist who finds himself wrapped up in events beyond his control. He’s pretty good with a katana and doesn’t run from a fight. <strong>Marle:</strong> The requisite princess, but she’s no ordinary princess. How many princesses do you know that wield a crossbow? <strong>Lucca:</strong> Chrono’s best friend since they were little kids. Oh, and she’s a supergenius who invents things such as the teleporter that starts your journey through time. </blockquote> More...

Starting now, we are happy to invite all PS3 players to the much anticipated <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/battlefield-3/">Battlefield 3</a> Open Beta! Played on the Operation Metro map in Rush mode that won us <a href="http://www.battlefield.com/battlefield3/blog/e3-awards-nominations-battlefield-3">Best Action Game and Best Multiplayer Game at E3</a>, this is your chance to experience one of many flavors of Battlefield 3. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your great interest in this Open Beta. By joining, you will help us stress test servers, allow us to run important tests on the game’s back-end and Battlelog.

We hope you’ve been enjoying the <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/ratchet-clank-all-4-one/">Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One</a> <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/09/14/ratchet-clank-all-4-one-limited-beta-launches-win-a-spot-now/">Limited Beta</a> over the last couple of weeks, and we’re excited for you to get your hands on the full game this October 18th. Recently, we’ve released videos showing off the different elements of the game, including a particularly epic spot focused on the light-eating Z’Grute boss that our heroes (and villain) must battle in the city of Luminopolis. This latest video we want to share takes place on the Aldaros Plains, one of the first areas you’ll explore on Planet Magnus. This is an area of the planet where the rules of gravity seem to be bent, and floating islands of rock make up the shifting landscape. The boss here is a gigantic creature called an Octomoth. If the name doesn’t give you an immediate idea of what this fearsome creature would be like, watch the video above! More...

After months and months of hard work I am proud to tell you that Zombie Driver HD will soon be coming to the <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/psn/">PlayStation Network</a>.

We’ve featured <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/retrograde/'>http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/retrograde/">Retro/Grade</a> several times on the <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/">PlayStation.Blog</a> over the past couple of years. And so, we know a lot about it: it’s a shooter, controlled with a guitar controller, in reverse. But before <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/fantastic-fest/">Fantastic Fest 2011</a>, I had never seen someone actually play the thing. As a pretty experienced Rock Band-er, I thought I’d be able to jump in and kick some ass, but the reality is, my gaming brain had never been taxed in quite this way. So we set up a camera for 24 Caret Games’ Matt Gilgenbach, clad in a hard hat, to show you how the game actually plays. He actually beats the game in the first 30 seconds, but that’s not an accident... More...

Ever run into a person annoying enough to make you want to launch a two-ton cargo container in their face? Well, it turns out the future is crawling with these guys. And plenty of containers to boot! If you happen to be an astro miner, this means you have a good reason to rev up your trusty G-Lifter for some serious action, now that <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/rochard/">Rochard</a> appears today on <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/psn/">PSN</a>! So what is a lone astro miner to do against an invading force of Wild Boy thugs? Well, the two-ton cargo containers are just a start. The intruders find themselves on a mined out asteroid, aka home turf, filled with giant machines built to crush, cut and smash things. And then there’s your G-Lifter, which is able to casually grab objects the size of a small car and hurl them across the room. Nifty little upgrades also allow it to fire off deadly lasers and a variety of highly explosive grenade rounds. Add all this to your ability to thrash around gravity with the press of a button, and you can look forward to putting these Wild Boys in a whole new extra-terrestrial world of hurt! More...

Story by Mike Fahey @ Kotaku.com. As promised last week, EA delivers the full version of its “99 Problems” Battlefield 3 TV spot today, unveiling never-before-seen gameplay footage and a new tagline aimed right between Modern Warfare 3‘s eyes. At this point we’ve accepted that Battlefield 3 looks gorgeous, so we’ll not harp on the visuals. Instead, let’s turn our attention to the new tagline at the end of this TV spot. It reads “Above and Beyond the Call”, an obvious dig at Call of Duty, the Activision franchise EA hopes to unseat as king of the military online first-person shooters. How should Call of Duty fans react? I’d suggest measured, focused rage. Don’t fly off the handle; stay firmly planted on the handle and toss your vicious retorts with military precision. As for Activision, I’m hoping the company reveals the new tagline for Modern Warfare 3 to be “Fuck Battlefield in Its Stupid Ass”, which is probably why I’m not in marketing.

Story by Michael McWhertor @ Kotaku.com. At the risk of sounding overhyped about DICE’s Battlefield 3, the latest batch of unofficial screens from the game’s ongoing beta are (mostly) about its UI, which are beautiful and even a little bit informative. Screengrabs from Battlefield 3‘s beta, courtesy of Battlefield forum goers, show off some multiplayer options, win/lose screens and the myriad graphic options for the PC version of the game. Very handsome, very option-heavy. Score: 0 (0 votes cast) More...

Well the eagerly awaited game event is here, and as I and many other games fans made our way from the Underground to Earls Court I couldn’t wait to see and more importantly play the new upcoming games. The atmosphere was amazing as we all made our way into the arena, which was broken up into seven zones with the centre area dominated by the hot topic of conversation outside – Onlive. Not surprisingly this is the first place everyone headed including myself, there were a number of consoles set up around the stand with both wired and wireless controllers with demo’s of some of the 100 games that are now available as of Sept 22nd (that’s in the UK of course, Onlive has been running in the US for a while now). As well as getting to play some of the games on offer, there was also the chance to get your hands on a free console once you had registered, needless to say I managed to get my hands on one and I’ll be posting more on the Onlive console and the games on offer in a*separate*article. All the big names in gaming were showing off their latest creations, including the big 3′s Mass Effect 3, Battlefield 3,*Resistance*3, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Gears of War 3. My first port of call was the Forza Motorsport 4 stand, Turn 10 have raised the bar even further with this latest in the franchise, the graphics were stunning as has been the case with previous incarnations and the controls were very responsive.*The demo for Forza 4 is coming for Xbox LIVE Gold Members on Oct *3 and will be available for Silver members on Oct 10 for those who want a taste of things to come. Another of the games I sampled was Battlefield 3, due for release on Oct 25th which was tucked away in the over 18′s area. This had a long queue of people waiting to play as you’d expect, but it was well worth the wait. It was certainly an amazing sight seeing banks of people all working their way through the trees and*undergrowth, utterly absorbed. It wasn’t hard to see why, EA Games with Frostbite 2 have created very*impressive*gameplay*and the headphones allowed the low hum of Earls Court to be blotted out in favour of the crackle of gunfire and the shout of orders. I’m sure you have seen all the advertisements and coverage of the 3DS but you may have been like me and wondered just how good it is. Well they were showcasing the latest Mario and sonic releases as well as a demo of Sky 3D. The latter to try and show people that the 3DS has more to offer than just a handheald *gaming console. I was curious as to what the experience would be like and chatting to some of the others there, they felt the same. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Its true to say that as this doesn’t rely on glasses, it makes it feel a more natural experience, although I did find the need to keep your viewing angle steady took a bit of getting used to. The 3D effect was very good and the adjustable 3D slide on the side made a*noticeable*difference. It wasn’t just all game and console demo’s of course, there were a host of developer sessions throughout the weekend as well. Among those giving talks were Michael Denny from Sony talking about the Playstation Vita and Dr Ray Muzyka from EA Games on Star Wars: The Old Republic. To sum up, there was much more at Eurogamer Expo 2011 than I am ever going to be able to write here, that said, the Playstation Vita, 3D gaming and the prospect of*on-line*gaming like never before with Onlive makes the next twelve months a very exciting prospect indeed.

I'm back home from <a href="http://fantasticfest.com">Fantastic Fest</a> in Austin, a relatively new movies and indie games event. My time there this week cemented a couple of things in my brain: 1) The future and present of gaming on PlayStation Network looks really bright. PSN was a sponsor of the <a href="http://fantasticfest.com/arcade">Fantastic Fest Arcade</a>, and we brought along games like <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/journey/">Journey</a>, <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/pixeljunk-4am/">PixelJunk 4am</a> and <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/pixeljunk-sidescroller/">Sidescroller</a>, <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/payday-the-heist/">PAYDAY: The Heist</a>, <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/retrograde/">Retro/Grade</a>, <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/closure/">Closure</a>, <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/sideway/">Sideway</a>, and more. While some of the titles won't be seen until next year, one of the featured titles, <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/rochard/">Rochard</a>, will be here in just two days. <a href="http://ps3.ign.com/articles/119/1196327p1.html">IGN is a fan</a>. 2) California needs to get its act together when it comes to barbecue. We have meat here, we can get the mesquite. Why can't we have what Austin has? Not fair. There are a number of impressions and pics from Fantastic Fest in the links below, and more are yet to be posted, including a couple of our own that you'll see early this week. More...
