<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.needforspeed.com/therun">Need for Speed: The Run</a> is the boldest departure for a series known for its laser-like focus on fast cars and tight driving mechanics. For the first time in <a href="http://www.needforspeed.com/therun">Need for Speed</a> history, you’re not a nameless, faceless driver; You play as an actual <em>person</em> named Jack. And Jack is facing tough times. “He’s a marked man,†explained Product Manager Darin Perfonic in a hands-on showcase last week. “He’s got serious problems with some guys who want him dead.â€</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Those “guys†are actually wiseguys -- the Mafia. And Jack’s last, best hope for survival lies in entering <a href="http://www.needforspeed.com/therun">The Run</a>, a sprawling 3,000-mile cross-country race from San Francisco to New York City. With a cool $25 million for a first-place finish, <a href="http://www.needforspeed.com/therun">The Run</a> represents Jack’s last chance for salvation before the wiseguys find him and settle Jack’s debts.

Formally announced at PlayStation’s E3 2011 press conference, the upcoming <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/06/17/littlebigplanet-2-playstation-move-even-endless-er-possibilities/">PlayStation Move Pack</a> for LittleBigPlanet 2 will greatly expand the game’s already prodigious creation suite and add countless new gameplay variants. Based on my hands-on time, PlayStation Move support radically evolves the gameplay possibilities of LittleBigPlanet 2, whether it’s flinging and manipulating objects using the new Brain Crane power-up, creating outlandish Move-focused minigames from scratch, or animating characters and props by recording your PlayStation Move gestures. “It’s the biggest update we’ve ever done,†Media Molecule’s Level Design Lead Kengo Kurimoto told me during a guided tour of the update last week in New York City.

We’re back from <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/comic-con11/">Comic-Con International 2011</a> and we’ve barely survived this year’s awesome, and awesomely busy, show! One of the our personal highlights from Comic-Con was being able to be in front of over 400 fans and talk about <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/uncharted-3-drakes-deception/">Uncharted 3</a> during our panel on Friday, July 22. Moderated by USA Today’s Mike Snider, the panel was called “Developing Interactive Entertainment: The Performance Capture Techniques of the UNCHARTED Franchise and Today’s Film Industry†and it gave Amy Hennig, Taylor Kurosaki, Josh Scherr, Nolan North, Emily Rose and Richard McGonagle the perfect setting to discuss everything that goes into creating the industry-leading cinematics in the Uncharted series. The panel also gave our fans their first look at a brand new cinematic scene, and some behind the scenes footage of the cast, that we prepared especially for Comic-Con. More...
