There's a flaw in Sony's PlayStation Network "Welcome Back" package that was always going to occur

While Sony's offering a pretty compelling selection of games, the hardcore fans are likely to be the ones that miss out — mainly because they'll already own the choices. Still, think outside of the hardcore circle and Sony's "Welcome Back" gesture is more than generous. In Europe and North..

inFamous is one of our favourite games on the PlayStation 3

It's one of those titles that came out of nowhere, but the experience stuck with us for a long time. In an interview with Spong, Sucker Punch producer Brian Fleming has countered our positive opinion, stating the game was just "okay", a trait that has factored into its cult status. "I don’t think we did ourselves any..

The issues Sony's been having with its PlayStation Network service are well documented across the web

I'm told the folks at this very publication have been frantically clamouring for more information on the situation, but Sony's remaining tight-lipped. Honestly, it's probably for the best. No matter how big or small the problem is, Sony will want to control the message that comes out of the..

Remember 2009, when similar-looking super hero titles launched on the PlayStation 3? Those games were Prototype and inFamous

Many forum topics debated which game would come out "the winner", but it wasn't long before people totally forgot about Prototype, succumbing to inFamous' brilliance. A sequel to inFamous was announced at E3 this year and based on our hands-on impressions it raises..

The PlayStation Blog's just uploaded a condensed version of Sucker Punch's Comic-Con panel from earlier this month

The panel goes into a lot of detail about the original inFamous' design process, aswell as tackling some hot-topics regarding the sequel. Interestingly, Sucker Punch dropped a "wait and see" line regarding PlayStation Move support and multiplayer, which a more speculative..

You know what -- Sucker Punch are really interesting guys

This behind the scenes documentary with the studio discussing their influences is heart-warming and interesting. inFamous was a smash-hit when it dropped last year, and it's so exciting to be in the build-up to the sequel to that game. Expect to hear much more about inFamous 2 tomorrow as Sucker Punch hold their panel "From Origin..

Sony's first-party is the best in the world

We really don't care about subjection and opinion — it's fact. Nobody can touch those guys, they are incredible. As such, it's always refreshing to see how the internal teams help each other — be it with elements of their engine, programming for the PlayStation 3, or simply giving feedback on each other's games. In an interview with NowGamer, Sucker..

Our buddies over at PlaystationLifestyle have continued the recent trend of DNS sleuthing, by uncovering an SCEA filing for www

infamous2thegame.com. Hmm - yes, wonder what that could be about? Maybe it's about the hotly anticipated sequel to last year's breakout superhero sandbox hit, inFamous? Ya'think!? Pfft. Quick note: we're absolutly STOKED about the prospect of an inFamous 2. The first..

Sorry about the headline

We couldn't resist sending fans' hearts a-fluttering by mentioning the words "Playstation 3", "Sly Cooper" and "Returns". Still, crafty headlining it might be, this Modnation Racers developer "Spotlight" picks on Sucker Punch's Nate Fox, who's keen to recreate inFamous' Empire City in the kart racer. We love these developer diaries..

Yo Americans, you up for some new quality first-party Playstation 3 content at half the price? You betcha, yo

Looks like Sony's got your backs then, with Killzone 2, inFamous and Resistance 2 all set to join the PS3 Greatest Hits Collection. That's according to a Best Buy flyer that also sees UFC Undisputed 2009 and LittleBigPlanet: Game Of The Year Edition hit the new $29.99 price-point. Bargain.

There have been a number of stand-out Playstation characters who define this generation of Playstation content, but we've hand-picked the cream of the crop

Those who have made the list represent exceptional character design, and go some way to defining the Playstation 3's line-up thus far. Nathan Drake (Uncharted): Perhaps the most believable character in video games to date, Nathan Drake..

Remember the awesome Uncharted 2: Among Thieves DLC we told you about yesterday? Sony's confirmed it's coming next week, alongside a demo if you're yet (why not

?!) to play the game. The DLC, entitled the "Playstation Heroes Skin Pack" brings Cole and Zeke from inFamous, Nathan Hale and the Chimera from Resistance and Sev and the Helghast from Killzone 2. It'll cost £3.99/$4.99.

Well, if there was ever a way to get me back into Uncharted 2: Among Thieves' multiplayer component, it'd involve character skins from other games

  Which is exactly what's going to happen according to SCEJ, as upcoming DLC will feature inFamous, Resistance and Killzone 2 skins. Siliconera's got some shots of the DLC, which are due in Japan net week. They also note a map pack is due on February..

With the recent recasting of Cole McGrath, it certainly seems likely that Sucker Punch are currently working on a follow-up to their hit open-world title inFamous

Even more interesting though, is the company's posting of a job position, which requires a network programmer who has "experience building on-line components of video games." If Sucker Punch are making inFamous 2 and hiring a..

Alongside Nathan Drake, Sony Pictures want to bring Sucker Punch's Cole McGrath to the big screen

In fact, they want to do it so badly they've already got a screenplay drafted out by Sheldon Turner. Hollywood hotshots Avi and Ari Arad are said to be producing the movie; they're also apparently going to work on the Uncharted movie. To be honest, inFamous could probably translate to cinema better..

LittleBigPlanet's Sackboy is getting ready to don inFamous' Cole McGrath's outfit come this August 8th

SCEA's Katy Field has revealed that inFamous' demo became the first to ever reach 1,000,000 downloads

Hopefully everyone that downloaded the demo ended up buying the game. Still, a successful number for the Sucker Punch team that, at the very least, showcases a lot of interest in the game. In fact, evidently such was the interest that a Playstation Home space is headed this way. Presumably the new..
