Greetings one and all. My name is Ashley Wing, an independent filmmaker from the UK based in Devon.

Me and my crew are just coming to the end of the long post-production process on our sci-fi short film ‘Fracture’. The grade (colouring of the film) only has a few days left and then we render our final export before it begins its journey to the Home Cinema.

Let me begin by telling you a little bit about myself and why I proposed an online premiere at PlayStation Home cinema.

It’s been a while since we’ve updated you on the remastered ICO & Shadow of the Colossus Collection, but we did want to remind you about its upcoming launch on September 28th! As a special treat, we’re proud to unveil the final box art and inside packaging for the collection, depicting stylised artwork from both titles. In addition to full 1080p HD, stereoscopic 3D support, and 7.1 surround sound, we are also including some exclusive video content featuring gaming visionary Fumito Ueda available via an in-pack voucher to enable you to download from the PlayStation Store. Full details are available here.

Additionally, we wanted to confirm that The Last Guardian is not on the schedule for this year’s Tokyo Game Show. However we can assure you that Ueda-san and the rest of the development team are hard at work to bring his lofty vision to life and deliver the very best gaming experience possible.

Hey everyone,

Earlier this year, you may remember that we ran a Get in the Game contest for Resistance 3. In fact, we had winners from both the US and UK fly out to San Diego in late March to get scanned for the game, and also come to the Insomniac Community Day at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood. Our two winners had great entries in the contest, and we were really excited to have them out to California and put them in Resistance 3. Now that the game is almost here, we wanted to give you a glimpse at the head-scanning process, and show you how they look as their characters in the final game. Take a look.

We think the head scans turned out pretty well. You might be wondering where all of the other heads in the game came from. Many Insomniacs took a bus ride from Los Angeles down to San Diego to get their headscans in. We did some mixing and blending of the heads (not as gross as it sounds) so you may not recognize us specifically, but some of our features are certainly in the game!

That’s all for now, we’re so excited for you to get your hands on Resistance 3. If you already picked up a copy, let us know what you think in the comments!

My name’s Natalya Netselya and I’m an artist specialising in the medium of sand. I’ve been creating imagery in sand for almost five years now, but this is the first time I’ve created a piece inspired by a videogame. As Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception takes place in the Arabian desert, it provided the perfect backdrop for my sand art. It was fun for me to recreate an iconic character like Nathan Drake in some of the amazing settings from the latest game. I’m sure you’ll recognise some familiar sights from Uncharted 3, and I hope you enjoy watching me bring them to life in sand.

If you are like us and your world revolves around mainly sun and music, September can be a little depressing. It’s pretty much the end of the summer and festival season. Well we can’t do anything about the weather, we tried, but it turns out that shouting at rain doesn’t make it go away, but we can extend the festival season just a little bit by holding our very own month long, rain proof festival! No tents, no dodgy food, no mud, just great music.

We will be featuring a new stage every week throughout September starting with the Superstar Stage. A stage for all the biggest acts in the world to show what they really have. The likes of Beyonce, Pitbull, Coldplay, Lady Gaga, Kasabian and loads more to keep you bouncing up and down in the comfort of your own home. Next week… Air Guitar Stage with the Foo Fighters, Anthrax and all your other guitar hero’s.

Of course that’s not all, please take a look what else we have for you over the next couple of weeks by simply reading on.
