PlayStation.Blog Recap

There are thousands of things you could do this weekend: play FIFA Street, finish a jigsaw puzzle, learn a new musical instrument… and you can also enter this competition from Sony UK and be in with a chance to Visit Naughty Dog Studios in the US and be captured to appear as a multiplayer character in Uncharted 3. There are only a few days left to enter so get that hat of yours in the ring.

And while we’re talking about the wider Sony family, check out this video I discovered earlier in the week (it’s best with headphones). It shows a new audio technique called Binaural Sound which aims to replicate how a person in a particular scene would actually hear what is happening around them. You can read more about how it works here.
