rain Launch Trailer September 30, 2013

The next major downloadable title for the Playstation 3, rain, is expected to launch tomorrow.  Since it was first announced, the concept behind rain has fascinated me.  I don’t know if it is the art style, choice of music, or gameplay but there is just something about rain that separates it from all the other games that have been coming out recently.  To celebrate its imminent release, here’s the game’s official launch trailer.

BEYOND: Two Souls TV Spot September 30, 2013

It looks like with just eight days to go before the release of the latest game from Quantic Dream, Sony has been ramping up the hype machine for the PS3-exclusive game BEYOND: Two Souls.  Starring actress Ellen Page, the game revolves around the character of Jodie, who has spent her entire life in the company of a supernatural best friend named Aiden.  I had the pleasure of previewing this game at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival, and I have been waiting patiently for this game’s release since it was announced at last year’s Sony E3 Press Conference.  In fact, I saw huge displays going up for the game at my local Best Buy just last week.

If you happened to catch a football game this Sunday on Fox, you may have seen this TV spot for the game.  For those of you who may have missed it, here is the entire 60-second TV spot.
