Playstation Access was a smallish, yet intimate and friendly event, there was no unnecessary pomp and circumstance, it was all about people having fun, enjoying their hobby and felt like a real exclusive event due to it’s small size. Although small, the event was impressive, fun and incredibly well presented.
Other than that, the main focus of the event was that it was all about PS3 and the showcasing of a few upcoming games as well as my first look at Resistance 3 and a lot of FIFA action as a new competitor for the Interactive World Cup was born out of a small tournament.
The first thing I made a beeline for was the Sony’s new piece of technology, the 3D Viewer, I pretty much fell in love with this bit of kit and you’ll be seeing a review of that over the next day or so, this one is really worth watching out for, especially as (in the nature of new technology) prices eventually fall.
The game comes accross as a very spaghetti western influenced scifi romp with a musical score that wouldn’t be out of place in a classic Clint Eastwood movie.
Interestingly, in what seems to be an acknowledgement to race relations concerns in gaming, Sony have made a black protagonist for the game that looks set to be a positive gaming role model that isn’t an existing sports star, and a possible new face and strong character for the Sony brand.
Strong controls, graphical flair and what seems to becoming more of a standard in heavy feeling weaponry are all present here, making this a definite title to watch out for.
As well as Starhawk there was Dark Souls, which proved to be dead hard, Resistance 3 which seemed a lot more interesting than I anticipated, Tekken Hybrid which looked just like a good Tekken game should look, some multiplayer Unchartered action which featured lots of third person gunplay and there were even more games to be played.
Now, when it comes to gaming I like carnage, destruction, violence, mayhem and I like guns. The more guns the better. Shooters are where it’s at for me most of the time, but one game that really grabbed the attention of the big kid in me was the new Ratchet and Clank All 4 One.
Not only did Stevie SG wholly recommend this one, but I do too, yes I know, it’s Ratchet and Clank, but there’s carnage, destruction, violence, mayhem…all the boxes are ticked, but with bright colours, fun characters and of course a little robot for good measure. As this was Stevie’s recommendation, I have to say she is a very wise woman indeed. This may well be next on the list when it comes to PS3 games, and yes I can hear you judging me for it but I don’t care. I’m awesome.
