A superb insight into EA Sports gameplay innovations for the Playstation 3. This clip is from a recent Sony press conference demonstrating the much improved awareness & movement PS3 technology gives the gamer. Can’t wait for it to launch, better get the thumbs into training!

Here’s a game for all you Wallace and Gromit fans called Platypus. Designed by Anthony Flack of Squashy Software Platypus is a blasting shoot-em up with a claymation twist. Every graphic is hand molded from real clay, sprites background even the score is clay and nothing short of incredible.
Platypus is a rather large download at 14 megs and only available for Windows, but it’s worth checking out. Link (via Boing Boing)

I came across Planned Pines while searching for a Julius shower curtain I’d seen in some trendy mag, Paul Frank describes Planned “an idyllic, planned community designed with civil architecture, international symbols and municipal graphics that give Paul Frank’s work global appeal and tremendous success.” Sounds like Disneyland, I just think it’s cute. You can keep yourself amused for hours be it watching the Friends -style sitcom cartoons, downloading wallpaper for your desktop or shooting aliens with bananas on Frank Invaders.

Nintendo held a conference this week at the Science Museum London (Nintendo UK are splashing a million pounds worth of sponsorship into the place) that was basically a launch of the next wave of DS games, with particular emphasis on the Brain Training games that have gone down a cerebral storm in Japan. The other titles shown included Electoplankton and Phoenix Wright (out in March).
In addition with this joint venture The Science Museum and Nintendo are set to create a gamers shrine, packed full of vintage games. The exhibition is set to launch in 2006 with free gameplay on well known tittles such as Sonic, Mario and Pacman. If anyone missed the GameOn exhibition at the Barbican this should be one to look out for.
