Welcome back! If you were traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday, you might have missed the launch of our long-awaited weekly podcast (now on its second episode). Planning, taping, and editing the Official PlayStation.Blogcast has been a lot of work, but hearing the constructive feedback, suggestions, and reactions from PlayStation.Blog readers has been immensely rewarding for Jeff, Nick, Rey, and I. Call it a labor of love! Have a great idea for an upcoming Blogcast? Never be shy about leaving ideas: this is your show.
If you’ve enjoyed the Official PlayStation.Blogcast so far, we encourage you to rate the show in iTunes. Among other things, it helps introduce new listeners to the smooth, dreamy sounds of Nick Suttner. Thanks again for your support!
In other news, major announcements have been on the light side this week. Still, we did see some interesting PlayStation developments: Our intrepid EU correspondent James Gallagher learned more about MotorStorm RC for PS Vita and PS3; MLB 12 The Show revealed its first screenshots for PS3 (and yep, it’s coming to PS Vita, too); Insomniac Games revealed two ways to win a pair of ultra-rare Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One arcade cabinets; Sucker Punch shared tips for creating custom graphic novel cutscenes in inFAMOUS 2 and inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood; and the team behind ModNation Racers: Road Trip for PS Vita released new details for the Track Studio.
