No one wants to get tied down to a game purchase they can’t stand to live with. Right, PlayStation Blog friends? Of course not.
Even when you read up on what a potential game mate has to offer, even when you read previews or an early review or two, you’re still left wondering: is this the game for me? Will it satisfy my gamer needs? Will it leave me feeling complete?
That’s why we’re so excited to reveal that tomorrow (7/12), we’ll be releasing a demo for our upcoming game that explores of the psychology and horror of relationships, commitment, and love—Catherine. What exactly is the game’s story? What kind of play style can you look forward to? All such questions and likely many more will be answered with the demo. And all you have to do is download it and play!

In April we celebrated our two-millionth user-generated creation with the uber-successful ModNation-Palooza’s keyword searches. These searches revealed some amazing creations. Last week we concluded the “Moddys”, a celebration of ModNation Racers’ One Year Anniversary in which our team took an in-depth look at the past year’s best Mods, Karts and Tracks and gave them some well-deserved recognition. Check them out here!

If I could be friends with anyone (or anything,) it would easily be a Death Eater. They’re the closest character resembling a Sith Lord in the Harry Potter universe — making them the villain I’ll be rooting for this week when the seventh Harry Potter film ends the saga. With all epic films, follows an epic game. Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows arrives on PS3 this week, with PlayStation Move support adding extra precision to your magic wand.
Also, demos and minis return to PSN with the help of a brotherhood of assassins. Enjoy this week’s The Drop.

With the MLB All-Star break looming this week, we’ve hit the unofficial midpoint of the Summer. Look for an MLB 11 The Show-powered preview of the ASG later this week.
We’ve included a story about Battlefield 3′s classes below; we actually got to go hands-on with the PS3 version of the game this week. Unfortunately, that’s all I can say for another week or so, but when that embargo expires, look for Sid’s and my impressions right here.
The PS.Blog weekly reading list (Week of July 4, 2011)
Despite the slower pace of summer, it’s been an suspiciously robust time for PlayStation news and updates. This week saw the launch of the SOCOM Mobile HQ for Android phones, the wide PSN release of the UNCHARTED 3 Multiplayer Beta, an extension for registration into the “AllClear ID Plus” service to July 31st, a July 21st release date for the charming PlayStation Home shoot-’em-up Scribble Shooter, a major patch for PixelJunk Shooter 2 that enables you to save your progress mid-stage (Jeff is doubtlessly pleased!), the PSN launch of PlayStation Move Ape Escape, and a jaw-dropping 15-minute gameplay demo for BioShock Infinite.
