This week on PlayStation.Blog, LittleBigPlanet and PlayStation Home got some Valentine’s Day DLC, Inspector Carmelita Fox tried her luck in the online dating market, we talked about the tough choices you’ll have to make in upcoming PS Vita epic Soul Sacrifice, Urban Trial Freestyle on PS3 and PS Vita gets an off-the-wall challenge mode, and lots more!
I got to play some Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance this week, and though it’s my first Platinum game, I’m suddenly very interested in checking out the dev’s earlier work. I also grabbed Closure since it’s free on PlayStation Plus, and it’s making for some relaxing (but sometimes disturbing) nighttime gaming. Rounding out my week is the smoothly animated new PS Vita release Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken.
What are you playing this weekend?
- I’m playing: Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Closure, Rocketbirds
- I’m watching: Wreck-It Ralph, Parks and Recreation, Archer
- I’m listening to: PlayStation Blogcast 062, Progress

Persona 4 and the new characters for playstation all stars were the best update for me thank you ^^
Hi Justin,
I’d appreciate it if you could get in touch with Sony Santa Monica and find out why there has been a bait-and-switch with the Kratos statue in the Collector’s Edition of God of War: Ascension.
It was originally supposed to be an 8″ tall statue of Kratos, and in my opinion it looked much better in terms of posing and appearance of quality materials and workmanship. Now it is 6″ tall, and doesn’t look nearly as good in terms of posing, or quality.
I pre-ordered the Collector’s Edition solely for the 8″ statue, and I am now considering downgrading my pre-order depending upon the respone I get back from you from Sony Santa Monica.
It seems that most gamers nowadays do not have attention spans or memories that last longer than 30 seconds, but I know I couldn’t possibly be the only one that has noticed the switch, and would appreciate answers.
Thanks in advance for your help. (Hopefully this thank you isn’t premature.)
