Joe Danger Level Editor Video

Joe Danger is an upcoming stunt racing video game coming the Playstation Network this June . The game is being developed by Hello Games.

This video shows the game's level editor in action. As you can see it looks very accessible to use and tuns of fun to play. The game uses the three layer interface that LittleBigPlanet uses from which users pick objects from a tool box and place in one of the three layers.

Joe Danger is expected to release on the PSN in June

New Firmware Update Confirmed

The latest issue of the Official Playstation magazine confirms that their will indeed be a new firmware update for the PS3 sometime next month, possibly coinciding with E3. Little details are known about the update which will enable 3D gaming with another update for 3d Blu ray films to follow later this year.

It is highly possible that this update will feature some of the rumours from the last post on an XMB re-design and premium PSN features.

Only time will tell but with E3 right around the corner the wait will not be long.

Rumours: Premium PSN, XMB Re-Design?

Today in question are two rumours concerning what Sony may announce at E3.

First up is a rumour that has been circulating the Internet for years, Premium PSN. The latest rumour suggests that Sony will introduce a yearly premium Playstation Newtork service that will include features such as a music streaming service that allows you to listen to music while playing games. The rumor also states users will be able to download a PSN game for free per month. The annual price for this premium service is estimated at under £50.

The next rumour is that a new XMB is going to revealed at E3. Sony have stated that they will not get rid of the XMB, especially as it features across the Sony franchise in TVs, Laptops, the PSP etc. So I don't think we will see an entirely new interface but rather a Re-design of the XMB to make navigation easier, better in game functionality and to add more features. The XMB has seen many updates since the PS3's launch and i expect this to be just that an update. Could it be the long awaited cross game voice chat? Only time will tell.
