Sony unveils Shoot! Short Films on PS3 and PSP

i4u.com writes: "Sony announced a new initiative called Shoot!. Shoot! will deliver series of short films that will be free to download from 13th November via PlayStation Network for PS3 or PSP, allowing you to watch cutting-edge film from up-and-coming directors and experience this unique content. The films will also be screened across Europe on ShortsTV from January 2009.

Sony got six of Hollywood's award winning filmmakers Armendariz, Bruckheimer, Kounen, Rothermund, Vinterberg, Winterbottom to work with emerging film directors from their own country for Shoot!.
The emerging directors created a short film, shot in High Definition, based on an open brief, shaped only by one of a number of words that capture the essence of PlayStation: Play, Create, Share, Connect, Discover and Challenge."

Sony hits back with this.

@Sony rep: I don't care about which one is better.When it comes to xbox live i don't think i will even watch them but all i am pointing out is how we the consumers benefit from the competition.

This is better...

Indie films are some of the best films out there. They aren't sucked up in Hollywood bs. They make films because it's a passion, not because they can make money off of an existing ip.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos3h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv721d 14h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
