Naughty Dog’s co-president Evan Wells is definitely interested in having people tuck Nathan Drake — either halfway or all the way — into their pockets and visit the world of Uncharted whenever they want to. He feels that there are a lot of stories to tell in that world, and that the PSP would be the perfect platform for it. Just imagine Uncharted: Sully’s Adventure where you can wheel and deal in the black market, or Uncharted: Elena on Assignment where you’re chasing a dangerous news story
Sony Worldwide Studios VP Scott Rohde had the onerous task of introducing the first PlayStation Move games at Sony’s GDC press conference last night. We caught up with the executive after the show to talk about Sony’s plans for exploiting motion control and if hardcore gamers should be concerned about the future of the PS3 games library.

The lawsuit was an alleged copyright infringement claim , filed by a pair of plaintiffs who had submitted a screenplay entitled Olympiad to Sony Pictures in 2002.

And while the game’s aesthetics are unmistakably consistent with previous games, its unique format draws inspiration from a wider range of sources, including last year’s polished XBLA hit, Shadow Complex . Like Shadow Complex , the game will launch for $15, offering approximately six hours of co-operative action and puzzle-solving (though your pace may vary)
If, for some reason, you didn’t purchase and love Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes on DS — or even if you did — you’ll have the opportunity to buy the puzzle RPG on two new systems this year, in glorious hand-drawn HD.
