Australian board outs “Sackboy’s Prehistoric Moves”

littlebigplaneta13

Is Sackboy going to bust a groove with some dinosaurs? Will he be assuming the role of a dorky but well-meaning father who embarrasses his children by being positively disco-obsessed? Is Sony’s new Move motion controller going to be somehow involved?

We have no idea. But Australia’s Classification Board’s rated the game, so it definitely exists.

Interview part one – THQ Core boss Danny Bilson on Move/Kinect, creativity, MOH controversy, tons more

bilson

When you hear “THQ,” what springs to mind? Wrestling games? Ni-ni-ni-ni-ni-ni-ni-ni-Nickelodeon? Well then, you might want to crawl out from under that rock you’ve spent the last few years living underneath.

Where’s Tim Schafer these days? THQ. How about Ninja Gaiden/Dead or Alive creator Tomonobu Itagaki? Same. And what’s this about Guillermo del Toro? The bottom line: THQ’s come a long, long way – but it’s far from done.

Leading the way has been THQ Core boss Danny Bilson, who was kind enough to take some time out from his busy schedule of  interacting with some of the most interesting people in the industry to chat with little ol’ us. So we basically projectile vomited questions in his face, which he was surprisingly ok with.

Click past the break to hear Bilson’s thoughts on core Move/Kinect games, the need for creativity in the gaming industry, how we should handle touchy subjects like the recent Medal of Honor controversy, 3D, Tim Schafer, and plenty more!

PS3 firmware update 3.40 stealthily adds Move support

Move-4

Did you know that Sony can remotely add things to your PS3 and not tell you about it? Wild, huh? We’d be outraged, but we probably should’ve actually read those terms of service we agreed to when we signed-up for PSN. Our bad.

This time, it’s just what looks to be the foundation for Move support. But next time? Well, our memory’s a bit hazy, but we’re pretty sure this is how the Terminator movie franchise started.
