Flower developer thatgamecompany's next game is called Journey and it's due out in 2011 for PlayStation 3.
That's according to Sony's E3 press pack, which reveals that Journey is an "online adventure experience" that sticks with TGC's love of "simple gameplay and accessible controls".
As you can see from the first screenshots, Journey takes place in a big, orange landscape where players can walk, glide and fly as they probe to uncover the history of an "ancient, mysterious civilisation".
The online element means that you'll be bump into other people now and then and get to share the experience to some extent.
"People are free to travel alone, or adventure with strangers that they meet along the way," according to the press release.

Curious to learn more about the new PSP God of War game revealed last night? Well, Sony's fact sheet bundle can sort you out. God of War: Ghost of Sparta is developed by Ready At Dawn and due out this autumn.
It's a single-player affair, as with its PSP predecessor Chains of Olympus, and picks up after the end of the first PS2 God of War game, with Kratos installed as Mount Olympus' new God of War but still plagued by nightmares.
To sort that out, he embarks on a new journey to "reveal the origins of lost worlds and answer long-awaited questions about his dark past" - and to kill loads of enemies, obviously.
Along the way he will be able to use his famous Blades of Athena, as well as a spear and shield, and the combat system has been updated to allow him to "pummel enemies to the ground as well as throw them", and perform air-to-air attacks.
There's also a new "augmented death system" with unique weapon and magic-specific death animations, the bosses should be "exponentially" bigger, and the game can display twice the number of enemies as Chains.

Namco Bandai’s first PlayStation Move game is Time Crisis: Razing Storm, a home version of Razing Storm and two other on-rails arcade shooters.
You get…
Razing Storm
Time Crisis 4 (arcade only)
and Deadstorm Pirates.
All three games will be available from the beginning, you won’t need to unlock them. The first person shooter story mode Namco Bandai made for the home version of Time Crisis 4 isn’t part of the package. You only get the arcade game. Razing Storm has a new FPS story mode, an eight player online deathmatch mode, and sentry mode where four people take turns (round robin style) being as a prison guard.
Namco Bandai didn’t have the new features ready for a demo, but I got to play Razing Storm with the PlayStation Move. The trigger button underneath the controller is used for shooting. The top button acts like the pedal by dropping your shield when you press it. This part of Time Crisis: Razing Storm is identical to the arcade game minus the giant gun. Oh, and you have to stand or sit within the camera’s range to play.
Time Crisis: Razing Storm also supports a standard Sixaxis controller and, if you still have one from Time Crisis 4, a Guncon 3. You need to have a Guncon 3 or a PlayStation Move plus the sub-controller to blast through the game’s story mode.
Time Crisis: Razing Storm is scheduled for release this fall. Namco Bandai is aiming to make this game a PlayStation Move launch title.

We heard a mention of the PlayStation Move shooting attachment in Sony's Move E3 press release, but now that we've seen photos of the thing we think we're in love. The trigger of the attachment locks in with the analog "T" trigger button of the slotted-in Move controller for some sweet, shoot-tastic shooting, while the face buttons of the controller remain accessible thanks to a window cutout up top. But while we're sure it works great and all that silly nonsense, we're just totally enamored with the looks: it's like a 1950's ray gun, and with a light-up ball on the end and the future of motion gaming at your fingertips, perhaps that's not so far from the truth. The ray gun part. The 50's were actually a pretty bad year for motion controlled console gaming.

While most of Sony's announcements yesterday were similar from region to region, one of its European websites claimed that the fabled cross-game chat feature would be part of the PlayStation Plus offering.
The quote rolling around the internet is, "Cross-game Voice Chat: Invite your friends to chat online no matter what game you're all playing, even if they aren't members of PlayStation Plus." The idea would be that you only needed one subscriber per four cross-game voice-chatters.
However, Sony has told Eurogamer that this was "not part of the press release" and wouldn't be drawn on whether or not cross-game chat will be part of the PlayStation Plus platform, which will cost €14.99 for 90 days or €49.99 for an annual subscription.
Cross-game chat has been rumoured for a long time and part of Sony's firmware development pipeline for just as long, to the best of our knowledge.
If the news was supposed to come out yesterday but was then pulled from press releases, it seems reasonable to speculate that Sony has yet to make up its mind about whether to charge for it.
One thing we do know about PS Plus, however, is that if you sign up for a year's membership between 29th June and 3rd August you'll get a free downloadable version of LittleBigPlanet.

Phew! After the downpour of news, videos and screenshots last night, it's time to root around in the puddles of leftovers and see what we missed. One thing is a bit more info on The Sly Collection.
Due out this autumn, The Sly Collection brings the three PS2 Sly Raccoon/Sly Cooper games together on one Blu-ray disc for PS3 and, like the God of War Collection, updates the visuals so they are HD.
On top of that though, it also expands on the flimsy 3D effects in Sly 3 so they are proper and in-keeping with Sony's new attachment to the stereoscopic format, and there's the promise of PlayStation Move mini-games too.
The original Sly releases were developed by Sucker Punch, which has gone on to do inFamous and its new sequel for PS3, but the Sly Collection is being remastered, if you like, by Sanzaru Games, whose past credits include Ninja Reflex and the PS2 version of Secret Agent Clank.
Plus of course the game will feature Trophies and other PS3 mainstays.

A new interview with Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) CEO and CFO Andrew House has seen him deny rumours of a PSP2 and bat off suggestions that a PlayStation 3 price cut is imminent.
Speaking to website VG247, directly after the Sony pre-E3 conference, House was clear cut on the potential of any hardware price cuts: "I would say that we would have announced that today if we had plans to do so in the immediate future."
A successor to the PSP2 has been rumoured for some time, and despite unveiling a new marketing campaign for the PSP at their press conference, Sony announced only one new game (Patapon 3) that had previously not been confirmed.
Rumours of PSP2 hardware being unveiled at the Tokyo Game Show in the autumn have continued, but House commented simply that there were, "No plans to discuss anything around next generation right now. I think it’s important that we keep our focus on building great content for the great devices we have out now."
Questioned on why PSP sales continue to disappoint outside of Japan he indicated two intended methods for reinvigorating sales for the format.
"One is a continued stream of good exclusive content – including that from first-party which we continue to work very hard on. But I think another important strand was something we announced fairly recently: the PSP Essentials line", said House.
"I think it’s important at this point in the life cycle to show a broad range of consumers that this is a really good value proposition, and having a whole set of really good, proven quality titles available at $9.99 is really a powerful message," he added.

3D is a "much longer proposition" than Move, SCEE boss Andrew House told our man at E3.
Speaking in an interview yesterday, House said he thinks Move and 3D are on "different lifecycles" and the former's likely to "explode" much sooner in the public space.
"I think they're on different lifecycles," he said, in reference to the two PS3 innovations.
"I think move is very much something that's going to explode within the next 12 months. I think 3D is a much longer proposition. We're obviously going to have to take time to see the requirement of having new TV sets."
"It's more like the shift between SD and HD, where as I think Move is an opportunity potentially to explosively grow our business and the kinds of content that we have, just at the point of a lifecycle where we should be reaching out to a massmarket," he said.
In case you missed it, yesterday Sony announced its PS3 move games and 3D PS3 games.

Ubisoft will be rolling out two motion-controlled sports compilations this Q4 in order to support Microsoft and Sony’s hardware launches.
The company announced Racquet Sports and MotionSports during its E3 press conference. The games have been designed exclusively for Move and Kinect, respectively.
Racquet Sports will be released first, hitting shelves shortly after the Move’s launch around the end of September, and features sports such as tennis, badminton and squash. The Racquet Sports franchise has previously been released for Wii, but this edition has been developed specifically for Sony’s technology.
MotionSports, meanwhile, features a much more varied roster of sports, including football (both English and American types), skiing, horseback riding, hang gliding and boxing. Each game has been developed for the controller-less input of Microsoft’s Kinect.
MotionSports has been confirmed as one of 15 launch titles for Kinect, which is due to be released in the UK in November..

Tetsuya Mizuguchi doesn't have a Move dev kit, he's revealed, which thus puts support for the device in his new music game, Child of Eden, into doubt.
That's what the designer himself told our man on the E3 show floor yesterday.
Mizuguchi-san said he's 'still deciding' on whether to include Move support in his new, gorgeous Ubisoft game, adding that it's still possible but he needs to 'get a feel' for the device first.
More hearteningly for PlayStation 3 owners, the Rez creator told us he's 'aggressively interested' in 3D tech and that could still appear in the game.
Mizuguchi recently directed a 3D music video for the band Genki Rockets, which he said was an 'amazing experience'.

Sony America has said that LittleBigPlanet 2 will be released in November, while the Move patch for Heavy Rain is due in October.
That's according to a list of titles compatible with PlayStation Move dug up by VG247, which also indicates that the new Sly Collection is due in November.
Sony showed off LittleBigPlanet 2 during its E3 press conference yesterday evening, but didn't announce a release date.
As you'll know if you read our big old LittleBigPlanet 2 preview, the sequel to Sony's favourite Play Create Share title expands the scope to encompass other genres besides platforming.
Thanks to several innovations it will be possible to create puzzle games, racing games and even strategy games providing you can coax the mechanics out of the expanded and refined creation tools.
During the Sony conference Alex Evans of developer Media Molecule hosted an on-stage demo of several examples cooked up by favoured community developers, including an addictive-looking button-matching multiplayer puzzle game and a top-down racer.
Check out our interview with Media Molecule's Mark Healey below to learn more about how the game works and what to expect in November.

Gran Turismo 5 will see no more delays, series creator Kazunori Yamauchi has assured CVG.
Speaking to our man on the ground in Los Angeles, Yamauchi answered "no more delays?" with "yes" and a positive thumbs up. So it looks like he'll be sticking to yesterday's November 2 release date announcement.
At its E3 press conference yesterday, Sony also announced that GT5 will ship with full 3D support, which is good news for those of you with money falling out of your ears.

EA has pledged significant support for Sony's PlayStation 3, as have a number of major developers under its publishing umbrella. . At the electronics giant's Move and 3D-centric pre-E3 show, the biggest shock was the return of Valve to Sony's fold. The Half-Life and Left 4 Dead developer has long been openly critical of the PS3 as a platform, but demonstrated a dramatic change of heart. Next year, the EA-published Portal 2 will release on PS3 simultaneously with its PC and Xbox 360 versions.
"When the PlayStation 3 was introduced, I was the one of the platform's biggest critics," said Gabe Newell, president and co-founder of Valve. "However, Sony Computer Entertainment has proved that the PlayStation 3 is the most open platform of all the current generation consoles and has worked extremely hard to make the platform the most desirable for consumers and developers. As such, we are delighted to announce Portal 2 for the PlayStation 3 and believe the Steamworks support included will make it the best console version of the game."
The Steamworks architecture, previously used on Valve's PC titles and selected third-party games, offers "auto updates, community features, downloadable content, and more."
EA also promised exclusive content for its upcoming triple-A titles Dead Space 2 and Medal of Honor on PS3. The former will offer an HD version of Wii spin-off Dead Space Extraction, as well as support for the Move motion controller, while the latter will include a remake of 2002's Medal of Honor: Frontlines.
"Medal of Honor has always been characterized by authenticity and reverence for the soldier. That sentiment has never been truer than it is today," said Greg Goodrich, executive producer of Medal of Honor. "Medal of Honor has had a long, dynamic history on PlayStation platforms. We are excited to continue that tradition today with this special edition of Medal of Honor that pays homage to the legacy of the franchise on this platform."
Medal of Honor is due this October, and will be preceded by a beta test open to customers who pre-order and also own of Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Portal 2 and Dead Space 2 arrive next year.

PlayStation Plus has been given a June 29th launch date in Europe, and a new website promoting the paid-for arm of the digital network has revealed some interesting details about what’s on offer.
Chief amongst the functionality is Full Game Trials. This will allow subscribers to download complete PS3 games that can be bought on Blu-ray. They will then have unlimited access to the game for one hour – or thereabouts, depending on the game.
Any Trophies unlocked during that time will be retained once the trial has ended, and in-game progress is saved in case you decide to buy the full game.
The service was announced during the company’s E3 press conference and will cost $17.99 for three months or $49.99 for a full year. MCV reported last month Sony was likely to launch a premium PSN service.
UK prices have not been confirmed (expect to pay £40 for a year and £15 for three months) but Sony reckons users will get free content worth around £200 throughout the course of the first year.
Other membership perks include early access to demos, exclusive beta invites, selected free PSN games and automatic downloads that push anything from patches and firmware updates to full demos straight to the console.
During the first month, Plus subscribers will be able to download the full version of WipEout HD, PSN classic Rally Cross, avatars, map packs and more – and will also be given access to Qore, the PSN video game show.
Subscriptions are free for the first three months and all content downloaded are owned by consumers as long as they maintain their subscription.

Sony has said that Quantic Dream's highly acclaimed adventure game Heavy Rain has been reworked to use PlayStation Move controls.
The updated version of the game will be released at retail later this year and a patch will also be made available to existing owners.
Sony announced the news at its E3 press conference in Los Angeles along with news that Move will launch in September.
A video of Heavy Rain working with Move due out after the conference shows two people playing it while sat on a couch, although neither of them appeared to be a depressed father or an alienated child, and it wasn't raining outside.
Heavy Rain Move should be playable on the E3 show floor.

Do you hear that? It's the pata pata of tiny feet, vibrantly dancing along a 2D plane. It's not just the mice you have running around your apartment (you might wanna clean up, amigo), it's a third Patapon game. Sony announced the game alongside the news that 70 PSP games will be released "between now and December."
All pons aside, we're thrilled to hear about another Patapon title. And hey, we'd love to get our hands on it sooner than later, Sony. You meant December 1, right?

Sony has announced plans to release a subwoofer built-in, all-in-one surround sound system for the PlayStation 3 this autumn worldwide.
The Surround Sound System uses "cutting-edge technologies, including Sony's S-Force PRO Front Surround Sound" to create a surround sound effect from one speaker parked in front of your TV.
The system will go on sale for €199 when it launches, and connects happily to the PS3 and indeed the PSP using an analogue connector.

Valve Software has announced that Portal 2 will be coming to PlayStation 3.
"I've been pretty outspoken in my comments about next gen consoles," boss man Gabe Newell joked during Sony's E3 conference, "so I'd like to thank Sony for their gracious hospitality and not repeatedly punching me in the face."
Newell said that Portal 2 would be coming to PS3 in 2011 - when the PC and Xbox 360 versions are also expected - and that it would include Steam features like cloud saving.
We then got to see a trailer of the game in action (it looked hot) and hear from our old friend GLaDOS. "We can leave our differences behind us for science, you monster."
