Blast Factor: Big Thrills in a Microscopic World

Stunning new title for PLAYSTATION 3 only on PLAYSTATION Network
Battle viruses without taking six years of medical school
Motion-sensitive play with the SIXAXIS Wireless Controller

This March, PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3™) gamers will be taking up arms against one of the human race’s deadliest enemies. No – not space aliens: the battleground is smaller. Blast Factor™ pits you against viruses in a microscopic arena – and it’s available exclusively by download from PLAYSTATION®Network1 (PSN), the interactive, evolving space which opens the door to a new world of exciting entertainment opportunities. Take control of a G-18 Nanite Interceptor that’s been injected into a specimen of infected cells. Guide your Interceptor from cell to cell destroying deadly viral swarms – all in High Definition, motion-sensitive play.

Keep blasting until you reach the viral Nano-Core which must be destroyed to clear the specimen and progress to the next one. To aid you on your mission, you’ll discover a whole arsenal of anti-viral weaponry and power-ups, which can be obtained from drop canisters – if you’re quick enough to get to them. Tilt the SIXAXIS™ Wireless Controller to send ripples through the arena that corral enemies into groups, then let rip with the blasters to create chain explosions for big points.

With intuitive ‘pick up and play’ controls designed specifically for the SIXAXIS, loads of enemies and a ton of virus-blasting weaponry, Blast Factor is a next-generation dose of pure shoot-‘em-up action. With its challenging single player mode, Blast Factor will push your reactions, trigger finger and dexterity to the limit – but that’s not the end of it; once you’ve earned your disease-busting credentials, hit PSN to team up with other gamers in co-operative mode or set up a grudge match in multiplayer mode for up to four players. With the power of PS3, medicine has never been so tasty.

Key Features:
• Full High Definition graphics for high-resolution, high-adrenaline action.

• Self Adjusting Difficulty – Blast Factor’s difficulty adjusts to your level of play from level to level.

• Use the motion-sensitive SIXAXIS Wireless Controller – by tilting left and right, gamers can create tidal waves to propel enemies across the screen.

• Global Online Rankings – make your mark on the world of video game virus-fighting and compare high scores globally.
