PSN gets a 'Shock

The content on PlayStation Network increases with some new Challenges for BioShock fans, exciting new costumes for LittleBigPlanet, a look behind the scenes of MotorStorm Pacific Rift, and more. Enjoy the thrills of PSN.

Take the BioShock challenge

The BioShock experience increases on PSN with all-new PLAYSTATION 3 exclusive content, which includes three unique Challenge Rooms that take place outside of the main storyline as well as New Game+. Smart thinking and resourceful gameplay will earn you new Trophies, so make sure you have your wits about you in the underwater city of Rapture. Download the trailer for a peek or dive straight into the Challenge Rooms themselves.

LittleBigPlanet goes Loco

Sackboy's myriad of costumes continues to grow, with a new addition to his wardrobe in the shape of five colourful outfits from refreshing PSP action title, LocoRoco. Simply load your copy of LittleBigPlanet, download these costumes and add some LocoRoco charm to the game.

If that's not enough, you can also download the Sack in the Box costume for a rather unique Sackboy costume. Check it out and see exactly what awaits you.

Simply Stormin'

Go behind the scenes with Paul Hollywood (Creative Director), Nigel Kershaw (Game Director) and the MotorStorm Pacific Rift development team as they research the tropical sights and sounds of Hawaii. Find out how the unique rock formations of the Volcano National Park helped to inspire some of the racetracks in the game itself. Then watch a spectacular helicopter ride along the Hawaii coastline to record molten rock spewing into the ocean.

All footage captured was used as reference material for the Earth Zone and Fire Zone racetracks in MotorStorm Pacific Rift, so check out the two trailers and get a valuable glimpse behind the scenes of this amazing journey.
