Have a godly rock out with PSN

PlayStation Network has turned to God of War for your entertainment - as well as boasting sneak previews of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves and Resistance: Retribution, downloadable content for Rock Band, Guitar Hero and more.

A godly trailer in Uncharted territory

God of War III and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves have been unveiled with two new trailers which will leave you breathless from their action adventure exploits.

In God of War III, cursed Spartan warrior Kratos returns to wreak his vengeance on the deceitful gods of Olympus and the entire Ancient Greek world. Armed with his deadly Blades of Chaos, Kratos must face mythology's darkest creatures and solve intricate puzzles on his merciless quest to destroy Olympus and the mighty Zeus himself.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves sees fortune hunter Nathan Drake re-enter the treacherous world of thieves and mercenary treasure seekers he had sought to leave behind. When a mysterious artefact propels Drake on an expedition to find the legendary Himalayan valley of Shambhala, he finds himself embroiled in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a fugitive war criminal who is after more than just the fabled riches of the lost city.
