PS3 announces Rat Race

No, not that somewhat-funny movie with the Mr. Bean guy.

The premise of Rat Race takes place in—surprise—a dysfunctional office called BiggCo where your prime objective is “simply to make it through the day as bombs go off all around you.”

Said Easley about Rat Race:

“Our goal is to give you the feeling of ‘playing’ inside an episode of your favorite TV show. Sometimes we describe Rat Race as an interactive sitcom, but that doesn’t do it justice. There’s more to the experience than funny dialogue. Along the way you’ll sneak, sprint, solve puzzles, eavesdrop, steal, and even ‘neutralize’ that lab monkey.”

Click, monkey, click.

dude that's either the biggest flop of all time or one of the best ideas in a very, very long time!

point: if the whole game is based around the episodic idea, (esp for PS3 which makes it a big deal), don't ya think you should put something in the title, or at least the body that will make people click on the link...?

answer: yes

you mean the part where I put the link, and the text "click, monkey, click"?

and you call ME a troll? you're such a joke.
