To play and to work is a twin that keeps our life balanced. While gaming is your preferred way of play, others may prefer music or sports. This week we have the perfect titles for gamers who can’t hide their love for the music notes or the soccer ball.
Life Rocks with Music – The PSN Exclusive Music Game : "Sound Shapes" arrives PS Store TODAY
In “Sound Shapes”, gaming and music jamming can be enjoyed together easily like having butter and jam on a piece of toast to satisfy your cravings for both. From TODAY, you can embark on a unique musical journey in this title that is exclusively available for download on PlayStation®Store.
This classic 2D platformer actually turns your PlayStation®3 or PlayStation®Vita into musical instruments such as a guitar, a piano or drums at your disposal. Now you can compose your own musical levels, upload and share them so other players can delve into a musical world created by you! Original artwork is under the hands of Capy, Colin Mancer, PixelJam, Pyramid Attack and Superbrothers, creating a cartoony, colorful world for everyone to love. With cross-save feature available between the PS3™ and PS Vita versions, your musical journey can be enjoyed in the comfort of your home and anywhere while you are on the move so you won’t miss any inspiration! And the most juicy news of all, the two versions for both consoles can be enjoyed at ONE price (Cross-purchasable)! You didn’t know that you would make a composer, right?
