Well, I bet Greenpeace are pleased. Call it vandalism, call it juvenile, call it whatever you like, but Seven45 Studios, creators of the new contender in the rhythm-game tug-of-war Power Gig: Rise of the Six String, thought it would be a great idea to dump fifty plastic guitar peripherals into Hekla, an active volcano in the south of Iceland.

Sony Computer Entertainment has done a little bit of, “Hmm I like the look of that, I’mma try it!” and has produced a new controller and sub controller. The first pictures of the “Playstation Move Motion” controllers show an item that looks a lot like something we’ve seen before … somewhere… Anyway, enough of me making subtle references...
