I saw "Pain" for the first time at Sony Gamer's Day. It's "Burnout" Crash Mode with people. It's Jackass turned into a downloadable game. It's a game all about launching virtual people into a calamitous path of destruction via a giant slingshot.
It's also the kind of thing some people probably see when they close their eyes and think about their boss, or their least favorite celebrities or I don't even want to know who else.
So I asked Sony's San Diego studio director Scott Rohde what "Pain" players might be able to throw.
-Sony executives?
-PlayStation 3's?
-Certain famous heiresses?
In the course of answering he explained exactly how he'd ask Paris Hilton to sign up for the role of human ammunition.
