Fuel Overdose Coming to PlayStation Network

Today, the PlayStation Blog revealed an all-new racing game set to come to PlayStation Network. It’s called Fuel Overdose, and it looks rather interesting.

According to Skander Djerbi, the executive producer on the project, his studio I-Friqiya began work on Fuel Overdose back in 2010. They consider their project a “tactical-action-racing” game, combining three unlikely genres together into one. The trailer below explains what the game’s all about rather well, at least in terms of its status as a racer.

Fuel Overdose has a team of three people working on it, and is still in-development. Its release date (or even its release window) remains unknown. However, in the comments, Djerbi did confirm that it will come to PS3 first and later to PC, and that his team is considering bringing the game to Vita as well.

But perhaps most interestingly, Djerbi later says that he “totally agree[s] with the fact that Fuel Overdose on Vita would be a good idea. All your feedbacks [sic] are very constructive and will be reported to Sony (which is the only indie-friendly HD platform) to try to get more support from them.”

Insomniac Reveals New Game Title: Fuse

At today’s PAX keynote address, Insomniac Games CEO Ted Price revealed a new IP. It’s called Fuse, and we literally know nothing else about it other than the image shown while discussing the game: a man fighting some sort of robot.

Interestingly, a website for the game may already exist. If you head to FuseGame.com, not only is the website active, but there’s a countdown clock on it. The countdown clock is up on September 12th. What could it all mean?

An analysis of FuseGame.com’s WHOIS reveals very little, unfortunately. The domain was originally registered back in August of 2006, but was last updated only three days ago. The company that registered the domain is based in Scottsdale, Arizona, while Insomniac Games is located in Burbank, California.

Hopefully, we’ll hear more about Fuse soon.

Is this the Next Flagship Nokia Phone?

Two images of Nokia's Lumia 920 have surfaced today, featuring a touch interface with 3 soft buttons, what appears to be a PureView camera, and (allegedly) a 4.5 inch screen.

While the image is pretty clearly computer-generated, it's not unlikely what we're seeing is an incomplete press rendering. In other words; this probably is the Lumia 920.

A leaked image of the 4.3-inch Lumia 820, showing more of Nokia's bright colors, appears below.

Nokia will announce its Windows Phone 8 offerings at a press event with Microsoft in New York on September 5th. We'll have more details for you as they come out.

Stoked for Nokia's upcoming Windows Phones? Let us know in the comments.
