“Visceral” is the key word for today’s PlayStation Blogcast, as we’re joined by Warren Price, level designer for EA Visceral Games. The amiable Mr. Price stopped by to chat about his upcoming game Dead Space 3, answering a host of our questions (and yours too!) about the February 2013 horror epic. On today’s show we discuss the challenges of creating a scary co-op game, protagonist Isaac Clark’s mental state, gameplay tweaks, the perils of fighting Unitologist soldiers, breaking into the videogame industry and much more. It’s a lengthy interview that no Dead Space fan should miss.

And as usual, we reveal next week’s PSN lineup for June 26th, 2012 (though not noted in the show, I can confirm that Jeremy McGrath’s Offroad will also join the PSN lineup on Tuesday). That’s in addition to a farm-fresh new PSN Gem of the Week, answers to a handful of new user questions, a new user tip, and a new Mystery Theme.
