Rat Race – A PS3 Adventure?

I know… my title sounds a little bit on the strange side. Someone is actually developing games for the PS3. And what’s even weirder is that the game I’m talking about is actually an ADVENTURE GAME for the PS3. I KNOW! It’s very surprising, is it not? The developer, Super-Ego Games, is making a game called Rat Race, which according to Adventure Gamers is vaguely similar to the popular TV show, The Office, except it’ll be crazier, cartoonier and just like The Office, will be delivered in a episodic format.

Another weird thing? Well, Rat Race will be exclusively for the PS3. There is no Nintendo or Microsoft involvement whatsoever. The game will be delivered through the PS3 online network, so whenever there’s a new episode out, you type in your little credit card number and BOOM! You have a brand spanking new hilarious office adventure comedy in your grubby little fingertips.

That’s just weird.

And this is how an article from Wired describes the new game:

Sometimes we describe Rat Race as an interactive sitcom, but that doesn’t do it justice. There’s more to the experience than funny dialogue. Along the way you’ll sneak, sprint, solve puzzles, eavesdrop, steal…

I love stealing! And eavesdropping! Sounds like the perfect game for me… except I don’t have a PS3 and don’t plan on buying one. But if you’re a fan of adventure games and have been waiting for the perfect adventure to come to the PS3, your wait is almost over.
