Sony To Unveil Sitcom Games For PS3

Like Office Space or The Office? Sony's newest episodic content game may be your brand of java. Rat Race, as described by Sony, "is a PS3 exclusive comedy/adventure game... to give you the feeling of 'playing' inside an episode of your favorite TV show." Starting this winter, Sony will begin releasing game episodes via the PlayStation Network for an undisclosed, periodic price. The game is set in an "extremely dysfunctional" office environment where players are required to endure the nine to five as you interact with a PR hottie, a pompous jerk (aka a Dwight Schrute knock-off), and an eccentric lab scientist in addition to others. Rat Race is being written by persons involved on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, My Name Is Earl, Saturday Night Live, South Park, and Comedy Central sketches says Sony.
