UK journalists are currently being shown a super-secret PS3 game by Sony, but it looks as though some people just can't keep themselves to themselves. According to this, the title sees you play as one of two main characters in a tale of revenge spanning eight US states and eight days, and incorporates Google Maps as a key part of its play.

"You play as one of two characters," said the man in the know. "Both have their own story line and both have their own abilities and specialties and what not. One character is a bad guy, the other a good guy. The bad guy is out for revenge on his former mob team who left him out to dry and the other is a detective who's son has been kidnapped by the mod syndicate. The two join up to get revenge or what ever.

"The animation system is like nothing you've ever seen."

The mole added, "Think of it as an action [movie]. A non stop ride from start to finish. We want you always moving and going and not expecting what's next."

Sounds very intriguing. More soon.
