Sony have revealed a new PSN title named 'Trash Panic'. The puzzler will see a release this quarter. From Gamespot.

Previously announced in Japan as Gomibako, Trash Panic calls on players to uses a combination of spatial reasoning skills and power-ups to fill up a junkyard crate with as much trash as possible. Beyond shuffling and twisting trash around to fit better, players will also be able to smash objects into much more manageable debris by dropping them from heights or crushing them underneath heavier items. Additionally, biodegradable refuse can be paired together for quicker rotting, and a flaming sword power-up will help incinerate particularly pesky items.

SCEA announced the Trash Panic news in conjunction with a charitable Earth Day promotion. On Earth Day (Wednesday, April 22), Sony will donate $1 to the Conservation International charity for each of the first 10,000 paid PlayStation Network downloads of movies and TV shows.

This game seems horrible. On a more positive note, I bought Comet Crash the other day and I'm really enjoying it and I haven't even tried coop or versus yet.

As a puzzler, I think it could be interesting, if it's dirt-cheap.

Is it just me, or is this the most weak-sauce charitable donation in recent memory? Say what you will about Conservation International (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_International), but if you're a giant (if fiscally-troubled) corporation making a point of a press release announcing your donation, you can do a lot better than ponying up a measly 10 grand of your customer's money, on a secondary service on your device.

Saw a trailer a couple months ago. I think it looks awesome. I'm way more interesting in clever little games like this than more of the same that AAA titles want to give us.

I guess they are at least being honest about the garbage they are putting on PSN.

Looks interesting, but I'd rather have a new Tetris Attack.

That looks fun, demo fun though so probably not a full purchase.
