Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc. (SCEA) has teamed up with YouTube?, the world?s most popular online video community allowing millions of people to discover, watch and share originally created videos, to create a PLAYSTATION®-branded channel that delivers exclusive video content to the worldwide PlayStation community.

Launching today, October 14, 2008, and available at www.youtube.com/playstation, the PlayStation channel on YouTube will offer fans a place where they can easily access new trailers and game footage, check out interviews with publishers and developers, share user-generated content, participate in PlayStation promotions and contests, and stay connected to the PlayStation experience. More than 50 pieces of content will be available at launch, including features for SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation, MotorStorm?: Pacific Rift, NBA ?09: The Inside, and the PlayStation®Network.

An evolving service, the PlayStation channel on YouTube will initially consist of a primary PlayStation channel with a regularly updated ?Featured Video? and an embedded menu bar for specific games that takes users to a playlist page for additional video content. Fans will be able to customize their own YouTube playlists with PlayStation content and also subscribe to the PlayStation channel for updates. The channel will also consist of a menu bar that allows users to interact directly with other components of the PlayStation community, including PlayStation.com (http://www.us.playstation.com/) and the PlayStation Blog (http://blog.us.playstation.com/). In addition, SCEA will leverage the PlayStation channel to showcase contests alongside SCEA?s promotional activities, encouraging fans to submit original content for a chance to participate.
