Gonna dress You Up In My Love (All Over, All Over)

If my love wont work, how about using Sony's upcoming dressing... uh... simulator or something to dress up some virtual avatar dudes and make them dance?

This guy obviously needs help getting dressed.

From the "your guess is as good as mine" category comes dress, a lower-cased PlayStation Network release from Sony's Japan Studio. There's a trailer for the game being shown on the floor at the Tokyo Game Show and... yeah, I don't know. Here's what I saw.

Dress appears to be a downloadable PlayStation 3 game from Sony Computer Entertainment. It's focused on dressing up virtual avatars in a variety of clothes, both licensed from companies like Puma, specifically the sub-lines designed by Mihara Yasuhiro, and stuff that you can design or modify yourself. Shirts, for example, have customizable text that let you personalize your gear.

Once they're dressed, you can make your virtual fashion dudes dance around. The game also seems to keep score, though it's not immediately obvious what it's scoring you on. In fact, thinking about dress at all sort of makes my head hurt.

Check out the trailer here on Sony's site.

Not since the announcement of Africa has a game filled me with such excitement!!, now is this one the the big Sony titles, you know the 14 or so they said would be here that were unannounced.  I know there's that garbage tetris game that looks actually quite good but what were the other announcements?

I can just see this having a tie-in to some kind of online store where you can handily buy the clothes you just sampled on your avatar.

That is not what I would call a game. I'd call that a chore. Or a toy for five year olds girls.  And I've already dressed myself today, I don't want to have to dress another person. Will it be the next Big Rigs? Tune in next time.
