     Sony wants someone to shape its Playstation PC plans

A new Sony job advertisement states that the console publisher is looking for a "senior director" responsible for shaping and strategizing the plans for its Playstation PC games - which includes the upcoming Uncharted PC collection and possibly the likes of Demon's Souls, Ghost of Tsushima, and Returnal if leaks are to be believed.

There have been a number of major Playstation exclusives ported to PC recently, including the likes of God of War, Horizon: Zero Dawn, and Days Gone, and by all accounts, this plan has proved very successful for Sony - and it's not surprising the publisher is seeking to expand its plans.

As Sony posted online (via Reddit), it's hiring a senior director in charge of "PC planning and strategy" with the aim of delivering "a single, optimized PC sales growth and commercial plan" to implement alongside global storefront partners such as Steam and Epic. The role's various listed responsibilities include leading PC growth, increasing "PC monthly active users" with content and meeting "the needs of our players"

     Someone beat every Kingdom Hearts boss with a dance pad

A Twitch streamer has beaten every Kingdom Hearts boss in the first JRPG game by only using the power of dance - or, more specifically, with a Dance Dance Revolution 2 dance pad controller. That includes all of the toughest 'super boss' enemies too, such as the Phantom and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII.

There are many wonderful stories about players using inventive controllers to beat challenging games, such as someone defeating one of Elden Ring's most intimidating bosses entirely with bananas. Twitch stream MomoPkmn95 was inspired by players beating Dark Souls games with the likes of a Rock Band drum set and, yes, a dance pad to give it a go themselves - in Kingdom Hearts 1.

Most of the attempt to beat the first Kingdom Hearts game with a dance mat can be seen on MomoPkmn95's Twitch channel, otherwise there are highlights on YouTube - including their dance-off with some of the RPG game's toughest bosses, which you can see in the video below.

Day Three of PAX East 2022 is done and dusted for another year, which means it's time for another daily round-up video. We had another jam-packed schedule today, checking out Dome Keeper (formerly known as Ludum Dare darling Dome Romantik) over on the Raw Fury booth, before heading over to the PAX Rising Showcase to check out a specially curated selection of upcoming indie games. We also caught up with Larian to chat about Baldur's Gate 3 (watch out for a dedicated video coming in the next day or two), and we capped off the day by attending Shirley "Skyrim Grandma" Curry's panel over on the Bumblebee Theatre stage. I'll be writing up a separate post about this in the coming days, but needless to say, Shirley was an absolute delight.
