Touching story, and good to see a big company like this come together to do something nice for a kid. And can't wait to see this implemented in the game.

Have always respected Insomniac as developers, but its really nice to see them do something like this. It's unfortunate what happened to the kid, but damn that would be awesome to immortalized in a video game (an insomniac game too).

I wonder how they're going to put his character in...maybe an online character or something?

For a very special sneak peak watch "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" this Sunday, April 22nd, on ABC at 8/7c!
Will watch now to see game. Too bad the show broadcasts in SD still....

Yeah, it is nice to see things like this happening. I was just worried someone was going to yell at me about this being offtopic and posting it in the PS3 forum. ;)

Well, I tuned in just in time to see the game portion at the end.
Just showed him using his spaceship about a foot off the ground throwing a lot of rockets in the area around him.
He was playing the game, so he must have some kind of exclusive demo of it.
Looked ok, too bad they broadcast in SD.

That sucks that we're probably going to call that character, "The Paralyzed Kid".
