Video games have become more and more a part of our lives. The video game has gone from being a small niche of the entertainment world, to games raising blockbuster sales. One of the key companies behind the video game industry is Sony and their Playstaion console. Montana fans of Playstation will get their chance to preview upcoming games, before anyone else as the "Sony - Greatness Awaits Truck" is scheduled to stop in Great Falls.

What is the "Sony - Greatness Awaits Truck?" It is basically a mobile video game expo. Our friend Josh at Team KAIZEN explains.

My name is Josh Hughes and I work at Team KAIZEN in Great Falls (we're Montana's first PlayStation Certified Game Studio). We were in a social media contest recently where we had to pitch why Sony's Greatness Awaits Truck (basically a video game expo on wheels letting people play games not coming out for a year or more) should stop in Great Falls. Despite being up against places like Houston and Long Beach we DECIMATED the competition and had more than double the votes of 2nd place! So the Truck is coming here to set up a mini game expo and block party and all of Montana is invited!

What: PlayStation Greatness Awaits Truck and Block Party.

When: August 23rd (Saturday) from 3-8 PM.

Where: Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art (Central Avenue in Downtown Great Falls, www.the-square.org)

This is a FREE appropriate-for-all-ages event complete with games, prizes, cosplay (costume) events, food trucks, music by North Central MT's Helligans and Hell City Kitty and more! Please pass this on to your listeners and let them know they more than welcome to come get their game on with us!
