'High Velocity Bowling' (PS3) Gets New Characters, Hallow's Eve Ball Pack

by Rainier on Oct. 23, 2008 @ 9:24 a.m. PDT

Using the SIXAXIS wireless controller to simulate a real bowling swing with lifelike lane environments, players will compete to unlock ten distinctive characters and progress through ten themed alleys on their way to bowling domination, complete with leaderboards and stats. Team RamRod is adding two new playable characters and six different Halloween styled bowling balls.

Meet the High Velocity Bowlers, each with a unique personality, skill-set, and comedic attributes. Using the SIXAXIS wireless controller to simulate a real bowling swing with lifelike lane environments, High Velocity Bowling provides a social and interactive bowling game for all ages and skill levels. In challenge mode, players will compete to unlock ten distinctive characters and progress through ten themed alleys on their way to collecting trophies, awards and most importantly, bowling domination. Up to four players can bowl in multiplayer mode. Complete with leaderboards and stats,
High Velocity Bowling is all the fun and comedy of bowling . . . . minus the rental shoes.

Anyone that has played HVB knows that it is filled with an eccentric mix of characters and bowling alleys. Joe and Jill might be your average family playing in a common setting, but it’s not everyday you can mix it up on the lanes with a biker who wants to be a Viking.

Most of you know that HVB hasn’t had any new faces in the neighborhood for quite a while, so without further:

  1. Foxy Powers is a retro revolutionary, who hails from Oakland, California. She spends her time challenging one sucker after another in her cool, dark den. Foxy has a powerful shot with a good spin. Downloading Foxy also nets you her special ball, “The Revolution” and her new lane “Foxy’s Den” which is styled with funky 70’s disco ambiance and music.
  2. Chastity Falls is a talented and enthusiastic dancer born and raised in South Carolina. Her bowling style is to smash the pins using a heavy ball with a decent hook. When you download Chastity you’ll also receive access to her lane, “Redneck Mansion,” as well as her ball, “Spare Change.”

All Hallow’s Eve Ball Pack

Finally, for the first time in HVB, we are able to offer ball packs! The first one is the All Hallows Eve Ball Pack Add-On! This download gives you access to six different Halloween styled balls including two of our special see-through “showcase” balls.
