Hitting the Books: The mad science behind digging really huge holes
Stick It To The Man hits PS3, Vita this year with writing by Ryan North
Stick It To The Man stars average-city-dude Ray, who lives in a world made of stickers and paper. After an accident, Ray wakes up with a “giant pink spaghetti arm sticking out of his brain” (just go with it) and finds he has the ability to peel off parts of his surroundings – and surrounding people – and he can read everyone’s thoughts (seriously, just let it happen). He’s then framed by The Man for a nasty crime, and he must use his new powers to traverse the city safely.
Still on board? Good. Stick It To The Man will be out before the end of 2013, with a playable version at E3 next week.%Gallery-190337%

Meet Ray, he lives in a world where everything is made out of paper and stickers. One day he has an accident and wakes up with a giant pink spaghetti arm sticking out of his brain. This gives him awesome powers and he can suddenly change the world around him by folding it, tearing it, pulling stickers off and sticking them elsewhere! And if that weren’t enough, Ray can also read peoples minds! Digging into the brains of his fellow citizens, Ray can hear their thoughts and use that to his advantage. Unfortunately, Ray doesn’t have much time to get to grips with his new abilities. He is framed by ‘The Man’ with a crime he didn’t commit, and is on the run. Can you help to get Ray out of this sticky situation?
