PlayStation Network Drama Series Powers Selects Director
The upcoming PlayStation Network exclusive drama series Powers, based on the comic book of the same name, has some new details.
Announced during E3, the show will be available as part of a PlayStation Plus subscription, though the first episode will be free to everyone starting in December. The first two episodes will be directed by David Slade, who has directed episodes of Hannibal and Breaking Bad, as well as movies 30 Days of Night (another comic book adaptation) and Hard Candy.
The series will premiere in December, and Sony is promising more details to be revealed about the show throughtout the Summer.

Our Take
This is an interesting incentive to attract more PlayStation Plus subscribers. Slade certainly has some quality credits to his name making me optimistic that the show will be good. I will probably check out the first episode, out of curiosity, but I'm not sure if it's something I am excited to watch in its entirety.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
