We've known for a while that Dance on Broadway was coming to Move, but now Ubisoft has announced an official release date for the title and given a little insight into the game's tracklisting too.
500 Point penguin puzzler
Picture the scene: you want to set out on an exciting journey with zany penguins, but international law prohibits you entering the animals' habitat, even if it is in order to lead them safely through 100 frosty levels by issuing commands such as walking, jumping or waiting. You know that without you they have no chance of survival, and that you must guide them to avoid broken ice areas, falling cages, wolves and other dangerous obstacles, but Greenpeace is resolute in its opposition to your plans. What can you do? Download Arctic Escape for DSiWare on Monday, perhaps.

Rat goes cheap
As well as the Killzone 3 single-player demo, a few pieces of Move-related DLC received price reductions in yesterday's American PlayStation Store update.

The original Dr Kawashima's Brain Training on Nintendo DS started a revolution back in the day: suddenly game developers realised they could tap into a brand new market of buyers eager to kickstart their cerebral centres, and a host of copycat titles emerged over the next few years. With Kinect ready-made for this same market, it's no surprise the Japanese doctor has returned - minus Nintendo - with a series of new brain-busting exercises in the form of Dr Kawashima's Body and Brain Exercises (known as Dr Kawashima's Body and Brain Connection in some countries.)
