de Blob 2 hands-on for PS3 and 360:
http://www.joystiq.com/2011/02/22/de-blob-2-review/

It's supposed to be Move compatible. Should be DS3 friendly too but I'm not sure.

Read that it started as a dutch students group projects and THQ bought the rights:
http://www.hku.nl/web/Studiekeuze/GamesEnInteractie/GameDesignAndDevelopment/deBlob.htm

'de Blob' was constructed by 9 students of Game Design and Development at the Utrecht School of the Arts (HKU) and one student of Informatics at the University of Utrecht, commissioned by the information centre for Utrecht’s railway station area. During the course of the next fifteen years, this area (which comprises the central railway station, the Utrecht Trade Mart and Hoog Catharijne shopping centre) is to be entirely renovated.

Some students behind 'de Blob' started their own game company 'Ronomo-Games' and have office in Utrecht in the 'DutchGameGarden'. In the meantime THQ bought 'de Blob' student project ...
 
Interesting, I had no idea there guys were from Holland. I guess that's why it's called de Blob instead of the Blob.
 
Awesome to see this game idea turned into a full fledged game.

The game looks really good as well.
