Μικρά νεα και rumors για PS3 all in one Thread

Λογικό. Αφού έμεις έχουμε αξιόλογα παιχνίδια exclusives να παίζουμε. Γι' αυτό πήραμε την κονσόλα. Αν περιμέναμε από ebay και Ubisoft... :p

Νέα διαφημισούλα για το PS3

[ugt]229285[/ugt]

Πολύ καλή είναι με καινούργια πλάνα από το LBP, αλλά πολύ "Πίσω και σας φάγαμε!" :fight: (μην τυχόν δει κι αυτή η Sony να παίρνει μπρος, αμέσως να το βροντοφωνάξει :frog:)

Sony Designs New PS3 Controller


Sony has designed a new PS3 controller that is designed to break.
The new controller, which is supposed to be the answer to the Wii, is designed to 'break apart' into two individual units that have remote-like motion-sensing functionality.
Working units have apparently been delivered to development partners but no one has mentioned when it will be in shops, and Sony is staying quiet.
This means that man plus dog in the blog sphere has been speculating on what it will look like. Kotaku said that the controller will have a small device that attaches in the body which can be worn.
The big idea is that you can stick them on the hands to move a character's hands in-game or four on the hands and feet.
However there seems to be a bit of a dispute going on in the blog sphere over whether or not the controller can merge into a single controller.
So far the PS3's Sixaxis controller is the only thing that has motion-sensing functionality and it is only a shadow of what Nintendo's Wii Remote and nunchuck controller can manage.

Question: Just how long will a free PSN last?

A gaming site known as Slicegaming has raised the all-interesting question of just how long will the PS3's online service (PSN) remain free for? The network is closing on its two year birthday and Sony hasn't been making rapid advances on its features for PSN, recent interviews have indicated Sony is planning to roll out some big features, but all of which are believed to likely result in the service no longer being free for the end user as they require continuous investment in support. Therefore, the question looms... just how long will PSN be free for as it tries to get closer to XBL?

But PSN is closing in on its two year birthday and as of late has been making rapid advances to the previously feature-less service. Rumours have been swirling for months that an in-game messaging system would be implemented some time this summer along with a custom soundtrack feature, similar to that of Xbox Live. Also, the virtual network HOME appears to have a firm release date in the fall, and it looks as if PSN will soon be getting its own version of Video Marketplace. Here’s what Sony Computer Entertainment Europe’s President David Reeves had to say when asked about a video on demand service:

"I can’t give you a time but it is not in the distant future, it will be within this calendar year."

Clearly Sony is trying to catch up as quickly as they can and if all this can get done by the end of the year, we may have a new online leader. Here is the full article by IGN UK.

The thing is all these features will cost big money. And Sony can’t keep PSN a decent service if they continue to keep it free, out of the goodness of their hearts.

Δεν μ' αρέσουν καθόλου αυτά τα νέα. Ούτε το νέο χειριστήριο, ούτε και το PSN με συνδρομή.

Α ρε Sony... Μην την ψωνίσεις πάλι, pleaaase!

μούφες πάλι, κακοήθειες μερικών

Next year will be the "year of differentiation", claims Yoshida

Posted Jun 17th 2008 1:15AM by Nick Doerr
Filed under: Interviews, News
http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.ps...ull_shuhei.jpgShuhei Yoshida isn't wasting any time getting his PR machine in prime condition. As the new head of Sony Worldwide Studios, he's got a lot of responsibility under his belt, but also a lot of knowledge. He admits the first year of the PS3 was riddled with growing pains because developers built their games on the 360's architecture. This was the developers error, since releasing the game on the PS3 involved more effort than thought to take advantage of the multi-core processor -- leading to delays or sub-par ports.

This was also Sony's fault, he says, but now that good tools exist to assist developers and many have gotten their hands into the PS3, the trend may change soon. "Moving forward I'm totally confident that developers will start to use more from the PlayStation 3 platform. This year is the year of parity, next year is the year of differentiation in favour of the PS3 platform," he said. With the clear difference in power between PS3-based games like Uncharted and Metal Gear Solid 4, we hope more devs take his advice and start their projects on the PS3 in the coming years. It will prove easier in the long run, since moving PS3 titles to the 360 is supposed to be much simpler.

10 upcoming PS3 games that’ll turn you on

Spoiler!

Little Big Planet
Sackboy, Sackgirl. Superstar DJ’s…here we GO!
Join the corduroy revolution in Little Big Planet, a fantastic four player cooperative platformer that has you controlling a personalized Sackboy or Sackgirl as you jump, move, and grab objects. The levels all have high manipulability and you can spend time individually, collaboratively, and/or competitively rearranging the place into whatever you want. Once you’ve managed to create your very own Thunderdome level (two sacks enter – one sack leaves) you can share it with other like minded people via PSN. Mark our words well, this will be sack-tastic.

Killzone 2
Gonna take you riiiding to the… killing zone
Enter the designated zone where the elite meet to get killed - for a second time. Hopes for this game have been sky high since that very controversial ‘actual gameplay’ trailer was shown off at E3 in 2005. Little is known about the game at this stage but Guerilla Games has stated that they want to create an immersive and cinematic gameplay experience that is grounded in reality with what they call "Hollywood Realism". The game will also feature a bold new first person cover system named "lean and peak" which lets you take cover behind an object, and then pop out to efficiently blast your Nazi — I mean… ‘Helghan’ tormentors.

Resistance 2
It’s pointless to resist, pathetic human
What’s better than one campaign mode? Two, according to Insomniac, because Resistance 2’s single player campaign will follow the story of Nathan Hale, plus there’s a separate co-operative campaign for you that has a storyline running parallel to Hale's campaign. The co-operative play will support up to 8 players online (or two players via split screen) with classes including a medic class, a heavy weapons class, and a special ops class. The online adversarial multiplayer aspect of the game will support a ludicrous 60 players online, too. Early communiqués indicate that the Chimera will be invading the US this time around – Uncle Sam ain’t gonna stand for that crap, surely.

Resident Evil 5
Welcome to deepest darkest Africa
There’s a scarcely known mathematical equation that we’d like to bring to your collective attention: Fast zombies > slow zombies. Not convinced? Wait until you see Resident Evil 5 prove the theorem for us, with freaky homicidal maniacs that make the infected folk from ‘28 Days Later’ look like girly girl scouts. The gameplay closely resembles the much celebrated ‘over the shoulder’ camera style of the last game, but apparently the game's environment will also play a much more significant role. Cop some prolonged exposure to heat and you’ll soon begin to see mirages and hallucinations - and something tells us these freaky visions won’t be happy little elves in gum drop houses running down lollipop lane. Though, that would be just as disturbing.

Motorstorm: Pacific Rift
Beware your crusty demon within
Your Nana’s arthritis has been playing up for a reason — there’s a storm a-comin’… a ‘Motor’ storm. Moving away from decidedly boring desert environments, Motorstorm 2 will occur in a lush tropical environment complete with thick mud, tangled undergrowth, swift flowing rivers, choking volcanic clouds and searing lava pools. There are other promises on the table too, like Monster trucks, better car and environment destruction, and — our personal favourite — four player split screen antics, which is a feature that more next-gen games need to include. We simply can’t wait to go mud plugging with this one (what? it’s a legitimate vehicle type).

Pure
It’s Pure, unadulterated fun.
Vying for your hard-earned, dirt-racing dollar is Pure, the forthcoming title from Black Rock Studio (formerly Climax Racing, the developers of the Moto GP and ATV Offroad Fury franchises). The game is best described as ATV’s meet SSX and, like it’s closest competitors, is all about drop dead gorgeous adrenalin based races where you accumulate boost to take advantage of a myriad of sneaky track shortcuts. Tricking is the order of the day here, and the only thing more impressive than nailing a 30 ft heel clicker is, well, getting nailed when attempting a 30 ft heel clicker. Keep and eye out for this bad boy.

PixelJunk Monsters Encore
The tower of power continues…
Sure, this isn’t a big budget extravaganza – but we don’t care. PixelJunk Monsters is the best/ most addictive thing since sliced heroin bread. For the uninitiated, gameplay involves stopping waves of enemies by placing defensive towers around your castle. Towers have distinct attributes, such as rapid fire, short distance, air defense, slowing abilities, etc. The only downside with the game is this: we need more of it, now. Sony has answered our prayers thankfully and the Encore expansion pack is on the way. It will include an additional 15 levels, including levels inspired by Pac-Man and Space Invaders. Also, the ice tower is now available without gems and the Tesla tower has been reduced in price. Awesome. Zappy.

Guitar Hero World Tour
Nobody rocks like… Springfield!
Red Octane is set to throw a meaty punch in the battle for the best music game with the fourth iteration of the popular Guitar Hero series. Taking some cues from its upstart rival Rockband, GHWT will also offer the full band peripheral setup with two guitars, microphone, and a three pad drum set that also has a kick and a cymbal. If that isn’t rocking enough, Activision has also announced plans to include a Music Studio mode that will let you forge your own rock and then swap it online with your mates. Early reports state that the drum peripheral won’t be as annoyingly loud as Rockband’s. That’s great news — but, will we be able to play some cowbell? Everything needs more cowbell.

Rock Band
Access to awesome… denied?
Speaking of awesome music games on the horizon; there’s Rock Band. However, for those of you about to rock, we awkwardly half salute you and hope that you’ve packed a lunch – because this patently amazing game has still yet to have a firm Australian release date. For those of you who have yet to import and experience it, Rock Band is a cooperative multiplayer powerhouse that supports a microphone, lead guitar, bass guitar, and a four pad drum set. The game has been out in the states since Christmas and has recently been released in the UK to critical acclaim. EA Australia, if you’re listening, we NEED this game, where’s the love?

Shiki-Tei
Two green thumbs up
Aside from building houses, starting fights at the pub, and opening a non twist-top beer with your eye socket – the next manliest activity in the world is gardening. Sony has realized this too and they’re tapping into your dormant Don Burke gene with their forthcoming downloadable gardening title Shiki-Tei. Are we making this game up, just to mess with you? Nope, it exists. You get a garden, you grow crap in said garden, and animals visit (and presumably defecate in) your garden. Sounds different, but we’re cautiously optimistic about the relaxation potential of this one. We also hope there is a ‘Greek backyard option’ – sweet, sweet concrete lions.

Διαβαζα αυτο εδω το αρθρο απο το gameover.gr και δειτε τι εστειλε η MS σαν development kit στην Rare για το Xbox360..

"Τo πρώτο development kit που διέθεσε η Microsoft για το Xbox360 ήταν ένα τεράστιο G5 της Apple, με επεξεργαστή PowerPC, 1GB RAM και κάρτα γραφικών ATI DirectX 9.0. "

LoL; :D
Α ρε apple τι κανεις :D

EA breaks silence on Godfather sequel

Posted on June 18th, 2008 at 04:38 EDT
Electronic Arts’ John Riccitiello has revealed the first tidbits of info regarding its forthcoming sequel to the 2006 movie tie-in, The Godfather.

Speaking at the William Blair & Company's investor meeting yesterday, Riccitiello confirmed that the title is currently in development at EA’s Redwood Shores studio, which is also in the process of working on the Survival Horror title, Dead Space.

Riccitiello commented: “It's a game that I think we'll be talking a lot about this fall," adding, “You can play this game both at the street level, much like a GTA-style game, but you can also play it top-down, almost like you're in an RTS, controlling the strategy of the boroughs so you can see what's going on..."

He also named The Godfather II’s executive producer as Hunter Smith, who previously worked on a number of James Bond titles with the publisher.

A sequel to the original game has always been on the cards, however, with EA commenting in 2006 of its intention "to make two or three" titles based on the popular movie franchise.

PlayStation Experience Back on Patrol

+ Posted by Andrew Adams // Marketing Program Manager
This Summer, our two PlayStation trucks, The PlayStation Experience & The PlayStation Patrol are back out on the road, traveling around the country to popular events and concerts to showcase the hottest PlayStation products, and, thanks to some really exciting changes, they are better than ever.
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3290/...fb343e8fa8.jpg
We’ve transformed the PlayStation Experience truck into a social and community-focused environment for gamers with the addition of several highly-interactive and hands-on gaming areas.
We are showing a pre-release version of LittleBigPlanet to consumers in a specially themed area. LittleBigPlanet is certain to be one of the biggest games to hit PS3 this year and we are offering an incredibly rare opportunity chance to play the game months before it even releases!
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3236/...e2bbb23ed0.jpg
A new interactive Rock Band stage enables consumers to try out their skills with the blockbuster game Rock Band and register for our summer-long contest “Take the Stage with Rock Band On Tour,” where you and up to three additional band members have the chance to win a trip to perform on a side stage at an actual concert event! You can check out the current leaders and learn more about the contest and it’s rules at http://www.takethestagewithrockband.com/.
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3255/...4c0826dcd5.jpg
We also have a specially built SingStar Stage where SingStar PS3 comes alive as aspiring rock stars sing along to their favorite songs while watching the actual music video on screen from top artists including The Killers, U2, Smashing Pumpkins, Outkast, R.E.M., Radiohead, Britney Spears and The Pussycat Dolls.
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3259/...f2b9d2f234.jpg
We still left in plenty of regular game stations so you can check out many of the latest releases on PlayStation 3, including the exclusive Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and PLAYSTATION Network (PSN) titles such as PAIN, echochrome and PixelJunk Monsters.
The PlayStation Patrol truck has also gone through it’s own metamorphosis. We created the PlayStation Player’s Lounge, a competition area complete with lounge seating and two 52-inch LCD big screen TVs for some of the best big screen battles ever.
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3243/...a71db16596.jpg
We did not want to stop there, so we built in two Gran Turismo 5 Prologue game stations complete with racing seats complete with Logitech Driving Force GT steering wheels!
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3229/...55b8e7d6c4.jpg
With the five interior 40-inch LCDs still in play, along with tons of other screens on the outside, we left plenty of room for gamers to check out all the latest and best from PlayStation!
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3240/...184873eb63.jpg
We’ll be updating both trucks with new games throughout the year, including exclusive access to this year’s most-anticipated titles prior to their general availability. Click here and here to see whether the trucks are rumbling towards a town near you.
