360 thread? No way. Halo thread? That was the plan, but someone just had to spoil the party


Anyways, GDC starts today, so there should be some cool new PS3 info coming.

Every screenshot looks poster-worthy...so much drool...

Even better is to just enter the checkout with nothing (or less than the total) in your wallet. It will only take the exact amount from your credit card unlike the other consoles.

You can also put multiple things in your cart and download at a later time rather than right away.

Your download list actually isn't tied to the console, it's tied to your account. You can set up the account on multiple consoles and download the content to 5 of them for however many times you need.

Many have interpreted this feature as legal game sharing. I think Sony set this in place to share amongst friends/family but didn't intend it for complete strangers... Then again, with Home coming, maybe they are encouraging people to reach out to random users out there.

I Love the competition, going to be fun watching MS and Sony duke it out with the online features. While PS3 and 360 owners reap the rewards

also a little late, but for those who don't know, Warhawk will now be Multiplayer only, and download only from the PS store. I just want to know how much it will cost, will still probably pick it up. Looks pretty solid to me

Wow, awesome footage. That shit is ludicrous.

What?....crap...well, if it means the devs can get to work on a next-gen Twisted Metal....*drool*

Apparently the rumors about Warhawk having a troubled development schedule were true.

Theres some new footage of Warhawk as well, seems it will have both ground and aerial combat in MP.

[wsheit]

Just found this:

http://kotaku.com/gaming/warhawk/rum...nly-239025.php

Sounds like it's pretty up in the air.

[Lebron]

watch the new IGN video, the devs come out and say it will be an online-only game for now.

and heres the Kotaku link :P
http://kotaku.com/gaming/incognito/w...ime-241265.php

Can't say I'm really bummed. If the price is good and online is solid, judging by the IGN video it looks like it, I think it will be alright. Would of liked for a SP though, hopefully they can add one later on.

[wsheit]

crap....I'm primarily a SP gamer...but I suppose I'll give this a go if the price is right.

New PS3 Services and Games to be Announced at Game Developers Conference


Another news from the trusted (by me at least) from the British gamesindustry.biz. Phil Harrison revealed that at GDC on March 7 at San Francisco, new PS3 services (probably Online services) and new games. It also says that Sony will also reveal new devkits for PS3 games.


Did anyone see the new footage of Heavenly Sword on the TV show Heroes?

WHAT!? ARRRGGGG...must kill sony!
That's it, that's the last straw I've put up with them acting like asses, but this is has formed new hate a hate that will NEVER be reversed. NEVER! Warhawk was the only reason I was going to buy a PS3 then it was FA2, but FA2 sucked, now the're buchering the SP campagin it for what? MP only?...This is like them with VF5.(SP only, no online MP)
I just want to beat them to a pulp.

[Lebron]

Yeah, Theclow, its not really Sony's fault there. Bash the developers :P

[wsheit]

I just don't get it. This is the brilliant studio that made Twisted Metal Black, right? I mean, I STILL play that on occasion, and it had a really enjoyable single-player mode. Furthermore, I don't see why something couldn't be done along those line. Make the opponents drones but keep the maps the same. Oh well...bring on Lair. If THAT goes downloadable...

It's a conspiracy sony is trying their hardest to suck the fun out of the PS3. RESULT:Even more fun is sucked out of the PS3.

I doubt its the dev's fault, even if it was well ill bring the bat anyone up from some bashing?
RESULT:If it's the dev's they get a firm bashing, If it's sony well lets just say the'll go up in flames. [/psyco mode](For now...Muhahahah)

New Playstation Home Trailer

Looks like a knock off the Sims, still, looks pretty cool. I like it a lot more than the Mii parade service, actually :P

*runs*

Killzone Shown at GDC, Phill says that it will make a big appearance at E3 in July.

New arcade title announced, Little Big Planet, looks pretty awesome if I must say so myself.

I have to say Sony's PSN network is starting to shape up nicely. It may not stack up to XBL quite yet in the overall content category, but list of services and features, the claim could be made. Good job Sony

[Kisuke06]

Playstation Home is very good! And the game, Little Big Planet, too! The music is very nice.

[Lebron]

Yea, Little Big Planet, looks down right amazing. Wasn't expecting that. I actually made a mistake, its not a arcade title. There will be a demo released on the PSN network this fall, and the retail disc game will be out sometime in 2008
