Website says 21:00 (9pm) but which time zone? I'm guessing CET judging by the site, which puts the announcement in another 4.5 hours or so

Edit: Chris
Don't quote me on that...I'm just using relationship to the website location...It's the only guess I have

Chris3995182d ago (Edited 5182d ago )

I'll find out with my morning cup of tea tomorrow :) Seriously, this gen has been all about the hype; I think I'm immune to it at this point.

Edit: 4.5 hours! Nice find!

lars2thev5182d ago

It's the time of The Netherlands +1 GMT.

RedDragan5182d ago

So 20:00 GMT then. Cool.

Who has the link by the way to the announcement?

sikbeta5182d ago

·Twisted Metal PS3
·Syphon Filter PS3
·The Getaway PS3

Gaming FTW!!!

FreeMonk5182d ago

Killzone 3, Twisted Metal 3 etc.....GIVE ME PARAPPA THE RAPPER 3!!!

ThanatosDMC5182d ago (Edited 5182d ago )

I'm hoping for Starhawk 256 with mech suits, lots of armored vehicles, capital ships, frigates, fighters, bombers, etc or something completely different but completely incredible.

fedex6825182d ago

The PS2 is completing 10 years today and a new sequel is being announced for the PS3 today. Coincidence?

Mr_Bun5182d ago (Edited 5182d ago )

You can't blame Thanatos...as PS3 owners, we've come to expect high standards with our exclusives

Sev5182d ago

@ fedex...

I was thinking the same thing. I'm guessing it's a flagship PS2 title, perfect time to announce it.

sikbeta5182d ago

@ThanatosDMC & TheHater

256 is asking too much, but 128Players + Great Graphics = Epic

Gaming FTW!!!

TheHater5182d ago

yeah, we PS3 owners are spoiler with quantity and quality :)
Can't wait to get home and play my Heavy Rain DLC and then hop back on WKC

jack_burt0n5182d ago

Ryuha1234h5182d ago

I'm confuse here. Is this same anouncement from GTTV or another anouncement.

Darkstorn5182d ago

Guerilla Games is based in the Netherlands... Could this mean Killzone 3?

gaffyh5182d ago

Is this the same GTTV reveal or different one? Any Dutch speakers here?

mabreu5182d ago

Maybe its a FPS title like Killzone 3 or Resistance 3 because they can compete with the release of Halo:Reach.

I'm hoping for Twisted Metal. C'mon David Jaffe!!

vhero5182d ago (Edited 5182d ago )

Its weird sony doing this its usually MS doing this.. Oh and its timesplitters 4 exclusive :). You read it here first!!!

Blaster_Master5182d ago

New game announced for the ps3? OMG Im excited.

shadow27975182d ago

Am I the only one who sees the irony in writing 20:00 "PM"?

At least it's not in the title anymore.

Babylonian5182d ago

The site is reporting from a Twitter account of Dave Epke where he is saying: "Around 21:00 (Dutch time, GMT+1) a new PS3 game will be announced, no right guesses so far"

So that means that what we have been speculating the last days is not what is going to be announced.

Funny thing is I know Dave Epke, he used to be one of my mentors during my internship at SCE Benelux. Very nice and funny guy.

Syronicus5182d ago

Hey, Enter the Gecko was hilarious.

News for Killzon3 sometime this week?
I mean this is it, if is not KZ3 it will be
a new IP from GG, but I hope is KZ3

Double075182d ago

Its not Killzone 3, Motorstorm 3 or Starhawk apparently

http://www.neogaf.com/forum...

Second post on the page, then Geoff says further down that its not MS3 or Starhawk =/

Quotes: "Guys, I know you love to whip yourselves into a frenzy but no, we are not showing you a Killzone 3 trailer tonight on GTTV. The trailer we're showing is definitely a big frontline title for PS3 though. I believe some info will be online in advance of the trailer."

And "Not Starhawk or MS3! Tune in and see."

Im thinking Syphon Filter for sure now.

archemides5185182d ago (Edited 5182d ago )

it's something stupid :(

obviously infamous 2

we won5182d ago

Announce a new game on the day the FF13 embargo ends? Hmmm.

I did know it well be a sequel, So i well go to KillZone 3.

NateNater5182d ago

I think it'll be a sequel to a popular PS2 game seeing as how PS2 is 10 years old today.

Perhaps a new Jak and Daxter?

PS3Freak5182d ago

Damn, i never even thought about Jak & Daxter, i hope it is.

anti-gamer5182d ago

I forgot abut Jak & Daxter, jak4 using uncharted engin it well be g8.

JamMyth5182d ago (Edited 5182d ago )

Mr Bun...if it's 20:00 GMT, then it's 15:00 EST (EST is GMT -5)

"Am I the only one who sees the irony in writing 20:00 "PM"?"
I'd say it's not Irony, but a little redundant (yes, I'm a grammar snob) :-)

*EDIT*, sorry, 15:00 = 3:00 PM

PS3Freak5182d ago

What? an hour and 15 minutes? it's 1:45 here. SWEEET.

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga20h ago(Edited 20h ago)

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow1d 15h ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo18219h ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie10h ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

RNTody22h ago(Edited 22h ago)

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno21h ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno19h ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii6h ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno4h ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
