The dutch website PS3 Only recently held an interview with Dave Epke, New media manager and product manager of SCE Benelux. They talked about Sony's preparations for the European launch, the games and things to expect for the future. Below you can read a few highlights.
-MotorStorm should be the ultimate next-gen game. Resistance is also pretty 'next-gen', especially online.
-Downloadable games like Super Rub a Dub
and FlOw are also pretty next-gen, thanks to the innovative controls and the high definition graphics.
-There are a lot of games still unannounced for 2007. And they will definitely supprise you!
-Uncharted, Lair, Heavenly Sword, MGS4, Killzone and Ratchet & Clank will all be released in 2007 and will be pretty amazing.
-More connectivity functions between the PSP and PS3 will be announced soon.
-There will be a whole bunch of new features and improvements coming with a new firmwareupdate in march, but Dave could only talk about the multitask functionality.
It seems the PLAYSTATION 3 has a bright future. For the entire interview, click on the story link below. You can click on the link 'english translation' if you can't speak Dutch.
Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.
Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.
That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.
Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.
I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
nuff said!! i`m happy
good times folks ... good times
then announce those stupid games so i can have a reason to buy one and they better be good, if this is more sony lies i will not buy a ps3
Sweeeet
That's a lot of games in a short period of time. This time next year would probably be a good time to start comparing the 360 and the PS3.
Anyone see that Wii commercial with Tiger? That was a great idea...
