PSU Writes:
"In June 2007, director of third party relations at Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) Michael Shorrock revealed on the Official PlayStation Blog that Sony and Rockstar had come to an agreement on developing a new PS3 exclusive.
"As part of our long standing relationship with Rockstar, and the incredible success for both companies with the cultural icon that is Grand Theft Auto, we've agreed to the PlayStation exclusive rights of the next great franchise from the Rockstar studios," Shorrock wrote.
"Rockstar really wanted to make a game that you can truly only do on PS3, harnessing the power of CELL and Blu-ray disc and this deal lets them do just that...This is really a win-win situation for both companies."
President and CEO of SCEA Jack Tretton further discussed the new agreement with Rockstar on Spike TV's Game Head show with Geoff Keighley, confirming that the unnamed project was not L.A. Noire and that Sony was able to release Take-Two from GTA IV exclusivity in exchange for acquiring the rights to the publisher's next franchise.
"What we're really excited about is the next great franchise from Take-Two and in exchange for letting them out of that exclusive (Grand Theft Auto IV), we've got the rights to the next great franchise from Take-Two."
So, what could the Rockstar PS3 exclusive be? Let's take a look."
RDR 1 was a great game, but the lack of screen time for some characters, boring horse riding, and lack of mission variety takes away the fun at times.
Yeah
It's as good as you remember
Feels like one of those "10 HARSH realities of Re-watching" articles
I liked it a bit better because I didn’t think it had many “small nitpicky” things RDR2 had that on its own meant nothing but when a lot built up it was annoying. For example getting off your horse and you had to reselect your weapons again or walking around the camp slowly. None issues but built up with others sometimes it was a little frustrating at times.
Yeeehaw! Howdy, partner! Saddle up and mosey on down to check out the best western-themed video games you can rustle up on the PS4 today.
While not on the PS4, if you want a pretty imaginative and downright fun Cowboy game you should check out Call of Juarez: Gunslinger. Not only is it a great arcade FPS in its own right but one that has some Narrative Elements that interact with the Gameplay in a pretty surprising and novel way. Something a few of the AAAAAAAA games should be looking at in order to marry the Narrative with the Gameplay better.
The best part is that you can get it for a few dollars on GOG or STEAM during their sales.

This list compiles some of the top games we desperately want to get a sequel. Please give us more of our favorite games!"
Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..
I doubt it's vaporware. It doesn't seem logical that Sony would just back out of a huge business deal with Rockstar.
"What we're really excited about is the next great franchise from Take-Two and in exchange for letting them out of that exclusive (Grand Theft Auto IV), we've got the rights to the next great franchise from Take-Two."
If Sony is willing to give up exclusivity of GTA IV, be sure they want something for it. No information doesn't necessarily mean no progress. Here's hoping anyway.
Who knows it could be another manhunt or bully for all we know. But since they said its soemthing that'll utilize the ps3 to the fullest it might even be an entirely new franchise.
Either way I'm happy, Rockstar make brilliant games and I'm definetly sold on any game that comes from them.
well it been said that they will put vice city ..liberty city and las vegas from each grand therft auto game maps into one big game together with all maps together ...so hey it could be grand therft auto 5 or change name a bit
Utilizing the power of the cell does not equal profit.
Since Rockstar is a third party developer, why in the world would they utilize the cell, if its gonna cost them money.
Not to mention that utilizing the cell isnt anything more impressive then utilizing the cpu of the competition.
E.g Gears of War 2 Compared to KZ2, there isnt much of a difference, besides some pre rendered smoke, which isnt featured in GeoW2 because the unreal engine doesnt support it.
However, the Crysis engine supports it, and will provide the 360 as well as the ps3 with real time rendered smoke.
Watch, it's going to be Table Tennis 2 lol. That would be one hell of a ping pong game though...
