Ok, what the FUCK? Can we stop with these shitty as fuck viral advertisements? Sometimes they're clever. Sometimes. But now that they're everywhere, people are shitting out this sort of crap. Granted, it wasn't as bad as that infamous "All I want for Christmas is a PSP" shit from a few months back, but COME ON.

The commercials you see on TV for Motorstorm and so forth? Those are fine. Gets me thinking about picking up another one of these things. But this shit's just a waste of time. Yeesh. If anything it makes me want to get another PS3 LESS.

A whole slew of Heavenly Sword media just popped up over in the GAF thread, but since everything's all scattered about, I'll just do my best to bring it all together.

A warning: The story link pretty much ruin the game for those who love to keep the story under wraps, so don't click it if that's the case.

still look amazing ^^ I think it will be one of the first big hit of the ps3 ^^

Slayer X Mar 6, 2007 04:55 PM

Perhaps since it's somewhat similar to God of War. Resistance and MotorStorm are killer-aps in my opinion, but due to the limited audience right now it has kind of undercut their success a bit. Everything should kick into gear though 03/23

March 23rd? What exactly is going to revolutionize the console on the 23rd? Is it a release date?

Slayer X Mar 6, 2007 06:01 PM

It's just the European launch which is pratically half of the world's market so the games that we've had since November will get a second chance later this month. Also Sony is moving into full swing with everything that they're doing and are starting to get things together and out the door. Ex Demos, Trailers, new PSN, and possibly PS HOME

Oh, I see. Damn, I was wondering when they were going to launch in Europe. Hopefully this really does kick things into gear, since they could stand to focus more on their games than on the other aspects of their console (which they're doing pretty good job at as first timers).

A new IGN hands-on with Warhawk aryicle.

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/770/770561p1.html

There's a lot of information, however I can see where dropping the single player mode has definatly beefed up the online mode. All I can say is that this is going to be one hell of a game for clans, and the best combat flying game since Crimson Skies on the original X-box.

Inhert Mar 7, 2007 04:17 PM

Introducing Home.

I'm pretty surprise by the feature. I was expecting a little box room with nothing really to do in there beside showing our trophy our something. We get pretty much more and the graphic look pretty cool!

it does really feel like a Home! I'm really looking forward to this fall^^

Slayer X Mar 7, 2007 04:23 PM

Holy crap, Sony definatly blew the Mii channel away for me. Friend chatting, billiards, home customization, character customization. This is pratically a game on it's own. Man I can't wait for fall now. And if they pull this off I'd say that this is probably better then X-box LIVE too. (for 90% of the world doesn't get all the video marketplace stuff like the US so MS deserves to lose their online crown just for neglagence)

Infernal Monkey Mar 7, 2007 05:14 PM

I said WOW, Home is bloody huge! It seems to be like The Sims, except interesting, and with stuff to actually do.

Holy shit, Little Big Planet is the best game ever

Soldier Mar 7, 2007 05:37 PM

HOME is indeed nice, but this thread fails miserably for not talking about the real star of the conference today.

Say hello to Little Big Planet.

As if the beautiful 2D/3D visuals weren't enough, you are given a large amount of freedom as you can customize your ragdoll character with whatever outfits you can think up, and you have full customization over the levels, which you can share with your online mates.

This is easily one of the best game concepts I've seen in years. Instant buy for me. It can't come soon enough.

edit: damn it, monkey. :(

Wow, this is definitely a bit more than I was expecting. Here's some more stuff on LBP:

Quote:

Another innovative example of the Game 3.0 vision is a brand-new community-based world called LittleBigPlanet. LittleBigPlanet starts with players learning about the powers of their chosen characters to interact physically with the environment. There are obstacles to explore, items to collect and puzzles to solve -- requiring community-based teamwork and brainpower. As players begin to explore, their creative skills grow and they will be ready to start creating and modifying their surroundings -- the first step to sharing them with the whole world. Ultimately, levels of the game will be user generated on a worldwide scale and will change everyday as players create, publish and share their own levels.


Users have the power to design, shape and build both objects and entire locations for others to play. Players can make their world as open or as secretive to explore as they like. When it's ready, they can invite anyone within the LittleBigPlanet universe to come and explore their "patch," or they can go and explore everybody else's. Other notable features and characteristics of the community-based game include:


-- Players craft their own individual experience. There's not just one way
to play.
-- Unlimited possibilities for user-created content -- players can
customize everything: their characters, the landscape around them and
their own "patch" on LittleBigPlanet.
-- Players discover and win new skills and items to aid them on their
creative journey.
-- Online and offline multiplayer modes -- work as a team or get
competitive.



A fully-featured sample version of LittleBigPlanet is expected on the PLAYSTATION Network this fall, with a full version expected to be made available in early 2008.

wow that game seem just amazing! damn fall is so far away ; ;

Skexis Mar 7, 2007 06:10 PM

Does anyone have any details on one of the lost launch titles, Metronome? I was pretty excited about it because it used that kind of German expressionist art style similar to Nightmare Before Christmas, and it was an adventure title, too.

I was surprised that PS3 was leading off with an adventure game, but then I stopped hearing about it, and it doesn't look to have a release date yet.

espressivo Mar 7, 2007 07:31 PM

Holy shit! This Home thing sounds pretty cool, but what bugs me is if you have to walk just to somewhere. Like if you want to access videos, you have to walk to the theatre, if you want to go to the playstation store, you actually have to walk to the store. If it does work like this, it'll be cool at first but it'll quickly become irritating.

Those shots of little big planet are amazing, everything looks so real and life like. I almost thought it was real. simply amazing.

SouthJag Mar 7, 2007 08:16 PM

.....<3

That's incredible! The avatars look very detailed, and I like the MMO-esque Community Space. Moreover, I hope it's easy to navigate and fun to explore.

So this Little Big Planet -- wow. Kinda hard to describe, but it certainly looks fun. Definitely excited about owning a PS3 now more than ever. Little Big Planet and the Playstation Home have certainly added some unique and truly next-gen features to the gaming world.

Soldier Mar 8, 2007 12:13 AM

Here is a video of the Sony keynote. 35 minutes in you'll see Little Big Planet's customization features. I am truly amazed at the amount of freedom you are being given in both the game and the controlling of your characters. This is going to be absolutely spectacular.

Kairi Li Mar 8, 2007 07:12 AM

Well its nice to see that while I still disagree with the price of the PS3 (Unless its lowered and I'm unaware of it.), looks like things are starting to look up for that heavy console.

It doesn't have a publisher yet. There were an interview with one of the developers in Edge (They're all Swedish) and they talked about they didn't have a publisher. I'll try to dig that interview up. It was fairly recent.

Slayer X Mar 8, 2007 01:00 PM

Does anyone know at about what time the PSN updates usually take place? There should be a large system update along with a new version of the Store packed with new demos and trailers. Anyone know?

TheXeno Mar 8, 2007 01:14 PM

Heres 3 trailers of Little Big Planet one i believe is a part of the keynote...

http://www.gametrailers.com/gamepage.php?id=4491

The whole concept of Home sounds pretty neat. If it includes free co-op arcade games even better.

I"m really impressed by Little Big Plant, building a level with friends especially a 2.5d one sounds pretty nice. The interface seems simple enough and not too complicated.

Inhert Mar 8, 2007 01:40 PM

I'm not sure if the big update they talk about is this week. There's some rumor that it should be today because every Thursday they update the PSN, but here was no confirmation that we'll get that big update before the European launch...

I'm pretty sure they will give use the big update the 22 to go with the launch...

Metal Sphere Mar 8, 2007 01:58 PM

New info on R&C: Tools of Destruction from 1UP, a nice cleaned up screen and very nice looking artwork:

You're on rails, yet the backdrops were pretty damn amazing, as one section had Ratchet navigating through this enormous asteroid field (think Star Wars Episode II) while dodging enemy fire. I suspect you'll encounter this type of gameplay whenever you travel from planet to planet.
