PS3 Rally

Hey guys!

More video fun today!
This time: Metal Gear Online! For those of you that don’t know it, its the standalone online version of MGS4. And proves to be very promising, at that!

Hey guys!

What would be a nice fresh start to the week…maybe some Leipzig game videos?

I’ve got here for you some jam packed goodies! Call of Duty 4 AND 20 minutes of Killzone 2 footage!

Seems like both will be VERY fun on the PS3.

I must say, Killzone 2 DOES look better than the CG in some places..

Hey guys!

It seems like rumours are that a PS3 Dual Shock 3 controller will be released…along with GT5:Prologue! In November!

And speaking of November, I think it may well be the highlight month for all gamers this year….and this next statement may well add to the hype!

News from Leipzig! Call of Duty 4 has been dated…..for (mark this down guys) November 5th.

And mark down November 15th and November 17th if I’m not mistaken..think I am though.
Those are the dates for Crysis and Unreal Tournament 3 respectively!

Although Crysis may not be on the PS3 at first, rumours are it will be….just later.

Heck, why not take the whole of November off…you’ll be busy playing CoD4, Unreal Tournament 3, and CoD4! And a few more goodies at that!

Seems like the PS3 has been revealed to be able to record digital TV! You can stream it to your PSP, download it staright to your USB, or even watch it on your PSP while you record another show. Awesomeness! To the max!

Hey guys!

Did some digging and found some pretty awesome information about the new upcoming Metal Gear Online!

Metal Gear Online is a standalone PS3 game that will feature up to 16 players pitted against each other based on the MGS4 gameplay and setting.

The player can upgrade skills that the character can use such as hacking, CQC mastery and more, which can be leveled up. The player can keep tabs on allies and enemies with nanomachines.

Players will have the ability to “hack” another player’s character to steal information from their nanomachines, such as the locations of his allies. This is is how the SOP system from Metal Gear Solid 4 is going to be implemented as a gameplay feature in MGO.

And it seems like you can participate in the online beta test! However, it’s Only in Japan. Sorry guys!
If your in Japan and your interested, go here: https://mgo2web.konami.com/jp/mgo2/t4176020/mgo_beta/ and it should steer your direction towards entering. Only 3000 players from all the people who signed up will be selected. Dunno if you still can sign up, as it’s only about 4 days before the actual test…but do give it a try!

Of course, naturally, there’s some screenshots for you here to feast on!

For those interested in those soldiers with the hearts around them, and are not familiar with the game, you may want to check this out if your curious

If your like me and get great deals from SCEA (Sony Computer Entertainment Australia), then you may want to look at this offer…

Controversial to all logic and physics, the demand for the PS3 actually topped that of the Xbox 360 and the Wii in the month of July!

Seems like the official price cut of the 60GB PS3 down $100 (USD), the PS3 was elevated to a higher demand position than the Xbox 360 OR the Wii in the United States, as a matter of fact. Sales spiked 144% following the price cut, and demand was up 50% throughout the entire month of July.

Although this lated just a few days, it shows that the PS3 does have a fan base going under it, ready to support it when the time is right (or when the price is right).

More news! and more, and more! (well facts this time)

Hey everybody!

Seems like Sony is reckoning that the PS3 will only have a failure rate of just 0.2%! This defies the industry’s usual estimate, at 3-5%.

And..this is very good! Seeming as the Xbox 360 is at 3% and a lot higher in some cases.

Remember in the early days when the Xbox 360’s would overheat and fry up in some cases~ Well this refers to that. And also the renowned and feared “red ring of death”.

Good news for the PS3, at last. Seems like Sony DOES come with quality, after all!

Microsoft came up with a pretty awesome system:Gamercards. These cards followed you around with you wherever you went, linking you with every game you played.

Now Sony is striking back. With Gamercards, of course!
It seems that Sony has included Gamercards with its PS3 Home service, releasing this coming October! (That’s one month, guys!)

With Gamercards, all your achievements will be tracked and be part of the PS3 Trophy system-another counterstrike like the Xbox 360 Achievements.

Seemed like Sony dropped the bomb, and Microsoft couldn’t defuse and got blown up!

It seems that Mark Rein of Epic Games (he’s the vice president) has stated that due to the Blu-ray format has allowed them to stack and pack more Unreal Tournament 3 onto the PS3 version, which may be much more than what the Xbox 360 will receive.

The Xbox 360 is only loaded with a DVD drive (now HD-DVD, correct me if I’m wrong), which means that the DVD it will be using cannot store NEARLY as much as the PS3’s blue ray disk. (50 GB vs 8 GB is it?) Microsoft once argued that it was not necessary to have that much storage space, however it seems they are wrong, very wrong.

You’d rather have heap loads more space on your media disks, which includes games, than just storage, like the 120 GB Xbox 360 Elite! Which is just encouraging piracy better, I’m guessing.

And according to Wikipedia, it seems that Sony has negotiated a deal to let Epic Games release Unreal Tournament 3 exclusively for the PS3 for the entirety of 2007, while the Xbox 360 version comes in 2008. Woo! Epic Games for the win!

Seems like Microsoft’s battle bot just got run over by Sony driving a Leviathan. (a massive truck/tank/ultimate 5 man fighting machine)

Hey guys!

Lots of news is coming, so be sure to stay tuned these few days for extra coverage on the PS3!

First off: COD4! Superiority! PS3!

As some of you may have noticed/read/known/was told, the Xbox 360 will get the better version of Madden NFL 2008. To counter this, however, it seems that the PS3 will be getting the superior version of CoD4!

Call of Duty 4, which won many awards at E3 2007, including best trailer and most anticipated game, will appear to have the superior version on the PS3, since the developers are loving what they are able to do on the hardware, with more success and freedom due to Blue-ray and additional power compared to the Xbox 360.

This means if you want the true Call of Duty experience, you’re gonna have to get the PS3 version. Oh yeah.
