"Animate characters and objects for a stylised unrealistic game." - sound interesting. If you read rest of that page, it seems Sony Cambridge, London and Liverpool are all working on PS3 game(s) or are looking for PS3 devs.

kaveti66165997d ago

Interesting? It sounds like the description of nearly every game ever made. How can that be interesting?

sikbeta5996d ago

Really? interrogation symbol wasn't needed.

unrealgamer585997d ago

LOL youre second comment was funny

doctorstrange5997d ago

Rules out 8 days and The Getaway, I just hope its not another Singstar. Sony London Studios is a massive studio, so it is probably only one of the games they have in development right now, here's hoping for a 2010 release of at least one of them.

I'm just going to throw that one out there...
Take your guess at what established PS3 franchise?

I'm probably going to be horrifically wrong but I would like to see a World Tour Soccer be brought up to the PS3 system I know it said well established "PS3" franchise but I would like to see what they could do. I mean they did it with This is Football so what's stopping them, right?

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle25d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy33d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
