Official PS3 thread - Part 3
Here's the last post in the old thread:
_______________
Don't know if this was posted yet.
EA's NBA Live '07 has been dropped for the PS3 and Sonic has been delayed until next year(Holiday '06). Isn't the NBA Live demo on the kiosks? That is fucked up if true.
Both articles are from Kotaku.com
NBA Live '07 -
Quote:
PS3 owners will have to wait until next year for some official NBA ball bouncing action. Electronic Arts' NBA Live 07, announced back at E3 in May, has been scrapped outright. EA's PR person David Tinson points out:
"We are concentrating our efforts on creating a spectacular NBA Street: Homecourt [instead of porting NBA Live 07]. [Homecourt] is coming to the PS3 and Xbox 360 early next year. "
Other than being used as an E3 example of what the system's hardware could do, game play details were never disclosed about what exactly was PS3-rrific about NBA Live 07. The first half of next year, NBA Street: Homecourt will hit the Xbox 360 and *hopefully* the PS3. Brian Ashcraft
Sonic the Hedgehog -
Quote:
Those of you looking forward to spending more time with Shadow the Hedgehog, this time on your PlayStation 3, are going to have to wait a little bit longer. Another PS3 title is going to miss the launch, and this time it's Sega's own flagship mascot, Sonic.
Why the delay, this close to launch? It seems Sega wants to spend more time working on downloadable content, but didn't specify exactly what that downloadable content was. I can only assume they're working on new ways to ruin my positive childhood memories of the Sega Genesis or they've finally inked a deal to get some 50 Cent tracks for Shadow's in-car stereo.
The game is specified now as "holiday 2006". Hopefully, they'll update it to "never". Sorry, I'm surly tonight. Still bitter about that whole Shadow thing.

this whole PS3 ebay thing could turn into a major nightmare for a buyer with the way Paypal treats these situations.

Not knocking that list, but it seems like most of those non-exclusives could have already been played, finished and traded-in on the 360. You would think Sony could have gotten a couple of those games held back for a simultaneous release. Namely, Rainbow Six, Need for Speed, Marvel and COD3.
And as for Fight Night and Blazing Angels...wouldn't sequels have been more approriate? Full Auto came out at roughly the same time as Fight Night. I do realize that there are some additions to Fight Night on PS3, but isn't Round 4 right around the corner?

The launch titles are so lame, nothing screaming must have. The only game that i really want to play on the PS3 is Marvel Ultimate Alliance. I compared the screen shots with the Xbox360 and the Wii, PS3 has the best graphic. Now, i'm not sure what resolution was used to capture the screen shots, so there probably not much difference between the Xbox360 and PS3 version. The other game is CoD3, but it's available on the other consoles as well, so nothing special.
Again, i think i'll wait and see, buying a PS3 now and end up playing PS2 games on it or play BR movies not worth the cash. Seriously, i think the Wii probably generate a way better return in terms of game fun during the first month of launch than the PS3. I'm not saying that b/c i'm not camping out to get one. Hey, i think it will be difficult to find a Wii during launch week. Speaking of Wii, the thread is up to part 5!

Got to play on the PS3 at Target today. NBA and Motorstorm were the only demo's. I thought Motorstorm was good, but the motion control thing will definitely take some getting used to. I think one of the problems is the Target kiost setup. The way the controller is connected, it makes it very difficult to twist the controller. It also makes it so your face is about 10in from the screen, which sucks.
Has anyone played COD3 on the PS3 yet? I'd like to know about the framerate compared to the 360 version. I'd also like to know if it's got all the same multiplayer options.

No IR on the PS3. Bluetooth only.
