Bayonetta PS3 Port $5 Cheaper than 360 Version

by Chad Lakkis on November 2, 2009 at 12:47 pm

bayonetta-cheaper-on-ps3

According to GameStop’s online pricing, the much discussed PlayStation 3 port of Bayonetta will apparently be available to consumers at a discounted price of five dollars ($54.99) over its Xbox 360 counterpart ($59.99).

If you are late in joining the conversation, Sega’s Bayonetta title was developed for the Xbox 360 and then ported over to the PlayStation 3. The pixel crunching scrutiny then began, and arguments as to which version was “better” ensued. Read more…

God of War I and II coming to PS3

by Sam Naylor on August 31, 2009 at 11:21 am

god-of-war-collection

Good news, everyone! Well, at least to the people who haven’t yet played the God of War games on the PS2. Sony today announced that they will be releasing anti-aliased and 720p-resolution updated versions of both God of War I and God of War II. Also included is a set of trophies for those who care about their e-peen.

I’m going with this being a good thing, despite the fact that it’s milking a franchise, simply because I was told about how good these games are just after I put my PS2 away, and I am quite lazy. This saves me the trouble of not only getting out the PS2, but buying two discs to put in it. Laziness wins in the end.

Some PS3 Final Fantasy players (like myself) were shocked the day that the latest title was announced for the 360, in fact I almost ran up to the stage and started screaming at the conference, but once the shock faded, concerns started to come into play.

The biggest concern most PS3 owners had surrounded the potential “middle ground” that may have to be reached in order to have the game port successfully onto the 360 console. Namingly, the lack of disc space when comparing a Blu-ray discs to the traditional format.

Well, in one statement, FFXIII Producer, Yoshinori Kitase, put that fear to bed.  Read more…

Gundam Senjou no Kizuna PSP Port Gets Lost in Translation

by Sean Mitchuson on January 7, 2009 at 11:16 am

One of the greatest arcade games of all time (at least in my mind) is being ported to the PSP.  For some reason, I don’t think it’s going to be quite the same game. Read more…

FFXIII 360 Already In Development? In-Game Renders Surface Online

by Chad Lakkis on October 6, 2008 at 2:34 pm

FFXIII In-Game Crystal Tools rendering

We have gotten a hold of several images depicting Crystal Tools in-game renders from Final Fantasy XIII, and may have visual proof that the Xbox 360 version of the game is already being developed.

Several Final Fantasy XIII in game renders utilizing the Crystal Tools engine surfaced online after apparently first appearing on the Japanese television channel TV Tokyo.

While this great news for Final Fantasy junkies like myself looking to drool over anything remotely associated to the game, the even bigger news is that a 360 controller was spotted on the desk of what appears to be one of the games developers.

Could the 360 version of Final Fantasy XIII already be underway despite Square Enix stating otherwise? Have a look at the images after the jump. Read more…

PS3 “Left 4 Dead” by Valve? EA to the Rescue!

by Chad Lakkis on August 3, 2008 at 2:48 pm

The Official Playstation Magazine reports that Valve’s Left 4 Dead survival-horror game will be making its way to the PS3 console as a port courtesy of Electronic Arts. This is the second time in recent history that Valve is partnering with EA to port one of their titles to the PS3 — the first being Orange Box.

Will this port be any better than the last, and will Valve once again shun responsibility if it isn’t. Those are the million dollar questions. Stay tuned for the sixty dollar answers.

Update: Valve’s Doug Lombardi was recently asked about the PS3 port of Left 4 Dead and stated the following “There is no PS3 version of Left 4 Dead currently in production.” Read the entire update here.

Uncharted on the 360? Not Bloody Likely

by Patrick Steen on November 19, 2007 at 11:42 am

uncharted_360.jpg

It’s quite funny what rumors can start in gaming forums, all from the poor comprehension of the few. So now, here’s a good one. Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, developed by Naugthy Dog for the Playstation 3, could be ported to the Xbox360. We like this. Just as moronic as PS3 fanboys screaming about Bioshock coming over to their little baby.
