Jaffe Confirms No Game Reveal Next Week

Posted in PlayStation 3, Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios with tags , , , , on July 1, 2009 by Jonathan Cullen

JaffeNow, this one just got interesting.

Yesterday, David Jaffe left a tweet from Twitter saying he was showing off his new game at a “dog and pony” type show for Sony and the worldwide honchos like WorldWide studios boss, Shuhei Yoshida, where all worldwide studios would show off the latest builds from PS3 games (yes, in other words, Last Guardian will be there too).

This however still led to speculation that it would be revealed next week, but Jaffe has put that to rest at NeoGAF when they started to nose around . He does however state that they will look at a reveal sometime after the New Year.

Hey- not announcing a game next week. We are going to the monthly Sony greenlite meeting where all of the Playstation groups in the world convene to get brought up to speed on ALL the games being made and to offer feedback, suggestions, and work with the game makers to try to make sure the games will be well received in the numerous territories that Playstation games are sold.

So we’re putting together a video of gameplay to bring the overall Playstation group- lead by Shu Yoshida- up to speed on our title.

It’s stressful for us cause we want them to be happy and supportive of our work. But it’s got nothing to do with an announcement for the public. My guess is that we are looking at announcing the title right after the New Year but that’s out of my hands.

So, there you have it. It’s naturally Twisted Metal PS3 of course, you’d be a fool to bet against it. A teaser at the end of the most recent Twister Metal for the PS2 stated that a TM was in development for PS3. We can only wait and see what happens next with Jaffe and Eat, Sleep, Play.

Naughty Dog: Uncharted 2 to Recieve 90 Minutes Worth of Cutscenes

Posted in PlayStation 3, Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios with tags , , , , , , on July 1, 2009 by Jonathan Cullen

uncharted-2Naughty Dog’s co-president Evan Wells has said in a US PS Blog livetext, alongside Naughty Dog creative director Amy Hening, that the cutscenes for the game will come in at 90 minutes as far as the game’s story is concerned.

The single player campaign is definitely going to be longer than Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune. We have over 90 minutes of cinematics alone!

So there pretty much is a whole spread of cutscenes combined to 90 minutes in the game, compared to the suposed 90 minute ending of MGS4 (it wasnt 90 mins, but it felt like it).

Game’s out this Fall, with a date promised soon, and a second multiplayer beta coming soon as well.

Posted in PlayStation 3, Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios with tags , , , , on June 30, 2009 by Jonathan Cullen

uncharted-2-multiplayerNaughty Dog co-president Evan Wells has just confirmed in a livetext to the US PS Blog that a second multiplayer beta for Uncharted 2: Among Thieves will be coming before release, but dates for it, or for that matter how to get your hands on it, is to be decided yet. Asked if there was gonna be a open beta, Wells basically answered there would be.

Yes, we’re going to have another multiplayer demo before the game hits shelves. The exact timing isn’t finalized yet, but it should be available to an even wider group this time, so if you missed the last one I don’t think you’ll have any problem getting in this one.

Earlier, Wells confirmed a date for the game would be incoming, but would give no more then that. Catch our hands on impressions of the first multiplayer beta here.

It’s out this Fall for the PS3.

We’d like to see a date soon, preferingly sooner then later, both in the announcement and the release date. Either way, it’s exclusive to the PLAYSTATION 3 and is coming this year.
