Bad news for Ricky "Steel Knees" Chamberlain, the world's only 350-lb. pro skater: The proprietary Tony Hawk Ride board is limited to folks 300 lbs. and under, according to Robomodo.
If you were holding out for Splinter Cell Conviction to eventually make its way to PS3, you’re out of luck. Ubi just said on its forums that it really is an MS exclusive thanks to a “link of heart” between the franchise and the platform.
“Splinter Cell Conviction is a true Microsoft exclusive title and there are no plans to have Splinter Cell Conviction on other platforms,” said the company.
“There are several reasons behind this choice. First of all, Splinter Cell games are historically linked with Microsoft platforms. The first Splinter Cell on the original Xbox was one of the first games to fully exploit the console’s technical possibilities. At that time, Microsoft really believed in the game potential and provided strong support to promote it. So, there is a “link of heart” between the franchise and the platform. Some games are like this (think of Final Fantasy for instance).
“The second reason behind this choice is purely linked to production. Having a single target platform means that we can optimize the game even further, because we only have one type of - console - hardware to support.”
It’s out at the end of this year. Assuming you’re not solely reliant on PS3, obviously
EA official site lists PS3 version of Left 4 Dead 2
It's no secret that Valve isn't a big fan of the PS3. When the company revealed Left 4 Dead 2 as an Xbox 360/PC exclusive, no one acted surprised. However, PS3 may be getting its own version of the multiplayer FPS if the official EA website is to be believed. Not only is PS3 listed in the "Coming Soon" section of the site, but a quick glance of EA's games page reveals placeholder box art for the game as well. This could be a sign that EA is working on a PS3 port; the company did work on the PS3 version of The Orange Box.
Or, it could be a database error. A PS3 version of the original Left 4 Dead was rumored after an accidental listing was placed on retailer HMV's website. That, for those of you keeping track, didn't come to fruition.
Hey, did you know Ubisoft is still releasing DLC for HAWX? We know, we're as surprised as you are! And apparently this latest pack, "Supremacy," is even pricier than usual at $9.99. But don't worry, it's a greatest hits package, with all of the planes released for the game so far lumped into one big chunk.
After the break, we've got a collection of letters, numbers and acronyms that apparently represent some of the planes you'll find if you download "Supremacy." For the rest of us?
Not confirmed and not verifed but pictures of a possible “Playstation3 Slim” have surfaced and it looks too good to be true.
Along with that rumors of a PS3 Slim to be revealed a E3 this year was mentioned as well. If all was planned ahead and true, it will bid well for consumers to own a slimline looking blu-ray cum gaming console.
Based on the grainy looking photos, the slim model has a similar curved like design while looking much slimer (of course) and sports a 120GB hard disk while retaining its slot-loading disc drive. ..
