Just to get it out of the way.

Apparently there is a Gears of War 2 technical demo floating about. and a game called Linger in Shadows on the PS3 showing the most incredible in game graphics ever.

No official details yet but PS3fanboy.com say...

Jeux-France has suggested that MotorStorm, Heavenly Sword, Resistance: Fall of Man, Formula One Championship Edition, Lair, Folklore, Ridge Racer 7 and Genji: Days of the Blade will all be made available within the platinum range and will sell for €40 each


€40 is still fairly expensive imo

American sites. PS3 is region free and games are way cheaper over there.

Just saw that linger of shadows vid. was on youtube. looked good, but i really want to see a HD version so i can see it properly. game looks fucked up. really fucked up. Music was excellent aswell.

Some GTAIV multiplayer screens...

From ps3fanboy again...

Grand Theft Auto IV first multi-player screenshots
Posted Mar 26th 2008 8:30AM by Nick Doerr
Filed under: Videos and Screenshots


While the original site that hosted these images had to remove them, some of the good folks at the GTAForums took the time to upload what are being called the first true images of the multi-player mode of Grand Theft Auto IV. If you can't imagine what they'd look like, just think of an image of GTAIV and slap a name display above the character's head. Magic! The screens make the carnage we all know and love seem much more action-oriented, ducking behind boxes or engaging in drawn-out shootings. Sounds like fun, no?
