Sony Gamer's Day 2007

The18thLetter · May 17, 2007

Tons of trailers up @ Gametrailers.com from the event.

Uncharted looks AMAZING, as does Ratchet, Heavenly Sword, and LittleBigPlanet.

Don't really care much for SOCOM, but it looks okay for a PS3 game... could look better graphically, especially after seeing the aforementioned games.

Pain looks sooooo stupid... but I want to play it. lol

Unfortunately, there's no written articles just yet about Gamer's Day, so we have yet to see whether or not that 2.0 update is real or not.

Damn internets.. im supposed to be writing a few papers right now but since you posted this i guess im just going to watch these trailers. Heavenly sword looks pretty epic though damn.

Heavenly Sword looks awesome. Reminds me of God Of War. Looks like Kratos has some competition.

This will be the first game I pick up for my PS3.

Psychotext · May 17, 2007

Some cool stuff there. Good to see Sony are at least attempting to bring solid competition to the market.

I was just gonna post a thread asking if anyone has noticed the massive surge in info about PS3 games today. Now I know why. Cant wait for SOCOM Confrontation. It may be starting off slow but PS3 is looking more appealing to me every day.

Should be good.

4saken · May 17, 2007

thanks for all the vid lnks! killed a few mins at work

joemama · May 17, 2007

Since I already have a 360..none of this really makes me want to go shell out $600 for a PS3 right now but...it does make me feel better about having plenty to catch up on when I finally get one sometime next year.

dj_2004 · May 17, 2007

Man, I can't wait for God of War Chains of Olympus. Red Dawn does fantastic work so I know it'll be great once finished.

Sky15 · May 17, 2007

Heavenly Sword looks bad ass.

Bowhuntr11 · May 17, 2007

Check out Uncharted...if you hadn't yet. It is awesome...

Aerobahn · May 17, 2007

Ratchet and clank,

and warhawk is turning out to be more amazing than i could hope for.

also comes with a bluetooth headset if you buy it from a retail store

been a bit of a confusing time for WarHawk first it was reported that the multiplayer-only title would only be available via download, which I suppose makes a bit of sense. But then it was coming out on Blu-ray disc. Then it wasnt. Now things have been cleared up WarHawk will be available to download, or you can buy it on Blu-ray. And if you buy it on Blu-ray, you get a free Bluetooth headset with it. Sorted.

It certainly seems to be a good day for freebies, and a Bluetooth headset is pretty generous, although I wonder how much that will drive up the cost of the disc version. There shouldnt be any reason why the headset wouldnt work with your mobile as well, which would be pretty cool.

still makes me go...meh

if i don't play games for the graphics then there is no good reason to own a ps3, yeah god of war was alright but two sequels later i just don't care anymore

i'll enjoy my last 4 gen stuff and a wii

though i do want an okami 2...oh thats right, they closed the studio, guess i'll have to wait for syphon filter 87

sorry, i had to jab at the number of sequels

aznpxdd · May 17, 2007

^Trolls FTL.

The PS3 games seems good, although I could care less since I don't own one. But my god...God of War on the PSP looks damn amazing.

Indeed.

Back on topic.
I just REALLY hope lair is gonna be good.. my PS3 needs a new full on game.. i cant play calling all cars without my friends since i love trash talking to people i actually know. Lair is the closest game coming out i believe.

Um, other than Ratchet & Clank and SOCOM these ARE ALL NEW IPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aerobahn · May 17, 2007

They need to release LBP soon

kelbear · May 17, 2007

Most of those PS3 vids don't look very interesting.

But Uncharted looks freaking /awesome/.

Those PSP games are pretty neat for handheld games, but I don't have any use for gaming on the go in my life.

Aerobahn · May 17, 2007

Nice animation. I have high hopes for this game to see if games will ever beable to get over the 1 animation per function hurdle.

joemama · May 18, 2007

The best part of the above ^^^ gif is that the holster straps on the dudes back moves independently when it would have been much easier to just "paint" it onto his shirt. If the entire game has that level of detail then this is one to watch for.
