PS3 October Events

Yeah baby! That's what I was waiting for! Here's hoping for any surprises (price cut?) to come from there.

I think this is because some of Sony's launch games were not meant for the Japanese market so they're trying to show them in a more appropriate territory
I think it's because SONY don't want the NA market to remember them by their E3'05 performance! Plus, it's a good opportunity to win back some 'mind space' after X06, and hopefully remain fresh for the masses by the time launch comes around.
 
and here it is:

Development ninjas smile off console slip in Europe

British developer Ninja Theory has confirmed PlayStation 3-exclusive fighter Heavenly Sword as a "launch window" release during a Game Developer Conference presentation in London, although the game will not make it out in America before the end of the year.

"We've always been a launch window title so it hasn't affected us at all," said Nina Kristensen, Ninja Theory's co-founder, answering a question on how Sony's PlayStation 3 delay in Europe had affected the release of the game.

"No, it's going to be next year," said Guy Midgley lead animator, speaking of the game's American launch, "but we haven't announced a specific date yet."

The presentation generally centred on the development of the game's extensive combat system, showing software used to compile what look to be intricate combat routines.

"We needed to do one-on-one combat, group combat and army combat," said lead programmer SaiTong Man. "Our main inspiration was Virtua Fighter and Soul Calibur… Our hero has three stances, but we decided to make each enemy a different stance. This makes the player think about the stance they need to be in to survive the encounter."

Much was shown of wire-frame combat, the presentation culminating in the most recent trailer made for the game.

Cool. New trailer!

Surely you mean E3 2006, because E3 2005 was one of the best, if not the best, hype inducing press conference in gaming history.
 
It's so ugly!

I was expecting a nice little "circle, triangle, square, X" logo in a square formation like the logos. Instead it looks like he was attached by an octopus from hell.

Ok I demand an explanation. Whats wrong with hell octapuses you racist?
 
It's 13 quid!! Do you have ANY idea what i could do with that kind of money!! :devilish:

Put it toward a ps3 in march? :LOL: ok ok im sorry that was a low blow... ;)

I wish you guys didnt get the bad end of the stick all the time. But look at the bright side, you guys should have a pretty crazy launch title lineup and a better idea of what to buy and what not to buy.
