PS3 Greatest Hits Coming Soon?

July 12, 2008

Well, it was only a matter of time we’d see the Greatest Hits red cover come to the PS3.  Sony’s last big Greatest Hit was God Of War 2, so going to the PS3 was only logical.  The image above is from a K-Mart and does a great job showing the titles.  Among those titles we do see are:  MotorStorm, Warhawk, and Resistance.  The games towards the bottom are PSP games.  Had to take out my Sherlock Holmes magnifying glass.

Halo’s ‘Chill Out’ Remake Bound for Xbox Live — FREE

July 3, 2008

Bungie’s third Halo game has been regulated to second place in the Xbox 360 online space for a while now by a certain future-proof’ed Call of Duty, but it sure loves its fans.

In a move that Microsoft will likely see as a missed economic opportunity, the remake of the Chill Out map from the Halo 1 days, Cold Storage, will be available for FREE on July 7, according to Bungie.net.

Luke Smith also talks a bit about an interesting throwback wrench being thrown into Halo 3’s online game play on Bungie Day:

“Beginning on July 7, there will be a 48-hour long seven-player FFA playlist in Halo 3’s Matchmaking where you can turn the calendar back to 2001 and control l Rockets, Invis and Snipe.”

PS2 Hits coming to the Playstation Store?

June 30, 2008

This week looks to be a very hot week for Playstation news as another screenshot surfaces.  We already have seen PSone games hit the PSN, but with the news of PS2 games hitting the store this can be BIG NEWS!  I, for one, am an original PS3 60gb owner.  While the news of PS2 titles arriving to the PS3 is nice, I can bet that I own most of the titles they will release PLUS have it on disc which is playable on my PS3.  So, for you 20gb, 40gb, and some games on the 80gb PS3’s it looks like you’ll finally be able to play God of War I and God of War II.  Until it’s confirmed it’s just a rumor!  So why not spread it like wild fire!

So far I can see Red faction, MGS2, Fantavision, Smuggler’s Run and SSX and maybe Ridge Racer V.

Thanks for the tip PS3Fanboy!

Deus Ex Hits GameTap Tomorrow, Play it for Free

June 4, 2008

Considered one of the best PC games of all time, Warren Spector’s (who works for Disney Interactive now) Deus Ex will be made available on GameTap for free play after an initial 15-second ad-gasm.

While a bit dated, the game warrants a play — it’s free! — as it was one of the first shooters to incorporate RPG elements into the gameplay. It’s not the most trigger-happy title, but its branching paths and cyperpunk story line should keep you well entertained. Deus Ex 3 is currently in development by Eidos Montreal so this should serve as a primer before that game sees the light of day.
