Ubisoft’s Max Beland has said Splinter Cell will probably end up coming to PS3 and other platforms after the release of Conviction in April.
But Conviction is a fully-fledged exclusive on Xbox 360 and PC, with no release planned for other consoles.
He went on to further say:
“I joined Splinter Cell after the exclusivity deal with Microsoft had already been signed, but there’s no reason why Splinter Cell couldn’t be on the PS3,”.
“Conviction? No, because of the exclusivity deal. I know people keep talking about maybe, maybe not, [but] at Ubisoft Montreal I haven’t seen anyone working on PS3 for Conviction.
“If Microsoft wants an exclusivity deal, they don’t call me, it’s Yves [Guillemot, Ubisoft CEO] dealing with the business people. But yeah, I guess we could even be a PS3 exclusive if there’s a deal that makes people happy there.”
I really can’t believe that this series is still alive and kicking? Good for them though if they keep making good games.
It’s official: The Ballad of Gay Tony and The Lost and the Damned add-ons for GTA IV will finally make it to the PS3. Rockstar’s contract with Microsoft to keep the DLC exclusive to the Xbox 360 has expired, and SCEA has confirmed that the episodes will be available in North America on March 30th, 2010. A European release date is unknown.
I heard this one of the best DLC’s for this game, why would they make it exclusive. Is anyone still playing the game?
Apparently there are two versions of Nier in Japan and we are only getting one. When I say we, I am talking about the US. It’s an adult themed action/RPG and the main charachter is supposed to be a hermaphrodite but we don’t get that version.We aren’t grown up enough to handle it as well as Japanese gamers.
This game is only on PS3 and Xbox 360 so far.

Well here you go my fellow gamers, Electronic Arts has released Dante’s Inferno Demo for us to download. You can search for it on Xbox Live or you can queue it up right from here.
Here are the details on Dante’s Inferno from xbox.com:
“Based on part one of Dante Alighieri’s classic poem “The Divine Comedy”, you play as Dante on his descent through the 9 circles of Hell: limbo, lust, gluttony, greed, anger, heresy, violence, fraud and treachery, on a mission to rescue the soul of his beloved Beatrice. Armed with Death’s Scythe, Beatrice’s Holy Cross and magic powers, battle large scale beasts and bosses, some of which Dante will be able to fully tame to throw back Hell’s wrath to its minions, all at a fluid, fast-paced 60 frames per second.”
This demo is also available on Playstation 3 for download.
If your into fantasy RPG’s you should check out Divinity 2: Ego Draconis. A demo for the Divine Divinity sequel is now available on Xbox Live everywhere, with the exception of Japan.
A little about Divinity 2: Ego Draconis from dtp entertainment AG and Larian Studios:
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis is a ground breaking, story-based action role playing game that combines a truly stunning, free roaming world just waiting to be explored, with exhilarating aerial and ground based combat.
Get up close and personal in human form – exploring dungeons, grabbing loot and putting the hurt on the many evil denizens of Rivellon – or take to the skies by shape-shifting into a mighty Dragon to explore the mountain peaks and deliver fiery death from above!
You will build your character from the ground up, and continue customizing as you gain experience. We want you to be able to define a unique Dragon Knight and create your own legend in the world of Divinity II.
The shape-shifting element is an important part of the game because it allows a whole new viewpoint on the world, as well as an exciting new form of combat. We hope that you will also appreciate the shock factor of a Dragon Slayer actually becoming a Dragon Knight! You’ll hear more about all of this soon!
We have built the game around a multifaceted quest structure, to make sure that you’re in the centre of the adventure and creating your own unique story. We are making Divinity II the game that we, as fans of the big epic role playing games, have always wanted to play. We believe you should be able to explore a world from ground level up and not be restricted to linked sections of the environment. We have strived to make sure that the game delivers a seamless and exciting RPG experience that both the fans of the classic series and new players will love.
The team here at Larian has been working very hard to bring you an exceptional fantasy RPG, which is nearly ready – so check out this website on Divinity Wednesdays for new updates and features!

Looks like we win and with Microsoft’s help. After first releasing the 360 Live iPhone app for $1.99 and subsequently being talked to by Microsoft, creator Xavier Larrea has released a free version on the iTunes App Store. As the app now complies with Microsoft’s policy that all Xbox Live apps should be free, 360 Live should be here to stay.
Well here you have it the premiere video of Halo Reach. Bungie said in July that Reach will be the final Bungie-developed Halo title, I don’t believe them but hey what do I know.
I can’t tell you how excited I am about this news. I played the first game and there is nothing more satisfying than starting out as Darth Vader and being able to use the death grip. Prepare for another third-person action adventure set in the Star Wars universe.
Details from Lucas Arts about the game:
“With Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II, the epic story continues as players once again assume the role of the devastatingly powerful Starkiller – Darth Vader’s secret apprentice set during the largely unexplored era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.
“Executive Producer Haden Blackman and his team have been able to build on the core foundation of the award-winning original and create a powerful combination of engrossing story-telling and intense action. The Force Unleashed II gives fans an opportunity to wreak havoc on an even greater scale in the Star Wars universe,” said LucasArts’ President Darrell Rodriguez.”
Visit the official website of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II at www.unleashed2010.com and sign-up for updates. A trailer will be posted on the website on Monday, December 14th.

I have yet to finish the first game but I am enjoying it when I play it. I will probably get this one as well. Oh and the picture is not official art I just liked how it was copied from the L4D series.
