Or at least a couple. The " official" announcements should be tomorrow, but hey, we might as well get started...


Blast Factor
















flOw














Go Sudoku










Lemmings 2

cough cough..


I still remember when sony said they wouldnt have a structured online component, i wonder why they changed their minds!

MS is really going to have to work to best them in évery department!

Blast Factor looks a lot like a cool flash game i played recently at newgrounds.

When i read this post i remembered about a Sony PR a few months ago talking about microsoft copying all that they were doing...looks like the opposite though...

Majik, you talked about Microsoft offering XNA for Live Arcade...do you know if Sony has made something similar to XNA?

Nothing solid. They have previous experience though and the only real reason why Yaroze didn' t take off was that Sony didn' t supply all the necessary information and software to the end user.

Supplying the CELL SDK and " development tools" certainly points towards user created content.

I' ve been looking at the XNA beta for a couple of weeks now, and i' m definitely interested in whatever Sony are putting together. I don' t see a downside to any of this.

Whether they develop a platform specifically to make " proper" game development easier is another thing. It' s costly and they don' t have the expertise.

That flOw game looks alot like Electroplankton.

Flow & Lemmings both look fun, but If I have to see another digital Sudoku game, I' m gonna spaz out.

man...Yaroze...i didn´t remember that...it was for PS 1 right?

Thanks for the info Majik.
