Why did you say lair is so bad. It is one of the coolest games I have ever seen and played in my entire life

-- Nabil

We gave it a low score because it sucks. But if you enjoy it, then good for you.

First!

Since DMC4,mercs.2, and AC were all originally ps3 exclusives do you think the ps3 version of these games will be superior in comparison to all other platforms since they were being built originally towards the ps3 hardware? Also, what's the chances of demos of these being released for ps3 first for a change?

-- E.Vega

We'll have to wait and see. One slight issue with the demo cycle is that Microsoft updates Xbox Live on Wednesdays, while Sony updates the PlayStation Store on Thursdays. That doesn't mean that a demo for any of these games couldn't hit the PS3 first, but if they come out the same week then the 360 will pretty much get them first by default.

Ad

In light of Square-Enix's comments recently, its got me thinking again on the subject of Sony's marketing strategy. Have you guys seen any TV ads for Warhawk or LAIR? I saw Heavenly Sword's ad at like 2am last nite. Whenever I cut on the tube, I see ads for 360 games, even those that we share. There's hardly no mention of PS3. I know a lot's been delayed, but what's the strategy here? Am I just having an isolated experience here?

-- HeFromADistance

This is a good question. I'm not sure why Sony's marketing seems to be a good deal behind Microsoft's, but it looks to be so. Sony had a number of rather strange ads (the ones with the baby and whatnot) during the system's launch, but even those didn't really do much to hype the system all that well. Hopefully they'll pick it up soon and release a sequel to the PlayStation 9 ad.

Rumboliah

sorry to keep bringing this up...but do you think we will see a rumble controller for the ps3 at tgs?

-- MGShound

Perhaps. But every time we think Sony is about to announce it, it doesn't. We'll just have to wait and see, but I personally hope it does.

Who You Gonna Call?

Hey Guys awesome PodCasts keep up the good work. I'v been wondering I keep hearing especially interviews with Dan Akroyd on certain shows that he will be helping with creating a Ghostbusters game for all platforms and just to find out if maybe what he said was true. I seen a video on YouTube when he was on a Canadian Channel. Would you guys have any idea if you have heard anything because I am a Hugeeeee Ghostbusters fan and it would be nice especially with todays graphics it would be hot.

Thanks Guys

-- Chris

Nothing official has been announced, but a Ghostbusters game could and would indeed be a great premise for a game.

That's All for Now

Friday is here again. The only problem is that Monday is now only three days away. At least TGS is next week and we'll hopefully see a bunch of cool stuff there.

Beyond.
