Forums - Sony Discussion - Possible PS3 exclusive?! Data-Fly?


 

Origo Games has rolled out a teaser website for a new game which appears to be called Data-Fly. The website features a countdown timer and three screenshots, each of which has its own coded message.


  

The decoded messages are as follows [hidden for those who want to work the code out for themselves]. I left the last line as readable because the tags were messing the spoiler-hide up:

"In nature things are note always what they seem to be.
To survive one must live adapt and evolve.
Data-Fly"

"Are you watching?"

"To live is to survive.
To survive is to learn.
To learn is to adapt.
Nature knows no bounds.
In nature curiosity reigns.

Take everything you know and leave it behind.
World exclusive trailer at GDC."


Word around the web is that this will be a PS3 exclusive, but that seems to have stemmed from the fact that Origo has chosen to reveal the game at PSU.com. The teaser site also doesn't say anything about platforms, so let's hold off on throwing the word "exclusive" around before the official announcement, alright?

However, we had reported back in 2006 that Origo president and CEO Adam McLord had previously mentioned that they were targeting a "late 2008" Xbox 360 release, but that date's come and gone, so it's possible the game could have become a PS3 exclusive in the interim. Incidentally, the same QJ article has this to say about Data-Fly:

Data-Fly is a free-form, play-it-your-way kind of game. Players can engage the enemy head-on using either guns or swords, or they can opt for a more discreet approach in stealth mode. That sounds like Assassin's Creed, don't you agree? Well, it would be unwise and hard to judge this early as the setting of the game is still undisclosed.

 

The game features a nanotech artificial intelligent lifeform called Fly that came from a capsule stranded in the desert. The lifeform, accordingly, is to follow out a directive to free its creator Azadeh. Trouble comes when the Fly recognizes that it is two decades late and the military facility that holds its master has been changed. What's most interesting about the Data-Fly is that the character can shapeshift into almost any form.


Shapeshifting, desert imagery... Yup, that pretty much ties in with the screenshots and the coded messages in the teaser site.

Oh yeah, another thing: GDC starts on the 23rd, but the countdown on the site still has 17 days and 14 hours to go until it runs out. Keep checking back here for more updates.

This is pretty interesting news. Although this website can be more known as a rumor website. But the teaser website does exist all you have to do is click on the link at the bottom of the article. The site has a secret message to be deciphered but if you don't feel like it all you have to do is highlight the blank area in the article to read the message.

 

So what are your views and opinions? Do you think this rumor is true? Are you excited for this game? Discuss.

 

*FIXED*

Can you correct the text? I can't read the end of the lines. And the white text is annoying

Fixed as best I could and the white text is meant to be that way. Just highlight to read or decipher the code on their webpage.

and Data Fly is named a Multi Platform game from IGN, so don't get your hopes up that this is an exclusive.

Ehhm...FF13 WAS PS3 exclusive...why wouldn't IGN had it like that? Till the E3 conference, Square had announced it was PS3 only, so it was the most obvious thing to list it as that. Every site had it so
