UPDATE: http://www.ps3informer.com/playstation-3/news/eight-days-intel-new-leaked-screenshots-e3-06-information-008731.php

The mystery title that the BBC reporter allegedly saw was NOT magna carta for the PS3. Apparently, it's a new game titled "Tears of Blood".

(stolen from gaf boards...)

Quotes from the article.

- It has a new name... No I do not know it.. but it's not going to be called Eight days no more.

- It is not going to be a digital distributed game as previously thought. I.E. 1 day is a chapter released over a set period of time on the PSN. They might do this, but they have a full retail version.

- The release date is set for October of 08

- The game takes place across 8 different states and 8 days.

- You play as 1 of 2 characters... both have their own story line and both have their own abilities and specialties and what not. 1 character is a bad guy... The other a good guy. The bad guy is out for revenge on his former mob team who left him out to dry and the other is a detective who's son has been kidnapped by the mod syndicate. The two join up to get revenge or what ever.

- The animation system is like nothing you've ever seen. It even rivals that of Uncharted if you go off the dev's.

- It'll be the 1st game to ever implement Google mapper into it's core mechanics.

- The game has real time day to night. If you play at night, the game will be set at night. If you play in the day... It'll be played in the day. So forth and so on.

- The game pushes you on instead of back... The game is so expansive that you literally have no time to go back. It's all forward and you'll never revist a location. You're constantly on the move. That doesn't mean you can't go back the way you came, it just means you're better off going on your way as time and meeting new people is crucial and setting up new events leads to your ultimate goal.

for instance, if you miss a contact in "said" location and town... you'll have to try and catch up to them before its too late.

They said... Think of it as an action move. A non stop ride from start to finish. We want you always moving and going and not expecting what's next.

 

Take it for what it is.... unconfirmed, lets keep this thread clean, flame free and subject related.

EDIT2:
SHIT! apparently, this is already posted.



Around the Network

title is wrong. it won't be better than Killzone 2.



I'm back...

sorry but

1/ it was already posted

2/ still good since the last thread was not directly focusing on the PS3 informer comments

3/ I understand about NOTHING to ur editing/updating u made on ur OP.
It is completely unclear



Time to Work !

"It has a new name... No I do not know it.. but it's not going to be called Eight days no more."

So it's not going to be called 8 days?

That's a pity, I liked that name.



 

I'm fairly excited about this game.



Around the Network

I thought that everyone apart from me had forgotten about this game, I can't wait for it. I have been saying this will be one the big hitters this year for some time

Also, my bets are on that secret game being Uncharted 2, the amazing story telling made it seem that way to me



- It'll be the 1st game to ever implement Google mapper into it's core mechanics.



One of the best trailers I have seen for a game in ages.



I would NOT trust this information. It was originally posted on a blog that is known for getting things wrong. Just read through this thread:

Oh my god Eight Days makes me wet my pants, that game is going to be so fcking epic xD I've needed a completely over the-top action-shooter for some time to come now ^^

Doe anyone have news on this "Tears of Blood" title?



From 0 to KICKASS in .stupid seconds.
