Forums - Sony - Rumours from GDC

A member of our forums (Teeda) was kind enough to share some of the latest rumors involving the Game Developers Conference with us. There are some very interesting tidbits in there that should make every PlayStation fan very happy should they pan out to be true. Here's the latest:

New 80gb PS3 bundled with 2 games will be launched at the end of March.it will cost 399$ (already confirmed).- New 40gb ps3 sku will be launched this May. The cost will be 299$.

- PSP slide will be shown for the first time in this year's E3. The launch is next year.

- The currently available PSP model will get a price cut too. The cost will be 119$.

- Fumito Ueda will be there at GDC '09. He will announce 2 projects. One of them is Shadow of the Colossus Online.

- Syphon Filter is underway to PS3. Apparently the developers are using the same engine behind Killzone2.

- Insomniac is developing a new action platformer RPG. It looks like a Zelda clone.

- Jak 4 is on the way too.

- Daxter 2 will be on ready at the time of PSP slide launch.

- Legend of Dragoon is under development and is to be launched in japan this year.



There are being reported as rumors, nothing more, so until GDC has come and gone take them with a grain of salt. Very exciting if true, however!

Even if half of them turn out to be true.. even that will be nice for PS3..

Syphon Filter on Killzone 2 engine will be the one to look forward to

Interesting, hopefully just half of those will have any merit at all.



LEGEND OF DRAGOON 2!

PS3 -$299

2 TEAM ICO GAMES

All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

would be wonderful if true, but sadly it sounds like way too much to be announced at GDC, so I'm going to have to assume these are all fake.



...

some of this will be put off till E3 i think



PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

 

Consoles owned: Game Cube, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Nintendo DS, PSP, PS1, PS2, PS3.

My prediction: NATAL WILL NOT help 360 sales. Maybe a 50-100k boost week 1, then a 30-70 k boost week 2, and back to the norm again after 3-5 weeks.

well you guys have alot of hopes. all im hoping for is a ps3 pricedrop



Damn.....Well, there's no way ALL of these will be anounced at GDC. Assuming any of it's true, Sony would likely wait until E3 to announce most of these.

That would be really really cool. But, honestly, I don't believe in anything of that =/
