Exactly like a loverboy with one main lady and a couple of bits on the side, Final Fantasy creators Square Enix has pledged big support to the PS3 while giving Microsoft and Nintendo some lovin' as well. According to one of its senior executives, the company doesn't want to see Sony as the "overwhelming winner" this generation so the company doesn't plan to "support them too much." A funny quote, and kind of arrogant - but judging from the FFXIII hype we witnessed first-hand in Japan last week, a telling one about the clout the developer still holds with PlayStation gamers. Next Gen offers a lot of opinions on what it means for the industry... if that's your bag, hitthe article.
PS3... 60
No, it's not a tie-up between Sony and Microsoft. Who'd believe that? It's simply that - just as anybody with half a brain suspected - we've gotmore evidencethat PS3 games will cost $60, just like 360 games do, and it's almost totally official this time. The Sony Style website lists the games for that price. Sony isn't that great at communicating important info, but we'd take this as told: you'll be paying $60.
Pigskin pros, get your game on
Ready to rock Madden? EA and Microsoft are teaming up for an Xbox Live Madden NFL 07 Tournament... where the winners will be flown to Hawaii. That's pretty sweet. Any Xbox Live Gold member 13 or older is eligible... so head over tothe official websiteand sign up. All those weekends wasted with the 360 might just turn into something after all. The whole thing begins October 5, so get some practice in ASAP.
Resident Evil still doubles up
Rumors, apparently, have hit the web that Resident Evil 5 is to become a 360 exclusive. Well, it's not. Of course. The game is still due to hit the PS3 and 360 simultaneously, our sister siteNext Generation reports, based on the word of a Capcom spokesperson. It doesn't get more official than that. Nor does it get more obvious. Where do rumors like this come from, and why? They waste so much of everyone's time.
Ready to race
