You just know someone, somewhere will claim Sony Bend is developing an Xbox 360 game.

There was this prior PSM3 rumour:

Quote:

Finally, the magazine states that Sony is busting their butts to have Syphon Filter ready for release on the PS3 in 2009.

I'm not sure we need another huge title in 2009 though.

Maximus · 02-05-2009, 09:53 AM

No I don't think we do, maybe save this for 2010 as it is looking a little bare on the exclusive front now that FF is multi.

AranhaHunter · 02-05-2009, 01:41 PM

There hasn't been a good Syphon Filter on consoles since 2, Sony Bend has restored my faith in the franchise after the PSP iterations, I'm hoping this is true and I'm hoping it's using the Killzone 2 engine.

Or the uncharted one since its a TPS...

AranhaHunter · 02-05-2009, 01:57 PM

IIRC You can be a spectator in 3rd person in Killzone 2 MP.

Mobe1969 · 02-06-2009, 07:00 AM

Syphon Filter kicks all sort of ass. The PSP Syphon Filter games are flat out incredible. I so want a PS# next gen version

Darkhawk9587 · 02-15-2009, 12:53 AM

AWESOME!!!

tommyboy81 · 02-15-2009, 12:55 AM

Hopefully this will come out soon, early 2010 at the latest. I've really been wanting a new Syphon Filter game for a long time now. All that the PS2 had was Omega Strain (I don't count the PSP ports), which was decent.

Me too!.....I loved the first 3!

.....if it can be made on par with Uncharted we are in for a treat!

saprano · 02-15-2009, 01:33 AM

It amazes me how many first party games sony has. they dont have to rely on anybody.

Maximus · 02-15-2009, 08:58 AM

Looks OK, but until SCE confirm the title is in development I won't board the train, I have been disappointed too many times this gen.

Edit: Just checked out the source and it looks very outdated, what a surprise playstationlifestyle get something wrong, again.

Edit 2:

Quote:

VGChartz - Their figures are always wrong. Always. LBP has sold 1.98m according to them, I heard from Sony that they have sold just over 1.5m... Oh dear.
Hiphopgamer - What is the point, has absolutely zero credibility.
SurferGirl (and his/her many incarnations) - See above...
Playstationlifestyle - Wrong too many times.
Nexgenwars - See above

The ban list...

Toxa · 02-15-2009, 11:21 AM

Damn it I didn't even notice the source (ban list)

He used a subterfuge "Link" very clever

Anyway evereybody check your source (me too
