Latest 1UP/EGM Rumours - Blu-ray Forum

Shin-Ra · 06-26-2007, 03:31 AM

Lots of great stuff for Sony fans, should these come true!

A proper Parasite Eve III (first two were on PlayStation), Epic Games and Sony working together very closely on Unreal tech and a new game, Kojima Productions working on ANOTHER PS3 exclusive - not ZOE3 and what's cheaper than the Wii with similarly low specs? THE PS2! - it's getting its own Wii-mote, apparently.

I love the Parasite Eve games! I can't wait for part 3 and I hope that it's a PS3 exclusive!

Sony is also planning a seperate E3 conference to for Killzone2, which will happen after the Microsoft Press Conference. I will be keeping an eye out on this one. It looks to be promising.

Only PEII was released in Europe but I loved it and the lack of backstory didn't do to much harm.

It's my understanding this a general media event of 2.5 hours and not just for killzone2 as was initially interpreted/"reported".

You've gotta find a way to play the first one, dude. I did like Parasite Eve 2, but the first one's vastly better I think. So much so, that I play it almost every year in late December.

Shin-Ra · 06-26-2007, 04:37 PM

I'm hoping they'll make it a PSN download or even do a PSP update with improved graphics.

Musashi · 06-26-2007, 06:41 PM

It remains a good game today, even if primitive compared to any of the 'dark cinematic' games on newer platforms.

I would advocate a full out remake, preferable for PS2 or PS3. The one big thing it would need above all else is voicework, which Squenix has done exceptionally well in my view.

I would have to agree...this game is killer!

Parasite Eve is cool. Last I heard, Madonna actually owns the movie rights (as bizarre as that may sound).

Shin-Ra · 06-27-2007, 01:32 AM

I'm surprised to hear a relatively unknown game like PE even has movie rights.

hyperdine · 06-27-2007, 01:40 AM

Yep. Pretty crazy. Too bad they never followed through with it. Although given the record of game to movie translations, maybe that's a good thing.

I wouldn't call Parasite an unknown. Both games were Greatest Hits and had fairly big TV ad campaigns.
