IGN was lucky enough to receive some retail copies of God of War: Chains of Olymus on the PSP. It came with an ad that promises there is more to come on the PlayStation 3.
The ad basically states God of War III is coming to the PlayStation 3 soon. Soon means short, so can we expect this by the summer? Lets hope so.

White PlayStation 3 Coming in March?
Over the last week, retailers across the US have been reporting that they've stopped receiving 40GB PlayStation 3 Spider-Man 3 bundles. Instead, they've been told to expect 40GBs without a movie. Weird. It's being said that Circuit City employees are receiving PlayStation 3's with a model number of CECHH01. That is the same model number for the White PlayStation 3's in Japan. Could a White PlayStation 3 soon be emerging for the US?

Street Date
Opening remarks revealed that the final chapter in the saga of super spy Solid Snake is expected to arrive in stores in North America on Thursday June 12th, 2008. "Blockbuster events and premieres are a tradition of the summer," said Kazumi Kitaue, Konami Digital Entertainment Inc. Chairman and CEO. "We anticipate that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots fits that bill perfectly, and consumers will be waiting in line to get their copy of the game just like it's a hit Hollywood movie."
Metal Gear Online Starter Pack

Dark Mist: Japan Version Getting Expansion
While Dark Mist still has not been released in the US or EU, Japan will be receiving an expansion to the game titled Dark Mist: The Depths of Darkness. The expansion will be ¥500 ($4.75) and will add three new characters and a four-player online mode.
Hopefully, when this hits the US and EU stores, we won't have to pay the extra cash and have the update already in the game.
[Japanese PSN game Dark Mist gets expansion, still no Euro version]
Essential Collection Metal Gear Solid NOT a PS2 Port
When we saw the upcoming Metal Gear Solid: The Essential Collection, we were excited. Not only do we get to buy Metal Gear Solid 4, but we get the other games as well. In this collection was Metal Gear Solid, in a PS2 case. Is it a remake or just the game put onto a PS2 DVD?
Konami PR Andrew Kelly confirmed that Metal Gear Solid will be released with the collection on a PS2 DVD, meaning no disc swapping, and no more PSone memory card. Other than that, the games are both the same with visuals, sounds, and such.
[Metal Gear Solid Confirmed As A PS2 Port]
Update 2/28/08 @ 5:51 PM: Well, there seems to have been some confusion, turns out it is not a PS2 Port, but the exact same game.
"So it looks like there was a miscommunication about the format for the games. I recieved this note from Konami's Michael Shelling - '...to be clear, MGS1 is not a port; it’s the original game on 2 CD’s not a DVD.' The original Metal Gear Solid will be appearing on PS1 discs. What this means for saving the game, etc, I am not sure.There you have it.
My apology for the confusion."

Rumor: Gladius 2 In the Works?
LucasArts artist James Zhang has many pieces of art for games he's worked on on his website. Well, there is a bunch on the site, and some listed under Gladius 2. Gladius was a Roman Gladiator game that came out on the PS2.
Could Gladius 2 be in the works?

Grand Theft Auto IV: New Information & Screenshots
And last but not least, we have the new Grand Theft Auto IV screenshots, which you can view below. Enjoy!
- Each site got to play Grand Theft Auto IV for two full hours. Kikizo were the first to do so. Four missions were played.
- The build that the sites got to play is exactly three weeks old as of today.
- Once you die and end up in hospital, you receive a text on your phone offering you to retry the mission.
- Only one island (Broker/Dukes) is unlocked to begin with. The other areas are blocked with police blockades. The second area (Bohan) will open up "sooner than it has in previous GTAs."
- You can drop grenades and molotov cocktails out of the car window at high speed. Headlights can be put on full beam or dipped, but cannot be turned off.
- You can pause and select a destination on the full-size map, which is then reflected on the radar. This marks the route out in blue.
- You cannot store items/objects inside vehicles.
- Cars are not customizable, but you can still save them at safe houses.
- There are eighteen radio stations in total. One is called The Vibe, which is RNB and soul. The other genres on offer include funk, reggae, jazz, dance, modern Jamaican, pop, hardcore, hip hop and a specific Eastern European station.
- Dropped weapons and other items have a yellow halo around them, and the mission markers are now yellow arrows floating in the air, pointing at the ground, as opposed to the cylinders we are used to in previous GTAs.
- A hands-on multiplayer preview will (probably) arrive next month.
The Orange Box Patch Coming in March
A PSN@Home writer contacted EA today about a patch for the PLAYSTATION 3 version of The Orange Box, which is a bit inferior to the Xbox 360 & PC versions. He received a reply.
"Our engineers have finally provided details regarding the issue you are experiencing. Currently, this is a known issue and our engineering team are creating a patch which should resolve the issue. Unfortunately, the patch has yet to be tested and will be released sometime in March. Other issues will be addressed but unfortunately we do not have a list at this time. If you have anymore questions please feel free to respond back to this email or please visit our website and review our extensive Self Help Knowledgebase (http://support.ea.com). Have a great day!!!"Well lets hope this patch coming in March addresses the issues we are experiencing while playing the game such as skipping frame rate, server disconnections and such.

Europe Getting Gran Turismo & Movie Bundles

Grand Theft Auto IV Will Take About 100 Hours to Complete
If your worried that your going to be over and done with Grand Theft Auto IV too fast, then don't be. During a Rockstar London visit, VideoGamer asked a spokesperson how long it would take to complete the game. They responded that it would take about 100 hours, if you take your time.
"If you're not in a rush and you answer the phone when it rings it'll take about 100 hours to complete", they were told. "It's harder to distinguish between main and side missions - there are loads of both. But there are more main missions than side missions. It's not as clear cut as it used to be because of the phone."
The days just keep getting closer and closer. April 2008 people, April 2008.

Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Live-Blogging Impressions
Well, we got in Lost Planet: Extreme Condition for the PLAYSTATION 3 today from Capcom, and we figured "What the heck, why not live-blog our play time?" So thats what we are going to do. We are currently on the install procedure, just about 85% complete. Be sure to refresh this post every now and then! Let the live-blogging begin!
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 9:41 EST
Well, the installation is complete, didn't really take that long, only around 15 minutes, much shorter than Devil May Cry 4's installation. Would have been better without any though of course.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 9: 43 EST
Well, first thing I've noticed while entering the main menu are that they feel much smoother than the menu in the multiplayer demo. I'm about to start the new game. We will stick with normal difficulty.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 9: 44 EST
The beginning cutscene is rolling, something about people colonizing to a new world. Some huge beast just rolled through. They are explaining the new alien life form they uncovered with the expansion of the colony. Human kind wanted to energy source (orange bulbs) on the life forms, they were determined to fight. They should of had Don LaFontaine voicing the story.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 9: 50 EST
The cutscene just faded out, the main characters dad was in trouble at the end. I'm finally into the game, we are running out of a building, they just told me what thermal energy was and how to get it. We just depleted a horde of enemies coming out from what look like hives. We are about to move on. So far, since playing the 360 version at a buddy of mines, the PS3 version is a bit slower. Possibly lower frame rate?
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 9: 55 EST
A green eye just popped out of no where and froze all my men, but of course since I'm a main character I have to stand up to it. Well, lets see how this goes.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 10:00 EST
This green eye boss keeps killing me, or maybe I'm just bad at the game. He keeps on trapping me inside this building and freezing me to death. Grr.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 10:08 EST
Finally beat it, it's now showing the cut scene of Wayne of course surviving the green eye's big belly flop. I've experience a bit of red motion blur throughout the game thats been looking pretty good, however I'm surprised that Capcom's port really lacks on the graphics compared to the Xbox 360 version.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 10:09 EST
And so, Lost Planet begins.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 10:12 EST
I just meet Yuri, Luka (who is playable sometime in the game), and Rick. The Green Eye we fought killed Wayne's (main character) father. Of course, Wayne survived it. Luka's about to fix me up some soup, and we are going over plans.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 10:17 EST
I'm finally out in the snow, going to hop in the mech instead of walking. I've noticed a few skips in the games framerate that are really getting annoying. I just killed some four-legged creature that hopped out of the snow. This level I recall from the E3 2006 Xbox Live demo.
Feb. 27, 2008 @ 10:25 EST
Just defeated a horde of creatures in a beat up parking lot. Luckily, I saw them all coming. Went into a warehouse and killed the beast that popped out of the snow earlier. Again, I'm constantly noticing slow downs of the frame-rate.
Feb. 28, 2008 @ 10:27 EST
I've arrived inside a cave, on my way up, I got hit about two times from those armadillo looking creatures. The hit I didn't mind, what I did mind was the freezing that the game would make everytime he got hit. Come on Capcom?
Feb. 28, 2008 @ 10:34 EST
I'm going through the cave, and once again, constant slow downs every time I get hit. It's really getting annoying. I just activated the machine to get my T-ENG up. Continuing on.
Feb. 28, 2008 @ 10:45 EST
Alright, I was fighting this guy who was a bigger version of the armadillo like creatures from before. The game keeps freezing up so much, I tried beating him twice, no luck today, maybe tomorrow.
Summary
Well, my first level impressions are done. All I really need to say and you probably saw this a million times while reading this. Whats with the damn frame rate? Also, looking at some of the online matches, I found 14 Ranked, 10 of them being in Japan, and 2 custom, one of them being Japan. It's sad really.
PlayStation Eye Headtracking: No Gimmicks Needed
At the Game Developers Conference 2008, Sony Computer Entertainment showd off some of that head-tracking technology we saw a while back, which included a pair of glasses. When Sony showed it, all that was needed was the PlayStation Eye camera. Have a look in the video above, perhaps Sony can start implementing this into some PlayStation Eye games.

New Grand Theft Auto IV Previews Arriving Tomorrow
Tomorrow, Thursday February 28, 2008, gaming sites such as Kiziko, GameSpot, IGN, and such will be publishing new previews of Rockstar's upcoming Grand Theft Auto IV.
We do not know what form these previews will be in, but hopefully we will finally see gameplay of this highly anticipated title.
[Kikizo Update: Previews on Thursday]
Warhawk: Armored Personnel Carrier on the Way?
A new vehicle for Incognito & Sony's Warhawk appeared on PS3Forums today. There is no background to wear this image appeared, besides it being called the Armored Personnel Carrier, but it showcases a new vehicle.
Our guess is that it is one of the new vehicles coming in the Operation Broken Mirror downloadable content pack. When we find out more, we will update you.
[Warhawk: Armored Personnel Carrier]
Witches: First Trailer
The first trailer for Revistronic's upcoming Witches title has appeared on their official website. Luckily, GameTrailers had us covered with the video upload. Overall, so far the game looks pretty good, but not a title I'd really be interested in. How about you? Enjoy!
Warhawk & It's Home Features
Yes, here is the last one. Resistance & Uncharted are getting great Home features, and so is Warhawk.
According to the sources, the Home lobby for Warhawk will serve as a "war room" where up to eight players can meet up, then discuss strategy for their upcoming match. Whats so special about this? You'll be able to use a table with a map where players are able to place little army men around the map and plan their strategies.
My thoughts, although Warhawk's features for Home sound great, I usually just fly around killing a bunch of guys anyway.
[How Warhawk Makes Home Really, Really Cool]
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune & It's Home Features
Resistance isn't the only released first party title getting special Home features. Naughty Dog's Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is getting on the train too. Like Resistance, Uncharted will also allow you to walk it's stages without the threat of being shot.
According to some sources, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune will bring a side-scrolling 2D arcade game to Home, described as a reminiscent of both Contra and Out Of This World.
I expect we will soon see a "How Warhawk Makes Home Really, Really Cool".
[How Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Makes Home Really, Really Cool]
Resistance: Fall of Man & It's Home Features
Insomniac's Resistance: Fall of Man is expected to have a huge presence in Home. The game will provide Home visitors with an interesting room to explore, letting game owners visit unseen areas of the game and view bonus content in the form of intrecepted radio transmissions between the European and United States forces.
These transmissions will show us more of the Resistance series' story. It's said that Home avatars will be able to roam unpopulated levels.
We got to admit, those are some sick plans. We know Home integration is coming for nearly every first party title, but Sony really needs to encourage third-parties.

The second episode of Real World Rules for Atari & Eden Studios' upcoming Alone In The Dark has surfaced today.

Dark Sector: “PS3 Version Was Not Running As Well”
Joe Austin, the Producer for Digital Extremes' & D3 Publisher's upcoming Dark Sector, stated today that the PLAYSTATION 3 version of the game was almost canned.
“So, yeah, this is the PS3 version, umm… it looks just as good as the 360 version, which we’re very happy about. Towards the end we started having some serious conversations about what we were gonna do, uh, but we ended up pulling it off, so we’re very proud of that.”When asked for clarification of what he mean, he replied “It was just not running as well as the 360″. I'm not sure if thats the case now considering they kept saying "was". Be gracious though that the big guys making the game got it running on the better hardware. /sarcasm
