Worldwide PS3 releases for the week of May 25th

Less than three weeks to go until Metal Gear Solid 4. In the meantime, however, there are still a number of titles trickling out and this week is no exception. We haven't heard (or reported) much on Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, but it's out this week to battle against Haze for the title of Mediocre FPS of the Month. Oh no we didn't. Here's the full release list:

US Games

* Enemy Territory: Quake Wars

EU Games

* Enemy Territory: Quake Wars

Asian Games

* Battle Fantasia
* Rainbow Six Vegas 2
* Turok

Feel free to indulge your PS3 in games imported from other regions. It just loves getting a new exotic taste every so often. That's what it told us anyway. Also, it said that you smell. You might want to look into that. Release dates are constantly in a state of flux, so don't be surprised if the above info turns out to be incorrect in whole or in part. Check with your local retailer for up to the minute release info.

Battle Fantasia is actually a pretty fun 2D fight game. You can download the demo off the Japanese Playstation Store.

TheHater5831d ago

part of the game is in English. The main menu is in English

whateveryousay5831d ago

It's pretty good.

Although I have to say, that demo is real short and leaves you REALLY wanting more

godofthunder105831d ago

i'll admit that i was never a mgs fan because of all the cut scenes but i was watching g4 and they said that mgs4 has more hours of cut scenes then game play and said that it will take about 8 min to download something to the ps3 and i've even read an article about it and i was wondering if anyone read anything else about it because i thought that the other mg games would have been good but it had to many cut scene and it look like the same thing will happen to mgs4 and it's a shame to wast all that space on stupid cut scsnes then game play.i know that cut scenes are needed but it's ridiculious on the mg games.

i was hopeing that haze would be on all the consoles because it looked like it would bring something different to shooters but every article i've read said that it was a big disapointment and g4 gave it a 2 out of 5 and they have other game reviews that gave it a bad mark to and i was wondering if it was anything like sony said it would be or it was a disappointment like the critics are saying.i've never played it but it looked like it would have been a good game.

Sega please bring yakuza 3 to the US. I loved the demo from the japanese store and even though I couldnt read what the words they were saying I still loved the finishing moves and how it played like shenmue. Hope they release that game here, they need more games like this. :)

DFresh5831d ago

I just saw the video to Quake Wars and it sucks big time.
The game is a major flop for every console.
Sony is fine and already n the position to takeover the 360 and Wii.

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow3d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1822d ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie2d ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

Take a nap, conspiracies are rotting your brain.

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

Hereandthere1d 22h ago

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow1d 8h ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

Cockney1d 2h ago

They chose well, Sony gave them the backing to pursue their dreams with no restrictions even tho their games especially dreams have very niche appeal. Media molecule and Sony deserve respect for this in an age of risk averse publishing.

RNTody2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno2d ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno2d ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii2d ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno2d ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
