Despite previous plans to release Full Auto 2: Battlelines as a "day and date" launch title with the PlayStation 3, SEGA of America has retracted that notion and confirmed with IGN that it has pushed the game back by several weeks. Here's what the company's official spokesperson had to say:
"The release of Full Auto 2: Battlelines for the PS3 is on track for a holiday 2006 release," commented the SEGA's rep. "This highly anticipated award-winning combat racing title is setting the bar on the PS3 with an intense multiplayer mode that enables up to eight gamers to play head-to-head online. SEGA is targeting an early December ship date."
Other than what was stated above, SEGA didn't provide any additional particulars regarding Full Auto 2's release. Popular online retailers Gamestop and EB Games, however, list Battlelines as appearing on December 12.

As amazing as it may seem given Sony Computer Entertainment's track record with the PlayStation franchise, the PlayStation 3 has undoubtedly been the outside bet for the current-generation since it's launch back in March 2007. Arriving late in Europe, with successful Japanese and North American launches already under its belt, an incredibly high price-tag and it's underdog status has seen the PlayStation 3 achieving slow but consistent growth across the continent in the ensuing three years.
Hey GR8 1 doesn't it speak volums when the PS3 is turning 3 and the 360 is gonna be 5 that the Playstation is only a few million in sales behind xbox... Given the same amount of time out on shelves the Playstation 3 will be far a head of the 360, and currently the only people buying 360's are those who are rebuying it, yes it still counts for sales, but the number of people actually using it isn't growing, but PS3's is, you fail every time you comment to the point that people can't even take any bubbles away from you any more... Take a break from commenting, learn a thing or two, Log on with a new name and try again.
I got my PS3 just after launch and had some great times playing some amazing games. Been one of the best things I have ever bought.
So much has happened in 3 years, can't wait to see what happens in the next 3 years.
Every console has ups and downs during it's lifespan, and the PS3 is no different. But as avengers1978 is saying in the Open Zone (---->), the PS3 launch around eighteen months after the 360 in Europe, and is only just lagging behind. I've got every console in this and most generations, and while I personally prefer the 360 this time around, there's no denying the PS3 is doing some great things... (despite the legal issues!)
And let's not forget - three years into the original Xbox's life and the Xbox 360 was already on shop shelves!
Today Sony announced a demo for its automotive combat game Full Auto 2: Battlelines is now available from the U.S. PlayStation Website. The game was released in March and is the portable version of the PlayStation 3 title. Battlelines drops high-speed vehicles outfitted with weapons and armor into destructible urban environments. Players can destroy the streets to dynamically change track conditions and block competitors, open new paths, or crush opponents with falling debris.
The PSP version features exclusive content such as a new 56 event single-player story mode, 15 selectable cars designed for the handheld port, and numerous multiplayer and arena modes for ad-hoc connections.
So we'll have to wait 'til December. Big Deal.
That this game gets cancelled. I doubt any fanboy would dare say a thing, for regardless of any improvements, there is just something fundamentally "broken" with Full Auto.
well i dont know about all of you guys, but I enjoyed Full Auto on the 360 and couldnt wait to play Full Auto 2, but i guess that'll have to wait. I still dont see how everyone hated that game, you guys obviously dont like blowing sh!t up, cause that game was sweet on Xbox 360 and prolly the same on PS3. So how this game sucks, I Do Not Know, but i think a lot of you gamers just either hated Twisted Metal, or prefere Burnout over Full Auto. Cause Full Auto Kicked Ass.
