"Last Saturday, Digital Foundry took a look at the 3D gaming potential soon to be unlocked by a new system upgrade for the PlayStation 3. We talked about what was out there already, discussed Ubisoft's Avatar and the performance levels of current 3D titles, and suggested that Sony was planning something more technologically advanced than what we've seen in the current implementations of 3D games - something that justified the upcoming firmware upgrade.
Our theory? It made sense that the PS3 upgrade would facilitate support for the new 3D protocols in the HDMI 1.4 standard, specifically the provision for full resolution 3D - basically a double-height, or double-width framebuffer. Thanks to an assist from SCEE, Digital Foundry had the chance to pose a few questions to the Housemarque Super Stardust HD tech team: engine lead Seppo Halonen and creative director Harri Tikkanen."
If you've been hankering for an intro to Housemarque's brand of adrenaline-filled action, then here are 3 awesome titles you should try.
Do it! It’s a seriously addictive experience. Housemarque is the master of modern arcade classic gameplay. Curious to see how Returnal turns out tbh.
Thanks. Downloaded it and will be playing it shortly.
Pre-ordered Returnal too.
Yep, had a lot of fun playing it with my kids. Although they always fight over the drops.
Finland’s longest standing game development studio, Housemarque, today announced that it is licensing Unreal Engine 4 and moving away from its own in-house technology for future projects, including a soon-to-be-announced title.
Agreed, I found d their games to be fun and enjoyable... To bad I seem to be the minority.
Well, I haven't played all of their games, but "Nex Machina" is pretty darn cool imo.
I didn't read that. I've read that while they are planning to expand into multiplayer, the only thing they've decided to give up on is the top-down arcade shooter style of games because the last couple have sold in decreasing amounts.
Too bad for me as I've enjoyed most of their games. Now I feel bad that I didn't buy Matterfall but I just didn't like the addition of platforming into the mix.
I haven't read anywhere that those MP games wouldn't include SP.

- Ah, now I got what @TheOttomatic91 meant with "Damn it sucks they won't be doing any SP games anymore.". Well, to be fair, "Matterfall" isn't exactly one of their better titles...
IDK what to expect. Me and my GF love HM hopefully they keep making couch coop games.
You can now enjoy one additional free PS Plus game for PS3 in March 2016, if you managed to get it earlier.
can it get any better for Sony this year. the Wand, 3D gaming and 3D films, GOW3, Heavy Rain and GT5!!! watch out America, Sony are about to turn you into the next Europe and Europe into the next Japan
They should call it Super Stardust Seizure.
120 fps gaming only on trey
"Uncharted 3 in 3D" *bodies dropping like dominoes*
