Top secret PS3 project mentioned in FullSail Email

This just hit the net sent out by FullSail to many recepient. Its about the career of a gradutuate who now developes for Sony Computer Entertainment. The artilce then goes on hint towards a "TOP SECRET PROJECT". Quotes Below:

Quote:
A 180 degree shift from his initial work at the company, Yunpeng is currently assigned to a top-secret project for Sony's PlayStation 3 gaming division, and while he couldn't reveal too much about the software code, his excitement speaks volumes about what gaming fans can expect from the next-generation of the PlayStation brand.

Yunpeng then goes on to say:

""What I'm working on now is very new, and something that hasn't been seen on any other console before- "

What could this never before seen top secret project be? Let the speculation begin.

[Xi]

pre-hype.

[SRuN4]

this didn't even come from sony. i love when someone else mentions something about the PS3 it automatically turns into hype from sony. this came from full sail, they do it alot with people who have graduated from their school.

[MADGameR]

Uh oh! 360 is REALLY IN TROUBLE NOW! SONY's new project THREATENS the titan, the X Box 360 and the Wii!

[Wargasm]

So? i thought Xi's comment was pretty funny

this has to be the 5th pre-hype article ive seen in a few days for sony.... or for that matter the other consoles.

Oooooh! theres the possibility that (insert console) might make a big announcement about something.... maybe

This post should be re-titled "SOMETHING MIGHT HAPPEN"

[Texas GMR]

By the time this "top-secret" project is finished it will be multi-platform for the PS3 and the XBOX 720. :-)

[Phantom_Lee]

another agency story?

[Vojkan]

Did you ever heard anyone from Sony hype The agency? No, some podcast guys did it and everyone swallowed it. Stop blaming Sony when they have nothing to do with over hyping the agency or this so called "top secret".

[tehcellownu]

at least its not pac man or a freaken web browser for a damn cell...ill accept the agency with open hands because i know this game can be awesome!!..also i hope its somethin big their workin on dont want to fall into any hype....

[ShAkKa]

the agency news were very good.

[Phantom_Lee]

I'm not bad mouth the agency...I was just wondering is this another agency story...or a new game

[power of Green]

Yada yada yada my console has some big bad secret that will make all of you pay for talking bad about it.

[Fart_Bubbles]

that if it was a secret project for his xbotch he would be here hyping it up and telling us PS3 owners how it's all over for us...

this idiot makes fanboys look sane.

[FA-SHO]

You and I have both been around a long time, eh??? (this is LeonSKennedy4Life talking...I'm using my little brother's name. my name is MySwordIsHeavenly now) I was just wondering if you remember the good ol' days...before the PS3 and Wii were out...and you, mart, dj, dcrider360, and enforcer battled it out...

Those were the days!!!

*stiffle, will ya edith?*

had to say it...sorry.

[aaquib2]

It'll be the Agency again or maybe HOME. These no name sites are mostly all bs, and I ONLY trust QJ, Kotaku, IGN, and Gamespot.

[cookiemonster]

you trust ign?

[Raist]

and kotaku ? :p

[ch_ymh]

I don't think Home or The Agency(MMO) is a big secret for our PS3 players= ="; In my opinion, what he's going to do is something firmware or software related.

[FadedDRFT]

It could be barbies special adventures.

[Bonsai1214]

its a college in florida that pumps out game devs like no other school. go to their website and check out the demos they have there and you'll be very impressed that they were done by one person who isn't officially out of college yet

[tosh61]

its probably not gonna be some huge game. they just mentioned it being secret that they just haven't really "announced" it yet. If it were some huge game that page would've been more noticeable

[WoundedMoon]

... you just WAIT!...

[ch_ymh]

I wish a new firmware or software will be included in the secret project so that PS3 is going to be more user-friendly.

[bootsielon]

At first, I thought "All this hype for JUST a random MMO named The Agency? WTF, how boring". Then I saw the video of the game, and frankly it got me really excited. IT looks pretty cool. If it's true that none of that has been seen in consoles (and hopefully not on PC or arcade or anywhere else either), then it could be a killer app, if well delivered. After seeing what Sony did with Singstar, Buzz, EyeToy and the next EyeToy games, not to mention a few good uses of SixAxis in games, I have faith. (I know you'll mention killzone, but come on, Sony doesn't screw up everything; there's god of war... and come on, news about Killzone's engine sound promising)

[ALLGAMER]

I just love the hell outta my PS3. Its the greates console ever made. I just cant believe in my mind, that someone would actually pick the 360 over the ps3. THese people have to be truly clueless!!
Its the PLAYSTATION people, PLAYSTATION!!
Its the Rolls Royce of gaming consoles, while the 360 is a Ford Probe.
Ford Probes aernt bad mind you, its just the they break down a LOT!!!!

[Fart_Bubbles]

Im with ya brother, I was a die hard xbox 1 fan even though I had a PS2 as well. This time around the PS3 kicks the ever loving chit out of xbox 1.5

There's a reason all the xbots swarm around any positive PS3 news like flys on chit. try as the might though the PS3 will prevail. I predict that some games will even make mainstream news in how graphically intensive and revolutionary they are.

at that point all these 12 year olds will have tanker truck full of crow to eat.

[razer]

Great console with GREAT GAMES in PLENTY, Xbox Live, Multimedia features which the PS3 just recently got some of with the last FW update. But it still doesn't have all the features the 360 has.

I am with you that the PS3 is a great machine and I consider myself fairly tech savvy and to say I am clueless because I bought an Xbox 360 is ignorant of you. I've got 2 360's and both have never broken down on me so I can't relate really to the hardware failurs. So what makes me so clueless again? If anything I question my PS3 purchase since besides a couple good games I don't use it much.

[neogeo]

My Probe ran just fine. into the day I sold it. Have you know it has a Mazda 626 under the hood baby!

[THC PRITCHARD]

maybe its a x box 360 emulator lol

ch_ymh This is for u mate

Bill is already at war with sony!

[ch_ymh]

If xbox360 emulator is going to be released, Bill Gate is going to have a war with SONY=_=

[Violater]

With a bang.!

[FA-SHO]

and he's owning!!!

[calderra]

So they're launching... some new game?
Wow. I'm so excited.

All this talk about "never seen on a console before" is a bit dated, as well. Peter Jackson used it all talking about King Kong on consoles, and followed up with increasingly splintered banter about the Wingut Interactive Halo project.

Is this a new trend in the console industry? Hyping titles before they even really enter production? Before most of the people involved even know what they're actually working on? I don't like it, regardless of who's involved.

[Venom]

it's the grill add-on! YES! finally!

joking, don't go cannabalistic on me.

[Blood_Spiller]

Who are we fooling, we all know its Ms Pac-Man Super 1080p HD!

[Numark]

anyone else waiting for all these great ps3 games to come out? becuase it has honestly been a year and I have seen anything. I consistently hear about all these great games coming out in 2008 or 2009 or 2011.

I guess the ps3 is going to have a hell of a lot of great games in the future.

[dantesparda]

Wow! your time telling capabilities are astonishing! please teach me your ways. Nov 17, 2006, was one year ago? Wow! your good!

[Numark]

sorry i dont pay attention and memorize dates my hardware got released. Im not a total nerd... :)

and I bet I can make that statement when it has been exactly one year, and it will hold true. The ps3 unfortunatly has no good games quite yet, but will be getting some in time

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

It's a shame you can't remember just a few months ago...

You should probably get that checked out...

Speaking of which, the best versions of Oblivion, Rainbow Six:Vegas, Fight Night Round 3, and GRAW 2 are/will be in the next few weeks residing on the PS3. I guess you're still waiting for Halo 3 then, huh sugar???

Well, don't get too down about it...The Darkness comes out in a couple of weeks. Of course, I already have the better version of it paid off. Man, Blu-ray really isn't needed...especially for all that extra CRAP they're putting on the PS3 version. I mean, come on...who wants their game to be more fun than it already is??? More fun??? No, we wouldn't want that.

To my knowledge, the 360 has just a handfull of games itself...if I'm not mistaken. Dead Rising, Gears of War, and Crackdown...very fine games. Halo 3...there's a tall glass of water if I ever saw one. mmhhhhh...that's good. Of course, it's still the same mediocre shooting you've been LOVING for years, but that's ohkay. We all love mediocrity. Yeah...from now on...jumping in isn't really our style, is it ol' buddy? It's more of a slow crawling in. After Mass Effect, Halo 3, and Bioshock...there isn't much originality...

...can I use an old term here for a second. It was the origin of the word PWNED! Way back when gaming wasn't all about paying off certain companies to bring certain franchises to your system...we used a word known as "fragging".

You, sir, have been fragged.

[DrunKao]

LeonSKennedy4Life, that was an amazing post. no sarcasm. But man, that was harsh.

[Lucidmantra]

Actually the term PWNED is PLAYER OWNED... It started in MMOs. When you would PVP and get your clock cleaned in a way that meant that person owned you and you should probibly log off and stay away from them.

FRAGGED started in FPS games like Unreal Tourney, Quake, and other such items.

Just for info.

[Mishmash19]

I remember playing the GTA series on the computers in high school back in the day, and we would play each other through the LAN network. Whenever someone died, it would say that you have been "fragged" in big bold letters across your screen. Good times...

[Munky]

"Speaking of which, the best versions of Oblivion, Rainbow Six:Vegas, Fight Night Round 3, and GRAW 2 are/will be in the next few weeks residing on the PS3. I guess you're still waiting for Halo 3 then, huh sugar???"

Just wanna know how you came to the conclusion that the "best versions" are on the PS3...

[pwnaplaya]

@Lucidmantra

I guess you do learn something new everyday I always thought that the term PWNED came into play when the P key was mistakenly hit when trying to type OWNED. Guess I was wrong.

[TheExecutive]

A game called "A Simple Life: paris hilton goes to jail" she battles off bull dykes and probing security guards.

[Rhezin]

LOL I wonder what this "killer app" is. The ONLY game I'll give props to the ps3 is uncharted, other than that I don't see anything worth buying a ps3 4 and I gurantee you Lair will be very disappointing.

[TheExecutive]

maybe but warhawk, mgs4, and heavenly sword all look great. I still hold out hope for Lair

[TheExecutive]

maybe but warhawk, mgs4, and heavenly sword all look great. I still hold out hope for Lair, KZ2, and Rachet and Clank.

I really do think these 6 games are going to be good games and worth a ps3 by themselves

[Bits-N-Kibbles]

that it is something to do with the eye toy like aqua vita or sky blue, or something similar like an eye-toy. Maybe a holographic 3-D key board or gloves? I forget what movie that glove thing is from, o well.

Seriously now, people need to stop hyping stuff up. It just gets people like me anxious and excited and usually turns out to be some small news that i don't even read... Everyone should just relax and wait for E3 where the major news and games will be!

[Rhezin]

Ya I'm speaking too soon, I mean there's no real way of knowing until the game is out, we'll just have to see, but I HATE waiting, why do they do this to us!>!

[Neo Amon]

finally!! Chuck Norris in 4D

[Lucidmantra]

LMAO

[23478ueyur_938223]

I infer, based on what most of the article said, that this is probably not a game that is being talked about. It doesn't really give you any hints to what specifically though, it just mentions that Zhu is helping generate some sort of software.

"These days, Yunpeng puts his experience toward helping create the software that millions of gamers around the world will soon find in their gaming consoles."

After reading that, it seems more than likely that it is firmware related.

[darx]

Maybe it's JD...

[fjtorres]

Since Sony says PS3 is a computer and computers need spreadsheets...
That has never been seen on a console before.
Everything else?
Done already. ;-)

[Saint Sony]

Never seen before in any console... ok that must be something really cool.

Like this,

[23478ueyur_938223]

LOL! Japanese gameshows are hilarious.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

What is wrong with you? That was the best thing I've seen since...

yep...it's my dog...

[Shaka2K6]

Cant wait to hear more about this.

[ErcsYou]

that sooooo funny. i think the same thing all the time. ever notice that every once in a while you catch a ps3fanboy kissing some xbots @$$ for bubbles. n4g is hilarious ... i love the title

[razer]

The Sony fanboys do the same thing. I've watched my bubbles disappear when I've said something that Sony fans don't want to hear. It's the nature of the site and using words like xshits sounds like you deserve it.

[timmyp53]

. when sony says something then we get excited okay..?

[Devilbringer]

I know Maybe firmwave where you can Call ppl from you ps3. you just need a mic and you can call who ever you want for free of charge. now that would be awesome. well i Should go day-dreaming some more..

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

I bought a Wii a few weeks ago...and I'm now officially bored.

My bro's on the PS3...so, I have NOTHING TO DO!!!

BTW...I'M BACK BABY!!!

[DrunKao]

You bought a Wii? Now you're just another statistic. :shakes head:

[sandip787]

you ok man, havent seen you in a while, where you been?

[FA-SHO]

This is Leon. I'm on my lil bro's name.

Thanks for the welcome back dude. I've been using the name MySwordIsHeavenly...

Good to see you...

[sak500]

Sony has WMD..

Weapons of Mass Deception.

[felidae]

i want to know ... NOW!

[Bloodmask]

Sony always have so many secrets?

.......and anouncememts of anouncements?

just a thought.

[Captain Tuttle]

What the heck is FullSail? So it's a school. Big Deal. I don't beleive stuff that SONY says anymore about the PS3 so why should I believe these clowns?

[Ravenator529]

The last time I bit into some huge Sony hype, they announced that they were coming out with a pink PS2.

They need something big.

[sandip787]

well judging by the last major announcements by sony, ie home etc, i hope this one, although not sony will be a good one

[Sphinx]

So this whole thing is about someone being excited about something, but we don't know what it is?

[neogeo]

because I never owned a PS2. I rented God of war 2 yesterday. pretty great.

[OneBubbleBastard]

watup my ONE BUBBLE HOMIES....

I exhort every Xbot here to please quit being retards and show my ONE BUBBLE FRIENDS some love... Give them some bubbles please for our intelligent posts sake...

Bubbles for me??? NAWWWWW I'll smack whoever dares to give me positive feedback..

PS: I still do conversions, but now only on holidays.. way to many retarded xbots wanted conversions on weekends and it was too difficult to convert them because they had M$'s d*ck too far their @sses.. sooooo it took too much of my weekends time. :)

PM is free later my ONE BUBBLE friends

[Aeroglyphics]

Its the a tools for developers, like an engine or maybe a part of an engine like a Physics tool or a lighting tool. I don't think a lot of people realize that these tools are what we need to get better. When the tools get better so will the games. Then you can expect the better graphics, physics, lighting, and you can expect development time to be a lot less.

[Meus Renaissance]

It's probably something that won't actually concern us gamers. Hence, it is BS.

[potepenko]

cmon now, sony is a japanese company while microsoft is an american company. japan is where the great technology comes from. just imagine how much shiet is in the ps3 that we dont know about. all of crapbox360's features are known and the ps3 already has em.

hmmm compare a japanese or korean engineered cellphone to some crap motorola razr that breaks all the time.

[razer]

Stop being such an idiot troll.. How old are you 12?

I think if you look at all the numbers it's MS who is owning Sony. (for now at least)

[xsantorox]

I live in the central florida area and have looked into fullsail before and even know a couple people who have attended. Its a complete joke and a rip-off. Its basically a place for slackers and burnouts to go and pretend they go to college(I probably would have fit in perfectly). They do have state of the art equipment, but that really means nothing when they let any jerk-off willing to throw their money down the drain attend. Fullsail is really just looking to take peoples money in exchange for a bullshit degree and a half-ass education.

[Boon Tarkas]

Wonka..wonka..whatever!
