X-Men Origins: Wolverine Demo, iPhone Application Now Available – Exclusive PS3 Content!

Hey everyone! If you’ve yet to check out X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the PS3 demo is now available via the PlayStation Network, so download it today!

And, a new iPhone Application has released for X-Men Origins: Wolverine The Game, and for PS3 owners, there’s plenty reason to get excited.

On every PS3 Back of Box, shoppers will notice a 3-slash ‘icon’ beside the game description. Using the new iPhone App, entitled “Feral Sense,” users can utilize a new photo recognition technology to snap a photo of the icon to unlock 3D screenshots, trailers, wallpapers and more exclusive content directly on their iPhones.

Not only that, PlayStation.Blog is the exclusive home to another of the Wolverine App’s unlockable icons. Once you’ve downloaded the “Feral Sense” App from the iTunes Store, click the icon you see below and then capture the icon. You will gain instant access to even more content, compliments of PlayStation.Blog!

Click here to visit Uncaged.com, where you can learn more on how the application works, as well as gain access to all 5 iPhone icons for the X-Men Origins: Wolverine “Feral Sense” iPhone Application.

Why does the OFFICIAL PLAYSTATION BLOG have a story about the iPhone? Last time I checked Sony Portable device was the PSP.

  This isn\’t a gaming application, but a way for those that have both a PS3 and an iPhone (and a love of Wolverine) to take advantage of the technology.

LOL!

‘teh iPhone!!!’

I’m sure all the emo retards are jumping up and down and tinkling their panties over this news.

Maybe if we ask nicely some of the resident iPhone losers will post links to their ‘unboxing’ youtube videos!

It’s really a story about the content you can unlock, you just need the iPhone/iPod Touch to unlock it.

I’m not sure the higher-ups at Sony will approve of this cross-brand marketing when they hear about it, especially since Apple is trying to make a foray into the portable gaming venue.

Heads are going to roll, I’ll bet.

@Jeff

Still I dont know why it’s on the PlayStation Blog. Activision should promote their iPhone app some where else. I don’t think it’s appropriate.

This blog post is a little late on the demo. I already played it this weekend. Very nice demo but a little short. We should have been able to play a full level. I liked what he does with the helicopter pilot.

LOL OMFG! last i checked Sony was trying to beat apple:

“Apple’s iTunes Store uses its own proprietary DRM called FairPlay. I think this gives Sony a chance to provide something that Apple can’t. And we have to move ahead and grab that opportunity before Apple begins to provide support for other hardware and blocks us out.” -howard stringer

JUST KIDDING, this is actaully pretty useful news to anyone who has one.. however, many people would think Sony would have their own platform that can run these types of app *cough* *cough* PSP2 or just a better psp.

If only the PSP could do something like this.

Sony and Apple working together??? Could this lead to some new and interesting things in the future?

Makes me very excited as I love both companies :)

If only the PSP could atleast have an instant messaging app at the most I’d be happy.

I feel the same as InFaMoUs1 and TerryVSL.

I smell money. And weak advertising. I mean screenshots and trailers? Come on…

Speaking of the PSP, the next one better have dual analogue! everyone who reads this speak out! We want dual analogue! And perhaps a flash memory like the iPhone uses! Speak out or we might not get this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can’t stand the iPhone, but it’s cool to see the relationship with different technology being used in such ways as this.

Will there be something similar for the Google Phone? I don’t own a iPhone because it doesn’t work with T-Mobile

Oh and Jeff why is my other accounts banned? I don’t attack other users and insult them. I don’t spam or link to inappropriate articles of pictures. I felt that I was banned for no other reason than voice my opinion at Capcom and the way they tread their consumers this generation. And my other account was also banned even though I never posted with that account on the Playstation Blog. What is going on. When I try to post the name of my accounts that was banned, my comments don’t show up.

@22

yeah I actually found it quite disrespectful to promote an iPhone app on the PlayStation blog when PSP is trying to redeem itself in the main stream again with it’s amazing line up of games this year. I love my PSP and to see this in all places here it left a bad taste in my mouth.

What exactly do I type in to find this app? Cause I’m at the app store and I typed in X-men Origins Feral senses, and there was no results. Any help will be appreciated.

  If you search the term, \”Feral Sense,\” the Wolverine application should pop up as the sole result. It\’s a free download and you can snap the icon in the blog right off your monitor to unlock content. Let us know if any more questions!

That’s pretty cool, but I don’t have an iPhone. Why not give us some PSP content instead. :-)

May 11, 2009 at 2:50 pm PDT

I agree they should have given a bit more than just a trailer and screenshots.

But either way, if I had a iPhone and the game I would do it, why not? Free is free.

Why not have an application that works with my PSEYE instead? You know…since Cybercode type things are a SONY invention in the first place?

iTunes? I know it is popular but I’d rather stick Wolverine’s blades under my eyelids before using that software.

bball230, some of sony’s biggest competitors in some areas are also some of their best partners in others.

I’ll be downloading this laterz

Want to get all of the unlocks in 5 seconds?
Go to the flicker photo of the App main page. Then just use the iPhone to takes pics of the icons. DONE!

I downloaded the demo on Thursday, played it through once on Saturday, and bought the game on Sunday. It’s violent and extremely bloody- everything a Wolverine game should be. I was very impressed…

Thanks for the demo! :)

Seems if you have to take a picture, I would believe the extra’s are only for the iPhone knowing that the iPod Touch doesn’t have a built in camera.

@ Thrasher20

Checkout the Flicker link in the right hand column of this page. DL it and zoom it up with whatever viewer software you have. Then use the iPhone app to capture the icons directly off of the enlarged photo. Piece-O-Cake!

Wolverine was a great play, but after getting my platinum just now. I’m done for now if you don’t mind. But thumbs up for the team nonetheless.
