hey Chris, i just bought a logitech quickcam 9000 pro and decided to plug it in the ps3 to do a video chat, and wow, the image quality is amazing, i was wondering if sony will ever allow 3rd party cams to work with some playstation eye games as i am sure this cam would pick up my motions alot better then the ps3 cam, just curious, thanks

Vengeful-Chaos | July 11th, 2009 at 6:17 pm
I hope there will be a disc version of a God of War demo, I have 4 (disc based) unique god of war demos and would love nothing more than to have one for the third installment. Hopefully they do like what they did with Chains of Olympus and release a special edition.
I am semi looking forward to the Killzone DLC it’s hard enough finding a game with the two map packs that have been released so I don’t know if the one being released will be worth my money. I would be so happy if it ended up being free, ya know companies do this type of thing -hint, hint-
Thanks for another week of PS info.

Fat Princess release date, please.
It’s been WAY too long.
A month ago we were supposed to get a release date for the game “soon”. Isn’t more or less one month’s time soon enough?!
“Sometime this Summer” is so vague you may as well say “Eventually”.
In the game industry you’re supposed to complete your projects by or before their deadline/due date. If you find a problem with a beta version of a working game and you have a limited amount of time between the end of the beta and the final release to fix it, you’re expected to complete the repairs before the final release regardless of what kind of issue it is.
Their deadline was June 2009, and they didn’t meet it. Their backup deadline is this summer.
It’s summer now. PSBlog’s deadline to give us a release date for Fat Princess passed a long time ago. “Soon” and “Sometime this Summer” will not suffice because they are too vague and it’s already summer.
We would like a deadline, preferrably one that isn’t so vague. An exact date would be ideal and it would give us something to look forward to. At this point, it’s safe to say that we’d be happy to hear(at the very least) what month Fat Princess will be released in.

Jeff… can I ask you a question?
Where the hell are all the PS3 JRPG’s?
Seriously WTF! The PS2 was king of that genre, yet pretty much every game coming out of Japan is either for the Wii or 360(lol)! Where’s the PS3 love? Are the M$ moneyhats that great?
I think we can fit all the PS3 JRPG’s on ONE hand (Valkyria, Folklore, Cross Edge, Disgaea 3, Eternal Sonata)! ONE HAND!!! The damn PS3 has been out for 3 years and there’s ONLY 5!!!!
W.T.F.
P.S. I know you have absolutely no control over this, but I need to bitch at someone :P

gdogg666 | July 12th, 2009 at 3:16 am
@20 hey about fat princess release date anything could have happened they could have had problems with online or there were bugs in the game that needed fixing it could be alot of things also what would u want a game filled with bugs and what not to make the game feel crappy andf what not or would u want a game done right and everything worked out right thats why the new batman game got delayed i believe was cus of bugs in the game that they wanted to work out so people would enjoy the game and everything just wait and be paition ok go play ff7 or re1 or mgs1 that will keep u busy till at least aug/sept

cowboyd21 | July 12th, 2009 at 5:01 am

God of War 3 fan kit is awesome

ShadOforce | July 12th, 2009 at 1:22 pm
@21
You know, whenever a bug or number of bugs are detected in a game like that, a patch is released to fix them. You don’t just shut the whole project down.
28
GregAshlin | July 12th, 2009 at 1:31 pm
Also trying to wait patiently for Fat Princess. I have so much want for that game, it’s ridiculous.
Also, just wanted to let you know that I’ve given up on receiving my Uncharted 2 Schwag Bag. I’m wondering if it ever actually existed in the first place. :( Thanks for the Beta code, at least.
