So the BBC saw an unreleased PS3 game that was supposedly mindblowing...does anyone have an idea what it could be....

Is it:

1-Heavy Rain?

2-God of War 3?

3-That game shown @ E3 2k8 with the dude in the black space suit?

4-something else?


Just curious if anyone has heard anything :/

 

[Nirolak]

The guy from the BBC said it wasn't officially announced or shown off at any event. If the game is still even in development is questionable honestly.

 

[Dabanton]

To be told what the secret PS3 game is. Is to step into a place that only the strongest minds can return from.

yeah i hope

 

[Foster]

Planet earth game

 

[Ether_Snake]

Heavy Rain.

And yes I know the guy said it wasn't, but I'm sure it is. He's just some journalist who got his info confused or something.

Or ICO3.

Or canceled.

Did you know the reporter who supposedly saw the secret PS3 game has disappeared?

Yeah...I am beginning to wonder if it might have been 8 days....a game I was really looking forward to

Dude said after E3 he was disappointed Sony hadn't shown it. And he reiterated it was not HR. It's either Team ICO's game or something we haven't heard about yet. (that narrows the options huh? )

The meme started with the BBC guy. Of course PS3 owners will always be on the lookout for THAT mistery game that FINALLY will show the true superiority of the triple.

(guilty, kinda)

Top Gear? But they already signed a deal with polyphony digital for their content to be in GT5.

A NEXT METAL GEAR IS.

So what else was I shown? Well, I was shown a trailer for a game not due out till 2009 but was sworn to absolute secrecy. Apparently, Sony just wanted to give a glimpse of what the console will be capable of.

In fact, the game is such a secret that when I mentioned the game to Phil Harrison last week he was unsure at first whether even to admit the title existed. When I explained I had been shown it under strict Non Disclosure Agreement terms he looked relieved.

I don't mean to be a tease - all I can say is that I was left speechless. If the footage I was shown truly is "in game", as told to me by the Sony PR people, then we could be on the brink of a step change in what games consoles are capable of in terms of story-telling and immersion.

And there I'll leave it. Feel free to speculate on what I was shown. I cannot, of course, confirm or deny what it was....

Of course, we can still all laugh at anyone putting this game on their lists. That's sad. Oh and pathetic, too.

EDIT: beaten dirty

 

[Kill Your Masters]

From the sound of it, I'd say it's Heavy Rain.

Since when is the secret BBC game a meme? Huh??

I'd call that a forced meme.

I'd call that a forced meme.

Then you clearly missed the build up to the "official site" and the official thread around here.

That was born of the lists in the October NPD, then the "Official Secret PS3 Game" thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=342029&highlight=secret+ps3+game

Admittedly, if I were going to buy a joke domain I'd at least make it creative. :lol

I did. Also, I'm not good with judging memes.

if you didn't know about the GAF joke and the thread from last month's NPD, could you please remove the facepalm.gif response to my post?

There are so many unannounced games in development. I doubt there is any one "secret" game.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

BBC?

Snuff Box: The Video Game?

 

[ZealousD]

Article was written back in February, Heavy Rain had a big role out after that.

He's already said it wasn't Heavy Rain since that was what most people thought it was.

Planet Earth BluRay?

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

It was probably 8 days.

 

[spwolf]

At this point, Sony should rename one of their new games to "Secret Game" just for kicks

 

[Guled]

I'm sure its Heavy Rain

 

[Mau ®]

I love secret PS3 games!

me too

But seriously, I think it's Heavy Rain.

 

[Rindain]

Pretty sure it was God of War 3 gameplay footage.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

First rule of Secret PS3 Game, you don't talk about Secret PS3 Game.

 

[Convergys]

it was god of war 3

 

[SolidSnakex]

Pretty sure it was God of War 3 gameplay footage.

Doesn't really fit with his description

If the footage I was shown truly is "in game" then we could be on the brink of a step change in what games consoles are capable of in terms of story-telling and immersion.

 

[Hazaro]

If it's the BBC it sounds like Heavy Rain.

 

[Cyport]

It wasn't heavy rain or MAG or God Of War 3 because the BBC guy went to the Sony E3 conference this year which they showed trailers for and he said he was disappointed they didn't show the secret game.

People, he explicitly said that it's not HR.

I think it might be a game from Sony Liverpool or Cambridge.
