aiya Blu-Ray ps3 oso sure got "buatan malaysia" one lar coz that one is mass produce, unlike the UMD which is Sony Exclusive and that mini dvd disc used for GC which is Nintendo Exclusive. The Blu-Ray if not mistaken is backed by alot of company ya? So later sure got Blu-Ray burner, and someone would be able to "h4x0r" the PS3 games and then we chipped our Ps3 with Magic7 or a Messiah8 and Malaysia gamer can rejoice!! This is just a theory from me lar so dont get your hopes up tongue.gif

Why dang? Should be good news for pirates and users from this side of the globe. Otherwise people might just pack up and publicly claim gaming being too expensive and quit altogether.

Xbox 2 Gets More Square Enix Talent!!

Since the surprise announcement a couple of weeks back that Japanese development studio Mistwalker, a team headed up by Final Fantasy father Hironobu Sakaguchi, would be developing two Xbox 2 RPGs, things have seemingly gone quiet on the games... on our side of the Pacific, at least. In Japan, however, the island nation's most popular game magazine, Famitsu, has featured weekly interviews concerning the new projects.

This week's interview, conducted with Sakaguchi himself, contains a big surprise: more Square Enix talent for Xbox 2. According to the magazine, Daisuke Fukugawa, who previously served as battle planner on Final Fantasy Tactics and as planner for Legend of Mana is now serving at Mistwalker as director on one of the team's two projects. Hiroshi Arai, who supervised 3D graphic design for Final Fantasy 7 and served as modeling supervisor on Final Fantasy 9 is now at Mistwalker, doing modeling work on both projects.
Sakaguchi suggests in the interview that work on the new projects is progressing smoothly. Over one hundred developers are working on the games, which are being co-developed by Microsoft and Mistwalker. As was originally revealed, Mistwalker is working on the music and scenario sides of the games with Microsoft Game Studio handling the technical aspects.

If you want to play Sakaguchi games early in the next generation, you're going to have to get an Xbox 2. According to Sakaguchi, the only next generation games currently in development at Mistwalker are these two Xbox 2 titles, which pushes aside the possibility that the company is also developing for PlayStation 3 and Revolution at this time.

Microsoft Game Studios Chooses Unreal Engine 3

Epic Games, one of the world's leading developers of cutting-edge computer and videogames and the pioneer of the award-winning Unreal Engine, today announced that its Unreal Engine 3 technology and tools will be used in games developed by and published by Microsoft Game Studios.

Earlier this year, Epic became an official licensed tool and middleware provider for the next generation Xbox platform, and its partnership with Microsoft Game Studios further demonstrates its commitment to meet the challenges of developing for next generation hardware, and to deliver tools and technology that empower the development and publishing communities to efficiently deliver high quality, unique content.

In using Unreal Engine 3, the Microsoft Game Studios team will be able to truly exploit the unique hardware features of the next generation Xbox platform and harness the enormous power that its team has at its disposal.

"We only work with the best partners and utilize the best technologies, and Epic and the Unreal Engine 3 hit the mark on both those fronts," said Shane Kim, General Manager, Microsoft Game Studios. "Our teams are creating incredible games and content for the next generation Xbox platform, and by integrating Unreal Engine 3 into our development infrastructure we are able to really maximize our teams' performance and deliver the quality content and creativity that the market has come to expect from us."

Mark Rein, vice president of Epic Games agrees, "We are hugely excited that Microsoft Game Studios have selected Unreal Engine 3 for its next generation Xbox platform games. It's an opportunity for us to show the industry the true capabilities of our tools and technologies and is a testament to the incredible amount of hard work by our teams here to deliver tools and technologies that are 100% tuned into the needs of next generation development. It further demonstrates our ability to deliver the most flexible, most productive tools and technology in the market today."

QUOTE(Neowin)
Nintendo may leave Sony and Microsoft to squabble amongst themselves over who's got the best next-gen console at this year's E3, according to reports. Both the PS3 and Xbox 360 will go on show at the event, but reports from Japan say the Nintendo Revolution will remain under wraps. There'll be a few rolling demos of games currently in development, but no console and no revolutionary controller on display.

So why the decision to stay out of the limelight? Well, it seems that Nintendo boss Satoru Iwata is worried about rivals nicking all his best ideas at this early stage. That's how revolutionary the new console is, apparently... and also the exact same line Nintendo used to avoid showing Mario 128 at a previous E3. So what exactly can we expect to see on the Nintendo stand? Well, most of the space will be devoted to promoting the new Nintendo Online service.

aik, tak jadi combine ah the BluRay and HDDVD? I think that MS did a smart move by not changing the standards for the 360. The DVD format is still relatively new, dunno why they all so rushed to introduce new standards oredy.

i got this xbox-tribe regarding the Revolution:

Perrin Kaplin, Nintendo of America's VP for corporate affairs, went on record with the following tidbits about the Revolution - that will be released sometime next year:

-Wireless controllers
-Backwards compatibility (with the GameCube)
-Internet will be important
-WiFi ready out of the box
-Sleek design that will stand on its side (she said the size would be the same as 3 DVD cases sitting on top of each other)
-DVD format discs (and it will play DVD movies)

well well well, look whos joining the DVD community. I guess if we cant beat em', join em' eh tongue.gif

cannot be liao, but seeing the competitor using the normal format, they may have felt left out i think. So now "maybe" Revolution is using DVD, 360 confirm DVD, do u think Sony will still use Blu-Ray for the PS3?
