First off, we thank QJ reader ShinFuYux for the tip! Now onto
business: back in January, we talked about the the Sony-Namco Bandai
venture dubbed as Cellius Inc. The joint-venture will be focusing on
developing games which can maximize the capabilities of the PS3's Cell
Processor. This new company is headed by Ken Kutaragi. Months have
passed and we haven't heard about any of the games that they are
working on...until now.
We have here some scans new PS3 games that have been announced from
the Cellius project - Brave Arms, Chain Limit, and Second Season 01.
Since we don't understand Japanese, here's what we know about them, so
far.
* Brave Arms - What appears to be a third-person action game in
the vein of Ninja Gaiden. One man takes on an oppressive regime in
revolt.
* Chain Limit - A James Bond/Jack Bauer style, spy adventure type
of game.
* Second Season 01 - A first person, drama/sci-fi action title.
Apparently, these three games represent different narrative genres -
one is action, the other survival, the other is investigative. All of
them are QTE (Quick Time Event) fests wherein all its gameplay will
involve selecting the available targets on screen and pressing buttons
to do different actions to change how the scenes play out.
Also, all three are cinematic games which will involve bravery,
heroes, danger among many others. With the news that Devil May Cry 4
is going multi-platform, details about these three exclusive PS3
titles is certainly good news. We'll certainly update you as more info
comes our way.
