Twelve whole minutes of the Bat and the Cat.

Batman: Arkham City will be released on PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360. It hits shelves on October 18th 2011.

In a bit more than 2 minutes Sony’s E3 Campaign is summed up. More or less…………

Well it seems that Sony is trying to hold the interest of gamers. In the aftermath of the chaos that was the PSN Blackout, Sony keeps the ball rolling. Apparently PSP games will be given the HD treatment and ported to the PS3. I guess this is a good idea. For those that have never had a PSP, they get to play the best of the best from the hand held in HD. With the announcement of the NPG this is not shocking. We all have certain games that we would like to make the move over. Sony is on the slow train as always in releasing exactly what games will get the upgrade. At least we have know what one of them are.

Monster Hunter Freedom 3:

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is said to also be heading to the PS3. If so it will most likely be announced at this years E3. What would you like to see brought over to the PS3?! This is my short list.

Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core

Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep

GOW: Ghost Of Sparta

Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday

You can look for more information about PSP Remastered at E3. June 6-9. Stay tuned………

Well that only took forever. Here is low down from Sony. As for me I’m going to bed.

System Update:

Kazuo Hirai PlayStation Network Announcement:

If PSN ever comes back. As an apology for the down time Sony will be offering 2 free games to all PSN members.

“We will be offering PSN users the opportunity to select two PS3 games from a list of five, as well as offering PSP users the opportunity to choose two games from a list of four. We will let you know exactly what games are available very soon.” – Nick Caplin – Head of Communications, SCEE

The games are most likely going to be crap but you never know. But if they really want to apologize, its simple get up and running ASAP.
