Postal 3 might make its way to the Playstation 3 according to the developers. When developers Running With Scissors released their press release they stated this:

“We are seriously considering PlayStation 3,”

Not only that but when SCRAWL contacted Running With Scissors regarding the PS3 version the developer replied with this:

“We are now in the early stage of designing POSTAL III for the PS3. Every developer has their own approach, so while we started first on the Xbox 360, we are now committing to the PS3 as well, and hopefully who knows maybe even the Wii.”

That above statement pretty much confirms it to be honest. So we will see Postal 3 on the Playstation 3.

Square Enix’s Playstation Portable RPG master piece has reached sales of more than 1,250,000. Confirmed by Square Enix in their annual financial report. Around 800,000 Japanese copies and around 450,000 copies have been sold since it’s release back on the 13th of September and 24th of March respectively. Europe will have to wait until the 20th of June for the release and surely that will add more numbers to the report.

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII

This is great news for Square Enix and there is no reason why they shouldn’t make a Final Fantasy VII remake for the Playstation 3 because it would diffinitely make them a ton of money.

EGM have reported a number of rumors saying that Bioshock will be heading to the Playstation 3. We now have official details straight from the EGM July 2008 issue.

BioShock Playstation 3

Here’s what EGM have to say about BioShock, the Playstation 3 version.

“- The graphics are the same as the Xbox 360 version of the game, although they may possibly notch it up a bit but it is still unknown.- The game will feature the Plasmid and fixes given to the Xbox 360 version via downloadable content right out of the box.

- The development team does admit that they are working with Sony to potentially “extend and augment the game” but it is too early to talk about it.

- The development team says “whatever we end up with via our discussions with Sony, coupled with the fact that BioShock allows you to go through and roll your own shooter in the first place…these two factors together would turn into a motive for replay.” That being if you already had the Xbox 360 version of the game.

- The rest is them talking about the actual game and story and big developers like Ted Price from Insomniac Games weigh in on the title.”
