Popular 360 Exclusive Coming To PS3?
We first said it several years ago: the days of the third-party exclusive are all but over. Now, it appears that yet another exclusive will be leaping to another platform, although we have nothing but speculation and teasing at this point.
Apparently, TheSixthAxis has inside information that the PlayStation 3 will be receiving a game that was formerly exclusive to the Xbox 360. It has to stay "under wraps" right now but supposedly, more information will be revealed within the next month. The studio that plans to make this big announcement also has "other exciting news to share soon enough," so perhaps during a typical summer where big news is tough to find, this will be a head-turner. Of course, we've heard such claims from sites before and many times, these so-called "inside confirmations" are nothing more than ill-advised attempts to drum up some extra traffic. However, feel free to guess at the mystery title; it almost can't be Gears of War as we believe Microsoft owns the publishing rights to that, and we'd like to think it's Splinter Cell: Conviction, but TheSixthAxis makes it sound like the game is already in existence on the 360. We really have no idea what it might be, but here's hoping it's true, at least.
And by the way, no, this isn't the special PS3 exclusive that we at PSXE know about. That game has yet to arrive for any platform and unfortunately, we're not allowed to talk about it, either...not for a little while, at any rate.

Bioware is also doing dreagon's origin for ps3 and they love PS3 as well
EA owns the mass effect ip and Bioware had a 5 year old agreement with MS since Jade empire.
so definitely it is Mass effect
also L4D will be coming to ps3 as well since VALVE are now hiring ps3 programmers

This teasing thing SUCKS big time. I mean, what the heck is wrong with these so-called journalists these days? "I know this game is coming and I swear that's gona blow you away but if I tell you more, I'll have to kill you". C'mon, I mean keep your mouth shut if you can't say shit!
Also, why is the PS community going crazy right away? I mean, who knows if it's a major 360 exclusive or an XBLA title?

That is the only game coming to the Xbox360 that has me tempted... But then again my PC can handle it and its most likely going to look better on it anyways and most likely cheaper...
SC:Conviction form the videos I saw is kind of a big disappointment, I loved the series when it was all about stealth and now after Double Agent and Conviction, the series keeps getting further and further away from its root.
Also the graphics look underwhelming but that might be just because I'm spoiled with KZ2 and U2:AT :-)

You know, a thought just struck me after reading your post. How wild and crazy would it be if Microsoft stunned the gaming world by developing a PS3 title? Seriously, Sony develops games for PC, so why not?
How much could Microsoft stand to make from Halo3 on PS3? Or any of the other big '1st party' exclusive 360 titles? Just a thought...

fable II - lionhead studios
banjo-kazooie: nuts and bolts -rareware
Ninja Gaiden II -tecmo
these are possibilities... however, i don't think lionhead studios would care much for developing on PS3 but, the other two might be interested... i'd love to see rare go multi-plat... but, there's nothing interesting on the xbox360 right now that would peak my interest...
if rare does decide to develop for the PS3 though, i might try my first backflip!!

Left4Dead is such a mediocre game that i will actually be pissed if Valve ports it to the ps3 (though the good news is that HL3 might be on ps3 then).
Fable II on ps3 would blow my freaking mind. I've been waiting for a pc port, but i will buy it for ps3 on day one. The first Fable was one of my favorite xbox games. MS owns Lionhead though, so its a very slim chance that will happen.

1. Make a Lost Odyssey 2 and release on PS3.
2. Square team up the original Chrono Trigger talent and make a new Chrono game on PS3.
3. Make an ICO 3 on PS3, which is now underway, namely "The Last Guardian". ;)

You know, it doesn't say "ONLY ON XBOX360" on the cover of the game. hint hint
Sorry but Lost Odyssey does, so it isn't likely to be Lost Odyssey coming to PS3.
Infinite Undiscovery has the dreaded "ONLY ON XBOX360" box too so it isn't that either.
High hopes is for Star Ocean 4 since it doesn't have that ugly little box on it.

I got wut u r saying, but "x360 doesnt have any game..." -- that is a bit extreme, altho I rarely touch my 360, it does bring fun to me with the few games I have.
Also Lost Odyssey is NOT a mega flop, imo that is the best JRPG this gen so far, too bad Mistwalker is funded by Microsoft, therefore chances for it to come to PS3 is very very slim.

Did you fail to notice that for every new game the xbox360 gets...Sony is 2-3 new exclusives. They need the games, Sony doesn't.
Look I hope its Mass Effect (because a lot of the PS community would enjoy a game like that) but its probably one of those XBLA titles.
-Valve can keep L4D because that game looks like Wii-ish graphically. I want their PS3 team to make Half-Life 3 shine on the PS3. They can keep the rest.
-We already got an upgraded Ninja Gaiden 2 (Sigma 2 has 4 playable characters and co-op).
-Gears & Halo would just clash with other PS3 titles like Killzone, Resistance, Uncharted, and Quantum.
-Lost Odyssey & Fable 2: Sure, a lil' late but sure why not? I think they wouldn't clash with the PS3 RPGs (Demon's Souls, WKC, DC Universe, The Agency) too much.
-Dead Rising: Possible since Dead Rising 2 is coming to the 3. And the Sony Community knows Capcom is our friend.
-Crackdown seems a lil too late.
What other games does M$ have that we want to play?...Not much that for sure.
@Ben (or Arnold or John)
I know you can't talk about that mystery game but can you at least tell us rather or not its a new IP or a sequel? And rather or not YOU (as a gamer) are excited about it?

By the way Word, unrelated to this post, I'm also glad I'm not the only one who thought the graphics on SC: Conviction looked weak. Also for what I saw it does not add much in the gameplay department either.
Now Allan Wake has me ready to upgrade my video card on my PC.

it wont be splinter cell conviction because 1 ubisoft have denied it a million times.
and 2 they said the engine is designed for the 360 from the top, so they would have to build a new engine for the ps3 copy.
if its a game already released for the 360 it may be prey.
it wont be L4D2 because its to close to release, valve have just started to look for coders by the time they find them and get started the game will be out.
mayb a port over next year but than they would have to do the first one first.
supposedly their looking for ps3 coders for a big new IP high budget so to make their cash back there exploring all platforms so i sincerely doubt L4D
hey mayb its L4D 1 but doubt it.
