PS3 News from N4G | Frontlines: Fuel of War
PS3 - Frontlines: Fuel of War - THQ Talks Drawn To Life Wii, Frontlines Cancellation In its conference call with investors to discuss THQ's holiday quarter sales, THQ president Brian Farrell has said that its 5th Cell developed DS platformer Drawn To Life is being prepped for a Wii release.

Asked to give some insight into the cancellation of the PlayStation 3 version of its forthcoming Frontlines, Farrell laughed that as other publishers have expressed, Unreal Engine 3 is "just not optimized for open world on PS3."

Work could have continued on the title, but it "would have been at least 60-90 days behind the lead SKUs," which THQ thought was "not good for branding, and not a good use for a talented team." The cancellation, he said was simply due to "the fact that the Unreal Engine didn't perform in an open world as we would have expected."

THQ has said that it won't be making any more games from the Stuntman or Juiced franchises, presumably because they're not bringing home the bacon. Within the company's recent financial update is word that THQ expects to record non-cash charges of approximately $27 million related to "the company's decision not to pursue its Juiced and Stuntman intellectual properties" as well as "the cancellation of the PlayStation 3 version of Frontlines: Fuel of War (and Destroy All Humans!: Big Willy ... » Read More

PS3 - Frontlines: Fuel of War - Frontlines becomes Xbox 360 console exclusive due to Unreal Engine? "THQ had the following to say about the issue, "In October, we announced certain product quality initiatives, including personnel and structural changes in product development and a more rigorous internal and external product evaluation and feedback process," said Brian Farrell, president and CEO of THQ. "Consistent with these initiatives, we have taken actions to strengthen our pipeline and position ourselves to compete aggressively with compelling, high quality games.""

"Mostly the engine we're using--Unreal Engine 3. One of the main things about it is that the PS3 came a year later than the Xbox 360, so that actually delayed us making a budget in a sense for what's possible on the PS3 versus the Xbox and PC. Also, the engine wasn't ready for a year later because the PS3 came out a year later. So [with] the Xbox and the PC platform we've found more solid a platform to develop on, but the engine is literally just finished for that platform and that's actually a long time. All the first games for the PS3 are coming out now for the PS3 on that engine."

PS3 News from N4G | Frontlines: Fuel of War
PS3 - Frontlines: Fuel of War - THQ stays quiet on Frontlines PS3 canned rumour Via Videogamer:

"THQ has refused to comment on Internet rumours suggesting the PS3 version of upcoming near-future FPS Frontlines: Fuel of War has been cancelled.

Over the weekend rumours that the PS3 version of the game had been canned emerged after forum posters at developer Kaos Studios revealed that some US retailers had removed the PS3 from its online listings.

In response Kaos Studio employees have posted in the forum, calling for patience and promising more info soon, saying: "Again, please do not overreact to rumours or, like with release dates, take what retailers say as truth. The timing of this was unfortunate as it was the weekend but there will be actual info shortly."

When contacted by VideoGamer.com today for clarification, publisher THQ served us with the standard "THQ does not comment on rumour or speculation".

While a lack of a firm and swift denial will do nothing to allay PS3-owners fears that the game, which is still on for a February 29 release on Xbox 360 and PC, has been canned on their system, it may simply be the case that the PS3 version of the game, which has never been given an official release date, needs some added polish to bring it up to scratch."

PS3 - Frontlines: Fuel of War - Frontlines dev denies FPS fatigue Videogamer writes:

"The art director on upcoming shooter Frontlines: Fuel of War has denied that gamers are currently suffering from FPS fatigue.

Luis Cataldi, art director at Frontlines developer Kaos Studios, believes the high number of critically acclaimed first-person shooter games that have come out in 2007, like Halo 3, Call of Duty 4 and BioShock, has instead "created more of an appetite".

Speaking at a hands-on even for Frontlines, which depicts a near future world where the West is fighting the East over the Earth's last reserves of oil, Cataldi told VideoGamer.com that while there is the "opportunity" for FPS fatigue to be true, the opposite is in fact happening."

PS3 - Frontlines: Fuel of War - Destroy All Humans, Frontlines delayed until 2008 THQ has regretfully announced today that three of their major titles will be pushed back in to 2008. Destroy all Humans: Path of the Furon for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Frontlines: Fuel of War for PS3, and de Blob for the Wii and DS were among the titles being delayed.

The low sales of Stuntman: Ignition and Juices 2: Hot Import Nights may have something to do with the new release dates.

PS3 - Frontlines: Fuel of War - This Is Your Brain On Video Games, Ads Developing a first-person shooter video game that can rival the genre's top-selling hits like Call of Duty is always a long shot.

So game maker THQ tried an unusual research method last year to evaluate people's early emotional response to its in-development shooter game Frontlines. Instead of asking a test group how it liked the game, as with most market research, the company hired technology specialist EmSense to measure people's brain waves, heart rate and sweat responses while they played the military-theme game. Armed with that data, THQ took Frontlines in a whole new direction developmentally, said Bob Aniello, chief marketing officer at THQ.
