PS3 News from N4G | Final Fantasy XIII
PS3 - Final Fantasy XIII - Here comes Cloud So you thought that Square Enix turned their back on Sony in favor of the almighty dollar by making FFXIII multi-platform. Well, fans of the Final Fantasy series may have their prayers answered. FFVII might be making a return to the spotlight with either a remake or a spin-off (like that of Crisis Core). Fans have been begging for this ever since Sony unveiled a tech demo of FFVII at E3 2005. The original may also be making a return by being distributed through PSN and XBLA. These rumors have gained some steam by Square Enix's Shinji Hashimoto saying, "You can look forward to the upcoming invite-only fan event DKS3713 , where we'll have a major announcement that will shock the fans in attendance." The Square Enix DKS3713 Event will be taking place on August 2nd. So, mark the date and check back soon.

PS3 News from N4G | PixelJunk Eden - PS3 Network
PS3 - PixelJunk Eden - PS3 Network - Pixel junk Eden demo tommorrow Through proficient use of a telephone, and a little bit of luck Joystiq has found out that a demo of PixelJunk Eden will be available tomorrow on PSN. It is likely the demo will only be available on the US store as Sony Europe are still asleep in regards to all things online not planning to release the game in Europe any time soon.

Joystiq comment "We just got off the phone with Sony, trying to see if we could get more info on Fat Princess, and were told that the demo for PixelJunk Eden will be available tomorrow with the regular PSN update."

If you really want to play the demo you can always create a US account to download it when it appears. However, this account won't be much good if you want to buy the full game when it releases next week (July 31st).

PS3 News from N4G | Aliens: Colonial Marines
PS3 - Aliens: Colonial Marines - Aliens Game Being Written By Battlestar Galactica Team "This is no joke," said Gearbox president Randy Pitchford, and I had to agree. The more we hear about Aliens: Colonial Marines (PC, 360, PS3), the more exciting it sounds for fans of the original films.

Gearbox seems dedicated to staying faithful to the source material, and smartly expanding on it with a solid creative team. Four player co-op doesn't hurt, either.

During the interview, Pitchford explained the lengths that his company went to in order to make their game feel like an authentic piece of the Aliens franchise.

Randy Pitchford: One thing that's cool is some of the people we've been able to work with to help us [on Aliens]. The guys that write the Battlestar Galactica series, Bradley Thompson and David Weddle, they wrote our script. They're amazing guys. They gave us a lot, too. We could make a whole season of TV with the stuff they gave us. [laughs] We profited from the writer's strike, let's just put it that way. We talked with a lot of people, but those guys are so good.
