For potential PS3 owners looking to purchase Rock Band stand alone.

"Two weeks ago, Harmonix created a software patch for the Sony PLAYSTATION 3 version of Rock Band that allowed for guitar compatibility and support for third party peripherals, including enabling use of Activision's Guitar Hero III controller with Rock Band," the company told Shacknews.

"Unfortunately, Activision objected to the release of the compatibility patch," the statement continues. "The patch remains with Sony, but we have been told that it will unfortunately not be released due to Activision's continued objection."

I don't know how accurate this is, but I generally trust RPGFan w/ info. Article says that Star Ocean 4 has been confirmed for the PS3/360, and is being developed as a three part series.

It's from this week's Famitsu so I imagine it's pretty reliable.

Turns out that the majority of the info released that was supposedly from Famitsu that week turned out to be fake. Some kid on the NeoGAF forums decided to spark up some controversy.

Here is a link to the real scores and articles.

So the Burnout Paradise demo is up. Obviously I cannot play it myself yet (I should be back ~around the first of the year), but I want to hear some impressions .

Every game journalist is talking about this game like the second coming, so lets hear it! :windy:

[Deejay]

[Exoduso]

So SO isn't coming to the 360?

Unless things changed they already said in Nov its exclusive, but things can change so no one is sure. But according to the interview with the makers of the game in Nov. its PS3 exclusive.
