Go back in time
Sony announced that Sackboy's Prehistoric Moves was going to get an early launch for PlayStation Plus subscribers, and true enough the game appeared on the PlayStation Store last night for members of Sony's premium club to download for free.
Disney Epic Mickey on Wii is raking in some pretty positive reviews around the world but, despite Warren Spector's insistence that it was made for Wii, Michael Pachter is in no doubt it'll appear on PlayStation 3 in the fullness of time.
It will ultimately come there. Maybe they’ll do it as a Playstation Network game for a lot less money but they’ll have to wait a few years until the Wii version runs its course to get away with lower graphics.So far we haven't seen many Wii games make the jump across to PlayStation Move, but Disney Epic Mickey would certainly be a strong candidate and a welcome addition to Move's catalogue.

It's like going from driving a car to driving a plane... once we as designers have had time to play around with it, then whole new genres of games will come from that.Molyneux's Milo and Kate was supposed to be one such title, but confusion reigns over whether or not it will ever see the light of day.
RT @nicalis: Three days until @cavestory is available in Europe! Thanks to everyone for being so patient. We really hope you like the game.
