Sony, PSM deny Sly Cooper rumor

Late last month, rumors of Sly Cooper moving on to the next gen arena graced QJ.NET. Understandably, this excited a lot of Sly Cooper fans, especially since the rumor also mentioned that the titles would be officially revealed at this year's E3. The bad news is that apparently the whole thing isn't true.

According to IGN, both Sony and the U.S. branch of PlayStation Magazine (PSM) have dismissed the rumor as false. The rumor started out as a forum post on GameFAQs that allegedly had snippets off a Sucker Punch interview in PSM. IGN contacted PSM editor-in-chief Rob Smith about the rumor, but Smith said that no such interview appeared on PSM.

Sony Computer Entertainment PR manager Jennifer Clark, meanwhile, added that "there have been no announcements made in regards to future Sly Cooper products and there are no plans for the franchise to appear at this year's E3. Any information that has recently been reported is pure rumor and speculation."

Sucker Punch has not yet commented on the issue, but it has been confirmed that the company is working on at least one project for next gen consoles.

This morning (23May07), Ubisoft revealed that the PS3 is now the "lead platform" for Free Radical's forthcoming shooter, Haze. Originally set for a release on the Xbox 360, PC, and PS3 this spring, the game will now debut solely on the PS3 this fall.

In fact, the fact sheet provided by Ubisoft no longer lists the PC or Xbox 360 versions of the game, prompting some speculation that it may become PS3-exclusive. The UK Haze site for the game also only bears the PS3 logo...

Go here

http://hazegame.us.ubi.com/index.php

Scroll to the bottom of the website and look for yourself. No other logos or trademarks for any other console but PS3.

If you go to Free Radical's website (www.frd.co.uk), it clearly still says ps3, xbox 360, and pc.

Haze could be the true Halo rival on PS3! I can't wait to see the results!

One, why the hell does almost every comment on these articles nowadays have pretty much nothing at all to do with the article? It's seriously annoying. Go away people. No one likes you.

Two, I freaking love the Sly Cooper games, and if they don't get one next gen, or even better, on the PSP, I will be very disappointed. There really aren't enough great games for the PSP yet, just a few pretty good ones. We'll probably see all the best ones come out in a few years, just before they release the PSP 2. Isn't that how it always feels?
