LuminesTetsuya Mizuguchi in an interview with Game Informer stated that Q Entertainment is considering the PS3 as the next possible platform for the popular Lumines game. Four all-new versions of the game have already been shown at last month's E3, and now, it seems that another one is coming  to the next-gen console.

Mizuguchi said that they are considering a PS3 version of Lumines not only "from a visual standpoint but sound." This is because creators of the game are already planning a 7.1 aside from the 5.1 surround sound they have planned with Lumines Live for Microsoft's console.

Q Entertainment would also want to bring the game to other platforms to let people know that Lumines is not just a puzzle game anymore, especially when creators plan to add new experiences with every installment and version of the game.

Mizuguchi also talked about the price of the forthcoming Lumines Live game. They're still thinking about whether the versus mode should be purchased separately from the base package or if it they can already include versus mode with the base package.

We'll keep you posted with the latest news about Lumines Live and the possible Lumines game for the PS3.

WOW!

It sounds cool, but what base package are they talking about? Whatever that means, every game should include its versus and not be sold seperatley. 7.1 on PS3? I wonder if all games would include it even though those speakers are not out yet, still they should add it just in case.
