Quick update on The Wheelman (PS3, Xbox 360, PC): reports have come in saying the game has slipped from its planned February 16 launch date.

Instead, the action title will come out a couple of weeks later on March 20. To make amends of a sort, Midway will be releasing a demo on Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network prior to the game's release.

Since The Wheelman is supposed to serve as a prequel to the movie of the same name, it's pretty possible that the movie's release will be affected as well. Midway didn't say anything about the movie's release though. In the meantime, check out the new Wheelman screens below.

and didn't like it. The cars were hard to control, and every small hit was so amplified (overactive physics engine!). Also, this may have just been the demo, but the graphics were not that good. The ground looked like something from a ps2 game.

The PURE demo, on the other hand, excelled in almost every way!

The only reason I even gave this title a second glance was because it's got Vin Diesel. I dig just about anything he's in.

# u got my 3 fav games — death 2009-01-20 17:03

the rest of my favs for ps3 are

resistance 1

resistance 2 (play them in order {R2's online is better than COD4 [imo]])

time crisis 4 ( worth a rent if anything, theres a lot of replay ability in it tho {i play it all the time, especially the FPS part)

Ratchet and Clank (i haven't played the DLC one yet but i bet its awesome)

and a multiplat i've been playing alot (mind the bugs)
