Console Wars: The Movie?

What is Sony Pictures up to? Do they have some kind of Console War movie in the works?

Fusible noticed that Sony Pictures Entertainment has registered a bunch of domain names that indicate there is a mysterious "Console War" project happening. Those urls (which lead nowhere right now) include ConsoleWarmovie.com and TheConsoleWarmovie.com, among others.

As the site points out, this could be related to something other than a film or DVD -- perhaps some kind of marketing for the upcoming PlayStation 4. But again, since the domains were registered by the company's film division, that seems less likely.

We've reached out to Sony for comment and will update this story if we hear back.

Deadly Premonition 2 in the Works?

Japanese game director SWERY has hinted that a sequel to Dead Premonition could be in the works. He also expressed interest in releasing a Director's Cut of the first game.

In a interview given to Eurogamer, SWERY said his team is working on a new project that will be released to coincide with the 10th anniversary of Access Games, the developer responsible for Deadly Premonition and Lord of Arcana.

SWERY said with regards to the new project: “We’re in talks with publishers at the moment, and we can’t tell you about the platforms. But by next summer, I think everyone will have a good idea of what it’s going to be.”

When pressed if the new title was a sequel to cult favourite Deadly Premonition, SWERY responded, “Hmm. Maybe.”

Although he never outs the new game as Deadly Premonition 2 explicitly, he went on to say:

"In Deadly Premonition I really tried to focus on lifestyle and the relationships between the characters and experiencing those things in the game, and there just happened to be a murder mystery going on as well. But what I really wanted people to experience was those day to day things. In the new game that's going to be important as well. Plus some extra things I wasn't able to do before, and new original elements like the coffee fortune telling.

“

I suggested Deadly Premonition 2 should be as though Deadly Premonition 1 had never existed.

"I meet once a month with the producer of Deadly Premonition and we talk about various things. There are things I've come up with the producer has said no to. I suggested Deadly Premonition 2 should be as though Deadly Premonition 1 had never existed. I wanted to do everything from scratch, but the producer said I couldn't do that.

"So, for example, like with Spider-Man, you've got Spider-Man and the Amazing Spider-Man, so the same series but a different world. I wanted to do something like that but was told no. The producer said the fans love York, and so I have to carry on with him as the protagonist."

SWERY also talked about the Director's Cut he is planning for the studio's approaching 10th anniversary. "We're working on the Director's Cut of Deadly Premonition," he said. "I am writing some new script and scenarios. Whether those will be used or not, and how they'll be used, isn't decided yet." A publisher has yet to be secured for Director's Cut, with SWERY currently in discussions.

Report: God of War Saga Coming to PS3

A retail source close to Siliconera has claimed that something called the God of War: Saga Collection is in the works. There's already been a God of War Collection (containing the first two games in the series) and a God of War Collection: Volume 2 (collecting PSP titles Chains of Olympus and Ghosts of Sparta). So is this perhaps a bundle of both collections, with possibly God of War III thrown in?

Well, it's all speculation at this point. But with God of War: Ascension slated for release on March 12, 2013, it would make sense for Sony to release the entire collection as a refresher for newcomers to the series.

According to the source the Saga Collection will be released sometime late in August. Can we expect an announcement at this year's Gamescom? Stay tuned to IGN for updates.

Thanos: Son of Titan Canceled

After his appearance in The Avengers and with the reveal of Guardians of the Galaxy being the next Marvel film in the works, Thanos has made an aggressive resurgence in the pages of Marvel Comics. In fact, just earlier this month Marvel made a big to-do about a new series called Thanos: Son of Titan, a five-issue mini-series by Joe Keatinge and Rich Elson that was set to explore the character's origin. I say "was," because as revealed in a Marvel retailer update, the series has been scrapped.

Appearing in this month's Previews catalogue, the Marvel Mailer update to comic shops read, "*THANOS SON OF TITAN #1 (OF 5) & VAR (AUG120580-1, $2.99, FOC 09/24/12) has been canceled." Sometimes this happens and the book is simply resolicited for a later date, but that isn't the case here.

I reached out to Marvel and they confirmed the cancellation but declined to comment further. It's strange to be sure, as this was a series Marvel pushed pretty hard, including a debut in USA Today and lots of buzz at Comic-Con a few weeks ago.
