PS3 Version of Red Alert 3 Back On

[Sonic 296]

Back in June of this year EALA announced that the Playstation 3 version of Red Alert 3 had been put on hold because Sony's console is "very exotic and tough to develop for". We asked for further comments about it at the Red Alert 3 Community Summit as well, once again we were given the no comment at this time routine. All of that has changed today as EALA producer and C&C TV presenter David Silverman confirmed that development is back on and there's "definitely people working" on it. Here's part of the story from VideoGamer.com.

 

However, producer and C&C TV presenter David Silverman confirmed to VideoGamer.com that development on the PS3 version of Red Alert 3 is back on and there's "definitely people working" on it.

 

He said: "When we announced Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 we announced there was a PS3 version, then we decided to go on the record and say that we've suspended it to make sure that RA3 was able to come out to the level of quality that it must adhere to to be called a C&C game. We've hit that mark, we've shipped the game. And you know what that means? That means there's another version left to be had. So there's definitely people working on a PS3 version and we'll be talking more about that later."

 

While Silverman wouldn't commit to a release date, he did say that PS3 owners will be "very pleased" if they bide their time.

 

"If you're a PS3 owner and you don't own a PC and you don't have an Xbox 360 you don't have to write on your Christmas or Hanukkah list that you want to have an Xbox," he said. "You can play Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, bide your time and you'll be very pleased. We're looking at doing some really cool things with the PS3 version. Since it is shipping later we're putting in a lot of cool content and really taking advantage of both the 1080p nature and the high-defness of Blu-Ray and also the fact that it can hold just so much more space."
