Sony Launches E3 Site, Inadvertently Teases Titles

Thanks to EvilAvatar for its article discussing the recent launching of Sony's E3 site, showcasing "a few select [PlayStation 2] titles" that'll be displayed at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles next month, including Champions 2: Return To Arms, the Snowblind-developed Champions Of Norrath sequel. However, if you "start fiddling with the numbers at the end of the URL" on the official site, you can see very basic, unlinked-to info on other games that'll be publicly shown by Sony at E3, including the unannounced action title Rise Of The Kisai from Bottle Rocket/Sony, Dark Cloud 3 from Sony, Final Fantasy XII from Square Enix, Destroy All Humans! from Pandemic/THQ, and, interestingly, Cold Fear from Namco, a survival horror (?) title (related to the thought-lost U.S.S. Antarctica?) rumored in development at Alone In The Dark IV developers Darkworks. Update: 04/26 18:30 GMT by S : The entire site, even the previously public titles, are now password-protected and private.

    that Destroy All Humans! is some kind of remake of Zombies Ate My Neighbors. Just thinking about it makes me want to go out and buy a snes.

    I have little to say, but even less to lose by saying it.

    Ahh...it wouldn't be E3 without the requisite website cock-up. To bad we didn't get too much new information or anything, but it is good to know that Dark Cloud is getting another sequel (It's a great game...didn't play it? Shame on you!) and everything. And we got another picture from FFXII (is that a new character? I haven't seen a picture of anybody but Ashe and Vaan...) so that's cool. But I am interested in that game from Bottle Rocket. It sounds...interesting.
