Thanks to GamerFeed for their confirmation that a Playstation 2 GITS: SAC game is in the works. It will be released in November to coincide with the series premiere on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.

    Ooh, I've been waiting for that one, even though I'm expecting the same demo from E3 on that as well (which I can't complain about, as there was a decent amount of stuff to fool around with).

    Has that hit newsstands yet?

    In the article there was a link to the official game website:

    http://www.ghostintheshell-thegame.com/

    The site has a slick but overproduced flash presentation of the game that includes gameplay clips. Essentially it appears to be a 3D platformer with plenty of running, jumping, shooting, and hand-to-hand combat. Throw in some slo-mo Matrix style camera action for good measure too.

    As with all games of this type, it may *look* cool (and it does), but the control scheme is everything. Until it's actually released and we can get some hands on reviews, it's impossible to say whether this will be worth buying...
