Wondering whatever happened to Koei's promise that Fatal Inertia EX will be coming exclusively to the PlayStation Store? Wonder no more as they have now issued a press release confirming the release date of the said title. More information follows after the jump.

After a quiet gaming release week, we're going to have a jolly good time decapitating enemies and chopping off limbs in the release of Team Ninja's Ninja Gaiden 2. Some of you golfers might want to take a swing at the handheld Hot Shots 2 for the PSP, while adventure fans will also have a jolly great time smashing enemies up in The Incredible Hulk (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS, PSP) or make their own platform hero in Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS, PSP, PC). Check out the entire list in the full article.

Koei's got some big news for the folks out there who've been patiently waiting for Fatal Inertia to come out on the PS3. We've received word that the game's coming out next month, along with some surprises, such as a longer name and a PlayStation Network-specific release. Learn more after the jump!

Good things come to those who wait. And for the PlayStation 3 owners, this means that their copy of Fatal Inertia stands to be a better game then its predecessors on the Xbox 360. This was one of several points noted by a Koei spokesman earlier. You can catch up on the rest of the details in the full article.

Still wondering when Fatal Inertia makes its way to the PlayStation 3 (also on the Xbox 360)? While Koei hasn't given any specific dates, they did hint at a more precise time period within next year. More details on their statement are in the full article.

During an interview, the big guys from Koei confirmed Fatal Inertia for the Sony PlayStation 3 (previously moved to Microsoft Xbox 360) and its 2008 release. While PS3 owners look forward to some futuristic hovercraft racing action, Koei fans can count on more Dynasty Warriors hack-and-slash goodness for years to come.

Speaking of Fatal Inertia, Koei's managing executive officer and deputy general manager Takazumi Tomoike mentioned how the game is almost entirely Canadian-made. Koei Canada is a young studio with only six or seven Japanese people, he continued. Only around 20 people are working on the game's development, and they're all young people who are still learning how to build a game through this sci-fi racer.

The discussion soon touched the issue of western developers being more advanced than those in Japan. When talking about development of multiplatform games, Tomoike believes Japan is lagging behind because Japanese companies focus more on bringing out the maximum potential of specific platforms.

Another way Japan falls behind is in sharing technology within the company. Tomoike admitted that even Koei is not too efficient in sharing information among themselves, seen in how Dynasty Warriors games are different from Kessen titles. Other companies have it worse though, like one famous for losing the source code of their own RPG because they hid it from themselves too well.

Software division executive officer Akihiro Suzuki also shared some insights, like how installments in the long-running Dynasty Warriors series are similar yet different. We get the good 'ol hack-and-slash in the same "one man against a thousand" flavor from every DW game, as Suzuki puts it. Some complain, but it looks like we can expect more button-mashing action to come.

His reply when asked how long the series will last, Suzuki replied, "As long as [development studio] Omega Force wants to continue with it, I think it will continue." It goes without saying that most people simply don't see Omega Force growing tired of ancient Chinese guys going at it.

 

In the aftermath of Fatal Inertia's demo for the Xbox 360, a good number of people wondered if a PlayStation 3 demo was also dropping in. Gamingbits gives us the answer from Koei today.

"We do not have a Fatal Inertia PS3 demo scheduled to go out this week," reads a statement from an official Koei representative. This is contrary to a supposed Thursday demo launch that PS3 fanboy noted.

As it stands, Fatal Inertia's schedule for release on the Microsoft Xbox 360 is stable while its Sony PlayStation 3 development has been delayed indefinitely because of struggles with the console's Cell Processor.

We're sure some of you have downloaded and tried the Fatal Inertia demo on your Xbox 360s, but in case you haven't, we have a couple of gameplay videos for you.

Koei's Fatal Inertia is a futuristic racer that mixes insane speeds, hovercrafts, and a sort of midair demolition derby. In the videos, we see just that. We see a couple of ship choices from the videos - a big hulking one and a smooth and sleek looking model. Your ship of choice should depend of your racing style, like if you want to go and bash your opponents to smithereens, it would be best to take the big and hulking hovercraft (which looks like it has the hull integrity of a tank), right?

Anyway, check out the two Fatal Inertia trailers and tell us what you think. By the way, the PlayStation 3 version is still stamped with the dreaded "indefinite delay", but we're going to keep our hopes up anyway.

The second video awaits at the Full Article.

Buckle up and take a wild ride aboard a 23rd century hovercar with Fatal Inertia. The game's developers have been working hard on this prospect and it's shows in how these screens look right now.

Set in the far future where extreme vehicle combat sports are taking the world by storm, Fatal Inertia will show more than just fancy lighting and breakneck frame rates. The Unreal Engine 3 will be put to another test as physics play a key role in the mayhem. Terrain and environments are fully destructible, allowing players to use it along with some strategy to their advantage.

Fatal Inertia by Koei is one of the anticipated titles in the works for next-generation consoles. The game was originally penned as a Sony PlayStation 3 exclusive but was later announced for the Microsoft Xbox 360. The PS3 version was reported as being cancelled, however, official announcements suggest that the title is just under indefinite delay.
