It also sounds like there will be a number of non-Sony titles on display, such as Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11, Resident Evil 5: Alternative Edition, Virtua Tennis 4, Tales of Graces F, Red Dead Redemption, God Eater Burst, Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, The 3rd Birthday, and countless other games previously announced for the show by third-party publishers. Last by not least, two unannounced titles – one for PS3 and one for PSP – were not included on the list.

One thing, which just happened, was PS3Key has notified us (via their mailing list) that their website has now been updated. They announced their retail price point at $49. They have also added a list of features of PS3Key (strikingly similar to psgroove and psjailbreak of course). Complete list of features include:

* USB Plug and Play solution that installs in seconds without any need to open up the PS3.
* Does not break your warranty seal.
* Compatible with all PS3 models, both Fat and Slim.
* Supports all regions: USA, JAP, PAL and KOREA.
* USB device fully updatable by PC.
* Disables forced software updates and will never brick your console.
* Supports most games and homebrew applications.
* Easy-to-use software for backing up, managing, and playing games from external USB Hard Drive.
* Playing games from HDD is much more enjoyable, benefiting from greatly enhanced seek and loading times.
* Supports installing homebrew application on PS3 and external USB media.
* Optionally PS3Key can be supplied with an “open” firmware which does not support backup loading. Users would then have to download a firmware update for PS3Key to get full functionality.

Love it or hate it, multiplayer is coming to Batman: Arkham City. Confirmed in this months issue of the popular UK magazine PSM3, they have proceeded in claiming that "Multiplayer is a certainty, but no details yet". This comes after a rush of rumors and discussion that Catwoman will feature as a playable co-op character and with no mention of Robin or Nightwing this is looking even more credible. Keep in mind that no details have been confirmed and we aren't 100% ruling out the possibility of VS multiplayer.

This wont be Rocksteady's first attempt at multiplayer. Their Playstation 2 frantic fps shooter Urban Chaos: Riot Response also featured net play of 8 players. There is no doubt that we will be seeing a lot more info on this feature soon.

Rockstar Games recently revealed the next downloadable content (DLC) pack set to be made available for the hugely successful Red Dead Redemption, set to arrive late next month. Following the recent releases of the Outlaws to the End Co-Op Mission Pack and the Legends and Killers Pack, Rockstar Games will continue to expand Red Dead Redemption this month with the release of the Liars and Cheats Pack.

The Liars and Cheats Pack will contain a great range of new highly-requested features to expand the free-roaming world of Red Dead Redemption, including Multiplayer Poker and Liar’s Dice, as well as a brand new Competitive Multiplayer gameplay mode. The Liars and Cheats Pack will also include the content previously announced as the Free Roam Pack. The Free Roam Pack was originally planned as a free download, but due to the platform networks’ restrictions on numbers of free packs Rockstar Games can give away, the developer has taken the decision to amalgamate to the two packs, instead adding the content to the Liars and Cheats Pack as one release.

Boasting the following features and more, the Liars and Cheats Pack: will be available later this month:

Multiplayer Poker and Liar's Dice Games
One of the most fan-requested features comes to multiplayer.

Multiplayer Horse Races
Ride out against your friends and foes online - with mounted combat guns blazing.

The Explosive Rifle
A devastatingly destructive new weapon with its own new single-player and multiplayer challenges.

7 New Gang Hideouts
Posse up and take on the new Hideouts together to level up quickly.

4 New Hunting Grounds
New Hunting Grounds are now visible on the map for all to see, with some of the most action-packed wildlife hunting yet.

Stronghold Competitive Multiplayer Mode
Teams take turns in attack and defence in multi-tiered Competitive games.

Posse Scoring and Leaderboards. Compare stats with other posses and compete to see who are the kings of the Free Roam frontier.

Plus, 15 additional multiplayer characters from the Red Dead Redemption storyline are being made available as multiplayer characters, and more all-new Achievements and Trophies.

The Liars and Cheaters Pack DLC for Red Dead Redemption is set to be available from September 21st 2010, on both Xbox LIVE Marketplace and PlayStation Network, priced at 800 Microsoft Points and $9.99 USD respectively. Electronic Theatre will keep you updated with all the latest details on the DLC packs made available for Red Dead Redemption.

* Amazon.com: Three outfits for Randy Orton (T-shirt, suit and referee uniform)
* Walmart: "Tribute to the Troops" arena

WWE SmackDown Vs. RAW will be out for all systems (including PS2, though the first two bonuses are only available for Xbox 360 or PS3) on October 26.

10. Agent – Rockstar North

When GTA was released Rockstar had said that they were restricted with how much content to include in GTAIV because of the Xbox 360. So Agent is like PS3’s GTA. We’re always looking forward to shooting up some hoes after the deed is committed. So Agent is a PS3 exclusive to keep a watch on. Agent earns itself a position at number 10 after ridding the world of some whores.

9. Dead Space 2 – EA Redwood Shores

The previous game was one of the top survival horror games to be released this generation. With the sequel confirmed to be released in April 2011. The game seems to take place in a city rather than on just a ship this time around. The developers also have confirmed that the game will have new weapons and much better death scenes. They’ve also confirmed that Isaac’s armor will all look completely different, unlike the previous game where more metal plates where placed on each armor and only the last one being completely different. The developer still hasn’t confirmed if coop will be included in this game as of yet. Hopefully the final boss battle would be more epic and not only will it be slamming its tentacles down and you just strafe left and right to dodge them. Also hopefully we don’t have to fight a vagina again but maybe a penis? Only time will tell. Isaac plasma blasts 9th place.

8. Fallout: New Vegas – Obsidian

If you were a fan of Fallout 3 you will most likely already know this game has been in development for quite a while now. Ever wanted to gamble in Fallout 3? Well now you can, with the developer promising the choices you make will have a heftier price to pay and new gameplay features. This is definitely an RPG to look out for. The game takes place 3 years after the events of Fallout 3. So there could be some similarities in the story. The game is still set in post-apocalyptic times where nearly everything is pretty much destroyed and what you see is just the aftermath. Also the famous radio stations should be back in this one, so I don’t want to set the world on fire, I just want to set a flame in 8th place.

7. Resistance 3 – Insomniac

Resistance 3 at this year’s Gamescom fights its way to 7th place. Insomniac has learnt from its past mistakes and we all know the list of online modes we had with Resistance 2. What could Insomniac bring new to the table that will shine and overshadow the many shooters out there? Hopefully more will be shown other than a teaser come the Tokyo Game Show this September.

6. Final Fantasy Versus XIII – Square Enix

If you are a PS3 owner and was let down by FFXIII, then you still have hope to feed your RPG hunger once this game is released. With the Kingdom Hearts team working on this , it really looks promising. Also this game won’t be downgraded to fit the 360’s capabilities as it’s a PS3 exclusive. So this game will pretty much prove how FFXIII should have looked or how much the game could have offered at the end of the day. Yet till this day, not even one gameplay video is yet to be seen.

5. LittleBigPlanet 2 – Media Molecule

A very innovative game is about to get a sequel and MM is promising more features such as the player won’t just be restricted to creating only platformer levels, but now can create shooters, role play, adventure and other genres in gaming. With that said, think about all the possibilities that can be created in LBP2! Also all downloadable content from the previous game will be transferred to the new one. What is even better is that this game is slated for a 2010 release. Hopefully slapping people can be more brutal this time round. Sackboy creates his way to the 5th spot.

4. Gran Turismo 5 – Polyphony Digital

The 5th edition to the highly acclaimed racing simulator, Gran Turismo 5. Now this game sells in millions of copies around the word. It’s one of the most realistic and enjoyable racing simulators out there. With a make up over do, the cars and tracks look more realistic than ever! Also we have a game with over 1000 vehicles and a game that has been highly anticipated from the day it was announced. The wait will be over this year, November. You can bet Sony to announce a PS3 bundle with Gran Turismo 5. This title is sure to make Sony big buck buck bucks! This game reaches the finish line at 4th place.

3. Infamous 2 – Sucker Punch

Cole is back and not only with electricity, but with also ice powers….groovy. Not much really has been confirmed on the game other than the game itself of course. Cole was redesigned by Sucker Punch to a more younger looking Cole, why Sucker Punch, why? The voice actor has been changed. Why Sucker Punch, why? Yet from the amount of complaints Sucker Punch was punched at, they have returned everything back to normal, other than the voice actor. Bald Cole is back. Why Sucker Punch, why? (just kidding).

2. The Last Guardian – Team Ico

If you were ever a fan of the classic Ico or Shadow of The Colossus you will know what to expect from Team Ico. A game that’s innovative and something that a game, no other has done before it. From what we’ve seen in the trailers, you get to either control a little boy that takes care of a large god knows what sort of species it is or the god knows what species it is takes care of you. Not much in terms of gameplay features have been revealed for this game as of yet, but you should definitely expect this title to be at the Tokyo Game show as it was nowhere in sight this E3. The Last Guardian nabs 2nd place.

1. Killzone 3 – Guerrilla Games

“But if there are those who deny us peace, refuse us our rightful place in the universe, then we will unleash such terrible vengeance that generations yet unborn….cry out in anguish.” Good old Visari, too bad he won’t be back but Killzone 3 will be. Killzone 3 is already shaping up to be best looking FPS out there. New features such as the jet pack have been confirmed and developer Guerilla have showcased the game in a variety of different environments rather than the overused grey & dark environment. Plus if you’re a rich fellow, you can play this game in 3D! The Helghan empire VEKTAPEDIA take over No.1
