Limbo for PlayStation 3 spotted News • News • PlayStation 3 • Eurogamer.net

News PlayStation 3

Korean Rating Board spills beans.

Enchanting monochrome puzzle platformer Limbo looks set for launch on the PlayStation 3.

As spotted by GameSetWatch, the Korean Rating Board lists Limbo under Sony Computer Entertainment Korea's submission.

Limbo launched last year exclusively on Xbox Live Arcade to rave reviews.

Eurogamer's 9/10 Limbo review discussed "a game that has very few humans, but a surplus of humanity".

Danish developer Playdead said in October last year that Limbo was an Xbox exclusive because the studio "used a lot of time and a lot of money" creating the game and it hoped it would help "get the money back".

If true this is excellent news.

I was really envious of my Xbox owning brethren when this came out.

Day one purchase for sure!!

Hmm, this got to stop, to many good games coming out, I need to stop buying games and just play them for a long while until I actually have completed the games I already have

Loved this game on Xbox, glad PS3 owners will also be able to play. Good luck to PlayDead, the developer, hope they sell many copies.

Now ... get on with the next one!

Im really looking forward to this. Quick question to those that have played it: Is that huge spider in the game much? Iv pretty bad arachnophobia and what iv seen has seriously freaked me out

Yes guillotine, Super Stardust HD is so much cheaper on XBLA, and I hear Flower is both cheaper and works better without the motion controls. Wipeout HD is also far better on XBLA... Oh... Wait...

Anyway, I really should stop feeding the trolls, and simply say 'yay!' because I really wanted to play this but I didn't replace my 360 after the last time it died. It's the only game I've envied on the 360 in the last 12 months so I'm very happy to hear the PS3 will be getting it too.

Excellent! This was one of only 4 titles I'd consider buying an Xbox for; glad to hear I'll get a chance to play that masterpiece.

Also, @ guillotine: do you do nothing but troll Sony/PS3 articles on here? I've only been on eurogamer for a week or two, and I've already seen so many of your comments just filled with idiotic fanboy gibberish.

Excellent news for PS3 owners who haven't played it. Maybe they'll pop some Move support in, then I'd definitely buy it again!

"Flower is wank." surprisingly I was playing this for the first time lastnight and it's actually quite good. Any game that holds my other half attention for more than 10mins is a true achievement in my books.

@Markitron - as I remember, the spider is in it for one main section. That bit is pretty 'icky' anyway, but if you've got arachnophobia you might want to let someone else get past that bit for you!

Quite possibly my favourite game of last year. Absolutely loved the whole thing, and the more exposure it gets the better.

Excellent game, one of the first I got for my 360. Almost as good as Flower.

Please be true! I always cast an envious eye over in Microsoft's direction over this, so if it comes to PS3 it'll be a day 1 purchase.

I bought and mostly enjoyed this game, a few irritations, but overall enjoyable. However I waited and got it for 600 points during the 50% off sale, and feel that it wasn�t really worth 1200. 800 would have the correct price to release it at.

"Gibber gibber gibber wakka wakka wakka pupupup"

- Next time you comment, just copy-paste the line typed above. It'll probably make more sense than the tripe you posted.

great news! (holds thumbs) It honestly seems like XBLA and PSN is the real crucible for innovative and charming games.

Why won't my ignore button work on guillotine? IGNORE! IGNORE!

Awesome news, I only ever got to play the trial on my 360 before it died, have been waiting for the chance to play the full game since!

Hopefully it means more capital for Playdead, meaning more games.

Yeah, it won't work on me either. And it decides when it wants to work with coolbritannia as well. I wonder if Guillotine and coolbritannia are the same person? Both spout anti-Sony crap everywhere they look, and both are wankers.

As a 360 owner, I can technically get this but I have next to no hard-drive space. So to hear rumours of a PS3 release is incredibly comforting.

Now, when is Machinarium out? Because that looks just as good.

guillotine: you did NOT just call Flower wank. And good luck in finding Wipeout HD on 360.

Great great game and good to see the love shared

As for comments on Flower....tis a truly unique and beautiful gaming experience ....far from "wank"

Why not just play machinarium on a pc, much better with a mouse.
