Over on the official PlayStation blog, Michael Shorrock, Director of PR at SCEA, announced that Rockstar Games will be developing a new game franchise just for the PlayStation 3. Looks like this is the response back to Rockstar since Sony skimped on the exclusive content deal with GTA IV.
Not much else about the game itself was revealed in the post, but Shorrock hinted that the game will definitely push the PS3 to its limits, "Rockstar really wanted to make a game that you can truly only do on PS3, harnessing the power of the CELL and Blu-ray disc and this deal lets them to just that."
Note that this game is not the already-revealed PS3 exclusive, detective/action 1940’s game LA Noire. More details about the game and the title will come at a future date, so stick with GamerNode for that information.
