With flesh-tearing and blood-splattering action, what PS3 owner is not looking forward to a game of this caliber? Everyone has been feasting for more info and gameplay and Sony Santa Monica has done just that. They revealed their new trailer for God of War III named, Chaos Will Rise, on GameTrailers TV just last night which instantly made PS3 owners around the nation drool to the floor.

In this episode, Shamarri Miller makes his return to TheGamerAccess.com with Diz and Dave and we give a little sample of whats been in our consoles as of late, including Bioshock 2, MAG, and White Knight Chronicles. We discuss the backlash the PlayStation 3 has received in its lifetime, and whether things have changed and whether some of it was well deserved. We discuss issues concerning the multiplatform release of Final Fantasy XIII and some of the positive and negative responses it has gotten so far from the gaming public. Why doesn't the PS3 have backwards compatibility and how we feel about it. Our main topic almost turns into a Generation X vs. Triple Play debate as we talk about the integrity of the game reviewer side of the business and the possible bias that insists on the remaining inside of the gaming world. We also hear the thoughts from our special guest, Gmoney0505, as he makes an appearance. Please stay tuned every week as we will now try to get the podcast out every week again.

February 9th is the start of a wave of game releases that should run pretty solid all the way through until April. The key, or most mainstream, game releases set for tomorrow are Bioshock 2, Star Ocean: The Last Hope International, Dante's Inferno. Bioshock 2 and Dante's Inferno will be released cross platform and Star Ocean will see its first release onto the PS3. The 360 version of Star Ocean was released on February 24, 2009, almost a full year before the PS3 version. Which one of these games interests you more and which one(s) do you plan on picking up?
