PS3 service goes after Xbox Live Arcade

With a keen eye, IGN noticed a job offering floating around the internet that is described as looking for a "a superstar engineer with a strong graphics background to develop an unannounced downloadable title for the PlayStation 3 launch in November."So we all know that Sony's PlayStation Network Platform wants to compete head-on with Microsoft's service, but this gives even more fuel to the fire in their effort to tackle Xbox Live Arcade with downloadable games as well. That Game Company posted the call for programmers, and it turns out they want to bring the trippy web game flOw (that's free) to the next-gen console. This begs the question: What other downloadable games are being cooked up for the PS3 service? Guess we won't know until November.

Good luck sony.
I don't think sony's service has a prayer against Xbox Live. We (Gamers) know what to expect from Xbox Live and have been very pleased with the improvements Microsoft has made over the last 4 years. If Sony thinks they can come out with as good or better they are insane. Socom online sucked. With that out, Sony had better come through on one promise. They have already let me down on power, grafics, and BluRay.
