Rumor: Aquanaut's Holiday remake coming to PS3?

by Nick Doerr { Jun 23rd 2008 at 8:45PM }

Artdink was a developer way back with the original PlayStation who gave a lot of support to Sony. Their games were a little strange but were lauded by critics back in the day. However, they fell into obscurity due to their lack of "mainstream 'tude" or whatever PR spin you care to put on it.

Anyway, Sony might be publishing a remake of one of Artdink's games called Aquanaut's Holiday, a first-person ocean exploration title. Or releasing the game in some other fashion. Regardless, Play-Asia has the game listed as a PS3 title coming out September 25, 2009. Only time will tell.

This is probably the Artdink 'AQUA' game SCEI released a trailer for last year at TGS:

This may help bring more casual users to the PS3. The Wii also have an underwater exploration type game coming soon right? Endless Ocean / Forever Blue. The PS3 should look much nicer, with fish looking more like their real-world counterparts.

Uhh, if we're talking Artdink: how about a PS3 Tail of the Sun remake? Any takers? Methinks its got bit more gameplay potential than AH. Don't get me wrong because I DO like my tech-demo-esque non-games from time to time...I just don't like paying for them.
