“I loved the GoW 1 and 2 remakes, personally I think they were better than GoW3, and I’m also looking forward to playing the Team ICO titles. As for others I’m not sure. I think Beyond Good and Evil should not have been updated, as it’s only gone to show what rose-tinted glasses we had in the old days.” – Just Add Water boss Stewart Gilray, speaking to SI on HD remasters.

JAW recently released a HD version of Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath for PSN, and is continuing work on the series as a whole. BG&E HD released last year for PSN and XBLA.

Two great interviews for you this week. I went to Irvine recently to see StarCraft II, and was lucky enough to get some face-time with Chris Metzen, Blizzard’s lore boss. Despite being a proper rock star, the guy’s switched on beyond belief. Hear him talk story in games, WarCraft III, SCII and loads more in this week’s recording. Really don’t miss this.

Very special interview number two is Stewart Gilray from the UK’s Just Add Water. The firm’s working on Gravity Crash for PS3 and PSP at the moment, and given the recent PS3 price drop we thought talking to a first-party dev would be interesting. Turns out we were right. Who knew?

The rest of this week’s show is me, Steph and Nathan talking about PS3 Slim, the fact PS3 sales have rocketed and how long we think the upside will stay up. Some of the sound quality in there’s a little flaky: sorry about that.

Have a listen. Again, because of the two interviews, it’s quite long this week, so here are the stamps:

• 0-16.18 – Pat, Steph and Nathan and the PS3 price cut and Slim’s introduction.
• 16.18-30.18 – Blizzard’s Chris Metzen on StarCraft II’s plot and loads more.
• 31.08-45.34 – Just Add Water’s Stewart Gilray on Gravity Crash.

Just Add Water’s Stewart Gilray has posted a developer feature over on the EU PS Blog regarding Gravity Crash.

Describing the game as a “love letter to 80s classic shooter gaming”, Gilray as listed all of the different features you can expect from both the PS3 and PSP version of the game.

There’s also a video for each version posted along with screenshots of the original and current developmental look.

You should seriously have a look, because the game sounds wicked fun.

Just Add Water’s Stewart Gilray’s told 1UP that the UK dev’s got plenty more on its plate than the newly-announced Gravity Crash.

“Right now we have another three projects in the pipeline,” he said. “When the time is right, we will talk about them.”

Gravity Crash will release later this year for PS3 as a PSN exclusive.
