Timeshift confirmed for PS3 with screens

Sony PlayStation 3 fans have another reason to smile as Sierra Entertainment and Valve are at it again. The makers of the legendary Half-life franchise that changed the way we think about games have decided to push for another huge innovation with Timeshift, a shooter that lets you play with time. The game was originally announced for the PC and the Microsoft Xbox 360 but now the developers have cemented the fact that Timeshift will also be in the PS3.

Using the fourth dimension as the centerpiece of the game’s unique concepts, Sierra intends to create a psychological shooter where players must devise smart and brutal ways to make the seemingly impossible possible by slowing down, freezing or rewinding the timeline itself.

But wait, if we rewind time and go back to the past to kill the guy who was going to kill us, then nobody will be there in the present to kill us, therefore, we won’t have a reason to go to the past to kill that guy. Weird. Let’s see how it all plays out.

Even more exciting is the fact that we can all bring our time manipulation abilities online and use them on other people. In fact, up to 16 time-travelers can battle it out across 14 multiplayer maps with 60 options to tweak the gameplay to optimum levels.

Even the weapons here are not anything you’ve ever seen before. Assault rifles, sniper rifles and pistols all have twisted derivatives to put some huge chronological pain on anyone who gets in your way. Suit up and don’t forget the ammo. You’ll be spending a lot of time with this mind-boggler.
