*UPDATE* Are the Saints (Row) rolling into PS3s?

If game rumors can go one way (e.g., Metal Gear Solid 4), then turnabout in the other direction is only fair. Attention EBGames shoppers! New in the Preorder aisle, shipping on 5/15/07, and for the standard MSRP of US$ 59.99…

The Saints are taking over new territory now.

There’s still no word from THQ about this matter except for the generic “No comment” when 1UP contacted them, but come to think of it, this writer can’t even recall THQ saying that Saints Row would be an exclusive to one console, either… Hence, the Rumor bin. Sure, it is a rumor. THQ might say something else, and EBGames will simply and quietly pull the page with nary a word of apology, but still, it does point to what everyone argues is a multiplatform world – and it is, well, refreshing to see the flow of games go in the other direction, too.


UPDATE: That was fast. Almost as fast as a heist in Stilwater. The EBGames URL where the listing for the PS3 version of Saint’s Row no longer works. Quietly pulled the page with nary a word of apology, just as predicted. THQ hasn’t said anything else, though, so this rumor could still go either way. Either that or there’s supposed to be an embargo on this news until THQ says it’s time for everyone to break out the news.
