How about their thoughts on that big bow-up that happened when the international console owners blew up over the fact that the demo could first only run on NA PS3s?
And perhaps ask why EU has a delay of the Uncharted demo (not that it matters so much as we can get it from the US PSN now thanks to the above) despite the fact that it’s already localised? Maybe they can shed some light on a slow certification process in EU or some miscellaneous Sony shenanigans causing the delay.

@ All - all you have to do is head over to Eurogamer around 6pm and start typing questions. The team there will pick the best questions and get Evan to answer them, easy!

I got one answered (also asked 4 other questions) ! Here it is:
Obli asks: How hard would it be to port Uncharted to the Xbox 360? I’m not just talking storage constraints (Blu-ray). Could Uncharted be faithfully recreated without the use of Cell?
Evan Wells: I won’t say that it would be impossible, but it would be very difficult and we most certainly would have to make enough concessions that it would start to feel like a different game. One thing that would be particularly difficult would be keeping the game load-free. The HDD really came in handy and allowed us to have pretty big open levels with lots of detail.

Eurogamer died for me….

Hello everyone. Tom from Eurogamer here. Thanks to all who submitted questions. We tried to get through as many different people as possible, but sorry if we missed you out. On the plus side, we expect more of these in the near future - and Evan won’t be the last PS3 developer either, so keep an eye out. We’ll make sure the folks at Three Speech know in advance so they can keep you informed too. Cheers.

I was surprised that Uncharted didn’t cache a big load of data on the HDD like Ratchet, Resistance, Motorstorm, and Warhawk do. I figured that meant it wasn’t really using the HDD. In america by the way.

Unrelated, but the most recent post but… Regarding Assassins Creed, has anoyone else experience how unstable it is, I’ve played for a couple of hours and twice its frozen up. Once during a loading screen and the other during play - all the people including me just stopped moving although everything else stayed active. Peculiar…

@ Obli - Thanks for that Obli. Happy Mondays.

@12 - Terry, I’ve heard this is happening and although I can’t see for myself as I’ve not got A.C. yet, apparently it will be addressed in firmware 2.01, which is due imminently. (and before anyone goes on about XMB, I doubt this will miraculously appear in 2.01 or any other major differences…)
Anyway, some suggestions have been made that, until 2.01 is released, if you turn off the Information Bar and log out of the PSN, this can stop the freezing.
Let us know how you get on with that as I’m interested in getting A.C. at some point soon.
