EA hosted a closed door event on October 19, and they allowed a few lucky gamers to play some of their PS3 upcoming titles. Nobody knows what those gamers had to do in order to get their hands on the PS3 controllers but the fact of the matter is that they did it before many of us.


Those present in the event had a chance to see several titles running on PlayStation hardware. They were allowed to play for the first time the NFL official game Madden. The teams showcased were Chicago and Arizona.

The lucky few selected also had the chance to try out the single-player mode of Fight Night. The most interesting moment of the entire event was when the PS3 version of Need for Speed: Carbon was put on display. Besides Carbon the new Def Jam Title, Def Jam: Icon was also shown.

For those specially interested, know that the PS3 version of Need for Speed: Carbon won't come out until November 14. The other titles showcased, including Def Jam Icon and Fight Night aren't scheduled for PS3 release until 2007.
