David Jaffe's Stargazing, Fo Real

http://www.gamesetwatch.com/jaff.jpg God Of War creator David Jaffe, who's currently working on an unnamed PSP title, has updated his personal weblog after a long hiatus, and it's all about... stargazing!

Jaffe explains in the post: "My brother brought his telescope over to my new house the other night... And eventually, I came across Saturn. It's a big sky so it took awhile. But eventually, I found it. At first, I was just looking at this fuzzy white blob. I thought it may have been another star. But as I adjusted the focus, the rings came into view. I was looking at Saturn. In real time... It actually took my breath away. Not hyperbole, folks. My mind actually- quite unconsciously- sent signals to my body that made me gasp."

Of course, this means that Jaffe's new PSP game is called Saturn and it's also on Sega Saturn and it's about exploring the stars and it's competing with Spore for the... oh! Jaffe adds: "I 100% promise this has NOTHING to do with my next game. No, it's not a viral marketing thing. Just a story about my backyard and seeing Saturn thru a telescope. :)" [Though there is a mini conspiracy theory in the comments about why Jaffe's new house is in San Diego but he's working at SCEA Santa Monica, but we'll leave that discussion to the real tinfoil hat types.]
