A Preview of Microsoft Working on Smaller Xbox 360? from 1up: Sony's PlayStation 3 may hold the title for heaviest console of all time, but with last year's release of the slimline PS3, the Xbox 360 suddenly doesn't look so trim. Microsoft might have plans to rectify that, however, as Chinese tipsters have posted images of what they allege is a compact, redesigned version of the Xbox 360 hardware. Kotaku spotted the original forum post containing the supposedly leaked images. According to that thread, prototypes of the ...

A Preview of Over 2 Million Just Cause 2 Demo Downloads from 1up: In addition to releasing yet another ridiculous stunt video for Just Cause 2, publisher Square Enix has also revealed a bunch of statistics about the Just Cause 2 demo that's been making the rounds over the last two weeks or so. Included on the demo's stats sheet: over 2 million downloads. Impressive as that number may be, the rest of the data Square cataloged is even more stupefying. Did you know, for instance, that demo players have exterminated a cumul...

A Preview of Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days Scheduled for August 24 Release from 1up: Got a soft spot in your heart (or maybe your head) for Kane and Lynch? It looks like you're going to have to wait just a bit longer for the sequel. Publisher Square Enix just announced Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days for an August 24 release in North America. The follow-up to Eidos' controversial 2007 game pits the titular protagonists against Shanghai's underground crime lords. It also sports an entirely new, YouTube-inspired visual style, whi...

A Preview of Skate 3 Releasing May 11, Full Roster Revealed from 1up: Electronic Arts announced today that Skate 3 will be releasing for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on May 11 in North America, with an international release following on May 14. Along with the release date, EA also revealed the full roster of professional skaters that'll be playable in Skate 3, which you can find below. Among them is actor Jason Lee, who you probably know from My Name is Earl or any number of Kevin Smith movies. Lee was also a pro-skater...

A Preview of Fils-Aime Prods Sony's Hopes for a Move Migration from 1up: Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime is skeptical of Sony's hope to make the Move an appealing proposition for Wii owners. In an Industry Gamers interview, he addresses users who might be tempted to get the Move based on it looking like a hi-def Wii. "So I'm a consumer and I'm having a great experience with my Wii," Fils-Aime said. "And we know that's the case - we look at the software that's being purchased. Consumers love the Wii. What'...

We’ve been doing shows lately that focus a lot more on what we’ve been playing than the weekly news. Some people enjoy that, while others liked the old format. What would you guys like to hear? More news, more weekly games played, or a nice mix of both?

Download the show here (oh boy, I love podcasts!)

I absolutely love hardcore SEGA fans. Why is that, you ask? Because they’re absolutely insane…just like Nintendo fans.

Some intense snooping has been going on to find out just who has registered SonictheHedgehog4.com, and it brings us a huge amount of information to go over. Thankfully, that detective work has already been done for us! The end result points to a registration from Brandon Laurino, who just so happens to be Sega’s Community and Online Director. If SEGA really is going to go with this name for Project Needlemouse, they better be ready to bring out something amazing.

Check out this blurb from the latest issue of Famitsu…

“SEGA also mentioned the chance of one of the three hardware makers financing the game’s production in exchange for an exclusivity deal. Let’s see if Microsoft, Nintendo or Sony are interested.”

Wouldn’t it be great to see Nintendo fund this project? It seems like something that Nintendo and SEGA could really make work. I’ll keep my toes crossed for this one. I want it to happen, but I just don’t think it will!

See that logo portion that has been circled in the image above? Could this be related to the new Pokemon game that Mr. Iwata just confirmed a few days back? We might find out on next week’s Pokemon Sunday, which will see a special guest appearance from Gamefreak director Junichi Masuda. Sounds like an episode to keep an eye out for! Thanks to Norman for the heads up!

Well, this is a bit of a sad story to report. Koch has closed down Deep Silver Vienna, which just so happened to be the developer behind Cursed Mountain. What makes things even worse? Cursed Mountain was the very first game from Deep Silver Vienna. Koch stated financial issues as the reason for the closure of the studio.

It’s a real shame, because the developer’s first game was actually quite an impressive one.

A portion of a WiiLoveIt interview with Fugazo’s Andrew Lum…

WLI: Does the DSiWare service appeal to you in any way, from a marketing perspecive? Do you think Frobot would be a good fit for that platform?

AL: If we were to make Frobot for a portable console I think we would do a traditional retail DS release instead of a DSiWare. However, since the tech is so different for DS than Wii, it’s pretty unlikely that Frobot will make it onto Nintendo’s portable console.

WLI: Have you given any thoughts to what other project you might undertake next?

AL: We have too many ideas here at Fugazo. If Frobot does well we definitely plan on making another WiiWare game though!
