While White Knight Chronicles copies in Japan are probably gathering dust by now, the US release just got dated. Yes, the game that was released nearly a year ago in Japan is only getting a US release date now. Well, if it's any consolation, the White Knight Chronicles International Edition will have features packed into it that the Japanese release got in November. Still interested?

 

 

In case the rock in Rock Band wasn't hardcore enough for you, would you care for a few rounds of Slipknot? Turn up the speakers and warn your neighbors, Corey Taylor and the rest of the masked metal menaces are making their Rock Band debut next week.

At 57, Shigeru Miyamoto is already known as a living legend, well-known in gaming spaces the world over. With Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and Donkey Kong among the creds under his belt, the Nintendo mastermind has his fame well-deserved. His latest badge is Japan's Lifetime Achievement Award, in recognition of all his work and contributions to gaming over the years.

Dynasty Warriors - fun. Online - fun. Dynasty Warriors Online - fun. All that in PlayStation 3 - awesome. Koei is really set on porting Dynasty Warriors Online into the PS3, and lucky for us, a retailer leaked some juicy info about the next adventure for the warriors of the Three Kingdoms.

 

Thanks again to Peter Bauer.

Trademark-spotting again, courtesy of Siliconera. This time, a new Square Enix trademark was found registered in Europe, bearing the name "Chaos Rings". New IP or just a subtitle? Hard to say, "Chaos" happens to be one of the publisher's favorite clichés.

 

 

 

Montreal is really moving up on the gaming density. As of THQ's latest announcement, the city will be home to yet another development studio. This won't be just another studio, for the publisher, plans have it that it would be their biggest yet.

 

 

 

Yesterday was a big day for PlayStation and a lot of people did a little something-something to commemorate the event. For Hideo Kojima and MGS artist Yoji Shinkawa, they took a pair of ordinary PSPs, and with a few scribbles of a marker, turned them into must-have rarities. It's that sort of Midas-Touch magic that guys like them have.

 

 

 

They've explained it before, but it appears that many in the scene weren't quite satisfied with PSPGEN's firmware release delay news. Tough break, but don't worry, you'll still get to play Gundam vs. Gundam on your PSP eventually. As for their reasons, MaGiXieN obliges and lets us in on their case.

 

Thanks to cmbeke

We do know that Terminal Reality has something cooking up in their kitchen for Microsoft's new technology, Natal. What we don't know is what the nature of the said new project is. Well it seems like the project is going full steam ahead, as the team has posted yet another job listing, this time dropping a hint that the said "exciting AAA Natal Title" just might be an open-worlder.
