Aside from Rub'a'Dub being revealed during the D.I.C.E. Summit, Phil Harrison gave two other interesting points that a couple of you might have either been eagerly waiting or hoping for.

Loco Roco sequel already in the works
Last December, it was reported that a sequel for the bouncy, blobby game of Loco Roco would be getting a sequel. Today, we get confirmation that it's already in the works - so much so now that even Phil Harrison himself was already able to play an early version of it "on the way" to the Summit. Unfortunately, he didn't reveal much and no release date was revealed.

Singstar this Spring
It's not only the Loco Roco blobs that'll be singing under the rays of a smiling sun. Phil gave a demo of the Singstar, which will be released this spring. The singing-sim will allow you to download songs via the PlayStation Network and you'd even be able to upload your own videos (taken from a USB camera) of yourself singing so that other users could rate it.

Although the latest season of "American Idol" is well underway now, who says you can't do your own singing on your Sony device? Whether you've got a PSP or PS3, expect some vocal chords to try your patience this year, whether from squeaky-sounding blobs or tone-deaf siblings. And this time, there's no Simon Cowell to save your soul.

i dont know about everyone else, but i'd like to see more of the same from a loco roco 2.



the simple play style with a basic "stages and worlds" courses, and a few mini-games on the side.



anything more would probably just mess up the game.



the original ened too soon, and another 10 worlds with a handful of new mini games would be just fine.

I can't wait! The first Loco Roco was awesome. Even if they had 2x the level in the second one, it would be awesome. Even if there are the same amount though, I'll be getting it.
