KOS-MOS: Am I getting my own title on the PS3? - Image 1

1UP only touched on a couple of rumors in EGM's signature Quartermann rumor column. GameFront.de picked up on the rest (really, what Gamefront didn't mention, 1UP did, and vice-versa), so now we can flesh out the rest of the rumor mill and call it an EGM Month. Unless GameFront overlooked something as well. Drum roll, please:

"Namco Bandai makes a PS3-Actionspiel with KOS-MOS (from Xenosaga)"

Curious, much curious. At the least it seems we may now have a PS3 game set in the Xenosaga universe. On the other hand it, if memory serves, also seems to follow a precedent set by *ahem* Tekken's Nina Williams in Death by Degrees (also by then-Namco). Xenosaga fans here pray that this action title, if it is in the works, will live up to the legacy of its RPG forebears.

On the other hand, what these fans would really like is the series' continuation in the PS3.

"Every Extend Extra and Rez appear for Xbox Live Arcade."

And it seems the migration/cross-pollination continues, following in the footsteps of Lumines (Lumines Live! on XBLA). But this is considerably believable, given the Q Entertainment precedent.

"A mysteriÃ¶ser Publisher co-operates with Food Network."

Is someone gearing up to take Cooking Mama on? Unless, of course, the "mysterious publisher" is Taito or Majesco, in which case it could be a promotion for Cooking Mama. Or an Iron Chef game, perhaps? (And if this is true, does this make Bobby Flay a playable character?)

"A new Need For Speed appears in the autumn, whereby it concerns a simulation."

Would we expect anything less from Electronic Arts?

"Warhawk is offered only as Downloa - oops, sorry. 1UP, Rumor Reporter and IGN got it earlier.
