You can read it, you can already breathe it - E3 anticipation is quickly building up, teaser after teaser, bit by bit of every chunk of info we get. We've got all sorts of pre-E3 news on the Nintendo side this week. And as if they were holding their own homebrew-E3 this week, Tantric and the other Wiibrewers have rolled out some pretty cool updates and releases for their projects. The gist? We all win. The details? Read on.

Recently, when we hear "banned in Australia" the first thing that comes to mind is violence. The second game to be refused qualification in the region this year, however (Necrovision was the first), wasn't banned because of blood and guts but because of some good old-fashioned nudity.

It's the US PlayStation Store's turn now to roll the list out, and this week features two new downloadable games, two additional classics, and a whole lot of DLC. Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fists of Plastic is available for download this week for free, so be sure to check that one out as well. Complete list in just a click.

The bad boy of the X-Men once again shows us how bad (and a little crazy) he can get. Well if I heal quickly and have adamantium blades shooting up and down my knuckles, heck, I'd be as wild as he is. Anyway, here's yet another trailer for X-Men Origins: Wolverine (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS, PSP), where our boy takes on fellow X-Man Gambit, and the immovable Blob.

Tomorrow already? Yes! EA is indeed launching their very own PlayStation Home space for The Godfather II, and it's happening tomorrow!

Capcom's also got something special for people who might find themselves in the RE5 space. Check out the full article for more info.

Add one more title to the list of RTS games. Ubisoft has just announced a new one called R.U.S.E, is a "one-of-a-kind" RTS game set during World War II whose main selling point seems to be a feature that lets players bluff and deceive their way to victory.

Three more casual games are a go for the Wii as ESRB puts up their ratings for everyone to see! (How's that for weekend rhyme, huh? Yeah, yeah. It's the weekend boredom bug kicking in). According to the ratings board, Saint, Dragon Master Spell Caster, and Texas Hold 'Em are gracing your white console soon.

This'll be popular in Trekkie conventions. PSP homebrew developer goumba has released a new version of Sabacc Basics.
