The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu Magazine discloses Chunsoft's revelation of their new games for the PS3, PSP and DS. The first game is a PS3 and PSP port of 428: In the Blocked City Shibuya, while the other one - for the DS - is 9 Hours, 9 People, 9 Doors. Sounds exciting.

Konami blew quite a few minds at E3 when they announced that Metal Gear mastermind Hideo Kojima would be involved in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, their upcoming reboot of the Castlevania franchise. It has since come to light that the game is actually being made by Mercury Steam with Konami Europe producing. It wasn't even really a Castlevania game in the beginning. So just what does Kojima's involvement entail, then? The man himself answered that question in a recent Famitsu interview.

Wow, there are lots of new game announcements (leaks?) in this week's crop of Japanese gaming mags. We've seen God Eater and Minna no Sukkiri -- both for the PSP. Now here's one for the DS: a new Final Fantasy game laid bare in the new Weekly Shonen Jump issue. Yes, this is the new game that Square Enix has been teasing us about for the past few days. Details and a scan after the jump.

So it wasn't Hot Shots Skydiving after all. The official reveal isn't until Friday, but Japanese gaming mag Famitsu has already detailed the latest PSP installment in the Hot Shots -- or Minna no -- series: a mini-game collection called Minna no Sukkiri.

If Lost Planet (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) seems at times like a Monster Hunter game set in a different planet, then Namco Bandai's new PSP title God Eater is a Monster Hunter game set in a futuristic urban environment. Judging by the media released so far, that doesn't necessarily seem like a bad thing.

Appearing at Famitsu's "Midnight Live 360", Capcom producer for Lost Planet 2, Jun Takeuchi,  indicated that the 4-player coop exhibited at this year's E3 will be coming to Xbox Live as well. Well, it's not exactly written on stone and in clear black and white. He did only say, "soon, I guess," after all.

You can be sure to watch out for the announcement of Spectral Force Legacy for the PSP in the upcoming issue of Dengeki PlayStation and Weekly Famitsu. Idea Factory's SRPG was spotted in a scan in a Japanese magazine, and it appears to be a remake of the very first iteration in the series.

Wow. Lots of updates from Namco Bandai today. This one's not Tekken-related though. For now we turn to another mainstay in the company's portfolio -- the Tales franchise, specifically the PS3 version of Tales of Vesperia and the PSP title Tales of VS.

Did you guys see that Bayonetta model at E3? Man, I can only applaud such dedication. She didn't look half-bad either. The game's been looking damn good too, and it's been steadily building up hype for its impending yet still unannounced release. Japanese gaming mag Famitsu is also getting in on the Bayonetta action with a full six-page feature complete with an interview with game director Hideki Kamiya and producer Yusuke Hoshimoto. More after the jump.

Speaking to Japanese gaming mag Famitsu, Sony Computer Entertainment revealed that a new puzzle game is coming exclusively to the PSN - QRuToN (pronounced as kuru-ton). It may not have anything to do with yummy bread cubes, but you do work with square tiles in this one, complete with the manga-look that you don't see in puzzle games very often. More info after the jump.
