eternal sonata
Eternal Sonata PS3 Coming In October
While it might be old news to some of you, last we'd heard the long-awaited and greatly enhanced PlayStation 3 version of Eternal Sonata was scheduled for a release sometime in the fall. Well while we weren't looking, sometime in the fall became sometime in October, which then got narrowed down even further to October 21st. While it's only been a year or so since I played the original, the improvements made between that version and this one - new characters, extra cutscenes, new outfits, etc. - might just be enough for me to pick it up again. Besides, it will be novel to play a relatively high quality Japanese RPG on the PS3 for once. More »

MotorStorm Pacific Rift Speeds Towards October Release
It's time to get down and dirty all over again as the Official PlayStation blog reveals the official release date for MotorStorm Pacific Rift, a follow up to what was briefly the best racing game available for the PlayStation 3. The game should be hitting stores on or around October 28th, just in time for the holiday Pacific island racing season. With all new four-player split screen multiplayer, sixteen tracks, real-time terrain deformation and *fanfare* trophy support, it looks to trump its predecessor in every way possible. More »

Fable II Definitively Dated
At Microsoft's E3 2008 press conference Peter Molyneux announced that Fable II would be released in October, but when in October? It's a pretty big month after all - one of the biggest in fact. Well now Microsoft has announced that the game will be in U.S. stores on October 21st, with folks over in Europe and the UK getting the title on the 24th. That gives us plenty of time to schedule time off, stock up on dog treats, and then return them to the store upon realizing we just bought treats for a virtual dog.

Dark Horizon
Dark Horizon On The Horizon For September
As a big fan of any PC game that combines space combat with joystick support, I feel I must draw attention to Paradox Interactive's upcoming space combat simulator, Dark Horizon. They've just announced the release date for the title, setting the big day for September 23rd in North America and September 26th in Europe, and it will be available both in retail form and as a download via GamersGate. With 22 missions, weapon and equipment creation, and advanced ship customization, Dark Horizon could very well be the game to scratch my space combat itch until PC developers realize that all we want to do is blow each other up in space over and over again.

Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest For Booty
Ratchet & Clank's Quest For Booty Dated
Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest For Booty is a $14.99 chunk of R&C goodness announced at E3 that picks up where the PlayStation 3's Tools of Destruction left off. It's got Ratchet hunting for his missing mechanoid pal, exciting new game mechanics to screw around with, and enough pirates to keep your booty moving for 3-4 hours. At $14.99 the game is a steal, but when can we steal it? August 21st, says the official PlayStation Blog, with Europe and North America getting the game simultaneously and Japan getting it on the 22nd, which could technically be the 21st for them anyway. Damn Japanese people, living in the future. More »
