... It's Panzer Dragoon in all but name, all right, and Panzer Dragoon is one of the greatest game series ever. That's awesome. The minus, of course, is that it's also Kinect...

Nintendo has their Space Show thing don't they? I don't expect them to make an appearance here.

The Ico/Colossus PS3 HD release is great, a nice tie-in to the upcoming game. I wonder if Ico will have the multiplayer feature they added to the Japanese version... I always figured that putting a human in control of the princess would make the more frustrating parts much more fun. I also hope that the games are otherwise identical, right down to the main menus being maintained. The games were simply excellently presented.

"Project Draco" is clearly just a project name. I figure it'll be revealed as Panzer Dragoon something-or-other at some point. Kinect... I really have to actually use it to get any idea how well it works, but an on-rails shooter seems like a good fit since you don't have to solve the problem "how do I walk around?" in such a game.

Nintendo hasn't done Space World in a long time.

Yeah, but they do have a press conference at the end of the month, so expect first party Nintendo announcements then.

I was talking about third party games, though. Evidently the Wii is as dead for third party Japanese publishers as it is for American ones, stupidly enough...
