Quote:Nintendo's booth at the Electronic Entertainment Expo is almost complete, and the company's plans during this week are coming to light. IGN reports that at one of the demo kiosks in the Nintendo DS section of the show floor, the company has a Nintendo DS Online demonstration setup. Best of all is that on the sign marking the demo stations are the listed games "Mario Kart DS" and "Animal Crossing DS"
While Animal Crossing DS had previously been announced as an online Nintendo DS title, Mario Kart DS, however had not been revealed to be an online game, until just now.
The online demo station appears to have several slots for numerous systems; at least eight will be used to show off the online support of the system.
Expect more news, as we get it, here at Cube-Europe!
GCA FIRST: We can confirm an exclusive[i] Sonic title for the GameCube.[/i]
The Advanced Media Network can confirm that there is an exclusive GameCube title in the works from SEGA, called Sonic Gems Collection. The game, which was kept secret until now, will be fully playable at E3.
Expect more on this GameCube exclusive title later this week!
Maybe should have mentioned this a couple of days ago, but oh well. Anyway, Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst, the PC version of PSO, is in open beta... anyone who wants (and sets up a free account) can play, until June 10. Then it becomes pay-to-play with a monthly fee (the client is free, they make money from the fee...)... yeah, I won't be playing once that happens, but it's completely free right now, so I have been for a few days...
That's the team that made Metal Arms. They're the ones currently doing Starcraft Ghost (version 2.0... :))... Blizz bought them. Of course, Blizz is owned by Vivendi Universal, but they've got a good amount of leeway because of their success so I think this'll turn out better than most corporate acquisitions...
