Surfer Girl: Darkened Skye, MLB 2K8

Surfer Girl updates us today with more "insider" news. Lets see what she has for us today:

vernon. The game that Microsoft canceled is Sufjan Stevens' episodic adaptation of every Marilyn Monroe film that was going be available weekly on Xbox Live Arcade starting July 4th, 2008. I have been told Stevens will produce his next game, an episodic adaptation of March 1994 episodes of The Oprah Winfrey Show, for the PS3, and says large storage capacity of Blu-Ray and hard drive will not hinder his creativity.

visconti. 2K Boston is working on a PS3 port of the greatest game to ever arise from Boston, Darkened Skye: Game of the Year, is loaded bonus content and Sixaxis support, revolutionary next-gen features and is scored by up-and-coming British pop act Circulus. Tasting of virtual rainbows is scheduled for spring.

scott. Legendary prog-rock band Jethro Tull have signed a multi-year agreement with THQ for interactive musical products based on the band, the first, developed by Volition, is an untitled action-packed sandbox WWII fluting title for Wii slated for release in June.

maslin. In attempt to outdo their previous out-of-place selections, Take-Two has announced that Major League Baseball 2K8 will feature a soundtrack entire composed of indie rock in other languages, tracks featured in the game include "Svefn-G-Englar" by Sigur Ros, "Du Ar For Fin For Mig" by Dungen, and "M'emmener au jeu de boule" by Air.

rodgers. Capcom has revealed that the Wii version of Okami will feature Duran Duran's "Hungry Like a Wolf" as the theme song and will feature music from Sea Wolf ("You're a Wolf"), Wolf Parade, Wolf Eyes, Wolfmother, Peanut Butter Wolf, amongst others in order to connect with the modern gamer and ensure the game is successful this time around.

padgham. Also coming to the Wii is DaNcE DaNcE KLAXONS from Konami, which is described as "Dance Dance Revolution meets nu-rave act Klaxons." The game will "feature an adventure story mode in which you are a nineteen year old in 1992 London who has to rise to the top of the rave circuit and maintain fashionability and coolness and 'collect records,'" according to Klaxon Jamie Reynolds. The game will also allow players to download a copy of Klaxons' favorite game, 40 Winks to a Nintendo DS with a Wi-Fi connection.

She was also nice enough to update us with the Hindi translation of her post from yesterday. Warning: Don't read it if you don't want Resistance II spoiled.

"The levels in Resistance II, in order which they occur, are: Iceland (features Mech boss battle), U.S. Shoreline*, U.S. Defenses* (boss battle in which you defend Big Berthas), San Francisco (takes place at a college, boss battle against a lot of Titans), Redwoods* (boss battle against a bunch of stalkers), Logging Camp*, Farmtown U.S.A., Badlands* (boss battle against a bunch of Goliaths), Chicago* (boss battle against a Leviathan), Louisiana and Mexico* (Chimeran fleet cover the Yucatan). The last line in the game is "oh, shit..." Asterisks indicate multiplayer maps."

If you didn't read it, the quote describes the levels and such of Resistance: Fall of Man 2. That is as far as I'll go.
