In an interview with a member of the Killzone 2 development team during the Leipzig Games Convention 2007, the interviewer asks:
Interviewer: "Will there be a demo?"I agree 100%. I guess that means that a Killzone 2 demo or beta will be coming soon, no?
Dev: "I think that in this day and age, you HAVE to have a demo"

Electronic Arts has done well for itself with most of its streetball games -- NBA Street and NFL Street both have had a solid run -- but the soccer version FIFA Street hasn't made the same impression. That said, the team is calling up the franchise for a third edition, this time with the power of next-generation consoles providing the power/stylee for what is hoped to be a fresh new start for the series.
EA officially confirmed FIFA Street 3 in a small mention about the game in an official press release earlier this week. In development at EA Canada, the game was shown behind closed doors at the Leipzig Games Convention. Official details about FIFA Street 3 are not yet available for the public, and the game has not yet been officially announced for release in any for specific territories (the game is being shown in Europe, so we'll assume it's coming there, and FIFA Street 1 and 2 had releases stateside and elsewhere in North America as well.) Exact platform plans were not officially announced either, other than that the game shown at GC was "next generation consoles" -- this is assumedly PS3 and Xbox 360, but it's not known yet whether Wii fits in the plans or if other current-gen systems or handhelds will see FIFA Street 3.
We'll have more about this street soccer game soon.

Remember these old sketches from a while back showing concepts of LittleBigPlanet characters? Well, you can actually make these guys in the full game, even that little Italian plumber."That was just early concept art," creative director Mark Healey informed CVG, "but you can customise your character so much that that's entirely possible." Our LBP character's going to have a nice set of Master Chief armour then...
Healey said it's completely possible since you can add to your character from images directly off the hard-drive so basically anything is possible.

If you've been listening to the man, you'd know that emphasis has been placed into this iteration's career mode as well as its controls. Analog sticks will be used to control arms, making tricks more realistic and opening up countless possibilities. The career mode, on the other hand, will offer countless customization options and a non-linear path to stardom. Styles will definitely matter as you custom-build your athlete and get him primed for the extreme.
Today, Hideo Kojima has revealed two important facts about Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. When asked a horridly conceived question about the game's soundtrack, Kojima responded with what he described as a bit of a slip, telling the crowd that "there will be a special feature where maybe you can play your favorite [soundtrack]."
Before that information was found out, Kojima told Kotaku that Metal Gear Online is a completely independent game, meaning it's a separate release, and Metal Gear Solid 4 will feature partial online play.
