Can you guys help me catch up on news over the last two weeks? Only picked up on a few random stories, probably missed heaps...

- saw the cancellation of The Getaway (caught my eye)

...not sure what else...

How is MGS4 going?

Haze sales? GTA sales? Any more E3 stories, new hardware or something else? New games announced?

(weddings were good, many thanks to those who msg'd :>)

Hey! Ubisoft Boycotts by Wii owners. Capcom announced Spyborgs and Neopets for the Wii.
People started to get angry with 3rd party devs.

3rd parties announce a bunch of Wii exclusives: Tenchu 4(5 and 6 too), Rune Factory, Moon's Peak, Dokapon Kingdom and some more.

And this just in, SO4 announced for Xbox360 (presumably exclusive) and Last Remnant timed exclusive for the 360.

Proud poster of the 10000th reply at the Official Smash Bros Update Thread.

tag - "I wouldn't trust gamespot, even if it was a live comparison."

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

CrazzyMan predicts that MGS4 will move 1 million extra hardware in June-August alone.

Then there were those MGS4 spoilers all over the place last night. TBH it was quite entertaining to witness the panic and phear it caused.
