It seems that the source code for Hellgate:London has possibly been stolen. The last time something like this happened there was a huge delay on the game, with blame laid (and later denied) on the theft. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen here, because this game looks pretty good.

Silicon Knights is going to be doing a sequel to the hugely awesome Eternal Darkness. They just don’t say when.

Let’s see how Too Human turns out first, eh?

According to one Seattle Times columnist, Microsoft has a project Argo in the works that will compete with the DS/PSP/iPod/everything else. Some of what he says in the article is pretty damn sketchy. For example, he cites that it may use XNA to run games, but unless MS has been spending a lot of money in secret, this is pretty unlikely. Developing a solid handheld platform takes time and money, and selling it requires hype.

I’m waiting to hear more on this one.

There’s going to be a Tingle DS game. I’m rendered speechless by this development.

Apparently, if you have Megaman Zero games, they may unlock secrets in Megaman ZX. The Japanese version allows you to unlock boss battles in Rockman ZX with Rockman Zero 3 and 4. Completing the battles gives you bonus items.

Personally I’m just terrified of how hard the game will be. I was a master of Megaman, and found Megaman X to be a fair bit harder, and when I got to Megaman Zero I was just useless. At this rate, ZX will destroy me.
