In a recent interview with IGN, THQ CEO Brian Farrell stated that the next Red Faction and Saint’s Row games will be unveiled at E3, alongside a new De Blog game, and, best of all, the much anticipated Warhammer 40,000 MMO will finally be unveiled and actual gameplay will be demoed. We can’t wait!

While the sci-fi multiplayer shooter Section 8 has somewhat impressed PC and Xbox 360 audiences, the PS3 crowd was left out of the fun, and they were promised the game this Spring.

However, it now appears that the game will be released as a download only title on PSN and won’t come in a retail box package.

On a better note, the PS3 game will include three maps which were originally sold as DLC on the other platforms.

The game will be released on the PS3 next month.

Grab your wallets, dear readers, cause Amazon is running one fine promotion today, as three of the best selling games of 2009, Modern Warfare 2, Assassin’s Creed 2 and Left 4 Dead 2, are all for just $40 a piece — $10 off the regular price.

Arguably one of the greatest guitarists of all times, Jimi Hendrix, if anyone, should get his own Rock Band standalone game. And he will, according to Hendrix’ sister, Janie, who controls his estate. However, this hasn’t been confirmed by the suits, so don’t expect anything official. At least not until E3.

Pixar’s first non-original film is slated for release this summer, and alongside it, the video game adaptation which will be out on no less than all consoles. Yep, that’s right, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PC, DS, PSP and even the iPhone. The game is slated for release on June 14.

With the immense success of the original Nintendo DS, it’s no secret that Nintendo has a DS 2, of sorts, cookin’ up over in their labs. However, with no concrete evidence regarding the device its existence remains speculation.

Today, in a statement to CVG, a developer apparantly working with the console said the following:

“It’s genuinely the best thing I think I’ve ever worked with, I can tell you that it’s got a ’tilt’ function that’s not dissimilar to iPhone, but does a lot more. We know that The Pokemon Company are getting special attention with it.”

So, if developers already have this new motion sensing DS2, it can’t be long until the consumers can get their hands on it, right?

Despite the fact that Final Fantasy XIII‘s release date is just around the corner, there is still a dedicated community playing Final Fantasy XI, Square Enix’s first go at an MMORPG.

If you haven’t gotten down on MMO and want to, now’s your chance as Square Enix has just announced that they will be lowering the price of the Final Fantasy XI Ultimate Collection to just $14.99. This is an amazing price point especially since the Ultimate Collection features all of the games released content.

Have you played and Guilty Gear or BlazBlue games? If so, you’ll undoubetly know that Arc System Works is the mastermind studio behind these popular franchises. And, while their latest title BlazBlue has spanned the likes of the PS3 and Xbox 360, the Wii has effectively been left in the dust.

Well, luckily, the studio has come forth to announce that they will be release a Wii title after all. However, it’ll be quite different from their other console offerings. In fact, this will be a bass fishing game. Yup, you read that right, a bass fishing game.

God knows why they wouldn’t just attempt a Wii port of BlazBlue but there must be a fishing gamer demographic for them to do something seemingly so ridiculous.

If you’re a fan of Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising you’ll be disappointed to hear that Codemasters has recently confirmed that they will no longer be releasing patches or DLC for the game. The reason for this being that the studio has now completed the Dragon Rising chapter and has moved onto bigger and better things.

Of course, this most likely means another game in the series but we will wait for official word before we pass judgement.
