Kojima says Peace Walker is a "Test" for MGS Series
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is instituting a few intriguing new ideas for the MGS series, and according to recent tweets from Hideo Kojima (yes, Hideo Kojima is tweeting now), they may be the precursors to what could eventually be another new Metal Gear Solid game on a different platform.
“It’s not that PSP is the main platform for the future MGS series,” Kojima wrote (via Andriasang). “Peace Walker is a test to see what type of expansions are there if MGS is brought to a portable. We’re not just rising vertically with development on next generation systems, but also horizontally, trying to expand gameplay.”
So no, Kojima never out-and-out says it, but the implication is clearly that new ideas in Peace Walker may evolve into a new MGS possibly on current-gen hardware (or maybe they’ll end up in Metal Gear Solid: Rising, which we still no so very little about?). Among Peace Walker’s more intriguing new features is four-player co-op, where gamers can give each other various kinds of support by “synching” their characters together (check out our last preview for a more in-depth explanation).
Blizzard Still Targeting StarCraft 2 for First Half of 2010
During the latest episode of their “BlizzCast” podcast, StarCraft 2 producer Chris Sigaty revealed some good news for long-patient StarCraft fans: It’s still Blizzard’s intention to release StarCraft 2 in the first half of 2010…even if that means shortening the beta more than they originally planned.
“We were targeting three to five months for the beta, we’re really at a three month period of time for the beta at this point. We are still targeting the first half of this year… [for release],” Sigaty said during the podcast (via Shacknews). Their original time-span for the beta would have put the release of StarCraft 2 into the second half of the year at the earliest, but with three months (counting February, perhaps, as the first month), that would have it ending by around April, and leave May and June to institute any tweaks, balancing, or bug-fixing and have the game out on store shelves.
StarCraft 2, if it’s even humanly possible to recall, was first announced way the hell back in 2007. But hold tight, folks — it looks like the wait is indeed almost over. Or if you had $300 to burn for a beta key, it could be over right now. Just sayin’.

Stadium Events sells for $41,300, becomes most expensive NES game ever
We’re not sure which element of this story is the most newsworthy, so we’ll lead with this: Some person, somewhere in the world, recently spent $41,300 on an extremely rare NES game. Someone was perusing the eBay auction block, saw Stadium Events (which Nintendo bought the rights to and retitled World Class Track Meet), and said, “you know what? That looks like the kind of thing I’d like to spend an American’s median annual income on.”
According to Video Game Price Charts, that auction has turned Stadium Events into the most expensive NES game ever sold. There are around 200 copies of the game still floating around out there — which should be enough to send most of you rushing to your local pawn shop in a Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory-esque tizzy.
[Thanks to everyone who sent this in!]
