    Ok, well this is a pretty vague news article, but it'll have to do for now.

    We have just received word that a major consumer electronics company will be revealing/teasing something gaming related later today (yeah yeah, an announcement of an announcement). The company and product can't be revealed until later, though both will likely be a bit of a surprise.

    The tease will apparently happen later tonight on the MTV show Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory that will air tonight at 9:30PM ET/6:30PM PT. Not the typical place you would see a videogame announcement, but that's where it will be happening.

    And that's all we can say for now.

    Finally

    An Apple console

    Awesome. I was just wondering when I would be able to play fart apps from the comfort of my couch.

    That's certainly an interesting controller design.

    The controller doesn't look too terrible, considering this is before twin analog sticks. The trackball in the center is kinda odd, but it was meant to be used for browsing the web on Netscape 3.0

    Would I be better off geting Lunar or Ys Seven on PSP? I've already played and beat the PS1 remake of Lunar and I've never played a Ys game before.

    The general consensus seems to be that Ys Seven is an awesome Action/RPG that's a lot faster paced than most. Conversely, I literally fell asleep when I played the Lunar PSP demo - combat is slow and boring and load times are frequent (which wouldn't be so bad since they're short, but the music stops everytime it loads).

    OK Ys Seven it is then. Fast paced is a big selling point for me.

    I liked Lunar, but it is a slow paced classic RPG.

    Just checked out some gameplay footage of Ys on youtube and the combat looks pretty chaotic but not boring.

    I was wondering when that would happen.

    All that's left is Alien Swarm and.. Uhh.. Lost Coast?

    EDIT: oh and Half-Life: Source

    That's coming later this month so I didn't feel the need to list it, as it's "on the schedule."

    Those other three may never be ported. (In fact, I believe Valve said Lost Coast would definitely not be ported)

    Lost Coast was just a tiny tech demo though, it's not like anyone's losing much. You could pretty much just youtube it and see all the relevant commentary in maybe 10-20 minutes.

    Hey, don't look at me, crap gets locked at 100 pages and this stuff moves fast.

    Or maybe people just don't want to post about the Kinect boat?

    At any rate:
