Little Big Planet just got a little more official with its North American box art. So you know what you are looking for come late October. Box art looks great and gets the idea across to all those soccer moms that are super to butcher the game's titles this holiday season. I can just hear them now, Big Tiny Earth, Little Mario Universe, Small Giantic Ocean, Sackboy Jumps Alot, that Mario ragdoll game for the Wii 360. Oh, the possibilities are endless. Also check out the cool fun cards for Little Big Planet in the gallery. They give you a great overview of the game.

Today on PSN you can get yourself one of the best arcade like games out there called The Last Guy. No you are not looking at Google Maps, it's actually a game. You control the Last Guy who is more of a super hero complete with cape. You run about the map area using your x-ray vision to see survivors trapped in buildings. Round them up and try to make your way to the escape zone while avoiding monsters. You can get the demo on PSN or spend $9.99 for the entire thing. There are also 2 free wallpapers to get. I played the demo lots last week and love the game, now if only Sony would release PSN cards so I could buy their awesome new arcade game.

To get the blood pumping even more for the Fall release of Wipeout HD on PSN. Here are some stunning gameplay videos.

Home producer, Martijn Van der Meulen, told IGN and Kotaku that HOME on Playstation 3 will release this year. So everyone sitting around wishing they had a 3D PlayStation version of themselves to play pool with, live in a crazy slick pad that you would never afford, plan out your WarHawk runs on your inside sandbox, and figure out how to digitally hump someone can fret no longer. Right?

In an interview with Kotaku, Ryan Payton (the luckiest Metal Gear fan on the planet) says he has officially left Kojima Productions. With no new games on the horizon and some bad family news, Ryan decided it was time to pack up and get back to the states & be closer to the family. Also he laments not being able to work with his "Kojima family" on METAL GEAR SOLID 5. (so thats confirmation its happeneing??@@!!) We here at DigitalSomething wish Ryan and his family all the best. Hopefully everything works out and we see something new and awesome come from Ryan. If you are unfamiliar with Ryan you can check out the podcasts he did for Kojima Productions during the development time of Metal Gear Solid 4, KP Report.

If you are like me, you eagerly awaiting Valve's co-op zombie kill fest. While previously set for release on November 4, Left 4 Dead has now been pushed back a few weeks to November 20th, to coincide the 10th anniversary of the release of the original Half-Life.

Despite my lust for this game, I guess I can wait for a few more weeks. What better way to celebrate the birth of Half-Life than to kill some zombies! Sounds like the perfect gift to me.

EA has pieced together a sweet new site that allows you to explore the back story behind the upcoming game, Dead Space. NoKnownSurvivors.com is an experiential site that will allow visitors to explore the narrative world of Dead Space. Over the next nine weeks, the site will use interactive components, 3D animations, voice acting, original video and animation, as well as Papervision 3D technology to tell two equally tragic four chapter stories.

This week Tiger Woods hits the links for the new season of the PGA with Tiger Woods PGA 09 and Mario takes on baseball with the new Wii title, Mario Super Sluggers.  It would also seem to be the week of the RPG, as we have 5 new games from that genre releasing this week as well.

A new trailer for the upcoming Bionic Commando game was released at GC 2008. Feature a few boss fights, and lots of swinging action.

For those who don't have a Street Fighter arcade unit a reasonable distance from them, you most likely will be getting your quarter circle+punch fix on your home console or computer. Thankfully Capcom is showing off the console version at LGC 08 right now. Check out the video of game play and screen shots. No new console characters have been confirmed at all yet.
