Screenshots have popped up for Megaman ZX, the DS followup to the Zero series. I’m curious to see how this turns out, as the only description I read ran 3 pages, but all it told me is that this series takes place after the events of the Zero series. It looks pretty sweet, I just hope it’s not as hard as Zero was. Zero made me want to cry.

Ridge Racer 7 is apparently in development for PS3. I haven’t touched this series since #4, but it is a classic thanks to some wonderful arcade drift physics. I’m just not sure how it’ll compete in the US market with the likes of PGR, Forza, Need for Speed, and Gran Tourismo.

Pretty much every gaming site I go to (Joystiq, Kotaku, ArsTechnica) has been abuzz with rumors of a Nights sequel for the past few days. I haven’t seen any facts to back this up, so take it with a large grain of salt. But we can dream, can’t we?

I love Command and Conquer as a series. I love it dearly. But the news of a 3rd entry in the main series is very dissapointing to me, because as far as I can tell, none of the original staff are going to be involved in it.
For those of you who don’t know, the studio that made all of the original Command and Conquer games, Westwood, was broken up by EA while they were working on the original 3rd game to the series. Much of the old staff have moved on to form Petroglyph, who made Star Wars: Empire at War.
I don’t have much faith in the series without Westwood. The one non-Westwood C&C game, Generals, wasn’t awful, but it certainly lacked the magic I had come to expect from the series. I’m hoping for the best and fully expecting the worst here, folks.

About freaking time. I really have nothing to add to this except thank the lord we don\’t have to put up with Starforce\’s garbage on future Ubisoft releases.
