The Japanese are into some weird stuff, as evidenced by their fixation with tentacles. It’s a way to get around strict Japanese censorship regulations, you see…where was I? Oh right…manly shooters…of which none are as testosterone filled as Cho Aniki Zero for the PSP.

Don’t know if you’ve heard but apparently a new Ratchet and Clank game is coming out at the end of the month. *Insert shocked expression*. What makes this launch even more awesome is the fact that Insomniac, the people behind the game, are throwing a party and they want you to be there, I shit you not.

In a Mercedes Benz video posted on gtplanet (via N4G) the game’s creator, Kazunori Yamauchi, can be seen inspecting a thick Blu-Ray box which is more than likely what the final package for Gran Turismo 5 will look like. The curious thing is: it contains three separate Blu-Ray cases. One case is black, one red, and one blue. What on earth could they be for?

Missed me? Sure you did! Sorry about last week’s absence. Had a wedding to get to. Anyways, ever wonder what it feels like to be buried by games?

Nothing really major is coming out for the other systems aside from maybe Borderlands. For some reason, all the Wii games just decided to come out this week. Go figure.
