You may remember Square Enix tweeted about a Legend of Mana re-release as a PlayStation Network game archives release. Two weeks later, Shinji Hashimoto posted a small progress update.
Legend of Mana is in the middle of a test play. Past Game Archives twitter-nouncements, like Final Fantasy IX, were on PlayStation Network a few weeks after a test play tweet.

Have you taken the time to familiarize yourself with some of the biggest moments in the history of the Wipeout franchise? The original game's ship date? The day Psygnosis was acquired and rebranded SCE Studio Liverpool? How about the time young Billy Caruthers first traveled fast enough in Wipeout 64 to break the sound barrier, causing the speakers of his 17-inch television and his left eardrum to disintegrate?
You can learn all about these momentous occasions by visiting the "Wipeout Museum" space, which recently opened in PlayStation Home. The space celebrates the franchise's 15th birthday with a few scale models of the game's hovercrafts and a couple of interactive minigames -- you know, games like Wipeout Shooter, which recreates all the thrilling shooting gallery action for which the core series is known.

Sony has offered further details of its rollout for 3D support on PlayStation 3, including movies, PlayTV and photos.
According to Sony Europe's Mick Hocking, speaking at an event in London attended by CVG, a firmware update for Blu-ray 3D movie support will be released in September.
Support for 3D photos and video camera recordings will come by the end of 2010, he said, but he refused to specify the timing.
Beyond that, PlayTV users can expect to access 3D content through the DVR software as soon as broadcasters start offering them.
Sony is making a big push for 3D on a corporate level through its consumer electronics, games and movie divisions.
At E3 it showcased Killzone 3 in 3D and pledged to release a number of titles with 3D support.
Earlier this year the platform holder issued a firmware update for PS3 to prepare the console for 3D content, and last month it released 3D patches for PAIN, WipEout HD and Super Stardust HD, plus a MotorStorm: Pacific Rift 3D demo.

Publisher Namco Bandai has slapped an October 8th European release date for upcoming action title Enslaved.
The game, which will be released for PS3 and Xbox 360, is being developed by Ninja Theory – the studio behind PS3 launch title Heavenly Sword.
It’s is being co-directed by Lord of the Rings star Andy Serkis. Famed for his ground-breaking motion capture performance as Gollum, Serkis also takes centre stage as Enslaved’s lead protagonist – Monkey.
Co-writing duties are being handled by The Beach and 28 Days Later writer Alex Garland, with music being handled by composer Nitin Sawhney.

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck's Revenge joins the PlayStation Store today. This, like the first game, has been beautifully restored for a new set of eyes that aren't old and world-weary. And for those old-timers there is developer commentary and nostalgia to loosen a tear. Monkey Island 2 costs eight quid.
The PlayStation Store has a new batch of discounts to consider, none of which knock us silly, plus a slew of add-on game content. Dragon Age grows with Leilana's Song, Modern Warfare 2 finally receives the Resurgence Pack and Aliens vs. Predator gets some new maps.

On the Digital Comics Store there's a pile of reading to be done. Top of the list is issue 3 of Frank Miller's Batman: Year One.
PlayStation Home's also had a refresher and welcomes a WipEout area as well as some Monkey Island guff, Just Cause 2 threads, Street Fighter costumes and more. Oh, and Sony mentioned that the Hustle Kings event space will be removed next week.

July 8th, 2010, 23:23 Posted By: wraggster
It is unlikely that 2011 will see the release of an Assassin's Creed game, the series' associate producer has told Eurogamer.
Ubisoft Montreal's Jean-Francois Boivin said the popular stealth-em-up needs a "breather" following the release of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood later this year.
"Honestly, I think for the benefit of everybody – and business can come back and override everything I say because at the end of the day it's about selling games – I believe that this license needs a breather. You can't plough a field every year. Once every three years – or once every something – you have to let it breathe. You have to let the minerals back in. I think it's the same thing with any license, really.
"We can see a lot of the music games that are releasing year after year – the interest is a lot less than it used to be. The excitement is a lot less than it used to be. You want to keep people excited. You gotta make people miss it a bit. It's like, 'Oh man! I'm so happy it's back!' But if you keep force-feeding to people then people are like, 'Yeah, enough of your Assassin's Creed'.
"I don't think there's going to be an Assassin's Creed in 2011. I think we're going to let it breathe a bit and really focus on bringing something new and exciting for the next time around. This [Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood] is the end of Ezio's story. This is it."
Brotherhood, due out in the UK on 19th November for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360, will include multiplayer for the first time in the successful series, and is set in Rome. Ubisoft insists the game is more than "Assassin's Creed 2.5".
"I really don't know," Boivin replied when pushed on the duration of Assassin's breather. "Bottom line, it's not for me to say. We have some business people that will eventually put a date and say, 'This needs to come out'. We have our creative people, who are also pushing on their end, saying, 'We need this much time to do something new and refreshing, just scope wise'. So I don't know how much time we'll need.
"If we skip a year, I think we're good. But yeah, I think we could do something really true to the license if we skip a year and release it in 2012 or 2013. We need to keep it fresh though; we need to keep it relatively close by, because we have to keep the interest there. I don't think we do a service to this license if we pull a Duke Nukem on people, you know what I'm saying? It's hard to answer."
Despite Boivin's call for the series to take a breather, he told Eurogamer that the development team has already decided where the next game will be set and in what time period.
"We know exactly where we're going," he said. "It would lack vision and blunt intelligence to wing it episode after episode. We have to have some vision with the story. We very much do; we know all that stuff.
"I'll nibble on your hook. I can't directly answer your question. Of course you understand that. But what I can say is you have to remain true to what the license is. It's the story of Desmond Miles, and it's the story of a machine called an Animus that reads genetic memories from your ancestors. It has to stay in there. If it doesn't, then there's this whole justification that needs to happen.
"We need to keep doing that for the duration of this license. We need to keep treating players with respect and treating players with the smarts they have. That's why they will keep coming back, if we continue to keep doing that. That's the way I'm going to answer your question."

Lord of Arcana looks and probably has features comparable to Capcom’s Monster Hunter series. Square Enix’s game isn’t exactly the same, though. Lord of Arcana has differences like how it switches between the field and monster fights. When a Slayer runs into a monster the game creates an arena with invisible walls to fight in.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 producer Sasaki posted a blog reminiscing about old pre-order items for the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja series.
While Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm didn’t come with a keepsake in Japan, Sasaki says they have a pre-order bonus planned. In North America, some stores gave out codes to access support characters early.
Oh, and a PlayStation 3 demo is slated for next week. Sasaki briefly mentions the demo at the end and says it will be distributed in Japan first. That gives everyone reading this a week to create a Japanese PlayStation Network account if they don’t already have one to get early access to the Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 demo.

Today BioWare announced a sequel to Dragon Age: Origins, titled Dragon Age 2. They've opened an official site for the game, which shares some vague details and concept art, and promises a trailer in mid-August. The story will apparently span an entire decade and involve a new hero, but it will be located in the same world as the original game. The site says there will be "dynamic new combat mechanics," though the same three basic classes will be available. More information should be forthcoming in this month's issue of Game Informer.

Mick Hocking is a pretty important man in Sony towers.
As well as being a senior director of SCEE, he runs three major Sony development studios in the UK.
Oh, and he's the company's worldwide studios boss for 3D games.
Basically, when he talks about 3D, it's wise to listen... which is exactly what we did today, when Mr Hocking gave a presentation of what we can expect from PS3's 3D powers at an exclusive London event.
Below are the very words he used - and if you're a hardcore gamer, it's pretty difficult not to get very, very excited about what's coming down the line...
This year is obviously a very big year for us. There's the launch of Sony 3DTV, and also, crucially, the upgrade of the PlayStation3 to support 3D games.
Now, in June this year we did the 3D Firmware update. Every PlayStation 3 that's connected online now has a new version of this Firmware.
At the last count we've got 35.8 million PlayStation 3s out there - that means there's an instant market of around 36 million 3D-ready PlayStation 3 consoles. The upgrade basically makes every PlayStation 3 HDMI 1.4 compatible - that's the standard that governs 3D displays.
What this means is that there is no setup at all required. If you have a PlayStation 3 and you buy a 3DTV, you simply connect via your HDMI cable and your PlayStation 3 will automatically recognise that you've got a 3D display attached.
It knows the size of the screen as well, which is very important for actually rendering 3D correctly and giving you the right sense of depth.
And in our games you'll see the menu to play the game in 3D automatically. You don't have to press any buttons or go through any menus - it's all completely automatic and seamless, which is jolly good.
We've launched four titles in June to support the 3D ready PS3 - and these are also bundled with our 3D Bravia TVs for free. If you've already purchased them [in 2D] from our PSN store, they're also free to download - or you can go along and buy them if you don't have them yet.
There's Wipeout, Motorstorm, Super Stardust and PAIN - which involves throwing a character into scenery and hurting them as much as possible. All these are full games except for Motorstorm, which is a demo.
In September this year, we're launching another Firmware upgrade - and this one is going to upgrade the PS3 to support Blu-ray movies in 3D. Again, you won't have to do anything - just connect your PS3. For the film market that's a very significant event.
Then later in the year - we're not going to date it yet - the PS3 is going to support 3D photos. Of course the popularity of 3D isn't just going to come from movies and games. There's 3D cameras on the market, there's 3D camcorders coming on the market in the next 12 months as well, and 3D broadcasts.
Crucially for us, PlayStation 3 will be able to store all types of 3D content. And we can do this through properly upgrading the Firmware on the platform.

Successors to the Wii and Xbox 360 are more likely to arrive before the release of the PlayStation 4, according to a top Sony exec.
In an exclusive interview with Develop, Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida said he imagined either Nintendo or Microsoft will jump first to the next generation of consoles.
Five years into the current console generation and the three big platform holders have decided against discussing future hardware. When asked why he thought this was, Yoshida said:
“Looking from the outside, it was Microsoft that released the first of this generation of consoles. Naturally, in my opinion, Microsoft will make the first move.
“Or, because Nintendo’s approach was not to upgrade much on its basic hardware – Wii doesn’t even support HD resolution – so they might be the first to move.
“Probably the watch should be on these companies, in my opinion. Because PS3 was later than Xbox, and is more powerful, so it has a longer lifespan.”

Rockstar has announced it will release a series of downloadable content packs for Red Dead Redemption.
The four packs will be released on both PSN and Xbox Live over the next few months, starting with the Legends and Killers Pack next month. Also named was the Liars and Cheats Pack, Free Roam Pack and Undead Nightmare Pack.
“We want to continue to provide Red Dead Redemption’s fans with a steady supply of innovative new content,” said Rockstar founder Sam Houser.
“Our goal is to continue to pack as much entertaining gameplay and as many surprises as we can into the massive world of Red Dead Redemption over the coming months.”
Each Pack will add new content, characters, environments, weapons and more to the multiplayer mode – although the Undead Nightmare Pack will also add single-player missions as Marston faces off against ghosts and zombies.
With the exception of the Free Roam Pack, each DLC has been priced at £9.99 or 800 Microsoft Points. The last one, Undead Nighmare, will be released this autumn.

Square Enix, perhaps preempting the launch of Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, set October 14 as the release date for Lord of Arcana. Dengeki broke the news in this week’s issue.
While Square Enix confirmed Lord of Arcana for Europe and North America, a launch window was not announced.
A playable demo is scheduled for August 19 on Japan’s PlayStation Store.

Developers will be involved "at the very beginning of concepting new hardware", says Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida - as he admits the company is currently work on new platforms.
Speaking to website Develop, Yoshida admitted that previous Sony home consoles have been difficult to develop for and had suffered by not being designed with enough input from software engineers.
"When Ken Kutaragi moved on and Kaz Harai became the president of SCE, the first thing Kaz said was, 'get Worldwide Studios in on hardware development'," Yoshida said.
"So he wanted developers in meetings at the very beginning of concepting new hardware, and he demanded SCE people talk to us [developers]," he explained.
"I’m spending more time on the hardware platform,” added Yoshida. "Connecting hardware guys to developers. That’s my major role now, and Move is one of those new ways of developing platforms."
Yoshida admitted that he was currently involved in plans for new Sony hardware, saying: "We are undergoing many activities that we haven’t yet been talking about in public. Some future platform related activities.”
Although the research and development departments of all three console manufacturers are constantly prototyping new devices, it is unusual for Sony to refer specifically to such work. Rumours suggest that a new PSP is likely to be the company's next major new platform - with a reveal at this autumn's Tokyo Game Show thought likely by some.
As a matter of course the company will be also involved in ongoing development for an eventual PlayStation 4, although an actual release is not expected for several years.

Sony's "It only does everything" PS3 slogan could apply to its next portable console if a new report is true.
According to Wall Street Journal (via Kotaku): "Sony is developing a portable device that shares characteristics of hand-held game machines, e-book readers and netbook computers, according to people familiar with the matter."
WSJ didn't elaborate on exactly what that means for the handheld, or even if it was referring to the next PSP or simply a new device that's capable of gaming along with other functions, considering that statement could be used to describe a tablet device, phone, notebook or any other wireless device.
But it comes tucked away in a larger report speculating that Sony and Nintendo are in discussions with wireless carriers over including 3G connections in their next gaming handhelds.
WSJ goes on to note: "Some Sony e-book readers already come with 3G connections but it isn't clear if a new wireless gadget will use carrier networks."

The Nintendo 3DS and Sony's next PSP system may feature constant connections to the internet via 3G networks, according to a report.
Video game platform holders are apparently in talks with wireless phone carriers over the possibility of including 3G internet connections in new portable systems.
This is according to the president of Japanese wireless carrier NTT DoCoMo Inc, Ryuji Yamada, who's told the Wall Street Journal: "Videogame makers know that in order for portable game machines to take the next step forward, they need wireless communication."
He added: "We are discussing this with various players," although he refused to specify the 'players' to which he refers. But WSJ highlights Nintendo's interest in wireless improvements on 3DS, and Sony's netbooks and e-book readers that already feature 3G connections. Both companies declined to comment on the story.
WSJ notes that Nintendo's Hideki Konno said during E3 that there will "probably be discussions" with carriers in future, while president Satoru Iwata last year expressed interest in Amazon's e-reader Kindle, which bundled 3G wireless costs in with downloadable purchases so that users never needed to pay a monthly connection fee.
iPhone and iPad both use 3G networks to provide online-anywhere multiplayer gaming experiences (such as in games like Archetype - a competent FPS that features 10-player online matches playable anywhere via 3G).
Can Nintendo and Sony, the gaming specialists, afford to allow Apple's increasingly competent gaming systems to keep such a significant advantage over its dedicated console?
