Tuesday, July 10th, 2007
As per usual, various sources, whether through leaks or from companies jumping their E3 guns, have released a bunch of quite interesting news to whet our appetites for the E3 announcements that are surely to come within the next couple of days. Game Usagi has compiled these stories into a convenient hutch* for you so that you don’t have to go through the laborious task of searching out these random stories from the five corners of the internet (the internet has more corners than the world, obviously). So, here they are:
- Mario & Sonic at the Olympics screens (for Wii & DS)
- Forever Blue (new Miyamoto IP) Japanese boxart
- First NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams footage
- Wii Guitar Hero III controller
- The rest of the Guitar Hero III controllers
- Tales of Symphonia sequel announced for Wii
- PS3 Price-Cut & 80GB model

Movie Review: Ratatouille
Friday, July 6th, 2007
The primary purpose of reviews are to provide the audience/consumer with an educated and critical opinion of the item in question. Seeing as how this is the case, I may not seem to be doing my job effectively. This is because I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this spectacular movie.
