While Steven Spielberg remains tight-lipped about his upcoming projects in the gaming industry, he's not above giving gamers a few teaser code-names. Teaming up with Electronic Arts, Spielberg has been developing at least three original titles over the past year. Recently, he gave away some hints as to the nature of his games.

First up is a game code-named PQRS, an action-puzzle-simulator that Spielberg claims would allow you to manipulate virtual blocks with the Wiimote as "if it were an extension of your hand". Tagged as a family title, this one is set to come out exclusive to the Wii and is probably the "Wii Spielberg" title hinted to come out before April of 2008.

Spielberg also mentioned a video game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 code-named LMNO. In the game, we'll be playing the part of an ex-secret agent on the run - which really isn't so original. The story becomes interesting when you add a girl with special abilities into the mix. The interactions you have with the girl will determine the nature of the abilities and how she will assist you in the game. "The challenge is, can the game have an emotional impact on players while they are actively manipulating the world?" Spielberg asks. Reportedly, their heroine comes with highly expressive facial gestures and translucent skin that lights up similar to a mood ring so the answer might be a definite: YES (or at least from this writer's point of view).

With Spielberg's talent for storytelling and creative ideas for mechanics, EA might be on to a good thing. It wouldn't hurt to set aside a few bucks for when these games come out.
