So the news is out. Sony will be releasing a special Blu-ray edition of God of War 1 and 2. Now that the gates have been pushed open by that berserk albino Kratos, will we be seeing more PS2 games released on Blu-ray in the future? Nothing is definite yet, but it seems that publishers are starting to think about getting on the PS2-to-Blu-ray wagon.

Things are sure heating up fast! Only a few hours since the "news" broke out that a certain company is keeping Sony from putting in Cross-Game chat features among others, angry fanboys are out with their pitchforks on a hunt for the said responsible party. As many of you have already caught on in the comments section of the previous article, it's not Activision. More speculations, care of Superskull85's tips, in the full article.

Thanks, Superskull85!

It's been 13 years in the making, but now it's finally here. Yes, the 1996 Sega Saturn/ PS1/ 3DO original, Konami produced, Kojima-created Policenauts has finally completed its English localization process. Again, FINALLY.

The latest to announce their lineup for next week's GamesCom event is developer and publisher Capcom. One game that they're highlighting is Lost Planet 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360), the PS3 version of which will be making its worldwide debut at the event. See the rest of Capcom's lineup after the jump.

It's been more than a year since Metal Gear Solid 4 launched but it still remains without Trophy support despite repeated requests from fans. Konami says that they're listening, but they just don't have anything concrete to announce yet.

Earlier today, Konami and Kojima productions revealed the games that they'll be taking to GamesCom. Apart from showing off what these games have to offer, the publishers also promise special presentations of the games, and maybe they'll be sitting down for interviews as well.

General Industry news is taking a back seat for this week, but that doesn't mean the gaming world was any less exciting. We've got a lot of hardware issues this week, actually, from missing PSP Go nubs to limited disc space, to the alarming drop in the numbers of said hardwares, we've got a busy hardware week in our hands.

Koji "IGA" Igarashi has been involved with Konami's Castlevania franchise since for a dozen years now. I was personally surprised that the man considered to be a Castlevania icon wasn't anywhere near the E3 stage when Konami announced Lords of Shadow (PS3, Xbox 360), but it appears that we may be hearing more from him in a few months' time.

Bring the classic music of the Jackson 5 into your track archive now that Konami has announced that they have secured the rights to the music of Jackson 5, now MJ and his brothers are coming to the new Karaoke Revolution for the Xbox 360, PS3, and the Wii. Cool.

Konami's online ID codes haven't been received well. For good reason, too. The system requires gamers to have three separate accounts just to play an online Konami game, and that's just overkill. The good news though is that Konami is finally starting to get rid of them.
