GC 2008: EyePet
Another unique PlayStation Eye game called EyePet. It’s a virtual pet you can play with, even draw toys for him to play with. Nice to see more PS Eye games, keep them coming Sony.

The online play for this looks great. I’m going to have a lot of fun sniping in this game! They’ll be showing this video at 2008 Liepzig Games Convention event later this week. Follow this link for a HD video.

I’m tempted to sell my copy of Burnout and get the download version. But it depends how big the game will be. No release date yet, but it will be $29.99. It will include all the free updates so far to.
I’m impressed all the support this game is getting. Now that I’ve finally beat MSG4 I have time for other games, so I’ll be playing this again soon. And there is more updates coming this year.
This is the complete transformation of Burnout. That means you’ll see new game modes, new vehicles including motorcycles, day / night gameplay, weather, a huge new island play area, stacks of new challenges and maybe even aircraft!

Check out this Little Big Planet website. Not much to look at now. But if you click on the SackBoy you can place stickers all over the website. It’s actually quite fun. Here is one I created really quick, click to enlarge. Let’s see what you guys can do
NeoGAF has made some too, check it out, lol.

This is exactly why I like MGO, it’s so unique. It has so many things that other games don’t have. And this is another to add to that list. It started one night when I logged on for a few minutes and there was a news flash about the very first Instructor class, and only 15 people could get in. So I waited until 10 pm and refreshed like crazy and tried to join, but sadly I couldn’t get in.
But after a few days a lot of other people got to be a Instructor so it’s fairly easy now to become an Instructor now. It really is a great place to refine your skills. I learned from one Instructor a easier way to get head shots from mid to close range.
Basically to become an Instructor you need to be in a room with an Instructor for 30 minutes then the Instructor will get a pop up message saying “User name can Graduate” (something like that). Then the instructor can wait for others to qualify or just start the Graduation Ceremony. I won’t say what it involves, but it’s fun to see for the first time. But even if you don’t get to graduate you at least get to watch. Just be sure to select yes to save after!
The Instructor can choose to promote you or not, so be respectful! This is me as an instructor
I promoted 3 guys to Instructors last night, it was fun. We just chatted and tested out various things. Make each other fart, lol. See pics below
Click on any of the pics in the post to enlarge them.
Join Combat Training
Join a game in which you can receive Combat Training from the host player. Just like with “Join Game” in Free Battle, you can check what kind of game it is before joining. *Your skills during Combat Training will be the same as those set by the instructor.
Notes on Combat Training
LECTURE MODE
In this mode, you will receive various lectures from the instructor. What the lectures are about are decided by the host instructor.
Check the comments when selecting a game, and choose one that you would like to learn more about.Practice Mode
Practice mode comes after lecture mode and gives you a chance to apply what you just learned in a Team Death match. The instructor will be there to guide you along the way.
Graduation
The instructor will decide whether a player deserves to “Graduate” after receiving a certain amount of combat training. If a player has what it takes and shows proper etiquette, then you can graduate them.
“Graduation” is one of the conditions necessary for obtaining the Instructor skill, which allows you to create your own “Combat Training” sessions.
Instructor Skill
To become an instructor and create combat training sessions, you must have the “Instructor Skill”. To earn this skill, you must clear certain conditions. We trust that all of you with the Instructor Skill will raise fine soldiers. Good luck!

When I first heard of LittleBigPlanet for the first time I loved the idea, but wasn’t sure if I wanted it. I’ve bounced back and forth between meh and wow. But now it’s a must have! All the new info lately got my excited for it’s release.
Here is what they have planned for people who pre-order:

The Official “LittleBigPlanet Creator” MiniGuide by Brady Games

LittleBigStickerBook

LittleBigPouch

Exclusive Nariko SackGirl

Exclusive Kratos SackBoy
It’s worth a pre-order just for the Nariko and Kratos
I would assume you would have to pre-order at Gamestop but they haven’t said who you’ll have to pre-order threw just yet.

Like Darrin pointed out in the Shoutbox. The R2 Beta should be available in Qore on August 7th. The beta itself will be available to download in September. But another way to get in is to pre-order the game a Gamestop. I assume how the MGO meta worked.
I’m excited to try out the multiplayer in R2, but I think I’ll go the Gamestop route. I myself haven’t bought any Qore episodes yet. Which way are you going to do it?
More ways to get into Resistance beta than Qore, Europe not excluded

There is a new mode called survival. While in survival mode you can earn Reward Points which can be used to buy gear for your character. You even get a extra character slot with this update. So if you want to create a lady character go for it.
Meryl and Johnny will now be in MGO too. Each have there own unique skills. You can’t manually choose to be them, it will be random just like Snake and the MKII.
Here are the new maps:
Coppertown Conflict / City of Sorrow

Tomb of Tubes / Underground Waterway

Virtuous Vista / South America Power Station

What I would love to see is a Shadow Moses level in MGO
And just in case you didn’t know they recently updated MGO with another game mode a couple weeks ago called Team Sneaking. If your the sneaking team it’s quite a challenge, but very fun. Check it out.
Also if you ever create a game make sure to enable ghost pranks! Good times

I never got any of the previous Call of Duty games because I was sick of all the WWII games. But I loved Call of Duty 4, and CoD5 is built on the same engine as CoD4. The game will be based in World War II, and is much more brutal, see below:
“Also, this is how gritty it is: ‘The opening scene of the first level we are shown is a Japanese commander stubbing a cigarette out in the eye of a prisoner before slitting his throat - the blood splatters and dribbles down the side of the tent you are being held in. He turns towards you to deal out the same treatment but help arrives just in time. Cue a daring level-long escape.’”
It will also have co-op, seems likes that’s a big buzz word this year, which is good. Multiplayer will have vehicles and squads too. There are a lot of shooters coming out later this year / early next. This one is a big maybe for me right now.
CoD5 has co-op, vehicles in multiplayer, CoD4 engine, every format apart from PSP
