@LordThayer: You must be talking about Dust: An Elysian Tail. It hasn't come out yet, but last I heard, it won Microsoft's Dream, Build, Play contest, which means that its guaranteed to become an XBLA game some time in the future. I've included the trailer just to make extra sure that its the game you're talking…

@WorldGreatest Waiting for Heavy Rain: You mean you can't tell that the old group of pics are from pre-rendered trailers and the new ones are in-game?

I hope to hear about a downloadable FFXIII demo for XBL and PSN. I also hope to hear about Mistwalker's next game, which is hopefully Lost Odyssey 2. Besides that, I wouldn't mind seeing a trailer for MGS: Rising.

@ittekimasu: You'd still be getting it a few months after the Japanese version is released, anyways.

@WorldGreatest Waiting for Heavy Rain: How so? Even if it wasn't a multi-platform game, it still wouldn't be released in North America and Europe until AFTER the Japanese release.

@RawSteelUT: What about Valkyria Chronicles? I haven't played it (I don't have a PS3), but I don't remember anyone complaining about any problems it might have had.

@Ldubbz: Better looking that GoW 3? I'm no PS3 fanboy (I don't even have a PS3), but that seems a bit hard to believe.

@brass2themax: It's hilarious to see people getting excited to get a game a year after its initial release.

@PoweredByHentai: Did you not read the last sentence of my post?

@Desfunk: Outside of Japan, how many PS3 owners gave a damn about Valkyria Chronicles, Enchanted Arms, and Eternal Sonata? I'm talking about the average PS3 owner, not Kotakuites who own a PS3.

@Adhominem: Would you kindly refrain from making plot twist references?

Why is Splinter Cell mentioned? Its not coming out this year.

There's some potential for that video to be turned into a spoof video. For example, the spoof video would show Kathie Lee walking up to Jennie Garth and maybe slapping her with the guitar handle. After (or maybe alternatively), she could start shooting bullets out of the guitar a la "Once Upon a Time in Mexico".

"Any guesses on what will be announced?"

Not I. Its not just because it only has 3 games that I'm interested in (GOW3, MGS4, LBP), but also because I tend to pretty much ignore any consoles that I buy after already having bought one. For example, last gen I bought an Xbox and PS2 and I played on my Xbox way more often. This gen, I have a 360 and a Wii and I…

@BubbleF**kingBuddy: Next-gen blogging doesn't start until Kotaku says so.

@Etheris: "Avatar" and "user icon" are listed as two separate things, though.

@potatojenkins: We last met at the GameFAQs estate...wasn't it? Okay, we didn't meet, but you're otisanime from GameFAQs, right?

@Strom Thurmond: Yeah, the Avatar Marketplace is the biggest change for the August update, but they also add a bunch of smaller things, too, like rating XBL Marketplace items and being able to clear your cache without a secret code.

@Orionsaint Other than Games on Demand, we weren't promised any of the rest, at least not for this update. That will happen in the next update in the fall. Also, the Games on Demand service is up, its just that there's no 360 games added to it yet, though I'm sure they'll be added once the update is made available to…
