Leipzig's over and the Tokyo Game Show won't be till October. But that doesn't mean there won't be any other conferences around to satisfy ever-curious gamers' appetites. And this time, we won't even have to fly
overseas. The Austin Game Developers Conferences is coming up next, and they've added in a nice touch to this year's event.

Yeah, it sucks when you see something you like on the
PlayStation Network but you don't have a credit card to top up your online wallet. Don't worry too much, though.
GameStop may
not be getting its share of PSN cards until next year, but PS3 owners will be able to get the cards from three more retail outlets starting next month. More in the full article.

Last month, Sony announced that they've sold about 10 million PSP units
to Japanese retail. That figure, however, doesn't account for actual sales from the consumer. Today, we find out that that number has been breached. The PSP in its entire lifetime in
Japan has indeed sold over 10 million units - and hey!, ever wondered the all-time best selling titles are in Japan? Hit the jump for lots of big numbers!

After the Federal Trade Commission gave its blessing to continue merger negotiations,
Electronic Arts and
Take-Two Interactive have finally begun its closed door meeting regarding the deal. However, it seems that both parties will be rather tight-lipped regarding the details of the meeting. You can read a statement released by EA regarding their "secret negotiations" in our full article.

Ryan Payton has just revealed that he's leaving Kojima Productions. After working on
MGS Portable Ops and
Metal Gear Solid 4, this guy has clearly made a lasting footprint in the history of video game development. Leaving is always a heartbreaking thing, and though he would have been a shoe-in for development on
the so-called MGS5 (which he seems to have already confirmed, to a degree), Payton will be taking it easy for now. Learn more in the full article.

"
Ready for GAME time!" Tokyo Game Show 2008's theme is definitely one that can get your heart pumping. I know something else that might get your heart pumping: the full list of exhibitors to be present in this year's gaming event at Tokyo. Knowing the exhibitors at TGS 2008 might give a hint as to what games we can probably expect on the show floor (and knowing what games can, in turn, give us a hint as to what types of boothbabe cosplays we might expect to see too). Check out the huge list in the full article!

Looks like
Metal Gear creator
Hideo Kojima might be back for the next game in the series after all. It's not a solid "I'll be back" line, but his remarks in a recent interview are promising. Details in the full article.

This year's Games Convention at
Leipzig was
a sure fire success. And though some of you might not think that the same could be said about E3, GC 2009 has already been scheduled. Via press release, we find out that this year's event has set records above and beyond what GC 2007 had, and reception from the masses has definitely shown a good sign that the video games industry is booming more than it used to.

A fresh batch of screens from
Famitsu have rolled by over the weekend, showing some footage of
Final Fantasy Agito XIII for the PSP. Finally! Here we see a group of students from the Academy - all of them with that red scarf that seems to be all the rave in the
Agito world these days. And poor ol' Odin, all scarf-less and dejected. No wonder he's always angry.

If you really heart card based tactical espionage action this little tidbit could be right up you alley. If you're not into card based tactical espionage action, you should still pay attention because these words come from the lips of Hideo "
MGS4" Kojima.
Apparently the Kojima's totally open to the idea of seeing the PSP exclusive
Metal Gear Ac!d series show up on the
PlayStation Network. But in what for form? Click on and all shall be revealed.
