I think it has been a steady, varied week with new game announcements, some pretty stunning new trailers and, my highlight, a live chat with the always entertaining Evolution Studios. For the next two weeks I will be working behind the scenes, organising the gamescom schedule, but you can still expect a healthy stream of posts and some experimental stuff while I fumble my way into this new job.

I am very hyped for DC Universe now, always dreamed of having superhuman powers, and now i can

Yes, Dead Nation looks special. It’s being made by the same developer as Super Stardust HD.

Another good week.
Hi James,
Any word on when we will hear anything about our Little Big Planet Collectors Edition?
Secondly is there a Sony Gamescom Conference this year? If there is I need to know that day it is on so I can book a day off.

I saw that the US announced theirs so I’ll ask on Monday if we have anything to announce for Europe. The SCEE press conference is on Tuesday August 17 but I don’t know at what time yet. I’ll be doing a live blog on here, no doubt.

Will eu psn plus be getting any sort of upgrades James to make it fairer and on par with the vast amount the u.s get. I have a few very annoyed mates who have it but don’t use forums etc

Someone said in the comments on one post last week (perhaps the one announcing you’re new job) that we’d get a post about improvements coming to the Blog this week, what happened to that? I was really looking forward to it

That’s scheduled in for tomorrow. This week we managed to fix videos on the PS3 browser and we’ll be announcing a few more additions to the blog tomorrow.

Rule number one of blogging appears to be ‘don’t make promises’… the new stuff for the blog doesn’t appear to be ready so I won’t be introducing it today.
