If you didn’t make it into the beta last year, don’t worry. Real Time worlds is sending out more beta entries. So hopefully you can make it in this time.

Sign up here for a chance into the beta.

Nintendo have updated their official Japanese website for Mistwalker’s soon to be released RPG game : The Last Story with some very nice concept artwork.
Check it out and let us know what you think of it. Unfortunately unless you can read Japanese the rest of the website doesn’t make any sense but at least fans of Mistwalker Studios can see original concept artwork for the game and when that happens we all know that game isn’t too far away.

MW2 Community Night – How it’s going to work
Hi all,
Just a post on how the community night is going to work TONIGHT.
We’ve had an amazing response to the night, we all have full friends lists, so am thinking about 200 odd people want to play. Whether they show up is a different story.
We are going to setup a private room, which can hold 18 people. With the 4 of us from Capsule Computers, we can have another 14 people. So those people who did send friends requests, look out for our names, when a spot is free, join the session.
After you have played a few/couple of games, can you leave the room so someone else can join in. We want to give everyone a chance to play and everyone a chance to win a prize. Sound fair?
Please don’t send us a message asking when you can join, I don’t want to spend half the night reading messages – I will read them, but not during the game and may not reply.
About the prizes – don’t ask about them all night please – they are an added extra. We are going to be picking people randomly at the end of the night and we will be in contact with you. We will also put a post on the website once we have the list.
So, see you all, or most of you after 8pm tonight!

Sports Champions Dev Diary
Move for the PS3 is coming, and one of the first games coming out that uses move is Sports Champions. The Dev Diary above discusses it.
Some key notes from the video:
- 2 move controllers are being used, does that mean you have to buy a second one just to play some games?
- It’s like playing a 3d game, you must picture the person in front of you as actually being there.
- That Sword fighting games seems like a lot of fun, but the controller can pick up depth and speed, but how much exactly?
Ever notice how all demonstration videos are in big empty rooms?
What if my cat or dog walked in front of the camera? “No kitty! don’t play with the camera!”
