On yesterday's Activision pre-E3 conference call, Blizzard's Mike Morhaime made his token appearance as the guy from the company who makes all of the money. During the call he revealed that plans were on-track for Starcraft II to be released in 2009. He then went on to comment that this is still subject to change, which could be taken to mean that Starcraft II might be delayed until 2010.

Instead, "Dark Corners" will be only $15 at launch on July 28, because people like you and me complained. Considering the amount of content the DLC brings -- one new campaign chapter and seven new multiplayer maps -- I'd say it's justifiable for the average Gears ... Read more »

Much to no one’s surprise, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and TT Games will be releasing LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 in 2010.

The title is pretty much what you’ve expect, putting players in control of LEGO versions of Hogwart’s usual suspects – Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, along with other characters from the first four books. The action-adventure will allow you to do exciting things like cast spells, mix potions, fly on broomsticks and… attend lessons. That last one sound less exciting, but Harry Potter fans shouldn’t complain too much, as it’ll give them a chance to explore cutesy versions of seeing like Hogwarts castle, Diagon Alley, and more.

No platforms were mentioned in the announc ... Read more »
