A Montreal announced today that a sequel to Army of Two is in the works for Winter 2009. Titled Army of Two: The 40th Day, the fist-bumping tag team Salem and Rios return to blaze a path through a choatic, devastated Shanghai, China.

Thursday night Blue Omega showed off their vertically bent steampunk shooter, Damnation, to the press at Bourbon and Branch in San Francisco. After loitering a bit in a pseudo-secret side room (the venue is prohibition-era themed) we settled in to the Xbox 360 system-link set-up in a semi-adjoining back room, where the fuse promptly blew…

In our last E3 podcast, we talked about how shooting in and out of cover is definitely in this year.

Recently I got my hands on Jason Bourne… yum! Oh wait, I mean… well, you’ll get to try yourself when the demo hits the Xbox Live Marketplace and Playstation Store next month. In the meantime, we’ll give you some insight into what it’s like handling a super assassin in The Bourne Conspiracy.

A new game in the DonPachi series is headed for Japan. The Amusement Machine Operators’ Union show in Japan is generally a fairly low-key event here in the West. This year was host to the first playable appearance of Street Fighter 4. You’ve heard about that, but what did you miss?
