The Weekly Recap (August 1st-7th)
This Week OK, yeah, I’m real late on this one! Sorry folks! Since I still have to do last week’s after this one, I’m gong to skip out on adding the links to this part of the post, but I will still show off the highlights. The Arkham Asylum sequel has finally been named, Geurilla is supposedly working on a new IP, PlayStation Plus has gone bi-weekly, we finally saw some screens for Heavy Rain on the Move, we saw what the European version of Gran Turismo 5 Special Edition will include, as well as downloadable cars for the Collector’s Edition (unless the two are the same). We saw a cool video for a level created in LittleBigPlanet, as well as a story trailer for LBP2. The Uncharted movie was delayed, Oly showed us the 24 hour RDR comic, and we saw a ridiculous setup for a remote controlled WipeOut track. Be sure to read everything else in the recap, seeing as we had a total of 30 articles for that week alone. Community News First off, double points in the forum has been over for a while now. Tosh disabled the PM feature in the forum (so we will only be using the Community PM feature). The Global Site Activity is now available to see on Twitter . Members of the forums can now buy and sell/trade games on there, so you can always check into that if you want to trade for something, etc. 30 Articles // 5 QuickNews Contributor of the Week Ace – 10 Entries QuickNews Contributor of the Week Luke – 3 Entries Most Liked LOKO117 – Flower Power and Games You Will Never Platinum – 5 Likes Most Comments LOKO117 – Games You Will Never Platinum – 28 Comments Gaming News Angry Birds On The PS3 & PSP Madagasca – August 4th Crysis 2 and Socom 4 Skipping 2010 Sakinah – August 4th The Bat is Back!

I still have another one in the works after this, so bear with me!
