A teaser site is up for a “NEW GAME” by Square Enix with few clues other than a futuristic city and a quote from John F. Kennedy. It reads, “The world is very different now. For a man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life.”

Part of the reason is Magnacarta 2 bares little resemblance to its predecessor. Yoshihisa Kanesaka a key member of the Banpresto division tells us and explains how Magnacarta 2 connects with Magna Carta: Crimson Stigmata.

Online play is half of the White Knight Chronicles experience, but in Japan you can only communicate with other players by typing messages. Imagine trying to type “HEAL ME!” while evading a giant troll foot from squishing you. The good news is the North American version may have voice chat.

If you have a PlayStation 3 and a US account you can download a demo of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 on the PlayStation Store now. The file clocks in at 198MB and gives you access to six characters for offline multiplayer play only.

Nintendo’s streaming video and coupon dispensing houseplant program, Wii no Ma (Wii’s Room), launched in Japan today. I downloaded it and after I set up my room drama star Tokito Saburo automatically stopped by to visit.

The Munchables is like the son of Pac-Man and Katamari Damacy. You control a tadpole-like creature that gobbles up aliens… space pirates that look like food. At Namco Bandai’s editor’s day I gave the quirky game a go.

Katamari Tribute will come out in North America this fall under the name Katamari Forever. The “tribute” part in the Japanese title is appropriate since Katamari Forever takes levels from the previous games and remixes them.

This past month Hudson revived Adventure Island with a new WiiWare game. According to the online rankings Adventure Island: The Beginning might not be selling well. After being out in Europe for almost a week only 54 people are on the leaderboards.

The first shooting mission of The Last Bullet takes place in a fair. Karin grabs a rifle and tries to shoot a prize. As a little Easter Egg, one of the prizes is a “QS”.

You’ve seen the Japanese trailer of Magnacarta 2. Now watch the US trailer and sample the English voice acting.

Square Enix opened a site for Final Fantasy IV: The After Years and the product information section caught my attention. See the number of players? It says 1-4.

We’ve been following Magnacarta 2 forever and its coming to North America soon. At their Editor’s day Namco Bandai announced the Xbox 360 exclusive RPG will come out here in “Q3 2009″. Reasonable turnaround time considering Magnacarta 2 comes out in Japan in August.

Namco Bandai saved Tekken 6 news as their presentation finale. After a Tekken 6 trailer flashed Katsuhiro Harada, Executive Producer, took the stage and said a few works. Three of which were “console specific content.”

Namco Bandai is far from done with the Naruto license. Naruto Shippuden Legends: Akatsuki Rising brings the Rescue Gaara Arc to the PSP this fall. Unlike the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja series this is not a fighting game. It’s an adventure game.
