"EA launched the game in 2008 and is working on the second and third installments." This is the line from Variety's piece on the Dead Space film that got tongues wagging as to whether or not Electronic Arts is indeed concurrently developing parts 2 and 3. Hold off on those speculations till you read the rest of the article after the jump.

For the longest time, Dead Space: Extraction has been known to be exclusive for the Wii. That is now about to change, so it seems, as Electronic Arts teased at the Comic-Con that it is Wiixclusive "right now."

More news popping out of the Comic-Con in San Diego. Activision has announced that Speedball's alter-emo ego, Penance, will be in your roster of heroes in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 (PS3, PSP, PS2, Xbox 360, Wii, DS). More after the jump.

We all know that Ubisoft and Jordan Mechner have been working on a new Prince of Persia video game for the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. Well, apparently that's not the only thing Mechner's been busy with. At this year's San Diego Comic-con he revealed that he is currently working on a follow-up to Karateka. More information on this can be found in the full article.

Over at New York Comic Con, a Shigeru Miyamoto press conference generated a lot of juicy rumors just by being mum. A new Zelda game and online support for Wii Fit? Head over the full article to see for yourself if these rumors have legs or not.

When you've got a powerful suit of armor, what do you with it? Why, you use it, of course. In the case of the Iron Man video game, that would mean using it against tanks, missiles, fighter jets and what not. Sega's captured it on video, too. Turn to the full article after the jump for some high-flying armored action.

The GDC may be over, but across the street, the Wondercon is just starting. Oh, and but there are goodies as well over there. Zentendo stumbled upon Capcom's booth and found the controls for Okami on the Wii, as well as a playable demo. To learn more, just click on full article.

Whether you like video game-based movies or not, "Resident Evil: Extinction" is well on its way. September 21 is right around the corner, and we can expect aggressive marketing before the fated day comes. To promote the movie, Sony unleashed a hot BMW motorcycle at Comic-con.

Because of the "Zombie Violence" tag, let's just call it that. The decals look sweet and all, the polish is perfect, and the whole thing looks like a beast, but we'd sell a dozen Ducati to the junkyard just to get a bike with Resident Evil on it. Watching the movie is an entirely different issue.

 

There were over 60 games playable in the San Diego Comic Con much to the delight of gamers who attended. While some of the video games were still behind closed doors, only unveiled to people from the press, one of the games available to the public drew quite a bit of attention. We're talking about Capcom's Zack and Wiki: Quest for Barbados.

The game was generally enjoyed by those who played it, judging from the lines behind the two stations where they featured it. The booth also happened to be giving out stickers, which was promptly looted by those visiting the booth. IGN noted that they heard multiple people mention "Oh, that's the 'Zack & Wiki' game!" as well as permutations of that statement. That kind of recognition from people is pretty solid proof of the game's rising popularity.

We can openly say that the first public unveiling San Diego Comic-Con show of Zack and Wiki: Quest for Barbados was a success. The challenge now would be for Capcom to sustain this wave of interest until its launch?

You gotta hand it to Square Enix. When it comes to drawing power and fan devotion, they're right in on the A-List. In this year's Comic-Con, their gear and memorabilia are selling like crazy. Check out the loot.

The most popular franchises that the revered Japanese firm are all represented. Knights of the Round summon figures, Cactuar plush dolls, trading cards, Kingdom Hearts figures and many more are displayed in the booth and interested buyers seem not to mind the price tags. These are, after all, items that can't be found elsewhere.

If you're low on budget, looking around the place and drooling over the merchandise would probably suffice. When will we see SOLDIER uniforms going on retail? We don't know but we'll be ready when they come.
