The good news keeps coming from Mistwalker for Xbox 360 owners who happen to love RPGs: Blue Dragon, the Sakaguchi-Toriyama-Uematsu lovechild that the entire staff has been drooling over for weeks, will see an international demo July 20th on XBLA, according to Dengeki Online.

The demo packs a portly 1.1 GB, and will clock in at about 2 hours, which should be plenty of time to dry those tears of gratitude. Also, by playing with your consoles language settings, it appears that you can play the demo using a multitude of voice-over/subtitle combinations. I, for one, would suggest Japanese audio and Bantu subtitles. Even better, you won't have to impersonate a Japanese pizzeria to get it. Such is the pleasure of international demos.

No matter what language you choose, don't waste too much time -- the demo will be gone by August 3rd, leaving you just a few short days before Blue Dragon hits shelves on the 28th (or the 24th if you're (un)lucky enough to live in the PAL region).

Maybe I'll be lucky enough and have my 360 back by then, but I highly doubt it.

Created just for Zune owners.

I really wish I could get it here. Maybe I can once I move to the MA area....

GamePro: Will Metroid Prime 3 have any online modes?

Michael Kelbeugh:: No. It's something we talked about early on, but we only have so many resources. We opted to devote those resources to making a better single-player experience.

Now this sucks, but it wasn't totally unexpected.

REDMOND, Wash., July 2, 2007 – What do you get when you combine the world's best-selling video game system, the Nintendo DS™, with one of Nintendo's best-loved franchises, Zelda?

Great news! I can't wait to play this. I should be finished Twilight Princess by then. And in related News, I got a Wii yesterday so now I can catch up on all the Nintendo stuff I've been missing for almost a full year.

At least I'm not in the same boat at this guy. 11 360's that have failed him, thats just too many. I think that I would be doing more then just having Microsoft repair/replace them, I'd have given up on gaming.
