At the conclusion of Game Connect: Asia Pacific, the Game Developer's Association of Australia awarded the best game developers from Australia and New Zealand.

As Medieval II took home the most awards last year, Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords (DS, PSP) swept up this year's awards with five awards, including Best Game.

(Editor's Note: We're cooking up something specially hot for you guys with our weekly QuickJump QuickPeek! Some of you may have already noticed that this current issue - the 13th issue, no less! - has rolled out early! Why? It's because we're gearing up for a QuickJump QuickPeek TGS 2007 Special Edition once the festivities are done! So while we wait for that, we're giving you this Early Edition that focuses on other news that have cropped up during the week!)

It's Tokyo Game Show week! And even though it's the 13th issue of QuickJump QuickPeek, it's anything but riddled with bad luck! This "Early Edition" will be focusing on the non-TGS updates that have surfaced through the week, because really, the TGS might be one heck of a show stopper on its own (that's why it's getting its own QuickPeek Edition all to itself), but the days building up to the trade show saw a couple of astounding news as well. Almost every gaming platform has had some rather leaky business to deal with, and we're not letting the taps run dry.

Grab your pirate accent and sing your favorite shanty; there are more reasons to celebrate than just Talk Like a Pirate Day! Yaaarrr!

Fans of the Right Hand of Doom heads up! We've got some new cool assets for Hellboy (PS3, 360, PSP) courtesy of developer Krome Studios and publisher Konami. Take note that the artwork are for all platforms while the screenshots are exclusive for the PlayStation 3.

Anyway, Hellboy is very much based on the movie, unlike the other video game Hellboy: Asylum Seeker that was released on the original PlayStation (PSOne) and Games for Windows (PC) platforms by Cryo Interactive. After all, movie director Guillermo del Toro is very much involved in the new title.

Aside from having Hellboy himself beating up the bad guys with his big stone hand or gun Samaritan, fans will also get some action from other characters like Liz Sherman and Abe Sapien. If you want to know more, you can always check out our previous reports or QJ.Net's exclusive interview with game producer Paul Armatta.

Hellboy will be released on all platforms sometime in Q3 2007.
