After getting a brief backgrounder on Vogster Entertainment's Unbound Saga, it's time to see how much of a comic-book feel does this comic book PSP brawler actually have. Not to worry, we've got fresh new screenshots for you to inspect. Commence at the full article.

Answering an earnings call, GameStop exec David W. Carlson reveals the release of four major titles by October and November. Noting that GameStop is a US retailer, the only conclusion we can make out of the info is that the release margins are for the US, and we can only speculate on how it's gonna be for other regions. More info after the jump.

I know Sony's been really heavy on creativity lately, what with them dishing out games like Flower, Patapon, and Loco Roco, but I'm still left wondering just what they have planned this time. A trademark filing has revealed that they have a new game titled Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman!

No, really. That's the title.

For once, Grand Theft Auto didn't make it into a list of things not to buy your kids - specifically, the TOADY (Toys Oppressive and Destructive to Young Children). So what did make the list? Lego Batman.

Say what?

You've got the Star Wars franchise, Batman, and Indiana Jones - all of them getting their own multiplatform Lego treatment for the past few years. And just last month, talks of a Harry Potter Lego ran rampant, with Warner giving a "no comment" response to the rumors. Now, it's been revealed that, whether or not Traveller's Tales really is Lego-fying Hogwarts, it definitely won't happen next year. Meanwhile, they might just throw us a new (err, newly recycled?) Lego game instead.

What are the lowly denizens of QJ looking forward to in 2009? We highlight the games coming next year (hopefully) that get us all hot under the collar.

Do you agree? Think we're raving loonies? Got suggestions of your own? Sally forth good readers, and let us know what you think.

Fable 2 took a hit on the the UK charts last week as Fallout 3 (PS3, Xbox 360, PC) launched in the UK last October 31st. The post apocalyptic action RPG took the top spot as it sold more copies in two days than all the games in the franchise combined. See the software charts for week ending November 1 in the full article.

In its second week running, FIFA 09 still manages to keep its score. Electronic Arts' football game retains the top spot in Chart Track UK's weekly sales ranking for software. Last week's seconder, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, looses its grip and slides down to fourth place, thus giving rise to the caped crusader. Lego Batman: The Video Game debuts this week in second place.
