This year's E3 was truly one for the books. After the busy week we had last week, we here at QJ.NET decided to do a little digging to look for 25 excellent games under US$ 25 that were released last year in honor of this year's E3. If you just recently acquired your 7th gen console or handheld or if you're just looking for a great game to add in your collection, maybe you can take a look at these games.

It's over. It's done. E3 2009 has come and gone, and the worldwide gaming community is left to sift through the announcements, reveals, videos, hype and promises that came out of the yearly gaming expo this past week.

To make it just a wee bit easier, here are all the E3 2009-related news that graced the QJ.NET pages in the past week. This is quite long, so I'll cut this intro short and get right down to the meat. Hit the jump for the QJ.NET E3 2009 Round-up.

You've heard of the PSP-controlled car, right? Here's another PSP accessory that never quite got off the drawing board: a gun controller accessory for the PSP-1000.

It's been a while, but Raphael has just updated the Motion Driver plugin to version v1.0. Aside from pushing the homebrew out of the beta phase, this latest build carries a new motionUnload function that should come in handy for the users. The rest of the details are available in the full article.

Thanks in large part to Konami's Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Sony is licking some serious PlayStation 3 sales chops. However, the overall leadership remains with Kyoto-based Nintendo as their twin juggernauts Wii and DS posted huge stats again. The official reactions of both companies after the jump.

Mr305 has released a new revision for the Academic Aid Scholastic Suite. This release improves upon the motion driver, adds a stylish effect for the text, and has a separate release for the source code. More on this application after the jump!

The latest NPD sales figures are out, and while it certainly looks like there's going to be a major change in its regularly Nintendo-dominated scenery soon, there's a lot of questions that need to be answered. Thankfully, NPD's own Anita Frazier is here to give us an in-depth view of just what the figures mean. All the details in the full article.

Have you ever tried playing Loco Roco on the PSP? If not, then you're definitely missing some blobs of joy in your life. Yeah, some of you may find it sissy, but really, they have got to be one of the more adorable creatures to land in game land ever.

They're bouncy, they're happy, and I can't get my hands off them. Before it came out on the PSP, the guys here at QJ were already imagining how it would be like on the PS3. Imagine letting those blobs roll down the slopes using the tilt-function via the motion-sensing technology of the SIXAXIS. Yes, that will be really fun. Dizzying, but fun.

That's why this writer just can't contain her joy when we came across this post in Gamespot talking about Loco Roco 2. While it was only a mere mention, along with a couple other titles, actually, it was enough to start the cogs turning in this writer's head. The post did say, after all, that "The awards shown off by Harrison included statuettes for the PlayStation Store games Loco Roco 2..."

So, what are they doing at the PS3 Home trophy room? It could mean a lot of things. Maybe Harrison just has a personal penchant for Loco Roco, maybe it's included in his kid's PS3 titles wish list, maybe they'll be extending the game to the PS3, maybe...

A whole lot of maybes, but if ever they do confirm that the Loco Roco franchise will be expanding their territories to the PS3 shores, then that surely is a reason to celebrate - at least for me. Anyhow, this is all speculations for now. So just keep it posted here for more updates on this bit.
