Supreme Commander 2 has been officially confirmed for a spring 2010 release. It’s the next instalment in Square Enix’ Supreme Commander series, and is to be set 25 years further into the future.

SupCom 2 will feature numerous enhancements, and Square Enix will be hoping to impress the masses when this one lands for the PC and Xbox 360 platforms in the first quarter of 2010.

In order to learn more information about SupCom 2, take a trip to the official website.

The people at VGChartz published a snapshot of a fake ad found in the manual of Episodes from Liberty City, look at the bottom corner, and the torn bit looks to be some mountains. Could be where we’re heading next in the GTA saga. Also check out the lil red stamp, could be a March release date, which year, we don’t know!

As a long time fan of the Sports Interactive series, I always look forward to playing the latest Football Manager games when released. Football Manager 2010 was no different, and when the FM2010 Demo was released I was very excited to start playing as my team of choice, Oxford United. It didn’t take me too long at all to get to January in the game, and having now started a new demo game as Manchester City; I feel that the time has come to provide my first thoughts on Football Manager 2010.

The first thing that strikes you about Football Manager 2010 when you start playing is the new interface. For a number of years now the Football Manager look has remained pretty consistent, the interface has now been completely revamped however and looks very impressive for it. I must admit that I had got very used to the old interface, and when I first played FM2010 the new look therefore came as quite a shock; it didn’t take me long to get used to the new interface however, and I do in fact feel now that it has been improved, and Sports Interactive has made the game even stronger in this area.

When you sign a new player in FM2010 you can now choose to hold a press conference, and this is a very cool feature to have been added to the game. Each year Sports Interactive just keeps making the game better, and this is definitely one of the new features that I’ve been incredibly impressed with having played the demo.

The 3D match engine looks to have been improved, and in addition to this, crowds have been added to enhance the game’s realism. One thing I have picked up on about the FM2010 Demo crowds is that when managing Oxford United none of the fans wore yellow shirts, and yet managing Manchester City there are plenty of sky blue shirts in the crowd (and plenty of shirts in the crowd for the opposition side also). Not really sure why the Oxford fans don’t wear shirts and yet fans from the Football League do but there you go; maybe this is something that will be resolved for when the full game is released. It would also be a nice touch if every in-game stadium was an accurate representation of the real life stadium, one step at a time though I guess, and I suppose it’s not too bad a situation when your home ground is given four sides rather than its real number of three.

There are some very interesting new features with Football Manager 2010, small tweaks that have made my favourite football management sim even greater, and once again Sports Interactive appears to have put together a very impressive game. It’s easy to shout touchline instructions in the middle of a match, the game seems more fun than ever to play, and overall here I definitely feel that some very positive tweaks and changes have occurred.

The initial signs are strong with Football Manager 2010, and I now can’t wait to play the full-game when it’s released. Football Manager 2010 is a game that I can most definitely see myself spending many happy hours playing over the coming weeks and months.

Well, not so long ago Song released a Slim-line PS3 and announced a 250GB, so Microsoft, bravely followed suit and (after a short leak on German Amazon) announced they would also be releasing a 250GB console. Well, there has been no confirmation if there will be any asthetic changes to the console, but what we do know, is this new console will be using the newest “Jasper” chip set, designed specifically to prevent RROD, so buy this new one when it comes out (at around £220) and you are almost confirmed that this console won’t get RROD. On the other hand, who the heck is gonna need all that memory? If you do need the memory or are just buying the console because it’s something new and shiny, I reckon it’d be a safe investment.

Well, with the release of this game this week (Friday in the UK) I thought it fitting to bring you all up to speed with it. This game comes as a add on bought through Xbox Live or on a disc along with The Lost and Damned (a pervious GTA add- on) just as an FYI for those of you who are going to go out and buy GTA:IV along with the add-on disc, there is no need (that is if you haven’t bought GTA:IV already.)

Pretty cool I think, anyway, the game. This add-on sees the return of the infamous parachute, something that was missing from GTA:IV. A welcome return for this frankly brilliant feature, the chute was a big thing in San Andreas letting you hop out of copters and plummet to the ground or jump off a huge building.

Rockstar have been keeping their cards rather close to their chests on this one so not much news or rumors have been floating about (similar to that of Modern Warfare 2) I’ll be getting a review to you guys as soon as I can.

Radio 1 has a very fun facing game up at the moment called FTW (Fastest Time Wins), where you can race as one of five characters; Fearne Cotton, Scott Mills, Zane Lowe, Chris Moyles, or Greg James.

With a choice of three different race tracks, Rush Hour, Studio Dash, and The Big Weekend, you also get to decide who you wish to race against and have to try and beat their time. When your racer of choice is on air you’ll get a speed boost which will help you achieve a faster time, and if you are able to beat your competitor then you’ll get to play the bonus game.

Radio 1’s FTW game is incredibly addictive, but also happens to be very fun, and if you’ve got a minute or two to spare then I definitely recommend having a few games.

Click here to play the game now, and see if you can beat my best score of 32.75 seconds (I always seem to make at least one minor error on the track so I’m sure that plenty of you will be able to beat me).

Championship Manager 2010 is to become available to Mac users as of November 13th, courtesy of leading Mac developers Virtual Programming. The game has been available to PC users since September 11th, Mac users are soon to have access to the football management sim also however, complete with the same features as its popular PC counterpart.

Mac gamers have been missing out on the fun for the last six weeks, thankfully that will soon change though, and I’m sure there will be many Mac users across Europe getting stuck in to Championship Manager 2010 come mid-November.

The game is to have an SRRP of £29.95, and will be available across Europe from November 13th in selected retail stores and online.

Having thought long and hard about a name for the new PlayStation motion controller; Sony is still yet to come up with something suitable, and a final decision has not yet been made.

A name needs to be chosen that will appeal not just to hardcore gamers, but to casual gamers also, and a final decision on the name is therefore taking longer than had been expected.

The Sony motion controller was officially unveiled and demonstrated at E3 back in June, and is currently all set to hit the shelves in spring 2010.
