Unlike other blogs, we're not in the habit of creating another new post for every single bit of news. For starters, we can't be arsed, but we reckon it's easier for our readers to keep all related news together. So, for the day ahead, we'll be updating this single post will all the news from the conferences and any gossip we can wrangle out of half-drunk PR types.
Latest updates will be at the top. We do plan to run a liveblog of the Sony Conference, but we'll see how that goes. In the meantime, check out our earlier prediction post, and settle back for a day of fun and games. Important events that we'll be covering are the EA Conference at 8AM GMT, the Konami one at 9AM GMT, Ubisoft's at 10AM, Activision's at 1PM and Sony's at 4PM, but we'll see how it goes. We'll try to avoid the usual 'liveblog-crap' that is mostly fluff, and just cut to the news.
Note that this is all via our 'b-team' over in Germany, readers, so don't expect the usual wit and bleeding-edge reporting you'd normally get from us - *insert wink* - but as ever, your comments throughout the day are welcome.

Ubisoft's modern-day tactical shooter locked in for August 21 release on Sony's systems.
At his core, Sean Kent is a multi-faceted and unapologetically unique personality, a strange hybrid that?s equally adept waxing intellectual about the pratfalls of our economic system and cheekily ribbing Southern Nascar enthusiasts. He is one of the last members of a dying breed: the stand-up comedian who would rather tour forty weeks a year than scrounge out bit rolls on film. Oh, and did I mention he?s a hell of a nice guy.

In deep underground laboratories around the globe, a high-tech race is on to spot dark matter, the invisible cosmic glue that's believed to keep galaxies from spinning apart. Whoever discovers the nature of dark matter would solve one of modern science's greatest mysteries and be a shoo-in for the Nobel Prize. Yet it's more than just a brainy exercise.

Oh boy, another patent lawsuit filed in that litigious folly called the
Texas court system. This time, the suit pits Parallel Processing Corporation of Newport Beach, California against that
legal whipping boy, Sony. PPC alleges that Sony's
Cell processor -- the horsepower inside the
PS3 -- violates a patent for "synchronized parallel processing with shared memory." Filed on July 26th, the five-page complaint by PPC states that Sony's actions are causing "irreparable harm and monetary damage" to the company and are therefore seeking the usual: compensation for damages (with interest) as well as the impounding and destruction of all Sony products infringing on the patent. Good times.

"Several hours ago, a Nintendo Power cover surfaced on the popular gaming forum Neogaf. It's cover clearly stated that the issue would reveal information on a new Sega IP titled "Sonic & The Black Knight", however a few sites began to doubt legitimacy.
Various Photoshop "investigators" went to work hoping to expose the cover as a fake. I decided to go a different route and check to see if SEGA registered the domain name.
It turns out that they most certainly did register sonicandtheblacknight.com on what appears to be July 2, 2008. Below is the domain information extracted directly from the Japan Whois database. "
