Korg DS-10, Populous DS are gold

That’s rights, kids - KORG DS-10 is now gold - you can soon make sweet, sweet music - real music, none of this rhythm game malarkey - with your DS. The “game” is real, full-on music creation software, with a 6-track/16-step sequencer and high-quality samples. Another cool feature - up to 8 DS’ running the title can be linked via wi-fi for musical exchanges or to play together. Think about it - DS concerts. I’m sold.
If you’d rather play god than play music, XSEED has also announced that Populous DS has gone gold. Wireless multiplayer is the number one reason to play this classic oldie again. Both games are coming to retail quite soon (November 4, 2008 for KORG and November 11, 2008 for Populous DS). KORG will set you back $39.99 - a small price to pay for a genuine synthesizer, while Populous carries the usual $29.99 DS price.
I’m seriously excited for the possibilities of KORG. If 2008 is the year of user-generated content, then this (and obviously,LittleBigPlanet) are among the greatest examples of what can be done with the videogame media.

Marvelous and XSeed bring us Retro Game Challenge
A while back in Japan, a truly awesome DS game was released. It was called Game Center CX, and was inspired by a Japanese tv show of the same name. It involved fake NES (Famicom) games that players would have to reach certain goals in. After you achieved those goals, you could play full versions of those games, or read in-game magazines to find secrets about those games.
Now, Marvelous and Entertainment and XSEED have announced that they will be bringing this intriguing game to the DS as Retro Game Challenge It will be in stores before the end of 2008. So this holiday season, you’ll be able to play a bunch of great, retro games that never really existed. Among the games are shoot’em ups, an RPG, action games and a racing game.
Little King’s Story needs works of art - fan art

Game art contests are fairly common, but they seldom have rewards like the Little King’s Story art contest. The art contest for the Marvelous Entertainment and XSeed game will have 100 winners, and the winning pieces of art will appear in the game, which will be released Q4 2008.
See, the contest asks people to draw an Unidentified Mysterious Animal (UMA). The best one will be created as an exclusive character for the NA release of the game, and the other pictures will appear in the game’s art museum as masterpieces. The contest ends August 1, 2008, so start drawing.
