Brier Dudley from Seattle Times has exchanged a few words with the guys from Bungie, and managed to retrieve a bunch of new information about Halo 3 ODST and Halo Reach, the two first projects from the developing company after the separation from Microsoft Game Studios.

During the long interview, Bungie reassures that the ODST will be the least linear chapter on the Halo series, due to the main protagonist and the recognition squad that he will need to be part of. With Halo Reach, instead, things are interesting, to say the least: even without giving too much information, due to the initial stages on the project, Bungie’s president, Harold Ryan has said it is almost confirmed that the new Halo chapter will be possible to be played using the motion-sensitive camera shown during the last E3, together with Project Natal.

It seems that Bungie is willing to change route a bit with the Halo series, and it seems that ODST and Reach will offer a huge transformation to the classic trilogy that ended with Master Chief’s “death”.

If StarCraft II has been delayed for a year, arriving at six years of development, World of Warcraft is to blame. Rob Pardo, Blizzard’s vice-president, has declared that most of the design team had been shifted to World of Warcraft for a year in order to finish the game.

Oh well, the good thing is that now we know that StarCraft II is somewhat near, although the launch date is still a mystery: there are those that say it will come this Autumn, and those who don’t think it’ll be around before next year. The beta will definitely be arriving this year, so at least a consolation prize for fans.

Now we’ll leave you to the videos! Enjoy!

The move by Infinity Ward and Activision that removed the Call of Duty label from Modern Warfare 2 (which is a direct sequel of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare) could cost them 20% less sales. It’s what the OXM analysts have revealed to Gamasutra.

The number comes from a field research, where a number of videogamers have been asked if they had heard of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, and then repeating the same question using only Modern Warfare 2. The affirmative questions would have gone from 40% to 20%, and the analysts apply that percentage to the game sales as well.

Whether the game has or doesn’t have the Call of Duty prefix, it is certainly one of the most awaited titles on the season, and it will arrive on stores the next November 10th, for PC, PlayStation 3 and XBox 360.

Polyphony Digital has released a few new images for the highly-awaited portable version of Gran Turismo. The new images show the Ferrari Enzo and the Nissan GTR in what seems the initial CG movie in the game. In fact, the great quality on these screenshots, compared to the first images seen during the E3 2009 somewhat confirm this theory.

In any case, Gran Turismo PSP will be launched on October 1st, together with the PSPgo. Enjoy the images!
