A few days before the beginning of the E3, the Mortal Kombat fans have had quite an interesting surprise. There has been a video found on the net and published by the guys from Joystiq that shows around 8 minutes of a live-action scene that makes room for a lot of rumors. Some said it could be a new chapter of the game, some said it could be a new action movie.

The truth is that according to Jeri Ryan, who plays Sonya Blade in the short trailer, the video would have been made in order to sell the new vision of the series to Warner Bros. Perhaps we need to wait the E3 for more information about a new chapter, in any case. We’ll be tuned. In the meantime, enjoy the trailer. Should that become a live-action movie, it looks promising.

Apparently according to a resume for one of Ubisoft’s employees, the next title in the Assassin’s Creed series will be around on 2010. The employee in question is Michael Donnell, Ubisoft Montreal’s 3D animator, who also worked in Splinter Cell: Conviction.

How this resume was leaaked, we don’t know, and we can’t really even be sure if it’s the true deal or a fake, so we’ll label it as a rumor. But could it be that the new Assassin’s Creed title will be the third chapter on the series? We don’t know. So we’ll wait for more info.

After the first rumors about Killzone 3, here are more rumors, this time about the launch date. It seems, in fact, that the third chapter of the saga could be launched during April 2011.

The rumor seems rather believable, as it would mean that the game would be follow the usual two-year gap between one game and its sequel. But it’s just a rumor for now, of course, so we’ll treat it as such until we get official confirmation from Guerilla.

Together with the movie project dedicated to the Prince of Persia saga, a new gaming chapter could be coming, at least it’s what some rumors have been saying lately.

On his Linkedin profile, Marc-Antoine Senecal from Ubisoft Montreal informs that he’s been working on a new Prince of Persa for a few months now, and at the same time, the saga’s creator, Jordan Mechner, has registered the title “Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands” hence protecting it with copyrights.

It could seem, however, that “Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands”, is nothing but the adaptation of the movie that will be coming next year. But… we’ll have to wait and see.

Well, we are glad we put it as a rumor, as it sounded a little too strange to be true, but we’ve found out that the rumors about a possible Twilight MMORPG were, indeed, fake.

By visiting the website www.twilightthevideogame.com, we can figure some things out: it does seem that there’s a game being developed, but definitely not an MMO, but an Academic project that some students, including Brandon Gardner, who created the BrainJunk studios with his friends, but they do have the intentions of sending the completed game to Summit Entertainment.

It’s not an MMO, after all, and it’s definitely not a commercial game, so the rumors can be now considered fake.

Gamekyo has published an article in which they claim rumors that Twilight, the famous book series by Stephenie Meyer, could become an MMORPG.

Besides the image up above, there’s not much known about this. The French gaming site also mentions different classes distributed within the races seen in the books: humans, werewolves and vampires. Of course, if this isn’t just a rumor, we’ll be updating you as soon as more information comes.

We’ll treat it as a rumor for now, as it could be a true error or a new marketing plot from the guys at Electronic Arts, but the official Twitter account has shown a message that announced the development of Command & Conquer 4, with a link to an official communication and all that.

At this point, mistake or not, we think it’s more than appropriate to wait for something more, hoping that the next few hours will bring more explanations to this mystery. Considering it came from the official UK PR twitter site, it’s not that wrong to assume this is official explanation. But we will wait and see.

According to what was reported by Joystiq, it seems that Activision started thinking about the possibility of developing an MMO based on the Call of Duty series. The rumors started after someone heard Robert Kotick asking, during a conference: “What would be the natural evolution of a property like Call of Duty into a massively multiplayer environment — how do you monetize that?”.

Rumors, yes, but we wonder how many fans would jump on a Call of Duty MMO. If you have an opinion on the matter, leave us a comment!

During a press conference, John Pleasants from Electronic Arts has revealed the existance of two new titles not yet announced, even though the rumors had been going around for a while.

The first is Battlefield 3 which seems to be at a good point and in good hands, and not only the guys from DICE are apparently working on the title.

The second should be another Need for Speed, this time developed by the same team that worked on Burnout. We’ll have to wait and see whether these rumors become true.

According to a rumor found on the Cut Scene blog, Atari would be preparing an MMORPG based on the Neveriwnter Nights Franchise and scheduled to launch in the first months of 2011.

The rumor also says that this was reportedly the main reason why Atari was aiming to buy Cryptic Studios last year, who is currently working on Champions Online and Star Trek Online.

Obviously, there are no details about the game, and nothing has been officially confirmed or denied. Of course, a MMO based on NeverWinter Nights would certainly have a good number of fans.
