The September 2008 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly features it's monthly rumor section providing us with more juicy inside information
• Banjo Kazooie and Tooie for XBLA will incorporate Stop N' Swap.
• Konami bringing back a retro classic in 2D. Not Bucky O' Hare or Biker Mice From Mars.
• More Star Wars characters will come to Soul Calibur IV as downloadable content.
• LocoRoco 2 and Patapon 2. Q Entertainment making adventure game that is not a sequel to NNN.
• Halo Wars, Fable 2, and Call of Duty: World at War will not make it out in 2008.
• Namco are bringing back Dead to Rights.
• Bungie are developing multiplatform and PLAYSTATION 3 games.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Well this is either just plain fake or egm arent very well informed even for rumours
-Banjo was confirmed to come to xbla at E3
-Peter M said Fable 2 was "completed" at E3 so why woulnt it come out in 08
