“I think that’s a great opportunity. Certainly, we’ve done it with ‘Lord of the Rings.’ We’ve extended beyond the movies there. We did it with James Bond for a while. I don’t know what we’ll do with ‘Harry Potter.’ It’d be fun to, I think. There’s more stories that we can tell.” – Executive producer Jonathan Bunney

I can’t see the Harry Potter video games continuing for ten years, but every so often, it might be nice for EA to release a new game. I’d be interested to see how EA would handle the storyline following the events of the books.

Even without Nintendo’s presence at Leipzig this year, the event in general has been extremely successful. The first day of the convention saw 38,000 attendees, compared to the 35,000 gamers that came to the event last year. In all, 547 companies have plans to somehow take part in this year’s Leipzig as well.

After months of speculation, can the video below finally prove that Sadness is not vaporeware? Someone apparently took covert footage of the game and sent in the video file as a news tip. To be honest, I’m still not entirely convinced, although I don’t know if anyone would go to the trouble to fake something like this!

UPDATE: Unfortunately, the video was removed for unknown reasons…Seems quite fishy to me. Perhaps the video was real after all?

Even though the OFLC rated Disaster: Day of Crisis last week, the game doesn’t seem to be scheduled to release this year. According to Nintendo of Australia representative Heather Murphy, Disaster is “definitely not” going to release this year. This news isn’t entirely surprising after Cammie Dunaway’s comments about Nintendo showing all of its guns for this year. At the same time, I don’t know why the OFLC would rate the game if it’s not due for a number of months.
