Rumor has it that Electronic Arts will be adding more people to its list of cut employees. The target? Pandemic Studios.

It seems IO Interactive is keeping quite busy these days. They already got two games in the pipeline -- Hitman 5 and Kane & Lynch 2 -- and now reports are suggesting that there's another new IO title on the way.

The Xbox 360 exclusivity of the Grand Theft Auto IV expansions has never been fully explained by Microsoft and Rockstar Games. Is it timed or truly, 100%, no-more-questions-please exclusive? A recent update for GTA IV's PC version has again thrown that exclusivity into question after it allegedly added Games For Windows Live achievements for The Lost and Damned.

Hold on to your hats, folks. There's a chance that Capcom may be gearing up for a late 2009 release for Lost Planet 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360). According to a slide spotted at the Xbox 360 Invitational in Korea, anyway.

Word is that there's a huge rumor running around in the pages of PlayStation: The Official Magazine. How big? Try Killzone 3 big, with a dash of Resistance 3 and a side helping of World at War 2.

First, a disclaimer: this is just a rumor, so get your saltshakers ready. All set? Okay. Rumor has it that Microsoft is gunning for a takeover of video game publishing giant Electronic Arts.

Agent 47 is coming back. That was confirmed by Eidos president Ian Livingstone a few months back. Back then, Livingstone mentioned that IO Interactive was working on the game, but that may no longer be the case.

It's been quite a while since we heard of I Am Alive (PS3, Xbox 360, PC), and really, Ubisoft can't blame us if we keep asking if it's really still alive. After all, it was first presented back in E3 of 2008, and up until now, details have been tremendously scarce. In fact, they are so scarce that it would have been a drought as of today had it not been for the game's designer who posted a release window for 2011. So he says.

A blurred print on the latest E3 behind the scenes video (part 1) for Ubisoft's Splinter Cell: Conviction (Xbox 360, PC) might just have given away the final location for the game. MS Xbox World reader Shnooper pointed out to a section at the 1:04 time mark pointing out the potential spoiler.

So be warned: (potential) SPOILER AHEAD.

The next Tomb Raider game will be an open-world, survival horror series reboot that has Lara Croft fighting against the love child of F.E.A.R.'s Alma and Wolverine. At least that's the vibe I'm getting from these supposedly secret images of the new game that were recently leaked onto the Web.
