Kojima Gives Birth To ‘Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow’
added by newsBotby John Constantine
When Hideo Kojima walked on stage at Konami’s E3 press conference this afternoon, announcing that he was going to be showing off four games that Kojima Productions is working on, you could literally hear the crowd start holding their breath.

News: Hamlet Filming Underway
added by newsBotHe's not quite post-Who as yet - there's more than likely a lot of publicity to come in the backend of 2010 - but David Tennant is certainly moving in with his career. Although he is doing it by popping back to Hamlet. It seems that recording of the recent RSC production is underway, something that will likely utilise either an already built set for another production of the play or a stripped down set with the focus on the actors performance. David Tennant, Patrick Stewart and almost all of...
