James Bond - Image 1When it comes to rumors in this industry, Quatermann is definitely a source to be reckoned with, and he's got a smorgasbord of "what-ifs" and "maybes" just waiting for us to take the first bite. Pull up a chair, take a seat, and get ready as we dig in with both knife and fork in this update's juiciest rumors.

Just leave your expectations and dreams at the door beforehand, lest a denial or confirmation breaks them into tiny bite-sized pieces.

The first course that we'll be tearing into is Bizarre Creations' new project that involves the legendary spy and espionage agent, James Bond. And in keeping with their experience in racing titles, namely Project Gotham Racing, this one's going to be based heavily on the franchises' highly-popular-but-horribly-underepresented driving sections.

After all, no James Bond movie is complete without a physics-defying car chase, so it fits that the video game branch of the franchise gets its own title based on driving awesome cars.

Next is Nintendo's alleged disinterest in expanding Mii customization and functionality on the Nintendo Wii. Even with the arrival of the Check Mii Out channel, it seems that Nintendo's not that enthusiastic about the quirkily-cute avatar creation system, even shooting down a first party title that gave players more customization options over their Miis. Huh.

Last but not least is Square Enix and how it could be giving the Xbox 360 yet another title to brag about, and that's Front Mission. At the same time, it looks like the company behind the legendary RPG franchise, Final Fantasy, is looking to make one of their IPs strictly exclusive on the Sony PlayStation 3. Just what IP that is, we don't know quite yet.

And that's everything from the rumor mill. Keep in mind, though, that until we get word from the parties concerned, they remain rumors.
