There's a Street Fighter IV (PS3, Xbox 360) sequel coming, Capcom's Natsuki Shiozawa said so himself in Capcom Japan's official blog. We're not really sure how much of a "sequel" this actually would be, but he did indicate that an official announcement will be made soon.

Apart from Capcom's official announcement at last year's E3, and the subsequent revelation that David Hayter will be hopping on board, not much has been known or heard about the movie adaptation of Lost Planet (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC). Thanks to Jun Takeuchi, we're learning more about the project, and what do you know, it won't be following the game's storylines after all.

We've already seen that baddies in Lost Planet 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360) can come in sizes bigger than your house so hearing about colossal sand worms really doesn't come as a surprise. But if you're looking for more updates on just how big and nasty these guys and the game can get, you've come to the right place. According to Gamepro, "this game has Gears of War-killer written all over it."

When a guy of Keiji Inafune's caliber agrees to have an interview with you and says he's interested in a collaboration, you will need more than a pinch and a slap across the face to get you back down to Earth. The guy is, after all, a legend. That's what happened to the guys at Bungie, who managed to sit down with Capcom's legendary R&D man.

Capcom launches today their Platinum Hits Triple Pack, and it most certainly does pack a lot of power into it. Still don't have Dead Rising, Lost Planet Colonies Edition, or Devil May Cry 4? Here's your chance them all in one go, at one price.

With GamesCom out of the way, there's still another big gaming event on the calendar: the Tokyo Game Show. For this year's TGS, Sega will be showing off a pretty balanced lineup that includes handheld sequel Valkyria Chronicles 2, the PS3 and Xbox 360 RPG End of Eternity, and PS3 exclusive Yakuza 4.

If none of the designs featured in the earlier MadCatz Street Fighter IV (PS3, Xbox 360) fightsticks appealed to you, maybe the ones splashed on these new sticks will.

We've got an even spread of game releases for this week's batch of On Shelves games, including a couple of downloadable ones. Big for handhelds this week would be Capcom's and Namco Bandai's brawler offerings on the PSP, Fate/Unlimited Codes (available via PSN) and Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny, respectively. Full list of game releases this week after the jump.

We had E3, then GamesCom, then PAX is coming up next, and then right after that, we have Tokyo Game Show! It's events season alright, and every time we can't wait to see what the pubs and devs are bringing along with them to show off to us. Capcom's got their list down pat already, so it seems. Via their Unity twitter, they've announced that they have "several" new game announcements in store. It sure is nice to see that they're always kept busy for our entertainment.

If you're not going to the GamesCom event in Cologne, Germany, don't worry cos there's still something for you to do on August 19th. That day, apart from the aforementioned conference, sees the launch of the demo for Lost Planet 2. Yes, Takeuchi's vague confirmation about a month ago has now been fully confirmed with a press release from Capcom announcing the scheduled release of the said game's demo.
