It's another week - another time to recap all of the happy Weekend Warriors right before we jump into all the E3 updates (which are actually already slowly picking up now!). So before all the madness sets in, make sure you're prepared to cheer for your team with the latest scoop on the industry: from the Activision Blizzard merger to Square Enix's big announcement (about another announcement), and when artificially created blackholes get delayed. Dig in!

Parading down the QJ.NET blog avenues is our very own Fourth of July flotilla of Weekend Warriors! If you weren't able to catch the full coverage of all editions, here's QuickJump QuickPeek 54 to give you a recap of all them juicy recaps. We got some disappearing firmware updates, Chrono Trigger time-warping to current-gen handhelds, a meteor causing... dun-dun-dunnn! a 30-megaton blast, and holy frakkin' screenshots, Batman! Are those pics for MK vs. DC or what?

It's the first week for QuickJump QuickPeek's second year! Some things never change, while others... well, they get quite a pretty make-over too. Debuting this week are our blog-specific Weekend Warriors, marching all over the QJ.NET blog with their very own in-depth recaps for a full seven days' worth of industry news. Take a gander... some of you may have only seen your preferred blog's Warrior, but now, it might pay to see how everything went for everyone else in the community.

(Editor's Note: QuickPeek's getting huge! And no wonder, we're nearing QuickPeek's first anniversary!)

Lots of news and updates this week, gamers! Think last week's QuickPeek was long? Hold on to your hats! We have the skinny on everything from the upcoming episodic content for Grand Theft Auto IV, the huge Apple event where they revealed the 3G iPhone, and of course, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots!

(Editor's Note: What better way to start the month, you ask? Another healthy dose of news spammage from QuickJump QuickPeek!)

Are you guys busy chasing around girls and boys for a special date come February 14? If not, we suggest some of you better stay away from razors. No wrist slashing for the sake of unrequited love, please! So, here's something else to busy yourselves with! It's this week's QuickPeek (and there's nothing emo about it!).

(Editor's note: L'amour, l'amour! It's sure as hell driving us mad, but who's complaining?)

It's not even Valentine's day yet, and already, people are spreading the love all around. And that's with or without Barry White songs stuck in our heads right now. The fireworks are over; time for the season of love! QuickJump QuickPeek is brimming once again with some loving, and here's the latest box of chocolates, from us, directly to you!

(Editor's Note: Attention kids aged one to ninety-two! There's some great news right here in front of our Jackfrost-nipped noses! It's time for QuickPeek 26 - one of our biggest issues yet! - can you say "FW overload?")

Looks like the gaming industry won't be having a silent night this Christmas. If last week weren't testament enough, it's nothing but big news after big news topping one another. Time to spread some Christmas cheer!

(Editor's Note: Well... Gunpowder treason and plot aside, last week's QuickPeek was a bit of a riot - and had a lot of things not to be forgot. But hey! Today marks QuickPeek's 20th edition! Wohoo!)

Hellzyeah. It's QuickJump QuickPeek 20! The big Two-OH, baby! To celebrate, we're adding a whole new section to QuickPeek (sorry, no spoilers)! More on that and other industry news behind the jump!

(Editor's Note: So how's your week been? It's been a rather busy week for everyone in the QuickJump community. Not only were there the usual big big BIG news cropping up when we least expected them in the gaming industry, but there have also been some major changes to this little slice of heaven we all call QJ.Net. We know some of you guys have been loyal readers since back in the heyday, and that's why we're pulling out all the stops in giving you guys a better time whenever you visit us here. You guys asked for it, and we finally got to make ends meet!)

It's QuickJump QuickPeek's 12th issue and we're zooming down the Internet highway at a momentum that could wet little Matty Lovo Jr.'s pants - BTW, props for finally scoring that PS3, Matty boy! Now while everyone else is already hitting the road for this coming week's Tokyo Game Show (starts on the 20th, all the way up to the 23rd), we've still got to recap what's been going on this week. Besides. Recent developments could actually be setting the stage for the TGS without our knowing. Is so-and-such about to bring out their big guns? Are issues between so-and-so about to be settled? Are sequels, remakes, and ports about to be revealed?

Now, before we start with all the Peeking, we'll have to sneak in some Site News that concerns everyone here in the QJ.Net community: Anonymous Commenting has now been banninated. Users are now encouraged to sign up and register - for free, mind you - in order to comment. Yep, it's been a long time coming indeed, and hey!, everyone's been giving some positive feedback on it too!

It's our goal to provide not only a source of 24/7 gaming news, but be a source of intelligent conversation as well. You all can be a smart and opinionated bunch and we want to encourage that sort of behavior, not stifle it. We're sure Captain Planet is feeling rather blue for having to go on a sudden exodus to banninator land, but it's all for the best!

What with more registered users flocking in, QJ veterans Mister Common Sense, Quixand, AoxomamoxoA, CHUCKINGROCKS, and MGSROCKS1 might have some competition cut out for them in bagging the Comment of the Week now! Who gets it in Issue 12? Sorry, no spoilers...

(Editor's Note: And a resounding "w0ot!" from the entire QuickJump community is heard throughout the blogosphere! This week's news items pack so much punch, we might as well have hired Roy Jones Jr. to write this edition of QuickPeek. Boxing legends aside, let us, the QJ team, give a resounding thank you to everyone for keeping their browsers glued right here! And to all the news submitters and tipsters, we're giving you guys the electronic 1s and 0s equivalent of a handshake and a pat on the back! You guys deserve to be called a legend in your own right!)

Welcome to the eleventh issue of QuickJump QuickPeek! The month of September just started and it's already rolling in some considerably hard-hitting news. We're talking about hard-hitting in the sense that would make you feel as if you just got run over by a truck carrying seventeen 2-ton elephants on a cobblestone avenue. And just after you woke up with a hang over too.

It's time to send in the clowns 2-ton elephants and bring in this week's recap of all the magic that's been going on. We're delivering the hottest news in the gaming industry as well as what's been going on in the technosphere. And right off the bat, we'd want to say that there's been a lot of good news for all parties concerned this week! It's time to go join the marching band; on with the updates!
