• Joystiq.com reports that the Splatterhouse remake is back on track, with developer BottleRocket helming the title again.
• Expect some changes to come to Quake Live soon. The soonest ones to come into effect will be through a mid-May update. It should have new maps, tutorial modes and better mid-match team balancing. For further info on what id has planned, check out their forum post here.
• Rumors abound are pointing toward a Vietnam setting for the next Call of Duty (meaning the one that is not modern).
• Do you love Crash Bandicoot? If so, you may be interested in the XBLM Deal of the Week. If your a Gold member, you can pick up Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex from the Xbox Originals line for only $10 (800MP). Regular price is $15 (1200 MP). Go here to add it to your queue.
• Sony is adding StageSet to Home this week. Basically, it’s Machinima Utility that will allow you to make movies in the service with your Avatar.
• We get three slices of XBLA goodness this week. Look for Arkanoid Live!, Space Invaders Extreme & Zombie Wranglers to be released on Wednesday for 800MP each.
