11:28AM - Capcom's just made a whole lot of people very happy.

Hold it! Capcom announces a Phoenix Wright prequel, Gyakuten Kenji (Turnabout Prosecutor), starring everyone's favorite pink wearing prosecutor, Edgeworth!

Like the previous AA games, Kenji will focus on crime scene investigation (but not courtroom theatrics). This time the action follows Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth and Detective Dick Gumshoe. Using new gameplay systems, you'll check out crime scenes for unseen evidence, and argue cases in court. Unlike Saiban, Edgeworth will actually be visible on screen, making this more of a point-and-click adventure, versus a graphical text adventure.

The only way Capcom could make fans of the games happier is if they announced it was going to get a same day release in Japan and everywhere else.

Or if they announced another spin-off with just Dick Gumshoe... What? It could be like Pokemon where they release two versions of the same game. Or something.

12:25PM - Set phasers to FABULOUS

George Takei sings "On the Road Again."


I'm scared! Someone hold me! T_T

Current mood: OMGWTF

1:03PM - Broadway audiences will soon learn if Daniel Radcliffe is hung like his horse.

Daniel Radcliffe and his treasure trail are set to make their stateside debut this September when Equus arrives on Broadway.

Unlike all those rumors claiming tabloid favorites like Kevin Federline and Nicole Richie were ready to high-kick and lip sync their way through musicals, Radcliffe's smash hit in London was a far cry from stunt casting. But Harry Potter sounds a bit more nervous than he is excited:

"I will be terrified because I was talking to [co-star] Richard Griffiths about playing New York, and he said the most stupid thing you can do is underestimate New York audiences."

What, by assuming they'll pour into the theater just to see those infamous pictures come to life? Why, we'd never...
