Even though the movie tie-in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen hasn't yet reached its June 2009 release target, Variety is reporting that according to various sources, Activision already has someone working on another Transformers game for 2010. What's more, rumor also has it that there's a new Spider-Man game in the works.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS) was originally intended to be out for a Christmas release, but has now been moved back to a June 2009 launch. Why the delay? Because the devs wanted more creepiness. Read all about it in the full article.

Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick explains why they decided not to retain all of Vivendi's games when the two companies merged. The reason? The games just weren't "exploitable" enough. More in the full article.

Yes, yes, I know what you're thinking: "Ohnoes, not another Spyro game..." The first three games on the PSOne were cool but after a while, Vivendi made a mess of things. Meanwhile, the Legend of the Dragon trilogy's a bit of a mixed bag so far... So maybe this third and final installment will make up for all that. Dawn of the Dragon was released last week, just in case you need reminding. But more so, maybe you still need more convincing? Here's a video with the cast of voice actors: Frodo Baggins, that other Goth Chick, and some other familiar faces.

It looks like a new musically inclined hero is in town. This time, you won't be brandishing a guitar, drum set, or even a microphone.

It was a bit of a letdown when Activision Blizzard didn't include Ghostbusters: the video game (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS, PC) in its list of releases for the remainder of 2008. Vivendi, however, indicated that all is not lost as they will be exploring other options on how to release it. The game will have to come in 2009, but someone has to pick up the publishing reins first.

A bit of bad news has arrived regarding the entity that's now known as Activision Blizzard. The company sent out a press wire announcing that only five of Vivendi's games are expected to be published, leaving the future of the company's other titles in question. Further details are available in the full article.

*Update* Ghostbusters is still in development.
*Update 2* Brutal Legend has also left limbo.

It's now official AND finalized: Activision and Vivendi have finally completed all the transactions needed to seal the deal and merge into Activision Blizzard, and the union between the two major gaming outfits would open a whole lot of possibilities for the gaming industry.

Some shareholders were apparently not too pleased when Activision and Vivendi made known their plans to form a merger, and filed an injunction suit in an attempt to stop the development in its tracks.
