Here we are again. It's certainly a more exciting month this time around, with big names like Halo, Kingdom Hearts and Dead Rising all hitting store shelves in the next few weeks. Sony's PlayStation Move is also being released, so if you simply can't get enough motion control from your Wii, Sony is here to help. Bring on the leest!

Microsoft came out and officially acknowledged the long rumored price hike on the Xbox Live Gold membership. Raising the yearly rate to $59.99 from $49.99 (starting November 1) probably won't see much of a drop-off in returning users, but may have a bit of an impact on new ones. Only time will tell.

Shameful confessions abound in this week's podcast, from Brandon's obsession with a D-lister's star vehicle, Yshua's shameful additction to Enya, and Jared's aesthetic sensibilities of a 16 year-old girl. It's another long one, to boot. Happy listening.

Excited about Scott Pilgrim vs. The World or Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game? Good, you should be. But for those who are too cheap to go see the movie or buy the game, at least you can rest in knowing that there are some free goodies for you available to Xbox Live Gold Members and Playstation 3 owners.

When most videogame enthusiasts hear about Natsume, they think one thing: Harvest Moon. The farming franchise is certainly one of the company's biggest titles, but over the years they have also published the successful Reel Fishing series and even quirkier fare such as Chulip for the Playstation 2, a game about boosting your reputation as a good kisser before landing the girl of your dreams, and the photography game Afrika for the Playstation 3.
These days, though, it seems like every week or two another videogame company is hit by layoffs. All it takes is one poorly-received game to disrupt the entire operation. So what helps keep smaller publishers like Natsume churning? Nerd Mentality had the opportunity to sit down with Graham Markay, Natsume's Vice President of Operations, to discuss how the company has dealt with the changing economic times and their upcoming line-up of games, which includes a re-imagining of Lufia II and their new IP Gabrielle's Ghostly Groove.
We also discuss Harvest Moon and the rise of Farmville, the Nintendo 3DS and Playstation Move/Microsoft Kinect, and we find out if Harvest Moon 64 is ever going to hit the Wii's Virtual Console.

The wacky beat em up PSN game from Virtual Air Guitar will utilize the Playstation Eye without the use of the Playstation Move. Here is a brand new trailer for the PSN exclusive.

Over at Kotaku, contributing editor Luke Plunkett decries the fact that Patrick Liu from the developer DICE, when questioned about playing as an American-killing Taliban soldier in Medal of Honor's multiplayer, chose to answer with, "in the end, it's a game, so we're not pushing or provoking too hard." This, Plunkett says, could have been the time that a developer stood up and made a statement. This could have been a time to do something "beyond the crass, juvenile inclusion of things like ultra-violence ... something that took balls."
But really, regardless of how bold or not Liu chose to be in his answer, we as videogame players are faced with other pressing questions. Example: for a product that does allow players to don the role of Taliban members, could it be any less ballsy?
