<-250x250 Square - left->In Canada and US, Silverlode Interactive is launching a retails product for the SAGA online collectible game, in partnership with Alliance Game Distributors, Diamond Comics, ACD Distribution and GTS Distribution.

The game will be available in retails display with the game CD, the registration code and three booster packets, but there will be also the individual booster packs containing a card with the code to be unlocked online in exchange for a virtual pack with 50 different spells and 100 different troops.
The specialty packs in the boosters are five faction packs, dragon packs, double-rare packs and spell packs.

“Hobby Stores who first spurred our imaginations with role playing games have seen a decline in sales with the proliferation of online MMO worlds, and the same decline is now being seen in collectible game sales as more and more games move online. But SAGA turns the tables, providing a retail product to the people who brought us collectible games in the first place,” declared Jason Faller, Executive Producer for Silverlode Interactive.

The pre-orders can be made until February 22 while the products will start shipping on March 14 to the distributors.

VideoGamePriceCharts.com is a new web site that has just been launched and is meant to provide the users updated details about video game prices collected from all over the Internet.
This way, all gamers will know the most advantageous selling and buying prices.

Currently the website can display almost 9,200 game prices which are updated on a daily basis and charts with the game pricing history for the last year.

To be more interesting, you can find also a list with the Winners and Losers of the Week which shows those games that have decreased and those that have increased in pricing during the last week. This helps users decide quickly which games to buy and the right moment for that.

Another section that can be found on VideoGamePriceCharts.com is Movers and Shakers blog where you can read useful information about game price analysis and explanations to find out what are the key points which you have to take into consideration when choosing the buying moment.

According to JJ Hendricks, CEO of VideoGamePriceCharts.com and JJGames.com, the new website gives users enough detailed information so they to know how much to bid on eBay-like sites, if the prices will go up or down, and which are the websites with the lowest game prices.

"I am a gamer myself, and I really wanted to create a video game that I could play with my kids."
That’s what Steven Spielberg declared recently regarding the new video game in which production it is involved, called Boom Blox, in collaboration with Electronic Arts.

After winning three Academy awards, the movie director started to think in this new video game about players building and manipulating groups of blocks offering them the possibility to build their own levels.



The game modes established are single player, co-op and versus with more than 300 levels and over 30 funny characters.
Spielberg is very fascinated about gaming and this is ot the first time he comes u with a new idea for a new game, as he put the bases for The Dig, a point-and-click game developed by LucasArts, and currently the director is working at another project with EA which is an action adventure game, “set against the backdrop of an epic story” as he said.



For this one though no title or release date was made public yet but what we know is that it’ll be developed for PS3, Xbox 360 and personal computers.
But we know that Bloom Blox will come out in May this year for Nintendo Wii first and after a short time we can expect a mobile version too.
