Hey everybody! Frodo here. I know you miss us. I knows you do. We are busy preparing for next week's super special E3 preview! Nevery is going to be covering the show, and we have a lot of stuff to talk about! Nintendo is going to be having their huge press conference talking about the Nintendo Wii, and they have one huge announcement left. SquareEnix is showing off a metric butt-ton of titles, and it will be interesting to see how Sony and Microsoft plan to compete at the show. Tune in next week for The Weekly Geek's super huge E3 extravaganzaaaaaaaaa!

Man, I do love me some Kingdom Hearts II. It's like crossover fanfiction you don't feel dirty for liking because it's not actually fanfiction. Seeing Will Turner from Pirates talking to Goofy and Donald is just surreal at times.
I hope they do end up making a 3rd game, but also, waiting a while before they do. The second KH game is as special as the first because they didn't just crank it out right away to capitalize on the popularity.
So here is where I fanboyishly list my hopes for appearances in the next Kingdom Hearts game.
On the Disney Side, they should be able to include Pixar stuff now that Disney bought them. I also am going to include some stuff that isn't just their feature films:
- Emperor's New Groove
- Gargoyles
- The Incredibles
- Toy Story
- Monsters Inc.
- Kim Possible
- Darkwing Duck
On the Final Fantasy side:
- Kain
- Edge
- Shadow
- Chocobos
- Gogo
- Palom and Porom
- Freya

Yeah, so we know that the April Fool's Joke at Blizzard is that Wisps are the new Alliance race. Har dee har har. Pretty weak. C'mon guys, at least make it believable.
But anyway, we've all been hearing the rumor for quite some time that the new race for the Alliance is the Pandaren.
It turns out that the whole Pandaren thing was completely invented by Ian over at MacHall back in friggin' October.
Nice one, Ian. You totally got us.
Kudos.
