The first Post-E3 Best of the Week had a lot of E3 follow-up news, a few announcements, one awesome rumor and videos… lots of videos…

Just in time for Pre-E3 hype, Capcom questions their Japanese presence at E3 while Square Enix and Koei both make clear that their E3 presence will be limited. Why? Swine flu. That’s why… sissies… other than that, the big news was that 3D Realms says they’re not closed.

3D Realms goes under, thus assuring Duke Nukem Forever is finally dead, Activision makes about nine billion Guitar Hero announcements and MGS4 on 360 rumors return… for whatever reason.

Batman: Arkham Asylum gets delayed until the end of the Summer, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 on XBLA and PSN is officially official, Valve sues Activision and Michael Pachter continues to lose his mind. All this plus Mr. T and Will Wright fighting Nazis!

Another week in the books and boy there were a lot of announcements this week. Bethesda announced that they had contracted Obsidian Entertainment to develop a new Fallout game, and Microsoft announced 31 games… for Japan… at the same time.

A United States Senator has called for Congress to begin an investigation into allegations of rampant steroid use among prominent members of the video game industry.
