THQ had a pair of Saint's Row related announcements this morning. CEO Brian Farrell has confirmed that the third entry in the series - "Saints Row 3" - will be heading to all next generation platforms by Fall 2011. This announcement was made during their recent earnings call to investors.
Volition is also working on an Xbox Live bonus title called "Saints Row Drive By" which was originally scheduled for release on the Nintendo 3DS. The Xbox Live version of Drive By will enable players to unlock goodies in the full fledged console game.
No further information or media was released in regards to either title. As we E3, GDC and GamesCom approach more information should become available. Are you excited for either of these new Saints Row titles? Let us know in the comments.

Frank West Cut From MvC3 & More
The hype train surrounding Capcom's upcoming superhero infused brawler Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 is in full swing. A recent interview gives new insight in to what Capcom left on the cutting room floor and a whole new batch of new media has been released. With the game only three weeks away from release I don't think that this will be the last news post you will see before it is in your hands.
One of the most wanted characters that was scheduled for this go around was photojournalist Frank West. Unfortunately despite his appearance in Tatsunoko vs Capcom the team had some issues with his moveset despite being far along in development.
“But we’ve taken him [Frank West] out, due to the fact that we’ve foreseen some extra work involved, just from the nature of his moves. We felt we could direct our resources to better use, so we’ve taken Frank out.” - Ryota Niitsuma Producer of Marvel Vs Capcom 3.
The last tidbit that Capcom released to help us get excited for MVC3 is a batch of new media showing off the recently revealed inclusions Akuma and Taskmater.
Could this game get any more sweeter? Only time will tell as we head towards the February 15th release date. Are you looking forward to fighting as your favorite Capcom or Marvel character? Let us know in the comments.

Rumor 'I Am Alive' Set For XBLA Release
Could Ubisoft's long in development action title I Am Alive finally see release in 2011? According to French gaming website JeuxVideo the game will take the form of a downloadable title for the Xbox Live Arcade and similar platforms. According to the same video the game could be in the hands of Jade Raymond - producer of Assassins Creed I & II as well as the director of Ubisoft's new Toronto studio.
I Am Alive utilized a modified version of the Unreal 2.0 engine and casts the player as "Adam" - a civilian trying to survive in a post-earthquake ravaged Chicago. In previous builds of the game players were able to play in either a first or third person view. Guiding Adam through the city and performing actions such as interrogating enemies, finding food and other activities needed to survive.
It is unknown whether not these elements still remain intact as development has shifted from the game's original developer DarkWorks to an internal Ubisoft studio. It is possible that we will see more information as GDC and E3 inch closer and closer.
