The last five years has seen a ton of Idolmaster games unleashed on the masses, but it looks like the franchise has finally built up the courage to head to second base – Idolmaster 2 is making its way to Xbox 360 next year.

This time around, players will be charged with the task of turning three idols into national hits. Characters from past games will make their appearances. Not much else is known at the moment, but if you can digest bubblegum J-pop, then by all means head on over to the game’s official website for the first trailer.

3D: the hot buzzword right now in Hollywood and, quite unsurprisingly, in videogame studios. In an interview with IGN at a South Korean media event, production director Chris Sagaty let slip that StarCraft II will be getting post-launch 3D support via a patch for “NVIDIA cards and screens that support it.”

In a related bit of news, NVIDIA is working on “optimizing [3D tech] for all systems”, so that the in-your-face support would work on as many computers as possible.

The most recent highlight of 3D was Metro 2033 which shipped with native support for the system.

Announcing his departure via Twitter and a blog post, Dan Teasdale, senior designer at Harmonix and lead designer on Rock Band 3, has left the studio and taken a position at Twisted Pixel Games, which is known for Splosion Man, The Maw and the upcoming Comic Jumper.

Teasdale notes that while Rock Band 3 has not been released yet, it is “design complete and on the final path to 0 bugs, GM and distribution.”

"I want to be able to help drive the vision and direction of a game," writes Teasdale. "But at the same time be hands on and physically implement and iterate on the low level of making games in a more substantial way than time affords me when working as a lead on multi-hundred person titles."

He adds that this is nothing that can be done easily on a AAA title with more than 200 people working on it. Teasdale will now work on a “ridiculously cool new project” which will have a “close knit superteam”.

Rock Band 3 is set for release this holiday for PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and DS.

"Wii software sales were down 19% year-over-year and DS software sales were down 13%, while PS3 software sales were up 58% and Xbox 360 software sales were up 29%. We think this is remarkable, given growth in the Wii hardware installed base of 44% and growth in the DS installed base of 33% over the last 12 months.

In contrast, the PS3 installed base is up 60% and the Xbox 360 installed base is up 32% over the same period. Software sales growth mirrored hardware unit growth for both the PS3 and Xbox 360, but sorely lagged hardware unit growth for the Wii and DS.

In our view, this indicates that Nintendo’s customers either are not finding enough software to satisfy their needs, or need less software than the typical Sony or Microsoft customer."

Pachter added that publishers seem to be “reluctant to support the console as broadly as the other two.”
