SouthPeak Devours Gamecock
4:40AM Mike Fahey | Whoa, I didn’t even know SouthPeak Interactive swung that way, but apparently they’ve been Gamecock-hungry for quite some time and aren’t too proud to pay for it.

Tons of New Mushroom Men Screens
6:00AM Adam Barenblat | The whole Mushroom Men concept is one bizarre creation from Gamecock. The thing is that you can’t help but stare at the beauty of it. There’s something really intriguing about helping a lone fungi find his place in society. We have screens from Spore Wars (Wii) and Rise of the Fungi (DS) here in the gallery.

Starlight, Star Not So Bright
1:00AM Brian Crecente | Jim Reilly, Kotaku New York intern and closet Saved By the Bell fanboy, hit up a Nintendo party and fundraiser for the Starlight Children’s Foundation at the Nintendo World Store Friday night. Not only did he get to hang out with Kyle Massey of Cory in the House and get hands on with some unreleased games, he also had a chance to talk to Mark-Paul “Zack” Gosselaar about Rock Band.

And then, right there, in mid sentence, it seemed to dawn on Gossellar that what he was saying was going to be printed and he suddenly recalled his wife of 12 years. Smoooooooth.

8:20AM Leigh Alexander | Fungi? Mushroom nations? I blink perplexed, until I realise it’s Red Fly Studios’ Mushroom Men duo of games for Wii and DS, to be published by Gamecock in October. Here are tonnes of new screens of both the Wii version, Mushroom Men: Spore Wars, and the DS version, Mushroom Men: Rise of the Fungi. Gamecock also provided further info on the four different “nations” of mushroom creatures – put simply, there are two tribes of good guys, the Bolete and Morels, and two tribes of bad guys, the Amanitas and Lepiotas. Hey, wasn’t “Amanita” a poisonous mushroom in Symphony of the Night? It must be a real, actual thing that exists outside of video games. Amazing! Full details and new screens after the jump.
