Our past day of reporting from Tokyo Game Show saw Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam, Project Dark and its demon soul, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, and that suave blue PS3 above. And there's plenty more to read about as well.

Here's a run down of day four of the show. You can find day one here, day two here and day three here.

D3 Publisher has made it 100% official—Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon is coming to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 next spring, a chance to shoot bugs. Giant bugs! Thousands of them!!

Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon touts an arsenal more than 150 weapons strong. Along with "four upgradeable armor sets," D3 Publisher has a six-player Survival Mode and a three-player online co-op mode. Now that the numbers are out of the way, let's take a peek at one more screen shot of Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon in action, plus a teaser trailer.

One final note, though. This EDF entry is being developed by Vicious Cycle, not Sandlot. The developer is responsible for Matt Hazard: Blood Bath and Beyond—also known as the better Matt Hazard game—and Dead Head Fred. Let's hope the game's creators can match (or surpass) the addictive nature of previous Earth Defense Force games (and maybe keep that frame rate steady).

Here's an all-too-brief teaser trailer for Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon, full of screams!

Only 15 players have hit four home runs in a single game, a feat even more rare than a perfect game. Three of them are Phillies. If anyone would become the fourth, Chase Utley's a good candidate.

Andrew K., playing a full 162-game season as the Phillies with MLB 10: The Show, received the Reds last week about 90 games through the season. Utley cracked solo shots in the first and third innings at the Bank, went quiet in his fifth inning at-bat, then struck again in the seventh with another solo kong.

"At this point I was pretty jazzed because three home runs in four at bats is something you don't see every day," Andrew writes. He's right, though it has happened 12 times this season alone. "I didn't see any way Utley would get up again in the eighth, but a surprise two hit rally gave Utley another at bat. He didn't let the opportunity pass him by and smacked a fourth home run into the right field stands just west of the foul pole. Easily one of the most exciting video game moments I have ever had."

The only blot on a perfect night in Philadelphia was the fact that douchemaster Scott Rolen went 3-for-5 with a home run of his own. Anyway, here's the box score!

Remember, all you have to do to get yourself featured in Box Scores' Game of the Week is take a picture of whatever you've been playing - crappy cell picture will do - write up a couple sentences about why it was so compelling, and email it to me, owenATkotakuDOTcom, with "Box Scores" in the subject header.

Now the Kotaku Sports open thread commences with the sports TV schedule for today and tomorrow. All times are U.S. Eastern.

• College Football
  Another full slate but only Iowa at Arizona (ESPN, 10:30 p.m.) is a matchup of ranked teams. Others of note: Florida at Tennessee, CBS at 3:30 p.m.; Auburn vs. Auburn-With-A-Lake (aka Clempson) on ESPN at 7; Nebraska at Washington is ABC's regional game if you're lucky enough. Otherwise you might get Alabama at Duke, which would need a time machine to be compelling. This week's Pam Ward Memorial MAC-Big Ten matchup is Kent State at Penn State on ESPN2, kicked off an hour ago.
• 
  
• NFL
  You know the drill, regional coverage. Best bets are Miami at Minnesota, CBS at 1 p.m. tomorrow; Patriots at Jets or Texans at Redskins, both 4:15 p.m. on CBS. Giants-Colts, aka Manning Bowl II, kicks off at 8:20 p.m. on NBC. Monday Night's game features the Saints at the 49ers as the Mike Singletary Magical Mystery Tour lurches toward its inevitable midseason dismissal.
• 
  
• Major League Baseball
  Funny thing, schedules change, as I found out last week. Fox's games are said to be Braves at Mets, Tigers at ChiSox, or Padres at Cards. All of them feature at least one reasonable contender, but maybe you'll get something different. For masochists, WGN has the Cubs-Marlins at 7 p.m.
  
  Tomorrow, don't bother. Cubs-Marlins on WGN, 1 p.m.; Yankees-Orioles on TBS, 1:30. No Sunday night game, apparently.
• 
  
• Racin'
  NASCAR's Sylvania 300, the first race in this year's Chase for the Cup playoff, drops the flag at 1 p.m. tomorrow on ESPN

Today during a stage show, Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima briefly mentioned MGS5. "Maybe, I'll do 5," said the game designer.

Kojima then joked that he won't have to quit working at Konami. Kojima was being glib, and this isn't officially confirmation of a new Metal Gear Solid (or that certainly not that he is leaving Konami) by any means. He was just being lighthearted.

This isn't the first we've heard of MGS5. Moreover, it has previously been revealed that Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker was intended to be MGS5. Also, this isn't the first time he's mentioned MGS5 — he was thinking about it in May 2008.

Time after time it seems like Kojima has been vocal about moving on. While finishing up Metal Gear Solid 4, Kojima repeatedly said he was moving on from the series and hoped that younger members of his staff could take the reigns.

At last year's TGS, Kojima told Kotaku, "If you write that 'Kojima-san doesn't have to make Metal Gear any more' every day on Kotaku, and write to the CEO of Konami and tell him that, then it might be easier for me to make non-Metal Gear games."

We have been remiss. Apologies. Kojima-san doesn't have to make Metal Gear anymore. He can make Snatcher or Zone of the Enders or anything else.

As we previously pointed out, it's not like the Metal Gear games Kojima is making are bad or anything. On the contrary. However, surely, the man has other stories he'd like to tell, other worlds he'd like to explore.

GameTrailers got the first in-game cutscene from Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2. Not once in 33 years have I ever seen anyone disembark a TIE Fighter, and Star Wars doesn't look like it's gonna start showing that now.

How the hell do you get in and out of those things, anyway, the Force? Oh, and memo to the dude who looks like Jimmy from Mafia II, that little cord going up the barrel of your pistol better mean a super-duper enhancement but even then, you should know better than to draw on this guy.

Apes go wild, again, in Furi Furi! Sarugechu—or Ape Escape Shake! Shake!, if you prefer—the first game in the monkey-snatching series to utilize Sony's new PlayStation Move controller. The goal? Grab monkeys! With the Move!

The Move-enabled version of Ape Escape puts things in first-person perspective, the motion controller acting as a floating net—to grab monkeys, naturally—or a slingshot or a folding fan. Cycle through your available gadgets with the Move button. Fire your slingshot by pulling the trigger button and wave the fan to remove debris by... waving the Move controller.

Ape Escape Shake! Shake! is an on-rails, largely guided experience. You'll move through brightly colored rooms filled with monkeys both agitated and preoccupied; they'll run at you, you swing at them with your net. It feels like being a goalkeeper, deflecting apes instead of soccer balls.

Players can use the slingshot to annoy monkeys, destroy objects and shoot banana power ups. By pressing the X or O button, players can shift the camera left or right to spot monkeys and power-ups that exist just out of sight.

While the monkey snatching action in Ape Escape for the PlayStation Move isn't particularly challenging or wildly inventive, Furi! Furi! is a lot of fun. It's a Move game with promise, one that puts the controller's precision to good use, so we'll be keeping an eye on Furi! Furi! Ape Escape.

The White House wants to know, is everything OK with the alien space craft from Planet 10 or should we just go ahead and destroy Russia?

Coming soon: The Moneysaver Versus The World Crime League.

Before we get started, interesting development in valueland: the digital distribution service GamersGate just opened a full-blown store through Facebook. From there, users can search or browse games and add them to their carts. Product information and screen shots are viewable, and if you want to let folks know what you're buying or playing, there's a social graph to all of this, being that it's Facebook.

This is an application, as opposed to a page. Check it out here.

Two major drops - Halo: Reach on Tuesday, PlayStation Move on Friday - vied with Tokyo Game Show 2010 to dominate the past week. They may have been the biggest news, but they weren't the only news.

Reach went out with some problems, apparently - multiplayer issues on the 4GB Slim Arcade models of the 360, and puzzling disc read errors that Microsoft later acknowledged. You're supposed to call Xbox Live Support if you hit any of those. PlayStation Move arrived, and we gave an assessment of whether it was worth your coin to go get it. A few details on one of Kinect's launch titles also trickled out.

We will have much more to come from Bash and McWhertor in Japan, but for now, kick back and take a recap of the week that was in Kotaku's Original reporting, and get set for another wild weekend on the site.

Namco Bandai's idol simulator The Idolm@ster features teenage girls. But in Japan, it's not only young girls who are idols. Young boys are, too.

Besides its stable of girls, Idolm@ster 2 will feature a boy band unit called "Jupiter". There is 17-year-old Touma Amagase, 20-year-old Ijuuin Hokuto and 14-year-old Shouta Mitarai.

In the clip, the group performs its tune "Alice of Guilty". It's...not catchy.

The latest challengers for Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds? Spider-Man and Wesker from Resident Evil. This is certainly not the first appearance for Spider-Man in a MvC title. It is, however, for Wesker.

These are the latest characters in the span of the past two weeks. Earlier, Marvel's X-23 and Capcom's Tron Bonne were added to the roster.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds will be out next spring on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
