From Software has unveiled on a teaser site a new action game in development, called Yoshitune Eiyuden (barbarously translated as The Story of Hero Yoshitsune). Based on the almost mythical tale of 12th century samurai Yoshitsune Minamoto, the game is described as a "Gassen Action," which translates as battle action--implying a Dynasty Warriors-esque melee skirmish. No details have been unveiled so far, except for three characters--Ushiwakamaru, young Yoshitsune; Minamotono Yoshitsune; and Musashibou Benkei, faithful sidekick of Yoshitsune who supposedly died standing up while defending Yoshitsune from a hail of arrows.

Previously, music purchased through RealNetworks' music download services could most easily be played on devices that supported its copyright protection technology. By the same token, the easiest way to get digital music onto the iPod player was through Apple's iTunes Music Store, which uses its own system. The same held true for devices that supported Microsoft's Windows Media Player anti-piracy technology.

Microsoft said it could not immediately comment on the system.
