Shane Bettenhausen (sp?)? I think he's working for 1UP or Rebel FM... Isn't he?

He left games journalism and went into the development side. He is now Director of Business Development for Ignition Entertainment.

He does ListenUp when they are at conventions or whenever they are in LA (where Shane now lives). He did an episode during E3 this year.

EGM will be back.  The founder bought the name and the mag will be reappearing eventually.

EGM is coming back, but it is no longer associated with 1up.

Doubt it, though they've confirmed Sushi-X is coming back...whatever that means.

But no, Shane is in greener pastures now, using his passion for Japanese gaming to help publish obscurer niche games here in the West. I think trying to write for the new EGM would be a "you can't go back home" scenario. He seems pretty chill and happy whenever he's appeared on ListenUp since leaving 1Up.com.
