This Week’s Games
Two games out this week scream big sales at me: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10.
There aren’t many reviews of EA’s latest Potter efforts yet, but the pattern seems to be: console versions reasonable, handheld versions not. Needless to say, it looks like yet another quality outing for that man Tiger Woods.
A vibrant blue PSP is a curious release, given the relative imminence of the UMD-less version. Plus it looks foul.
Back on the software: there’s the well-received wild-west-athon Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360; intriguing astronaut trainer Space Camp for Wii and DS; the apparently rather good DS FPS Moon.
This week’s presumably pointless DS releases are Astrology, Drama Queens and Classic Word Games.
