This Week’s Games It’s always the way – October and November see a slew of new releases but December is utterly barren. Last week you could count the new games on one hand; this week you could use just two two fingers. How rude! Sonic Unleashed make a belated appearance on PlayStation 3, while EA’s …
This Week’s Games Without a hint of exaggeration, there are 101 games out this week. 101 in 1 Explosive Megamix for DS to be precise. It’s £17.99 on Play.com and by clicking on the link you can see a little video of it. The puzzle games seem all right, but the action games appear to …
This Week’s Games From the looks of things, Prince of Persia and Animal Crossing: Let’s go to the City are the last of the big Christmas releases. That’s unless you count Agatha Christie: Evil Under the Sun on Wii and Indoor Sports School on DS as big releases. Which you probably don’t. Ubi’s cel-shaded Prince …
This Week’s Games After a chaotic few weeks, the new releases are starting to slow down a tad. Sonic Unleashed is the most high profile, the PlayStation 2 version of which is a stupidly cheap £12.89 at sendit.com, but Lord knows if it’s any good. Sega said that it isn’t being released in Japan, which …
This Week’s Games Another week, another slew of big releases. Get ready to open your wallets for Shrek’s Carnival Craze (Need for Speed Undercover), Funfair Party (Tomb Raider Underworld), Imagine Gymnast (Left 4 Dead) and Barbie Horse Adventures: Summer Camp (Skate It). Lara’s latest hasn’t been getting glowing reviews (it’s currently on 75% on Gamerankings) …
This Week’s Games This week could possibly be a record breaker for new game releases, with just over 50 (yes, 50) making an appearance – 24 on DS, 6 on PlayStation 2, 5 on Xbox 360, 8 on Wii, 2 on PSP and another 8 on PlayStation 3. There are some big releases in there …
This Week’s Games Blimey Charlie – this week is rammed with rent a car bulgarianew releases, with the Wii alone on the receiving end of thirteen shiny new games. Fallout 3 – out on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC – is the big one, and I’m wondering how many people are going to buy …
This Week’s Games Without a whiff of sarcasm, it’s a good week for new releases. Fable II has been a long time coming but looks like being worth the wait, and both Far Cry 2 and EA’s twisted survival horror romp Dead Space have been getting a lot of positive attention. Then there’s Midnight Club: …
This Week’s Games So, Saints Row 2 has turned out to be pretty good. Early previews suggested that the developers had gone down the twisted and brutal path by turning up the violence, but from the looks of things in the last few months of development they’ve had a change of heart and turned it …
This Week’s Games Lego Batman is this week’s big game, available on all formats. Game are giving away a free keyring (a Lego Batman, unsurprisingly), with the PSP and PlayStation 2 versions available for a nice £19.99 each. Anybody want to guess what the next Lego game will be? I would say Harry Potter or …
This Week’s Games If it wasn’t for FIFA 09, this week would be an absurdly quiet one for new releases, with Zubo, SimCity Creator, Phoenix Wright and Dancing Stage SuperNOVA 2 being the only other titles. Supermarkets are having a mini price-war with FIFA this weekend – ASDA are selling the Xbox 360 and PlayStation …
This Week’s Games Can you stomach yet another war game? Ubisoft hopes so – Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway and Brothers in Arms: Double Time for Wii are both out today. Hell’s Highway has been getting a lot of 7s and 8s in the press and is apparently a bit on the gory side. Double …
This Week’s Games Sega’s Yakuza 2 on PlayStation 2 could very well end up being the last decent PlayStation 2 exclusive. Sure, there are plenty of games still on the way for the aging format, but most are toned-down conversions. If you liked Shenmue then buy it – it has lots in common with Sega’s …
This Week’s Games The credit crunch seems to have rubbed off on the gaming world. Supreme Commander is out on Xbox 360 this week for a hefty £29.99. The PC version, which came out over a year and a half ago, can easily be found for around a fiver. Then there’s a belated appearance for …
This Week’s Games I made a mistake in last week’s new game round up by claiming that Fable II is Microsoft’s next big first party Xbox 360 game. It isn’t, but don’t blame me – Viva Pinata 2: Trouble in Paradise has appeared out of almost nowhere. It’s meant to be good though, as is …
