This Week’s Games

Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm

This Week’s Games Two games that have been knocking around on the release schedules for eons are finally out today. Recommended DS FPS Dementium has seen a change of publisher while the delay behind CID: The Dummy (which stands for Crash Impact Dummy: The Dummy, oddly) is a...

Oh God

This Week’s Games Fancy a new game to play while munching on Easter eggs this weekend? Sadly your choices are limited at best. On PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 just one game makes it way to shelves – The Godfather II. Eurogamer didn’t really like it, giving it...

DS I see you

This Week’s Games The DSi hits shelves this week at a rather pricey £149.99. Many high street stores will let you have one for half price if you trade in your DS Lite though. You’d think that Nintendo would have a big new release to go alongside it,...

Lots of games

This Week’s Games Blimey, there’s quite a lot out this week. But what does any of it mean? I’ll try to work it out as I go along. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time is for Wii and Nintendo DS, and the two versions are compatible in...

Mad as a hatter

This Week’s Games That headline is a apt one as both MadWorld on Wii and Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure on DS are out this week. They’ve both been getting reviews scores of around 7 or 8, making them worth a look. Shame the same can’t be...

It began in Africa

This Week’s Games So, Resident Evil 5. It hasn’t turned out to be as good as everybody hoped, but it’s still worth a play through. It will undoubtedly be #1 next week though, regardless of the bounty of 7/10 review scores. Another game out this week that hasn’t...

EAT IT

This Week’s Games Game have been publishing quite a few exclusives recently (as in, titles can only buy in Game) and this week another two join their growing list – lush looking 2D brawler Battle Fantasia on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and Buffy on Nintendo DS. Battle...

My gun is bigger than your gun

This Week’s Games Ping! Ping! Ping! That’s the sound of Microsoft and Sony flicking elastic bands at each another. It’ll be genuinely interesting to see what does better in next week’s chart – Halo Wars or Killzone 2. There are more 360s out there than PlayStation 3s, but...

How do you do, Ken?

This Week’s Games There’s bound to be something out this week to tickle your fancy. Street Fighter IV has been getting excellent reviews and it’s also surprisingly cheap online – £27.99 at HMV seems a sensible buy. 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand is also said to be...

The scariest day possible

This Week’s Games It’s Friday the 13th, the scariest day possible. So what do we have released today? Hotel for Dogs, Disney’s Bolt, Ben 10 and Petz. Though admittedly they’re all on DS, hardly the format of choice for developers trying to scare people. FEAR 2: Project Origin...

Prefab sprout

This Week’s Games Plenty of interesting new games for DS owners this week. There’s the evergreen RPG Chrono Trigger, Age of Empires, Konami’s Time Hollow and Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia and also Nintendo’s TV-advertised Mystery Case Files: Millionheir. The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 only have two new...

The birds are having sex with the bees

This Week’s Games I hope you like animals, because EA’s SimAnimals on Wii and DS is the only game out this week. Papery thing NGamer quite liked it, comparing it to Viva Pinata. Next week is looking a bit more lively with Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box, Castlevania:...
