Video Games Coming Out This Week (02-14 – 02-20, 2010): Aliens vs. Predator

AAA’s Pick of the Week: Aliens vs. Predator

It’s finally here! It’s been years since I’ve played an AvP title, but this week sees the chance for that to be rectified, as Aliens vs. Predator is going to arrive on all major platforms this week, including the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3. It should release on the 16th in the US, and the 19th in the UK. I was actually just reading the other day that it’s not just coincidence that titles tend to come out on Tuesdays in the States, and Fridays in the UK. It’s more of a tradition. Interesting…

Sadly, the Hunter Edition for AvP is console only, not PC.

Besides this, there’s also some Everquest II stuff for the PC, Tropico 3 for Xbox 360, and some other stuff that I’ve never heard of.

Links as usual go to game detail pages at Amazon, etc.

Video Games Coming Out This Week, December 20 – 26, 2009: Nothing

Another quiet week just before Christmas. All the major titles that were going to come out, came out last month, and all the titles that may have released last month jumped to next year’s now-crowded Q1 and Q2 to avoid Modern Warfare 2.

So, if you want any major titles, best to just wait.

Links go to the usual places – Amazon, D2D, Wiiware, Dsiware, etc.

Video Games Coming out This Week, 12/06 – 12/12, 2009: The Saboteur

Pick of the Week: The Saboteur

Well, some are saying that this week is a dry one, and it is. The only big release that everyone’s been tracking so far is The Saboteur, another World War II game. No hang on, don’t go just yet! It’s different from other run-of-the-mill WWII shooters. For one, it’s got a noire look about it – the art direction is pretty good on this one, from what I’ve seen. It’s a third person stealth adventure game. Also, the main character, Sean Devlin, is Irish. I’m part Irish. The last time I remember an Irish guy in a WWII game was the Green Beret in the Commandos series.

The game has received good reviews, but nothing stellar. It came out in Europe and Australia a couple of days ago all ready, and the rest of us will get it on the 8th, this week, on PC, Xbox 360, and PS3.

Other than that, there’s not much to talk about. DiRT 2 is another game that some might go for, but driving games aren’t really my thing. Jenny McCarthy comes to the PC with Your Shape. The only thing in it worthwhile is likely Jenny McCarthy.
