So the game industry just realized that most of you might still be working on Mass Effect 3, so they’ve throttled back on their releases this week somewhat. Wait, what? You’re done with ME3? I guess that’s what happens when you send messages to the game industry via carrier pigeons.

Remember. Release dates are quite literally made at the whims of the publisher.  The following are subject to change without any warning.

Spring time and the links are calling. If you don't have the athleticism or would rather pay your green's fees in one easy payment for the price a game, then you're in luck. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 brings golf to the masses with new golfers, improved mechanics and more courses. Tiger 13 ups the ante by fine tuning its total swing control in the most significant way yet.

Coming This Week

Tuesday March 27, 2012

Capcom Digital Collection (Xbox 360)

Did you know Capcom has a plethora of digital games on Xbox Live Arcade? What’s that? You still don’t have an internet connection? What do you live in a cave too? Well, this here compilation gives you eight of Capcom’s digital games just for you. It includes 1942: Joint Strike,Final Fight: Double Impact, Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, and five other games. All eight games would total around $95 if you buy them individually, but this compilation has been priced for $40. Not bad. Not bad at all.

Warriors Orochi 3 (Xbox 360)

Take Dynasty Warriors, mash it with Samurai Warriors, and you get the first two Warriors Orochi. Now do that again plus Ninja Gaiden, Bladestorm, Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll, Dead or Alive, and Warriors: Legends of Troy, and you got yourself a Dynasty Warriors game with over 120 playable characters. I’d be impressed, if it wasn’t for the fact that it’s a Dynasty Warriors game.

Myst (3DS)

Some have pointed to Myst as the reason the Point and Click Adventure genre died out back in the 90’s. I don’t know about that, but I’m pretty sure the crappy DS port that came out in 2008 killed any and all interest for this once popular franchise. Unfortunately for all of us, they ported that version straight onto the 3DS complete with an absolute dearth of any 3DS functionality. Hell, the entire game plays out on the touchscreen while the top screen simply shows the Myst logo the entire time. Sigh.

Kids Learn to Think: A+ Edition (DS)

I wasn’t aware thinking was something that had to be taught to children. “Now kids. See this picture of an apple? You should be thinking apple right this very moment. Let’s go ahead and practice that right now.”
