The Weekly Release

[bapenguin]

The latest Weekly Release has been posted (http://www.theweeklyrelease.com/). Even though this list is quite long, there doesn't seem to be anything "big" coming out. Fracture does hit for both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but I think it may disappoint some. Be sure to read our full review (http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?t=605).

Nothing standout on the DVD and Blu-Ray front either. Body of Lies opens in theaters this Friday - and looks to be a solid picture with Russel Crowe and Leo DiCaprio.

For the full release list (including VC and XBLA additions) hit up TheWeeklyRelease.com (http://www.theweeklyrelease.com) or the first post in this thread.

So that's two vaguely disappointing titles for Lucasarts in a row, eh? I wonder if Fracture will be nearly as commerically successful as SWTFU.

Doubtful. Force Unleashed is easily the better of the two games, but even that game should be rented and not purchased in my opinion.

[Fubl]

nothing for me this week....

[pseudopseudo]

That Foo Fighters Bluray might be worth checking out.

Actually, I think I'll have to see if Target has it when I'm out an about today. I'm a sucker for a good concert video.

Jack Brooks Monster Slayer looks like it could be entertaining.

$50 for Dr. Who dvds?? Hopefully bbv will get them or the library.

Damn it - they changed that from yesterday.

Not much for me this week though I am curious about Quarantine.

Nothing for me this week other than Rock Band DLC. Dead Space next week.

Kage Densetsu: The Legend of Kage 2

I still want to know who thought this was a good idea.

Guilty Gear 2: Overture

I have to wonder how well this will do. Guilty Gear is kind of niche in the US anyway, and this is a third person action game, so I expect it will be unappealing to many GG fans.

[Cyndair]

I'm actually kind of relieved. This gives me a week to get caught up!

Just an FYI, the bar at the top of the site still points to EvAv instead of CoG. ;)

Someone is actually still making Army Men games? Other than that, anyone thinking of going to see Quarantine should just rent [REC] on DVD instead.

The NBA titles are big even if they aren't for this community.

That's just what I was going to say.

I'm wondering if this is the year that Live finally bests the 2k series. The 2k series has been slipping, imo.
