Fixing the siding on the mobile home, racing lawnmowers, and flinging toilet seats- that’s how we’ll be spending the week. We will likely fight a few harpies too, on our quest for the Golden Fleece. Yes, the life of a professional game reviewer is typically fraught with glitz and glamor. Until fortunes change with a single copy of Learn Math. For the unfortunate children that receive this game in their holiday stockings, we sympathize- we once received Donkey Kong Jr. Math one desolate Christmas.

Rise of the Argonauts
DesertEagle’s Picks: DS owners craving first-person-shooter mayhem have had two options: the admirable Metroid Prime: Hunters and the substandard Goldeneye. With C.O.R.E., players have a third option. As a sucker for Greek mythology, I’m anxious to see how Rise of the Argonauts has turned out.
TideGear’s Picks: Wow, not much this week! C.O.R.E. seems interesting though!
You guys are pretty funny. Nothing for me, although those Redneck games could be worth a rental. Nothing more.
Great title. I’m saving my cash.
How the hell does anyone having any money? Its Christmas during a recession??!
Core looks ok, but the Ds controls cant handle a FPS very well.
Nothing for me this week.
Rise of the Argonauts could kick ass
or suck completely.
Seems like all the good games are already out.
Neopets Puzzle Adventure, if the reviews are better than 80%
Will you guys review the Wii version. I liked your DS review.
is Calvin Tucker’s Redneck Jamboree a joke or a real game?
Nothing great this week. I’ll pass
I think it will be a decent GoW ripoff, worth about $40.
I’ll get it on the first big sale.
Learn Match…Worse title ever for a ‘game’?
Nothing special this week.
Dude looks like 300
“FORRRRR SSSSSPPPPAAAARRRRRRRRTTTTTTAAAAAAA!!!”
It’s a real game. No one could make that up.
Rock Band 2 for the Wii, hell yeah!
What’s wrong with math?
Core, not Corps, DE?
I loved the Jason and the Argonauts movie as a kid, so I may go with that… We’ll see how the reviews go.
Wow, DE and TG agree on the game of the week. It must be good!
Nuthin’ for me.
More lame DS releases.
Candace Kane’s Candy Factory. WTF?
Calvin Tucker’s Redneck Jamboree sound great!
Agreed. Although its probably so so play wise.
Matchstick sound just painful.
I don’t remember an electric sword in the movie
Rise for PS3.
A load of junk just in time for the holidays.
C.O.R.E. might be worth a go.
Matchstick or Math
Mystery P.I. Portrait of a Thief is he drives a Ferrari on an Hawaii island and has a sweetass ‘stache
Will you guys review RotA?
No games for me.
Matchstick was delayed until march. Don’t ask me what is about tho…
Rise of the Argonauts seems good, but from what I heard it was rushed out for the holidays. 🙁 I’m not sure why, though. It seems destined to get lost in the rush of games.
RB2 will probably own this week. I know a lot of people that were looking to buy it for the Wii. =p
Rise of the Argonauts might seem appealing but it’s not a $60 purchase for me though. Might get it at 30 though
ehh nothin special
Wow… didn’t expect Rise of the Argonauts to have such crappy reviews (57.7% average for 360 on GameRankings), or that Legendary is worse (50.6%). Considering that the reviews I’ve read of RotA say its damn near unplayable with bugs and framerate issues.
Good thing I don’t want anything on this list. Need to keep the wallet nice and full for that hdtv…
Great advice! Thanks for adding to the discussion.Thanks for putting this together! It looks very cool so far. I’ll be checking back to see the full plans.
