New Releases 6/1-6/6: Attack of the Moorhen Edition

Never heard of the Moorhuhn? He started life as a German promotional tool for Johnny Walker whiskey, starring in a Duck Hunt-like game in 1999. In the early 2000’s he had a comic book, hit single, television deal, and if tabloids can be trusted- a public feud with Crazy Frog. Alas, he’s now a matured and diversified chicken- and the star of three DS titles due to be released this week. Take that, Hanna Montana!

DesertEagle’s Pick: After playing Red Faction: Guerrilla for the last few days, I wholeheartedly recommend the title to fans of action games, especially if you have a passion for excessive devastation. Jumping out of a moving vehicle covered with charges, and watching the car’s subsequent detonation into the side of an enemy structure is eternally enjoyable.

TideGear’s Pick: It’s easy to pick this week! I’ve been so eagerly awaiting
Knights in the Nightmare that it’s affected my relationships with friends and loved ones! Well, not really, but hopefully they won’t try to come between the game and I.

    Never heard of that crazy chicken.

  2. I bet those crazy chicken games are all rubbish.

  3. Sims 3 for me. Regular edition.

  4. WTF happened to prototype.

    LOLed at the Crazy Chicken/From feud.

  5. William Wallace

    What is the word on FUEL? I love me some Codemasters racing.

  6. Last Starfighter

    Is Go Play Lumberjacks the name of a real game? Sounds like an April Fool’s joke.

  7. Knights in the Nightmare looks great byut has been getting so-so reviews. Is it a SRPG?

  8. I’m going with the ALL CAPS RACING GAME.

  9. As a newly single person, I guess I should be looking at Johnny Bravo Date-O-Rama.

  10. Knights in the Nightmare

  11. So are the El Pollo Loco Restaurants.

  12. I haven’t a good racer in a while. Maybe Fuel will be what I need.

  13. NO PSP games?

  14. Red Faction: Guerrilla

  15. Is the Moorhuhn like the Zohan?

    I’m also going to get Red Faction.

  16. QuarterPounder

    I just noticed you guys have reviewed almost 200 games. Once you hit 200, you should have a give-a-way.

  17. I’m embarrassed, but Sims 3 most likely.

  18. Fuel and Red Faction

  19. loved the demo

  20. No work means no games 🙁

  21. Red Faction: Guerrilla has me all hot.

  22. Not be, Sims is always entertaining.

  23. Red Faction looks like the rare FPS that might interest me.

  24. Adam Milecki (TideGear)

    Try the demo if you can. It’s almost like a shmup/SRPG hybrid… but not quite.
