Not only are dictators of the Roman Republic unlucky come mid-March, so are now-gen console owners. With a single release for 360 and PS3 owners, gamers seeking novel diversions are going to have to look toward their Wii’s, portable systems and PC’s. Et tu Microsoft?

DesertEagle’s Pick: Although many games have tried to successfully meld action and puzzle elements, Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure looks to be triumphant in it’s execution. A subtle mix of Wario-ish platforming and Planet Puzzle League block switching has me quite interested.
TideGear’s Pick: Several nice low-profile releases this week! I can’t resist a good action/puzzle game, I just can’t! It makes you think! It makes you act! Weird hybrid gameplay concepts and an amusing storyline make Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure my pick, this week.
A couple of decent bundles this week. How much is the PSP/PoP double pack going for?
As a Suikogeek, I’ll be picking up Suikoden Tierkreis. Ever play any of them, guys?
No trackmania love? C’mon guys!
Henry Hatsworth, I presume!
SingStar Queen
Hell, yeah! Greatest band ever!
Wow, no 360 love at all. Time for some DS love.
Have you guys lost your freaking MINDS?!?!
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is out this week!!!
Merchants of Brooklyn?
You get to sell crack? Sign me up!
Why does Microsoft have to be Brutus? 😉
Henry Hatsworth
Scrabble for PSP, I love that game. Lets hope the AI isn’t Harvard smart or junior high school stupid.
Resistance Retribution, I’m surprised that you didn’t give that the nod, DE
Resistance for me also.
Everyone knows its Sony.
I have it for iPhone and love it.
Lets get ready to….
…wait for Ready 2 Rumble to drop to $20…
GTA, Chinatown
Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume
Am I the only one completely offended by your username?
Agreement two weeks in a row guys? I can’t beleive it!
Im looking forward to Rune Factory: Frontier
Come for the platforming, stay for the puzzling!
no, just no.
Singstar- Beatles would take that claim.
Why have I never heard of Black Sigil: Blade of the Exiled???
A hot wheel is going to fly off that track and crack the DS screen. Watch out, it’s a trap!
I’ll be getting this. Can’t wait.
Yes, I played the first two game when they were released. I remember having some difficulty finding the first game at release.
Recently, I downloaded the PSN version of the original game for PSP/PS3.
Did I overlook that one? I played through the demo and found it enjoyable, but not great. The weapons seemed really underpowered- it would take about 20 rounds to drop a Chimera.
Still it was a great adaptation of the game to a portable machine, and the music was great.
Have you seen this?

Dumbest title of the year.

GTA Chinatown. Hope it doesn’t disappoint.
Hope Valkyrie Profile turns out good!
I hear it’s frustratingly hard.
