This week ‘blox‘ explode, dogs run an island, and Racer X drives exclusively onto Nintendo consoles.

Xbox 360
Nothing

Playstation 3
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Game of the Year Edition

Wii
Boom Blox
The DOG Island
Speed Racer: The Videogame

PS2
Nothing

PSP
R-Type Command

DS
Crosswords DS
Speed Racer: The Videogame

Pick of the Week: Will Steven Spielberg’s Boom Blox become
the videogame equivalent of the forgotten Artificial Intelligence or will it be
remembered as fondly as Schindler’s List? A comparison to Jaws is most likely- fun, escapist
entertainment that uses the power of the medium.  With over 300 levels, multiple types of
gameplay, and a level editor, there’s a lot of content for Wii owners.

  3. Don’t you mean the forgotten “Always”? I think everyone still remembers A.I. being not that bad!

  4. I’m think about R-Type Command; just for the figurine that comes with it, though…

  5. I thought Dog Island was about the Bounty Hunter in Hawaii. That might be a better game.

  8. I am interested in Crosswords DS. Its a Nintendo first party title, so it should be a bit petter than the usual third party shelf filler. It has word searches, too.

  10. I’ll probably get Boom Blox, but not right away. First drop to $40 or below, and it’s mine.

    I’m having too much fun with GTA right now.

  13. What’s erroneous about a list of titles coming out this week? Somebody needs to suck it up about getting a bad review about a game they worked on and move on.

  14. The women hold ‘Always’ in their hearts like I hold ‘Saving Private Ryan’.

    Maybe I should have said “The Lost World: Jurassic Park”
