DesertEagle’s Pick: While I should be working my core with Daisy Fuentes Pilates, I’ll probably be exercising my vocal cords with SingStar Queen. Yep, the old Deagle likes to belt out an off-key song when not fragging foes.

SeanNOLA’s Pick: I enjoyed Fallout 3, but I really geeked out for Teenage Mutant NinjaTurtles: Turtles in Time: Reshelled at E3.  I’ve been excited forweeks, despite it’s terrible name.

TideGear’s Pick: I‘d like to believe that G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra isn’t mediocre at best, but it probably is. So, do I wan’t more aliens in my Fallout? Yes, please, Fallout 3: Mothership Zeta!

  1. I wonder if GI Joe will be even worse than the film, or gasp possibly better?

  2. Reversal Challenge, I always like those type of Othello games.

  3. Daisy Fuentes Pilates, really? Where has she been?

  4. I noticed G.I. Joe has selling for $50 instead of $60. Is that an indication that the game will be not so good?

  5. A lot of Wii shovelware, if you ask me.

  6. Is the picture from GI Joe? looks like Haze to me.

  7. Real Heroes: Firefighter looks like that PS2 Konomi game. Might be a go.

  8. Fallout 3: Mothership Zeta for 360 for sure!

  9. Hearts of Iron III didn’t get a nod from DE? Hell has frozen over.

  10. SingStar Queen, Yeah!

  11. For those interested, the PS3 Version of SingStar Queen has these songs:

    * A Kind of Magic
    * Hammer to Fall
    * Killer Queen
    * Radio Ga Ga
    * The Show Must Go On

    Both the PS2 and PS3 version have these:

    * Another One Bites the Dust
    * Bicycle Race
    * Bohemian Rhapsody
    * Breakthru
    * Crazy Little Thing Called Love
    * Don’t Stop Me Now
    * Fat Bottom Girls
    * I Want it All
    * I Want to Break Free

    * Tie Your Mother Down
    * Under Pressure
    * We are the Champions
    * We Will Rock You
    * Who Wants to Live Forever
    * You’re My Best Friend

  12. It sure is from Rise of the Cobra Hopefully, it’s better than Haze, but I’ll reserve judgment until playing it…

  13. Nothing for me this week.

  14. Man DS titles have been sucking lately.

  15. I might have to get this. 25 songs for $40 isn’t too bad…

  16. More titles, but not great ones.

  17. KurtisKillingblow

    Fallout 3: Mothership Zeta, if the reviews are good or at lest decent. I think I’ve spend over $100 on the game now.

  18. Is Ultimate Duck Hunting a sequel to the Nintendo game?

  19. Why haven’t they made a GI Joe game sooner?

  20. Strangely, I might take a look at World Championship Athletics. I like those Wii olympics games

  21. I don’t know if I have what it takes to get my Freddie Mercury on.

  22. Turtle Power!

  23. I hope you guys review G.I. Joe…

  24. You missed out on a chance to pick on a Hannah Montana game. Don’t let this happen again!

  25. Nothing exciting this week. I still need to pick up Wii Sports Resort.

  26. Where’s Adam’s pick?

  27. My pick of the week, would be saving your money.

  28. Eyepatched Monkey

    Is the title referring to (cough) ROMS?

  29. Unless Nintendo is behind Duck Hunting, it will not end well.

  30. They made a couple back in it’s hey-day. The best was Konami’s Space Harrier style arcade game, but there were also games on the Atari and C64 and 2 games on the NES (one of which was not that bad).

  31. Eyepatched, before you get all excited, remember cartridges are technically Read-Only Memory. So it’s just a (bad) reference to retro gaming.

  32. Going to look those up to find the ‘not so bad’ one…

  33. They are not, and it’s a realistic looking duck hunting game with no snickering dog.

  34. Arent carts EEPROMS?

  35. I know (GI) Joe will blow. But something in me wants it to break the trend.

  36. Hmm, lot of games, not that interest me.

  37. Nothing for me!

  38. I’ll pass on this weeks games.

  39. I found Gamestop isn’t taking preorders on this one. Weird.

  40. Mothership Zeta for me.

  41. I cant find Singstar Queen anywhere, even though it’s supposed to be out.
