This week’s releases 17-21 November
Much like the Bold and the Beautiful drama series, the release schedule of great games this season appears endless. Although i have not read any reviews yet my vote for Game of the Week goes to Left 4 Dead. The Valve name behind this game guarantees quality. After playing the demo on my 360 i was sold on the game and i can’t wait to experience the zombie onslaught on numerous cold, winter nights with 3 more well-armed friends online.
Rock Band 2, the disc only, is another major game suitable for gatherings be it with couples or with testosterone only band mates. As long as there is enough alcohol most people would not even tell the difference. The ability to transfer almost all of the songs, for a small fee, from the first game should persuade current owners of the game to make the jump to RB2. I have only found a 360 release so i am not sure whether the PS3 is getting this at the same time. Feel free to let me know about that.
Last but not least, in case you were thinking what family/girl friendly game to buy look no further than Locoroco 2 on the PSP. Who says that games are only about violence? I really liked the original game.
