New Releases 1/16-1/22: Cerberus Sackboy Edition

When Commander Shepard, Sackboy, and Adol Christin hit store shelves, you can be certain that January’s glacial griphold on new releases is finally beginning to thaw. Next week’s output of Two Worlds II, Lord of Arcana, and Dead Space 2 hopes to further that trend, offering a optimistic outlook for the upcoming year.

DesertEagle’s Pick
: Although I never had the time to fully immerse myself in LittleBigPlanet‘s construction tools, I thoroughly enjoyed playing through other player’s custom levels. With a bolstered toolset, I’m pretty eager for LittleBigPlanet‘s 2 potential. Hopefully, I’ll be inspired enough to build that pièce de résistance that’s been lingering in my head all this time.


SeanNOLA’s Pick
: I was pretty impressed with the last two Ys games which
XSEED brought to the US, and although I’ve played books 1 & 2 before,
I’m looking forward to seeing how Adol’s first adventure plays on the PSP.

  1. I’m sure LBP2 is cool and all, but Sonys intent on selling you every damn costume, tool, and knickknack isn’t for me.

  2. I’ll be waiting for the video that shows some drunk hillbilly throwing his Wiimote into the TV while playing PDC World Championship Darts 2010.

  3. Plants vs. Zombies! Is there a device that doesn’t have the game on it? My washing machine maybe.

  4. I wonder if MindJack will be any good? I would be the sucker to spend $60 to find out. Hopefully, you guys will review this before release day.

  5. If for The Toasted Sandwich of Time. I’ll probably pick up 2 copies because I love sammiches so much.

  6. Venetica is supposed to be pretty average. Thats a shame, I was looking forward to it.

  7. You know I’ve been reading and listening to these guys for months. They are game geeks but hardly platform fanatics.

  8. Animal Boxing may be the coolest concept ever. I doubt the game will live up to it though. Think about it- a match with an elephant and an giraffe or a bull and an ostrich.

  9. So far LBP 2 is just like the first. I haven’t seen many differences. I’d suggest people wait on it.
