New Releases 2/13-2/19: Outatime Edition

Following Dr. Emmett “Doc” Brown’s and Marty McFly’s tweaking of the space-time continuum, most of this week’s new releases seem from a different era. From a spiritual successor to 1987’s Contra, two role-playing recreations from the mid-90’s and an update to 2000’s Capcom/comic book crossover, the only thing missing is a cameo by Adol Christin and Dogi. Wait, they’re back as well? Someone shut that flux capacitor down, pronto.

The Silver Lining- Episode III: My Only Love Sprung from My Only Hate

DesertEagle’s Pick: This Valentine’s day, why not give that special someone a present bound to last longer than a box of See’s chocolates or a dozen roses? Yep, I’m talking about the gift of Denim (Powell), star of Tactics Ogre. With a subtitle like Let Us Cling Together, I can’t think of a better game to cuddle up with.

SeanNOLA’s Pick: I suppose this week is not so much about which game I’ll pick, but rather what team I’ll pick in Marvel vs. Capcom 3.  The answer? Deadpool, Tron Bonne and Spider-Man.

  1. Desert, I can’t believe you didn’t give Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation the pick. That’s one people haven’t played in this country.

  2. The Silver Lining- Episode III: My Only Love Sprung from My Only Hate is a totally made up name. I can feel it.

  3. 1 2 3 4 I’m joining the Hard Corps.

    Shoot all day, shoot all night,

    All long as I’m killing, everythings Allright!

  4. Just found out that the local game store by my apartment broke street date on MvC3. Unfortunately, I’m not anywhere near my apartment :-\

  5. Ive been hearing good things about Magicka. I assumed that this was already out. Maybe a retail release?
