New games out this week
Friday, 09 May 2008 17:03
Major League Eating: The Game is the main game this week. Ok, it isn't, but it is probably the funniest.
With the Grand Theft Auto IV furore starting to die down a tad, other games have begun to leave the safety of their boltholes, peeking out into the ruined wastelands of retail.
This week the Wii sees a bumper crop of games for the Nintendo enthusiast. Prominent among these are Toki Tori, World of Goo, Castle of Shikigami III and Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.
The latter is released on virtually all platforms, incidentally.Oh, and don't forget Major League Eating: The Game, of course.
Not many other games stand out. The Xbox 360 and PS2 sees Rocketmen: It Came From Uranus, while the PC gets Stronghold Crusader: Extreme.
The PS2 gets Chaos Wars, the DS gets, curiously, a version of Myst. Other than that, not much really this week.
