A look back at this weeks releases

Game review based on: demo
Game available for: News

PlayStation 3
Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust: I was planning on buying this day one for the PS3. I loved the original Al Lowe series, and even though the gameplay for Magna Cum Laude sucked, the story and dialouge was good enough. Hearing this was supposed to be an adventure type game again got my hopes up. But the review scores across the board… lowest scores ever. I never take reviews too seriously, but this is just too much. I’ll rent or get it used and hopefully soon to post a review.

PSN Downloads
Puzzle Quest: Galactrix: I was waiting for this for a while and did pick it up, but probably won’t do a full review since I have a review of the 360 demo going up very soon.

PS1 Title: Bowling: Unless you REALLY want a bowling game on your PSP get High Velocity Bowling instead, sure it’s twice as much, but well worth it.

PS1 Title: R-Type Delta: Review coming soon… after I get the R-Type Demensions review up so it might be a week or so.

PS1 Title: Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage!: The first 3 spyro games were developed by Insomniac games (Makers of Ratchet and Clank) and are really fun platformers. For 5$ this is a steal.

Demo – Savage Moon: Gameplay footage and review coming soon.

Demo – X-Men Origins: Wolverine: Check out the 360 demo from last week here.
