And we're back from an extended break. In order to celebrate our triumphant return to the internets, here's a list of games that are out this week! Wait a minute... | Playstation 3 | Xbox 360 | Nintendo Wii | | ... | ... | •Baroque
•Mini Copter Adventure Flight | | PSP | Nintendo DS | Playstation 2 | | •World Championship Cards | •Fab 5 Soccer (Sorry, this isn't a game with The Beatles, it's a shitty budget title)
•Plushees | •Arcana Heart
•Baroque |
Looks like the release list is taking a break this week too... HOWEVER! There are two big releases this week that fall outside my realm of coverage. The first is Sony's long-awaited US release of the new DualShock 3 controller. The new controller adds rumble back into the controller and makes your PS3 controller not feel like a cheap piece of plastic. I got mine last night and I must say it's a definite improvement over both the Sixaxis and the DualShock 2. I highly recommend any PS3 owner to get one as soon as you can. Also, here's a list of games that have vibration support at the moment. More will be coming in the future with game patches. In addition, the DS3 supports vibration on all PS2 and PS1 games.  That is not my pick of the week, though. My pick of the week easily goes to Ikaruga on Xbox Live Arcade. That's right, Treasure's classic (and very hard to find) vertical shooter has been ported to Xbox Live Arcade and will be selling for the ultra-low price of $10. If you have an Xbox 360 and don't buy this game, I will be extremely disappointed in you because Ikaruga is one of the greatest games ever created and is something that everyone needs to experience it at least once. Sure, you could be old-fashioned and buy the Dreamcast or Gamecube version, but you'll be paying at least $30 or $40 more for a disc and a case. Not worth it just for that. Come on, you know you want it. Drop your fear of digital distribution and experience one of the greatest games of all time.

Thank god the DS3 is finally out. I couldn't believe it when I found out force feedback wasn't in the PS3's controllers. Good to see games are supporting it as well. Goodbye Sixaxis!

The DS3 is really incredible. I can't see how I lived without it.

Ikaruga... "one of the greatest games of all time".
truth

I got my Ikaruge for GC for $30 CIB. Good thing I did, because I don't have a 360 yet :-/

Yeah, if you're lucky, you can get the Gamecube version of Ikaruga for $40 or $50 (the store I work at sells it for $55!). Try as much as $100 used (!) for the imported Dreamcast version.
$10 on Xbox Live Arcade is an incredible deal for this game. BUY IT.

"Yeah, if you're lucky, you can get the Gamecube version of Ikaruga for $40 or $50 (the store I work at sells it for $55!)."
A store here sold out all their Ikarugas for 1.50$ a piece. I was not fast enough on the "order"-button
