Yet another week of barely anything. Honestly, I'm shocked that the Wii was limited to only one release. :Q Ubisoft must have given their Imagine sweatshop the week off.

Afro Samurai is actually perfectly placed here. This is one of those games that would have gotten absolutely lost during the glut of the holiday releases. It is ridiculously bloody, has dynamic limb chopping and body chopping, and has previewed decently. Gametrailer link

Holy, the graphics look fantastic in that game! I like the simplicity of it too, I would much rather play that than Ninja Gaiden.
If it ever hits $20, I'm getting it.

I was going to say the same. I've never even heard of the tv show, but it looks like a pretty decent bralwer. I wouldnt be shocked if we see it 40 and under in the first month

I might have to pick up Afro Samuri. I saw the preview on X-Play last week, and it looks like they did a really good job of matching the art style of the mini-series.

I'm just waiting to see how long the actual game is. I'm not going to pay $60 if it's less than 10 hours of gameplay.

I've been looking forward to this game, thought the first season *what I saw of it* was excellent.

Pretty much, ya. It's getting ripped in reviews though. The OperationSports forum is pretty chatty about it, I'm still very interested if it doesn't suck too bad. Love those kinds of games.
