Console Releases for week of 5/3

[Queasy]

Links go to Metacritic.

I almost like weeks like this because it makes putting these posts together easier. But then I think of how awful games Night at the Museum and The Destiny of Zorro must be and long for the Holiday period...

Though, I am interested to find out how well Jagged Alliance for the DS turned out...

The fact that Night at the Museum garnered a sequel is bad enough. The fact that there's a game based on the movie makes me wonder if the human race is really worth saving.

Why in the world isn't patapon on PSN? That would be an awesome PSN game.

Jagged Alliance DS looks interesting, it's based on JA 1 (not 2) which I've never played. Hopefully they have the merc banter which was a big part of JA.

They are selling it both at retail and through PSN. Link

I think he means why can't he play it on his PS3.

I've wondered the same thing about all of the PSP games that are available on PSN. I guess they don't want to risk cannibalizing PSP sales. I have no interest in getting a PSP but I wouldn't mind playing some of the PSP games available on PSN.

ack, you're right. I read UF's post wrong.

Yeah, I would totally love an HD PS3 downloadable version of Patapon

Broken Steel doesn't count as a release? I know it's DLC, but I'm more excited about that then anything here and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone.

Already talked about here. I tend to only include full retail releases and not DLC releases. The only exception to that so far has been GTA IV: The Lost and Damned.
