This Week in Video Games (11/26/07)

Who wants fun? Well, there isn't as much to choose from as there was last week.

- Shadowgrounds Survivors (PC) - Why don't we just take a look at the trailer?



Who likes running backwards while shooting monsters? It looks like "Alien Syndrome," which wasn't good, so let's hope that this improves on it.

- Game Party (Wii) - Capitalizing on the success of "Wii Sports" and "Wii Play" comes "Game Party," complete with darts, table hockey, and trivia.
- Geometry Wars: Galaxies (DS) - The hugely popular Xbox Live Arcade game turns to the DS.
- Cranium Kabookii (Wii) - The board game comes to the Wii. Hide the children!
- Cruis'n (Wii) - You know, the old racing game! No, not "Daytona USA." Although that's the best theme song to a game ever.
- Boogie (DS) - See the post about the Wii release...but more compact.
- History Channel: Battle for the Pacific (360, Wii, PC) - Take part in some of the battles of WWII. Go Team Discovery Channel!
- Omega Five (Live Arcade) - Looks interesting, but who knows. At least it's got HD graphics. Could be worth a shot.
- Master of Illusion (DS) - A game that teaches you magic and card tricks that involve your DS. If only Houdini were alive today. Now that we have the DS, we truly know the true measure of a magician. Put down that PSP, David Blaine, and get to work!
- Speedball 2 Tournament (PC) - Some kind of futuristic sports game with a steel ball and rival gangs. And a TERRIBLE soundtrack. Check this out.



It's the only video I could find for this game. I mean come on - if you're going to put a soundtrack on YouTube, can there at least be lyrics?

I'm not going to lie, folks - there isn't a lot else out that's worth reporting extensively on. My sarcasm can only go so far. So here's a short list of the rest of the releases.

- Chicken Hunter (DS)
- Disney Princess: Enchanted Journey (PC)
- The Tuttles Madcap Misadventures: Starlight Starbright Charity Challenge (PC)
- Tomb Raider: Anniversary (Mobile)
- Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords (Wii)

Happy hunting, fans.
