New this week: Oct. 27

There are a ton of new releases this week, but most of them include the words iCarly or Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader, so we'll focus on the big stuff.

DJ Hero (360/Wii/PS3) - The mash-up brother to Guitar Hero is finally out today, complete with the turntable peripheral. It'll set you back $120 for the standard edition, but check out this mash-up. It could certainly be worth the dough.



Tekken 6 (360/PS3) - The classic non-Street Fighter or Soul Calibur fighting game returns. Why should you be interested? You get to fight against a panda bear and a kangaroo. And a robot.



Ratchet & Clank Future: A Clank In Time (PS3) - Yet another game in the Ratchet & Clank series, a platform game that has done very well for Sony over the years.



Hasbro Family Game Night 2 (Wii, DS) - The Wii introduces even more Hasbro games hosted by Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head, including Bop It, Connect 4x4, Operation, Jenga, and Pictureka.



SpongeBob's Truth Or Square (Wii, DS, PSP) - And why not, another adventure with SpongeBob Squarepants.
