New for the week of Emergence Day: |
5:00 AM on 11.06.2006 |
It has finally come ladies and gentleman, Emergence Day. From what every single person out in Internet Land and beyond have been saying about this game, it looks like it will crush Halo 2. Sales wise at least.
A nice selection of games are also out this week. Another SOCOM for the PS2 and PSP. Another Tony Hawk game. Guitar Hero 2 is out this week officially (I got it in last Thursday!). And hmmm, something is missing. Oh, right, not a single new GameCube game out this week. I know the Wii is right around the corner, but it's a shame to see Nintendo abandoning it so soon (They pretty much abandoned it over 4 months ago, really).
Also, from what it looks like in the email I got from my suppliers, I'm going to be able to order some PS3 and Wii stuff this week. For the PS3: the controller, Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Tony Hawk Project 8. For the Wii: Zelda Twilight Princess and Excite Truck. If I actually am able to order this stuff, expect a video where rub all of the PS3 and Wii stuff all over my crotch at the end of the week. I ain't kidding folks.
