[New releases is your weekly look at all the hot new titles coming out this week.]
The big title out this week is Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (X360, PS3, PC). As you can tell from the above video, Bad Company 2 is a lot more focused on skills rather than pure luck. Also, don't forget to use back/select when you're playing. Seriously.
The other biggie this week is easily Mega Man 10. The blue bomber is back to fight evil robots terrorizing humanity. A lot more features are thrown into this retro-style game including the super easy mode.
What's looking sw33t to all of you this week, Dtoiders?

Just got Megaman 10 on Wii. Don't have time to sit down and play through the thing, but I just spent an hour checking out all the different stages. Game is nuts. Also, Sheep Man's level is absolutely bonkers. No other way to describe it.
I love the Bad Company 2 demo. I killed many MW2fags, surely. I'm not pro at Bad Company or anything, but I could tell certain people were used to MW2 by their playstyle. They died. A lot.
Build a Bear Workshop is easily the biggest release this week. I hope it has multiplayer and I can build bears online with other bear builders building bears online. That'd be the best.
I already bought MM10 and am loving it so far. Beat Sheep Man and Pump man.
I'll probably rent BFBC2 to see if it's actually worth all the commercials.
'How not to be a noob in BFBC2' video was very good. Particularly the bit about how retarded it is to be on a team that is supposed to be attacking and moving forward but is sabotaged by morons in gilly suites trying to make AWP shots.
It has been hilarious during the demo to blow up every tree around them and trap them in their own base.
The entire point of having different kits, is to have different tools that help you respond to changing dynamics in a battle.
If you start the game and end the game, all playing the same class, any class - you are an obvious noob.
People who take a tank, to go for a cab ride to arm a bomb. Hop out alone and are killed instantly. And now that tank is a gift to the enemy?
Personally I hope there is an achievement in the game where these people are hung at dawn as traitors. Is it asking to much to ask developers to include a cut scene at the end of the round of these people's names and them being executed?
Or perhaps just kick people from the server after they have stood in the same spot for 5 minutes doing nothing?
Loved that BC2 video. It essentially stated every single thing that annoyed me about the people playing the BC2 demo. Sure, it was fun knifing 4 recons in a row on defense, but when these dumbasses are on my team, it's just unbearable. Doesn't help that I can't tell them that bullets *gasp* actually FALL in BC2!
Ah well, I guess they gotta keep that K/D ratio up or something.

It annoys me I never played the original, but whatever, game looks awesome.
BFBC2 100% tomorrow but that really depends on Sony for me getting to play it or not :(
I'm gonna have to learn more with this game and a PS3 (BETTER SOLVE IT SOON, SONY!).
HHHHHNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG!

And you saps will all be playing BFBC2. Losers.

Wait...
Seconded.
Damn you, Capcom. Just...damn you.

BUT I GOTTA KEEP MY K/D RATIO UP
BC2 is a no brainer also.
Ah well, I guess they gotta keep that K/D ratio up or something.
