Another eh week for releases if I do say so myself. Biggest game is easily Mario Strikers Charged (Wii). I played the 'Cube version for a little bit and did it enjoy it. Does anyone else find it funny that when Mario goes up for a super kick, he seems to turn evil? Brave Story for the PSP also looks really good. Well, the box anyway. I don't know why, but the cover for the game is hawt.
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Im getting strikers. I saw that it came out today, but I didn't go to eb to see if my pre-order is there, because for some reason you normally cant get a game the day its released.
Haha, while I was typing, the phone rang, and it was EB games. It will be in tomorrow.
Alien Syndrome just came in the mail from gamefly. Ive played about a half hour so far, and it seems quite mediocre.
Glory Days 2 is looking quite fun , being that i used to LOVE Choplifter back on sega master system .....it looks like it's the same style, so it's gotta be great ( hopefully)
I've been playing Strikers for half a week, and it's badass. 4 stars on multiplayer is golden; 3 stars has a pinch of lag, but it's playable. Now if only the Wii had a bona fide friends system instead of friend codes.
Dungeons & Dragons: Tactics and Brave Story will hopefully be good on PSPizzle. Had a chance to play Strikers with a few friends already (one of which is a GameStop manager who was given a copy early) and although it was a blast multiplayer I'm not sure if it has staying power... it only really needs to last until Smash Brothers though.
