New releases this week: Left 4 Dead, MK vs DC, Tomb Raider, Lips, and more  photo

My must own game for this week is Left 4 Dead. Anything with zombies in it is an instant win in my book. The game is a ton of fun and I can't wait to play some co-op with you all.

I may end up picking up Mortal Kombat vs DC and Tomb Raider Underworld this week as well. I really just want MK vs DC for the goofy story line and not for much else. Tomb Raider Underworld is also looking might hot and it's great to see my first videogame crush come back in such excellent form.

Special notes for this week: The brand new 160GB PS3 with Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is out and the first motion sensing game for the DS, Tony Hawk's Motion, is out this week too.

Hit the jump to check out the full releases with videos for most of the games. What's looking sw33t to you?

It really speaks to my character when I have the urge to pick up MKvsDc on impulse while I (regrettably) didn't act on my Gears of War Midnight Release + schwag impulse.

Left 4 Dead is getting a sure purchase from me this week, along with the Dead Kennedy's pack for Rock Band.

Getting Left 4 Dead and Banjo Nuts & Bolts this week. Dead Kennedys pack will be purchased later. Not getting anything else until Christmas due to lack of funds.

My internet is fail so I can't play L4D.

I'll be getting Luminous Arc 2(because I'm a sucker for art books), Last Remnant($40 deal at Amazon made me ok with it), and I'll be looking at Metal Slug 7. I want to play it, but I've heard rumors that the game suffers from HORRIBLE slowdown, which is lethal in Metal Slug.

Oh thank Christ this is the last week of dumping several big releases for the year. I don't think my checkbook could have taken another financial raping.

Anyway, already picked up MK vs DCU. Gonna pick up Left 4 Dead as well. Would like to pick up Shawn White, Naruto:The Broken Bond, Last Remnant and Castlevania Judgment but those will have to wait until after X-Mas.

@SuperD
Just download the demo if you're really THAT curious. I just played it today and it has now moved into my purchase list.

I would get the 160gb PS3, but it's $500, and I know if I wait 4 months it will drop in price when they announce the next SKU

L4D really is that good. It runs really well on my PC on medium/high settings (1024x768) of all things, I'm quite surprised. I love the Source engine.

L4D all the way!

"The Sims 2 Mansion & Garden Stuff"

Sounds like they are getting lazy with their titles.

Finally getting a break this week, the pocket book needs it. L4D didnt do it for me so that's off the list. I will eventually have to buy animal crossing for the old dusty wii, but not until xmas, as it will be one of the gifts i give my gf. Of course I'll wind up playing it at some point - guilty pleasure. But yeah, I'm actually happy to have a slow week for a change.

I'm thinking NFS:UC will be good, but I'm not going to pick it up for a while. Nuts & Bolts and L4D will have to keep me happy. Pretty sure I'll be ok.

So, are we going to set up a Steam Community thing for Destructoid? Or just exchange Steam ID's?

Left 4 Dead is already pre-loaded. No midnight launch bullshit necessary.

I really loved the L4D Demo, and I flippin LOVE karaoke, so Lips is going to be on my buy list.

Unfortunately, I lack funds at all, so I probably won't get them until this time next year.

Looking forward to L4D :)

MK vs DCU is glitched! I was playing through the story mode and it didn't give me some of the story achievements, but I at least got the complete story mode achievement.
