[New releases is your weekly look at all the hot new titles coming out this week.]
This week sees the release of The Saboteur for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. We reviewed the long awaited title over the weekend and thought it was worth the purchase. Also out this week is the new The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks for the DS. It's Zelda and it's pretty good.

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.

Getting The Saboteur if it pops up on Steam tomorrow as it should. If it doesn't I will probably wait a while hoping it does, but get it by Friday retail if not.
For the PC gamers interested with the saboteur, do not buy it unless you are equipped with NVIDIA cg. The game is nuked on ATI CG http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/346070.page no patch yet and the workaround (running on 1 single CPU, makes the game unplayable.
Not only EA closed Pandemic once and for good and they even manage to f**k up their last game. Lovely.
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Also probably will check out The Saboteur after all, but I will need cash.

Before you start telling me to find a new hobby, did you play Phantom Hourglass? :(
If the dungeon design in spirit tracks is anything like hourglass, I can safely say I will be passing on this one...
