Wow, we went from a trickle of new releases to a veritable explosion of new, decent games. From
Ninja Gaiden II to
Roogoo to the
Civilization Revolution demo (seriously, try it), there's something for everyone it seems. Hell, there's even a
fishing game
available. So many choices, so little time. The question to you is which choice will you make or, more precisely, what will you be playing this weekend?

More GTA IV for me. This weekend I'll have a ton more time than last weekend, so I'm hoping I can finish up the pigeons, stunt jumps and all the wanted missions. :D Dare I hope?
After that it's Frontlines (for a review) and College Hoops 2k6 (achievement whoring), and after those are done, pick up GRID and play the hell out of it. :D

This weekend for me: getting back into Condemned 2, finishing GTA IV, getting back into Lost Odyssey, and playing *gasp* MGS4. Busy weekend to be sure...

I am hooked on TUROK right now.
an all seriousness, the co op missions are hard as hell and you get 30 gamerscore for each of them. I beat one yesterday and need to beat 2 more.
That game is a fun MP game too. But whatever.
I will be getting it in on Ninja Gaiden 2 as well. Best game. Super hard where im at now.
Whoever said it was button mashing obviously has not passed the first level.

Purchase NG2, start Lost Planet Cononies Extreme Edition. Get back into GTA4. Last but not least Battlefield BC multiplayer. Somewhere in between take the wife to see The happening.

Good luck, Rotten Tomatoes has this movie pegged at 21% on the old T-meter. Let us know if it's any good.

I might also get in some Army of Two on the 360 if GameFly cooperates.

AoT was one of the worst games I've played on the 360. EA failed at making a shooter.

I will respectfully disagree with my colleague DJDatz. I thought Army of Two, while probably a fairly shitty single player game, made for an excellent co-op game with a friend.

Give in to the urge, MGS4 is good enough to warrant the purchase.

I'm going to be playing Grid single player (awesome racing game BTW) and may even test the online waters of Quake Wars.
I'm not 100% sure Deadliest Catch is out yet, not that I'm interested or anything... Mmm crabs...

Maybe I'll hit you up when I FINALLY get my copy of GRID...

Yeah sure, gamertags in my profile.
Grid's awesome, definately recommend it to anyone who likes racing games.

i had the urge too until i saw the nega-review on joystiq. Most of it didn't bother me until talk about how the futher you progress the less you play and the more you sit and watch. Cutscenes get progressivly longer culminating with TWO 90 MINUTE CUTSCENES! That's just silly. Temptation squelched.

All the talk of Orange Box on the fancasts has made me want to go through portal on advanced and do all the challenges. Just completed the advanced maps so i suppose its time for the challenges.
Also due to the lack of new games that have taken my interests till septemberish i have set out to try and go through so other games that are on my gamercard that are below 500G (unless they are terrible like harry potter). So it looks like ill be lending games from friends again.
