Easily Shrek Forever After. Yeah. I mean Alan Wake? What the hell is that crap? You run around with a flash light. Red Dead Redemption? Nobody likes westerns. Super Mario Galaxy 2? Who cares about Mario these days? And the new Prince of Persia? Dude, time control is SOOO 2003....
In all seriousness it weeks like these that make wallets cringe. It might be a little easier if you own just one major home console, but every gamer has suddenly got plenty of options to spend their cash on. Do you go with the long-in-development survival horror masterpiece? The lovable plumber? The returning (and hopefully refreshed gameplay-wise) prince? Or the hotly anticipated open world of the wild west (where thank god they don't have cell phones so your annoying cousin can't constantly beg you to go to a strip club with him, then again maybe they'll just send messenger ponies or something)? It's a seriously tough decision, especially with reviews or at least buzz being extremely high. Admittedly with a wedding on the horizon I'm very much in penny-pinching mode, so I'm only going with the sure bet of Super Mario Galaxy 2 if for no other reason than I tend to get bored of Rockstar games at about the 12 or so hour mark, I haven't really enjoyed a POP game since the 2003 version, and survivial horror usually just annoys the hell out of me rather than giving me a good scare or a geniuinely fun gameplay experience (Resident Evil 4 is pretty much the only survival horror game I have truly enjoyed). But I certainly at least intend to check all these games out and will let you know my thoughts as soon as I get my hands on them.
What if you are way too broke for a $50-$60 game? Well, if you have a 360, I would highly reccomend spending a measly 5 dollars to download a great remake of one of the all time classic adventure games-The Secret of Monkey Island as I plan to. This is one of the greatest comedy adventures ever, period, and well worth a fiver.
Ok, so Nathan Fillion is not Green Lantern or Captain America. But how about another Avenger? Strongly rumored to be a lock to play Hank Pym, aka Ant Man, which admittedly might have a little to do with the fact that Joss Whedon is likely directing Avengers. Granted, Hank Pym is arguably the most messed up Avenger, having career highlights that include hitting his wife, creating Ultron, a psychotic killer robot that nearly kills the Avengers on a regular basis, and more recently making a murderous clone of Thor. Not the greatest track record, but I'd like to see Fillion tap his darker side, which he hasn't really done since his short stint on Buffy. Of course, the movie(s) will probably just gloss over most of Pym's darker moments....
All right, that's it for today, but should be back in the next day or two with... something. Til then here's your TRAILER OF THE WEEK: The Adjustment Bureau
