Next week's a good 'un for new releases, with lovelies including curious spin-off Persona 4 Arena, music 'em up Sound Shapes, the PC editions of The Amazing Spider-Man and Hero Academy, jetpacking shooter Hybrid, space 4X game Legends of Pegasus, and other doodads.
We're sitting pretty in the summer lull, with only a few new games coming out next week, but a pretty nice few games. We'll be getting co-op-y tower-defense-y action-y game Orcs Must Die! 2, Kingdom Hearts 3D, XBLA zombie 'em up Deadlight, the PC revamp of Death Rally, and more.
Next week will bring the PC edition of Prototype 2, Kinect catapult 'em up Wreckateer, a little Foosball, boss battle 'em up Malicious, and a few other odds and ends.
What's coming out next week? Very, very little. We're getting musical doodad Dyad, the revamped Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD on XBLA, 3DS action-RPG Heroes of Ruin, PC horror adventure Anna, and... some other stuff.
Next week's a sporty one, between NCAA Football 13 and two other, more forgettable sport 'em ups. We'll also see the launch of Frogger Hyper Arcade Edition, Quantum Conundrum's console editions, Rainbow Moon, and the PC edition of Babel Rising.
Pokémaniacs, get your calendars out and draw a big circle around October 7. That's the day revamped Poké 'em ups Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 will launch for DS, Nintendo announced today, as well as 3DS augmented reality tie-in Pokémon Dream Radar.
Next week's new releases include Spec Ops: The Line, tie-in game The Amazing Spider-Man, the twice-delayed PC edition of Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, the London Olympics game, the PC edition of Penny Arcade episode 3.
LEGO Batman 2, MMORPG The Secret World, Civilization V's expansion Gods & Kings, Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor, the latest annual Magic: The Gathering, and Portal co-creator Kim Swift's Quantum Conundrum are among next week's new releases.
Next week will bring Lollipop Chainsaw from Grasshopper, post-apocalyptic action-RPG Krater, PulzAR, Gravity Rush, expandalone Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion, Dirt Showdown for consoles, and more.
Given that E3 is next week, the lineup of new releases is rather yet, at the same time, surprisingly full. We'll be getting Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown, Inversion, Dungeonbowl, Bang Bang Racing, and some other odds and ends.
