Today game releases: Boom Blox, R-Type Command

Weekly Features


Boom Blox Logo

Boom Blox (Wii)

The word on the street is that the game is actually pretty good. Part puzzler, part virtual playground and part party game, if you use to throw your toys down the stairs to see what happened to them Boom Blox might be for you. This is the first of a three game deal made by Spielberg and EA, perhaps things aren’t going to be as bad as everyone envisioned.

R-Type Command (PSP)

Side-scroller shooter turned into a tactical game might sound crazy at first. But with the Irem name on the case things become believable. Was this transition successful or should R-Type stay true to his roots and keep the arcade gameplay? If you want to find out without spending money, try downloading the demo for your PSP available at store.playstation.com.

That’s all the worthwhile games released today and this week. Next week looks pretty empty, so keep on playing GTA IV.
