There are a pair of interesting games coming out this week. First up is Hunted: The Demon’s Forge. I’m looking forward to this action-RPG. It’s made by the peeps at inXile (The Bard’s Tale), a company founded by Interplay OG Brian Fargo. It looks like an evolved version of Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance (one of my favorite games last generation). Fighting fans looking for action on the go will want to check out BlazBlue Continuum Shift II. Hardcore fighters raved about the first game and the second looks like it will deliver complexity that most portable fighters lack.
Any of you picking up new games this week?
I'm rather interested in checking out Hunted, but will have to settle for a rental right now.
@Ray, are you writing for the newly announced WWE 12? If the answer is yes, but you can't say, just like stop your foot 3 times or something.
No, I'm no longer writing for THQ. Just to make it like a wrestling angle, I'm going to chalk it up to creative control. Ha!
I got my hands on Hunted @ PAX (thanks to you) and I really didn't like it too much. I think it was the rep that ruined it for me and one of my brothers.
I just rented Hunted. Plan on playing it tonight.
So……horrible…..can't…..go……on…….playing……
Did you buy it yet?
Not yet. Doing it when I get paid Friday.
It made me curious. In my general area there is nowhere to rent a game. The Blockbuster's are closed and there is a small local mom and pop place but I don't think they have rented games since the N64.
Luckily we have a Hasting's Entertainment and we still have our Blockbuster in the city I work in. It takes me 5 minutes to get to work now but I live in a different city and there are at least 2 small video stores and 1 BlockBuster there. Sherman and Denison touch, but each has a Super Walmart (6.2 miles from each other) and everything the other town has.
No Red Box by you?
What is Hunted and why should I play it?

I've been wanting to play Dark Alliance for a while now. I even tried useing a "copy", but the 360 will not read it. If only I still ad the games, and hope my younger brothers haven't A) broken them or B) sold it for pot. Really miss these games.
@Ray
If it was started by a Black Isles Studio member I might care more. Interplay owes a lot of it's success to them.
