There’s not a lot out this week, but the quality should more than make up for the quantity. Borderlands 2 is set to pick up where the critically-acclaimed original left off. One of the most exciting and popular new franchises this console generation, Borderlands thrilled fans with RPG-infused action and a distinct art style. Fighting game aficionados will want to pick up the Street Fighter 25th Anniversary Collector’s Set. In addition to the great games in the series, this bundle includes a documentary, soundtracks, an art book, and a statue of world warrior Ryu (it lights up!).
Any of you picking up new games this week?
There’s also a special anniversary edition of Kirby coming out for the Wii. Looked pretty cool, but I didn’t have time to play it this past weekend so I don’t know how it actually is. There seemed to be a bunch of updated past versions of the game on the disc, and perhaps something new as well. Either way Kirby is always fun to play.
I will be getting Borderlands 2 within the month…hopefully. The three games I must have are BL2 Forza Horizon and Far Cry 3. Assassins Creed 3 is another but slightly lower on my scale.
