Tag by the one and only Fkusumot!


 

Why do you have zelda all huge, and the psp games all small?

Spyro is multiplatform. Its on the playstation 2.



 

mM

He made it bigger because that is a big title this month. Probably the biggest, actually of all the titiles, especially considering the install base of the ds.

leo-j, would it make you feel better if I made every game on this thread a huge box art?

I look for box art and usually grab the first one I see. Notice Viva Pinata: Party Animals is huge, too.

Not quite

It's a decent month for games. Zack and Wiki plays to old school adventure point-and-click games from the PC, which is why it is my favorite for the month. There's Zelda for the DS, a Final Fantasy for the PSP, Folklore and R&C for the PS3, and PGR4, AC6, and the Orange Box for the 360.

The holidays are a-coming.



I already played PW3, so PH, Orange Box, Zack and Wiki, and BWii. Lots of good games for all systems.



Ratchet completely pwns that list, imo. Folklore should be cool as well but the real hit is PES08 for EU on Oct 26th.
