RETAIL BIZ: Out This Week

Disney’s elite guinea pigs bring gaming forward in this week’s new releases

This Friday marks the games industry’s first step into the next stage of 3D gaming. Disney releases the first title to use stereoscopic 3D technology, while a variety of other new games keep more traditional consumers happy.

Disney’s G-Force hits the shelves to complement the release of its silver screen counterpart. Delivering the film’s antics to fans on a variety of platforms, the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions are notable for being the first stereoscopic 3D games to hit retail.

Other notable releases this week include Puzzle Kingdoms (Zushi), Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis (Koei) and Code Of Honour 3: Rise Of The Desert Devil (City Interactive).

Nintendo's Wii Sports Resort Stays Relaxed at No1

03/Aug/2009

Nintendo’s ‘Wii Sports Resort’ still rests comfortably at No1 this week with an increase of 6% in sales.

Nintendo also claim the No2 spot thanks to the brilliant stamina of ‘Wii Fit’ jumping up from No4.

The next three places are held by EA with ‘Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10’ staying on par at No3, ‘Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince’ moving down to No4 and ‘Fight Night Round 4’ bouncing back to No5.

Activision-Blizzard’s ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ drops a place to No6 and EA’s ‘The Sims 3’ regains No7.

THQ fight their way back into the Top 10 thanks to ‘UFC 2009: Undisputed’ at No8 and EA’s fifth title in the Top 10 comes in the form ‘EA Sports Active’ at No9.

Ubisoft’s ‘Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood’ rounds off the Top 10 and the only new release to make it into the Top 40 this week is film tie-in ‘G-Force’ featuring Disney’s secret agent guineapigs sneaking in at No26.

It seems ironic that the perfection which was Killzone 2, made for the perfection which is the PS3 comes from such a casual country.

Of course this irony is lost on you because you secretly love the Xbox 360 like Kantor does.



Tease.

Your Xbox 360 fanboyism disapointed me a long time ago Zlejedi!

You have your reasoning backwards. The Cell is perfect and therefore the games which are designed to run on it are perfection. Since Killzone 2 was designed for the perfection which is the Cell, it is therefore perfect.



Tease.
