Week ending the 16/aug/2009
A modest number of new releases arrive this week, catering largely for casual gamers with the likes of gardening and driving theory reference titles and the first in Koch Media’s As Seen On TV range.
However, hardcore sports fans will still be flocking to stores for EA's Madden NFL 10, the latest instalment in the long-running American football series. A range of new additions and refinements will keep fans hooked, while the developers have gone to great lengths to make the game accessible to newcomers.
Also due for release this week is Ready Steady Cook: The Game (Koch), Driving Theory Training 2009-2010 Edition (Atari) and Gardening Guide: How To Get Green Fingers (Koch).
No VGChartz's news this week, so you will have to directly check for the 14th Aug 09 on the release page for the complete release list (nothing much than already cited above though...)
