MEGAMonday New Releases for the week of 11/26/07
EXTRA, EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!
CRAPTASTIC WEEK FOR GAMING FOLLOWS NON-DENOMINATIONAL HOLIDAY INVOLVING GROSS DISPLAYS OF GLUTTONY AND DECEASED WINGED ANIMALS
Last week, the gaming industry dished out one fine platter of headliners in an attempt to pry gamers away from their Thanksgiving-day shenanigans. This week, though, we’ve been served a meager helping of lackluster leftovers even the family dog couldn’t stomach.
The only thing that looks even remotely interesting is the DS title with the sumptuous, intergalactic polyhedrons called Geometry Wars: Galaxies, which was released last week on Wii anyway. Also, at this point, Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords ceases to amaze as it seems like Sierra Entertainment won’t ever stop porting it to other consoles. Oh…and…uh….Boogie is out again with a 3D glasses-enabled DS version this week……….
What’s more to ignore are three new games that arrive Monday on Wii’s Virtual Console: Double Dribble (500 points), Vegas Stakes (800 points) and Ecco Jr. (800 points). Xbox Live Arcade hails to Atari’s Asteroids and Asteroids Deluxe, which are bundled into one keen bulging package (400 points) this Wednesday.
Look at the lot, commence with the comments, display your disapproval (awe at almost-alliterations).
No new video game releases this Wednesday; take the time this day to pitch out the leftover casseroles you’ve been rationing since last Thursday. This means you, tubby. Enough with the turkey sandwiches already.

Cruis’n? As in, another in the Cruis’n USA/World/Exotic series? Those games aged HORRIBLY, but at least you got a chick with giant tits giving you your trophy.
Man, how awesome would a real life ‘Cruisin’ USA’ be, that would span a true to size course from California to New York or Miami or some shit…actually it would probably be pretty boring, but hey man, it could be cool.
Morty, I don’t think that’s the same franchise as the Cruisin’ [Location] games. It doesn’t have the second I in the name. I used to love playing those games because you never had to worry about braking.
And yeah, that would be super boring. Imagine driving for five hours through desert. That’s what it’d be like going from L.A. to Phoenix, and that’s not even a quarter of the way across the country.
Cruis’n is a spiritual sequel to the classic racing games you two are thinking about, Cruis’n USA, Cruis’n World and Exotic. It’s a Wii exclusive too.
Personally, I’m a San Francisco Rush kind of guy, Midway’s other arcade racing series.
The Cruis’n games were so fucking awesome. They were the only game in which you could pop a wheelie with your car and drive over someone.
SF Rush was sick too. Remember those arenas where you could do tricks and stuff? So boss.
I seriously only really remember the chick with the big tits dancing with the trophy while squeezing here jubblies together as tight as possible. Oh, and bird shit.
