William BagleyThe biggest week on the video game calendar?
November 4th 2007 19:59
November has just begun and, taking a look at this weeks release, you'd be forgiven for thinking Christmas has come early this year ... come to think of it, Christmas came last month. I mean, who buys decorations in October?
So anyway, we've got Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, The Simpsons game on just about every format imaginable, Guitar Hero III (which I'll be taking a closer look at later this week), Big Brain Academy on Nintendo Wii, The Lego Star Wars is complete (another game I'll be looking into for sure), and Pro Evo returns for 2008. Hell, even Dirty Dancing is getting a release this week.
In all, every format has at least five or more titles coming out, with most of the games releasing on multiple formats, and you'd suggest that most of those games will be among the end of year awards too.
And just when you think it's all over, Assassin's Creed hits the streets next week, and just before the end of the month, Mario will make his long awaited return in what could be the biggest release of all, Super Mario Galaxy.
So I guess the next question is, is this the biggest year in games we've ever had? More on that story as the year comes to a close...
