This Week In Games

Yes. It’s the week that you’ve all been waiting for (and by ‘all’ I mean ‘some’). Gran Turismo 5 will finally be released this week.

But unlike a couple of weeks back, when everyone seemed to run for cover at the launch of Black Ops, it seems like the rest of the games industry, just like us, almost can’t believe that the game is actually coming out.

So there are a handful of other games being released this week, Epic Mickey, NBA Jam for the HD consoles, the new Raving Rabbids and the update of Splatterhouse. Check it out folks, and let us know what you’ll be picking up this week in the comments below.
