This Week In Games: The Last Of Us Is Here

Well there’s not a lot this week. LOL JKS, it’s The Last Of Us week everyone! Get crunk and/or hype depending on your preferences.

What this week lacks in sheer volume it more than makes up with quality. Alongside The Last Of Us comes the long awaited Animal Crossing: New Leaf — yet another compelling argument for the 3DS being the strongest console on the market right now. It’s certainly been my most played so far this year.

Anyone picking anything up this week?

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

What is it? Another reason why the 3DS is totally happening right now. It’s been a while since we’ve had a new Animal Crossing. There’s a fair amount of hype surrounding this.
Should you care? On any other week this would be the big release. Continues in the fine tradition of its predecessors.

DARK

What is it? A stealth action effort that lets you play as a vampire. Features RPG elements that allows you to build up your character as you play.
Should you care? I know very little about this, which doesn’t bode well. I’d say give it a swerve unless you’re desperate for a stealth fix.

The Last Of Us

What is it? The big one, perhaps the last hurrah for Naughty Dog on the PS3. This looks very special.
Should you care? I love what I’ve played so far. Can’t wait to get home from E3 to play more. Absolute must play. Possible GOTY candidate here.

Wonderbook: Diggs Nightcrawler

What is it? It’s another of them there Wonderbooks, with their augmented reality wizardry and whatnot.
Should you care? I suspect you already don’t really care that much, but I’m actually interested in trying Wonderbook, especially now that I have a kid. Has anyone messed around with it? I might give it a try.
