\nThe summer blockbuster movie season is in full swing, and that means we are seeing more and more movie tie-ins. This week it is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen<\/strong>, a movie dominated by CGI robots and the kid from Even Stevens but whose media campaign spent more time on Megan Fox. The game is out on every platform, and as happened last time also gets TWO DS releases – one for Autobots and the other for Decepticons. That is what we call the Pokemon factor … and it seemed to work last time, as there was just enough differentiation to make it worth getting both if you liked them.<\/p>\n

There is a pretty solid release list this week. One of the biggest games for the Wii this year, The Conduit<\/strong>, arrives this week. Dawn of Discovery<\/strong> was delayed from last week, but my shipment tracking says it is a sure thing for this week. Also coming is the sequel to the solid but overlooked Overlord<\/strong>, which also gets a DS and Wii version. Multiplatform Dynasty Warriors<\/strong> and Fight Night<\/strong> releases will thrill fighting and boxing fans, respectively, and the Japanese mega-hit franchise Monster Hunter<\/strong> for the PSP hopes to finally sell a few copies here. Check out the list!<\/p>\n
