Would you look at that - it's Monday again. I guess that means that it's time for another Release List:
PS2: Naruto Ultimate Collection Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
PS3: Armored Core For Answer Pure Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
PSP: B-Boy Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Yggdra Union
360: Armored Core For Answer Battle Fantasia Pure Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
Wii: Igor Rebel Raiders Star Wars: The Force Unleashed TNA Impact! Mega Man 2 (VC) Strong Bad Episode 2 (WiiWare)
DS: Animal Paradise Di-Gata Defenders Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen Igor Line Rider 2 Unbound Red Bull BC One Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Unsolved Crimes
PC: Crysis Warhead Everlight Pure S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky The Witcher Enhanced Edition Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
There's exactly one game I'm grabbing this week. Take a guess. I dare you. Well, if you guessed Dragon Quest IV for the DS, award yourself with a cookie or something. Additionally, I think I'll be grabbing Warhammer Online as well. We'll see.
What are you buying this week?

I was planning to pass on The Force Unleashed until I saw that Toys 'R Us is giving away a free $20 gift card with every copy for the 360 or the PS3. Now I'm going to be studying reviews like this one a lot more carefully. I'm also planning to get Crysis: Warhead, and although I already own The Witcher and can supposedly receive all the enhanced content via free patch, I'm seriously considering picking up the boxed version. -Autistic Angel

Bought Rock Band 2 yesterday, and will be grabbing the wireless drumset this week if I can find them. Tempted by DQ IV, but my DS is out of commission right now.

Only 1 game for the Virtual Console this week but it's a great one; Mega Man 2 [NES]. I haven't played it myself, but I've been told by my classic gaming buddies that this is quite possibly the best Mega Man title ever released. This weeks Wiiware games are Strong Bad Episode 2: Strong Badia the Free and Potpourrii.
I'll be buying Star Wars The Force Unleashed, but I'm currently not sure if it will be the 360 or Wii version. I'm leaning towards the Wii version due to the mplay, but my final decision will likely be based upon which version reviews are more favorable for. If reviews are good for both I might just pick up both.
[Edit] Oh crap I didn't realize The Wicher Enhanced and DQIV were out this week. This will probably effect my decision to buy 2 Star Wars games.

Will likely end up with SW: TFU (360) and Crysis Warhead (waiting to hear if the Steam version has install limits or not).

Hopefully the RB2 guitar. I'll pick up SW:FU and maybe even Pure at some point, most likely with trade-ins or when they drop in price.

And so begins the onslaught... I will limit myself to two games this week and only get Crysis Warhead and Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, both for the PC. Oh, and I guess I've already bought the whole season so I won't count Strong Bad Episode 2 for the PC.

[PC] Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
What are you talking about? It was there the entire time.  And yes, Rock Band 2 was there last week (after somebody mentioned it to me anyway). Any other Sunday releases this week that anybody knows about? I for one am tired of them.

this was a close call after reading the review, but with RB2 yesterday and warhammer this week... and 4 games coming in October, I doubt I would get to play it

After last week's flurry of NHL 09 and Rock Band my wallet needs some oxygen, so nothing for me. Unless something really blows me a way in the next few weeks I won't need to buy anything for a couple of months as the two games above will keep me busy for a long, long time.

I'm still in on Star Wars: Force Unleashed and very in on DQ IV. I may do Pure, if the reviews are very good. If the reviews are sort of good, I'll wait for a price drop. Otherwise, out.

What are the differences from the RB1 guitar?

Rock Band 2 and hopefully the RB2 guitar as well. I just ordered one from DeepDiscount for $59, but I think that might be a price error, we'll see if they honor it. I don't think they'll even ship it. I can't find the bloody things anywhere. Including Newegg, Bestbuy, Amazon, Buy, no one seems to have them listed. I'd like to know WTF is going on with them.
Next big purchase (barring a surprise) will be Hell's Highway.

DRAGON QUEST IV! It's finally here this week!  I'm also likely to snag Rock Band 2 in the near future, and I have to admit that Yggdra Union on the PSP is sorely tempting. Also, Warhammer was utterly fantastic in beta and is very, very tempting to run with for a while.

i picked up stalker on friday, and am watching my gamefly queue for sw:fu. despite the $20 card, i can't justify a game that short with the issues i have read about right now.
dq 4 is a sure eventuality, but not at the moment. i am waiting for reviews on crysis warhead. patching up for a second go around in witcher. anyone know if your save games will transfer over?

I already bought Stalker:CS, and I almost certainly will get Witcher Enhanced. I actually gave a thought to Warhammer online as my first ever foray into an MMO, but then I came to my senses and realized I don't need another addiction.

Only 1 game for the Virtual Console this week but it's a great one; Mega Man 2 [NES]. I haven't played it myself, but I've been told by my classic gaming buddies that this is quite possibly the best Mega Man title ever released.
They may be right. I also really like Mega Man 3, but I played 2 a lot more and I still hum the songs from time to time. I used to find it fun to try to defeat the various bosses with only the default blaster.
