New PAL Releases Roundup up to 1st Feb
Not much to get excited about.
If you're planning to go outside tomorrow in search of new videogame fun, then you're braver than us. Then again, the alleyway that leads to your front door probably doesn't have an overflowing drainpipe hanging over it which unavoidably drenches everyone who enters or exits the building. Unless you know the cheat codes for the back door, and obviously I'm not sharing.

Review | Warhawk: Operation Omega Dawn
Oh, meagre dawn!
After Super Stardust HD and the astonishing Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Incognito Inc's Warhawk was probably my favourite PS3 title of 2007. Sure, it's little more than a arcade-style console reworking of the classic Battlefield with a fantasy sci-fi skin, but its combination of excellent visuals, refined gameplay and support for up to 32 players made it feel fresh and new on console; not necessarily better, but certainly a step removed from the best that Xbox Live has to offer, and as such, a pretty compelling purchase at the value-rific GBP 19.99 price point.

Review | NFL Tour
The pain train's comin'!
NFL Tour promises "intuitive controls" and "fast paced gameplay", which means "for stupid people" in blurb speak. Well, when it comes to American football, a lot of us are stupid. Never mind knowing the teams, how many of us know what a safety is? Probably not that many. But a game that dumbs the sport down to an approachable arcade level could actually work here. Possibly. With Superbowl XLII on Sunday to give it some context (go Patriots!), let's find out.

Game Announcements - 24th to 30th Jan
"ICO 3", Prince of Persia, more.
Thank goodness Gizmondo is coming back, having been freshly snatched away from the liquidators and currently undergoing redevelopment. Apparently the reason no one wanted the GBP 200 GPS/game machine/corkscrew originally was because "it was not fully brought to the market". This meant huge losses, though not huge enough to stop staff buying sports cars and hiring Sting for their parties. Ellie summed it all up very well back when we nearly cared. Yes, with the DS and PSP selling so badly there is definitely room for another.

Review | Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
New dawn, or old dawn?
It's become a bit fashionable in certain circles to make fun of the Wii, to the point where games can't really escape it. Present these people with a game that uses the Wii controls and they'll say it's newfangled, unnecessary nonsense. Present them with one that doesn't really bother, and they'll say that the Wii is just two GameCubes duct-taped together. Radiant Dawn is good news for people that can't get to grips with motion sensing - it doesn't use it at all. Not even one little wave or gesture.
