Filed under: , , , , ,



Ahh, can you smell that? That's the smell of a new quarter, when companies realize they have three whole months before they have to report their profits again and so, like a lackluster Econ major, they decide not to worry about money until the last week. To that end, we've got almost nothing to report in the way of releases this week.

It's so bad that our featured game, Call of Duty 4, actually came out in 2007, but we figured that the devil we knew was better than the Monkey King: The Legend Begins we didn't.

Call of Duty was fun, but not deserving of a Game of the Year award. That slot should be filled by the Orange Box, Bioshock, or Mairo Galaxy. The single player was fantastic but the multiplayer is highly overrated.

Having never played the Orange Box, I'd still choose the Orange Box. Galaxy was great and did a lot for the Wii, but it didn't have anywhere near the kind of cultural impact that the Orange Box did.

Yeah, I suppose the Orange Box has a tendancy to win the internet.

Edit: Buy the Orange Box, fool.
