on the shelves
Grand Theft Auto IV (and special edition) – mentioning reviews of this seems besides the point. You’ve probably already decided at this point. (I’m passing for now.) FWIW, there are workarounds for the problems people have been having with glitches, but they really need to ship a proper fix ASAP.
Iron Man is actually out today, not Tuesday, probably due to the movie. That also means there’s no reviews for it yet. Maybe I’ll just run this item next week instead since there’s nothing new that week. Maybe I’ll forget. Maybe I should stop my PS3 from Folding all day, download the demo and figure out something for myself? May is the month for Maybes.
Downloadable Game
echochrome {$10} – this is said to be really good (and has been out elsewhere for quite some time), but I haven’t played the demo yet. It’s playable on the PSP as well, which is unusual for these non-classic downloadable games. It’s much more thinking and less system capabilities.
