This week’s OTP is chock-full of
new games that we’ve been playing as well as a lot of movie-related gaming including
a possible Boondock Saints game, a Hunger Games iOS app, and the Oscar’s. OK, so there’s no Oscar video game, but we
can’t help ourselves. In other news,
Resident Evil: Raccoon City gets a release date, and OK puts a stop to the bill
that suggested taxing violent video games.
New Games: ‘Twisted Metal’, ‘Alan
Wake: American Nightmare’, ‘Hero Academy’, ‘SSX [demo]’
