May Releases

Yay, it’s the monthly releases, yay! May has a very solid group of offerings. Never mind the Halo Reach Beta, let’s get to some actual real life games:

Week of May 3rd
Iron Man 2
Autobahn Polizei – As these two releases show, it’s a fool’s game to go up against a Halo game, even if it is in beta.

Week of May 10th
Lost Planet 2
Skate 3

Week of May 17th
Shrek Forever After
Red Dead Redemption – May certainly wasn’t looking promising until this came along. I know Nat is interested in Red Dead Redemption and after seeing the multiplayer video he posted, I have to admit I’m intrigued as well.
Alan Wake– On the other hand, Alan Wake has been getting a lot of buzz and may be a strong contender for a pick-up this month.
Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands– Another strong franchise just in time for the movie later this summer.
Split / Second– Quite a strong week for the 360.

Week of May 24th
Blur– I think a lot of Blur will be getting played around these parts.
UFC Undisputed 2010

Week of May 3rd
Reader Rabbit Kindergarten– The kids love Reader Rabbit games on the computer, I’m surprised it’s taken this long to get one on the Wii. (At least this is the first time I’ve seen them on the Wii)
Iron Man 2

Week of May 10th
Winter Sports 3– Not a whole lot of games for the Wii this week, but if you’re interested in new peripherals, this is your week, especially if you’re in the market for gold Wii accessories.

Week of May 17th
Boot Camp Academy
Trauma Team
Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands

Week of May 24th
Super Mario Galaxy 2– Yes, day one purchase here for me. I can never get enough Super Mario Galaxy.
Trackmania

Week of May 3rd
Iron Man 2
Picross 3D
Dementium II– Seems like this game has been on the new releases list for the last few months. Will it ever come out?

3D Dot Game Heroes– Been hearing a lot of buzz for this game. I would imagine this will be right in Brock’s wheelhouse.

Super Bike World Championships SBK– The PS3 didn’t want to get left out of the fun this May. This is a pretty solid week.
