June is by far the weakest month of the year, so far, for games. There’s hardly anything to really get excited about, especially after the early, negative reviews of Alpha Protocol. On with the releases:

I’m interested in Alpha Protocol but want to wait for all the bugs to get squashed and a price drop on Steam.
Otherwise, I’m curious about War For Cybertron and Singularity and Peace Walker, but not in any rush to buy them. I’m definately NOT buying Disgaea Infinite anytime soon since I have yet to even come close to putting enough time into the first 3!
Transformers: War for Cybertron is in my Gamefly queue.
Please, let me breathe this month!
