Heads-up: What's new this week

FeaturePosted 20/07/2010 - 12:26pm GMT+1

A look ahead to Friday's new releases.

Welcome to Heads-up, our weekly feature which gives you an at-a-glance run-down on the games you'll be able to buy or rent this weekend. Every Tuesday we'll pick out the best of the bunch, link to our reviews and previews and keep you in the video game loop so you have enough time to pre-order for Friday's post. Time to splash the cash.

Recommended: Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of The Starry Skies - DS

We didn't love the DS exclusive entry in the Dragon Quest series as much as some people, but it's still a brilliantly made RPG. With a highly refined battle system and some of the most impressive visuals seen in a DS RPG it's a game questing fans will lap up. It's got co-op play too, if you fancy fighting monsters with friends.

And the rest…

Cats and Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore - DS

You mean the XBLA game? As in the same XBLA that never gets mentioned on here because it gets its own section :)

I've been looking for an artist to draw the comic/graphic novel I've been writing for several months but I can't find anyone I can afford. The best rate I got was 75 euros a page... so it's on hold!

You see it a lot with artists that get lazy and just re-hash their work - I remember when everyone used to go on about how great Rob Liefelds art work was in the mid to late 80's when he was penciling New Mutants and X-force - I thought he was crap - every character had exactly the same face and facial expressions - and even his work like Youngblood after he left Marvel and co-founded Image was crap and all still had the same faces! (Jim Lee, Whilce Portacio and Marc Silvestri's work all blew his out of the water imo) /rant :)
