Heads-up: What's new this week

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.

Worth a look

While a huge improvement over the original game, the psychotic duo still haven't quite managed to get their act together. Visually quite brilliant and with some shocking moments, it's worth experiencing, but don't expect it to be topping your games of the year list come December.

Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days - Xbox 360, PS3 and PC

And the rest…

Theatre of War: Kursk - PC
Thomas & Friends: Hero of the Rails - DS and Wii
