The games sure are kicking up. This week, we've got another video game adaptation of a popular action hero franchise that's launching along the movie. Can you guess which one it is?
We've also got several more big titles coming our way this week, from aliens to athletes, heroes and warriors, rockstars and (Karl's favorite) popstar. We've got them all right here for the week of August 2 through 8, so check out your games below.
Aliens in the Attic - Yes, this is the game based on the movie about a family vacation that's about to go out of this world - quite literally - when they find that aliens share their vacation spot. In the video game versions, however, you can try on the four different alien characters and lead them in the exploration of planet Earth (or at least the house they landed in) across the 15 levels scattered in 4 different locations.- Wii, DS, PC, PS2 - August 4, 2009
