Can you hear it? This week, the games are calling you to arms! Whether
you'd rather pick up something state-of-the-art from Activision's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, swords and spears from Nintendo's Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn,
light sabers and blasters from LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, or even
household items from Silent Hill: Origins, there's definitely something to recruit you away from last week's releases.
 If leading armies into war is your thing, have a
look at Koei's Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War or Sierra
Entertainment's Empire Earth III. For lighthearted fun, Sega and
Nintendo are offering Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, and
Square Enix has Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker. You get the drill - this
week is big, and November is just beginning.

isn't there coming anything for the wii,ps3 lately ?
only thing ive seen for the past few weeks are pics of xbox360 game fronts
Think you need to read again at the list. There's two Wii games.
get rid of that banner now. wont fit on your layout.
seems like mozilla firefox had a problem untill I reset the catch on it.
i can read that and understand there is o verflowing of games on all consoles even on pc. the article above mentioned tons of titles just for a week, and there were lots of games for all consoles the week before and next week there will be lots more.
so in conclusion i therefore say that anybody who says there none or less games for X console is IGNORANTLY BLIND. and the worst case scenario is these kind of people are plagues in the growth of society. im a sony fan but not to the extent of being dumb and or dumba$$.
