Worse: it's a Breakout clone.

Nothing like yet another commercial re-hash of a fundamentally flawed game...

Wait, two Breakout clones in one week? Wow. The one with the Square-Enix name attached to it will probably sell more, and it's most likely the better game (even though it's way too easy).

I had Block Breaker on my dinosaur-crap-old computer on Windows 2.1.

What a good week! Guitar Hero: On Tour, FFTA2, Ticket to Ride, and the greatest week for Rock Band ever!

Didn't we all?

Ticket to Ride is like Catan in that I've had multiple opportunities to buy the physical version of the game but never did due to a lack of people to play it with (though now that I know how much shorter the latter is than other games, I'll probably end up buying it). I'm still completely uninterested in GH:OT, and I'll probably try FFTA2 to see if I can at least stand to play it in English - while I enjoy turn-based strategy, I have an immense dislike of forced turn order. I also don't like when it takes forever to skip through dialogue I can't read so that I can continue the battle.

Also, eww, Mega Man Star Force, and whoo, WALL-E.

Complaining about dialogue you can't read in a game you stole is bad form.

Did anyone else see Get Smart?

Where's Futurama: The Beast with a Billion Backs?

Well, I already have GH:Aerosmith and saw Hancock so let's see:

The title of 1 vs. 100 excited me until I found out it was just some stupid game show game.
Soul Calibur showing up on XBLA is sweetacular, but since I have 2 and 3 don't feel obligated to get 1. (Played a bunch of it in a SLC arcade recently, though.)
That Vesuvius RB song is free, btw.

I never finished the first Trauma Center, so I don't really want to play the new one, and I don't have a Wii or a 360, so no Magnetica or Soul Calibur for me. Also, 1 vs. 100 is a pretty stupid game show even when the "mob" (the 100) contains certified geniuses or people like Ken Jennings, so the game is probably even worse because that'd be kind of hard to do in a DS game, and also because it was an idiotic concept for a video game in the first place.

It's weird that they're apparently releasing Batman: The Movie on DVD again because I didn't think the first DVD version was out of print or anything.

I'd still buy it. It's the best one in the series (most people say.) I still play it on my Dreamcast. It's a great game. It was also one of the very few games to get a perfect '10' on EGM. That's not common, especially for a fighting game :)

I'm interested in Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, but am torn between systems. Now that I have a PS3 I'm considering gettin Guitar Hero and Rock Band stuff for it. I'm currently taking a wait and see approach because I've read that the Wii will offer downloads in the future, but I haven't seen Nintendo's solution to the storage problem yet. Also, are Guitar Hero and Rock Band guitar interchangeable on either system?

I want to see several movies including Hancock, Indiana Jones, and WALL·E, but I don't have much time for the theater now.

I'm also interested in Magnetica Twist WiiWare and enjoyed the DS version, but I have more than I have time for on PS3 now. I'm actually playing Spyro the Dragon and other downloads more than my three PS3 games.
