Video Game Releases for Week of 11/29 - Avatar: The Game, Dirt 2, MX vs ATV

The week after Black Friday doesn't see much in the way of new video game releases for the PC, consoles, or handhelds.  The biggest releases are probably the two racing games Dirt 2 for the PC and MX vs ATV for the consoles.  Dirt 2 is very much worth a look for the PC because it was delayed from its original September release date to take advantage of all the graphical tweaks and additions that come with DirectX 11. 

The movie tie-in to James Cameron's much hyped Avatar movie is also released and is appropriately titled.  If you've got your PC or console hooked up via HDMI and your HDTV is 3D compatible, this game might be worth checking out as it uses the same stereoscopic 3D technology that is found in the movie.

The full list of this week's game releases are below.  The links take you to Metacritic.com, a review aggregator site.

PC

Microsoft Xbox 360

Nintendo Wii

Sony Playstation 3

Nintendo DS

Sony PSP

    Sorry, you've made a mistake. You incorrectly wrote: "If you've got your PC or console hooked up via HDMI and your HDTV supports 120hz, this game might be worth checking out as it uses the same stereoscopic 3D technology that is found in the movie." Unfortunately NOT just any 120Hz TV will do 3D. It needs to be a 3D-Ready TV. See my list of 3D HDTVs at: 3dmovielist dot com
