The lead up to E3 always leaves us pretty short on new and exciting games since all the hype and overblown expectations tend to drown out any game that actually exists on shelves. That being the case, our Game of the Week is the best game of all. Hype. With Microsoft broadcasting an MTV preview of the Xbox 360 this Thursday you have to wonder if Sony will try to steal some of that thunder with an announcement of their own. Either way, we're only nine days away from the big show and the hype is going to be crazy. I made a button!
On DVD this week we have Alone in the Dark, Assault on Precinct 13, The Merchant of Venice and more!

Yeah, but it's an innovative, forward-thinking, ground-breaking, genre-defining, paradigm-shifting.... sequel.

I hope Supreme Ruler 2010 doesn't suck as bad as Super Power 2 did.
If there were any justice in the world, 'emoticons' would be a failed eighties Transformers spin off movie, in which all the bots transform into a symbol of an emotion, and which preaches gay rights.
Dudes are weird.
Watch me learn to draw.
On the eve of my first trip to e3, that button has special significance. I am so irrationally excited I am infused with pure hype. It courses through my veins. Indeed, I am hype itself. I am one with the button.
Where's the demo*?! No purchase without a demo*!
*Valid alternatives include: multiplayer, multiplayer co-op, no monthly fees, patch, not being from EA
Swing harder! Swing harder!

Hype... that was priceless!
Finally a week where I can just save my money.

Please assure us it's the OFF button and not the TURBO button. Old school!

I can't seem to press the button. It's broke just like the site.
