At least one of these is still available for purchase right now.

Videogame Releases: Week of April 22nd, 2012

Videogame Releases: Week of April 22nd, 2012

I thought that perhaps April might be easy on gamers’ wallets, and so far I’ve been right. Of the titles worth mentioning this week, two are sequels to videogames I haven’t played. Or, two open world games that aren’t quite compelling enough to open my wallet. I tried the demo of one, but the other is a PC game of which I am hard pressed to explore, what with the plethora of Xbox and PS3 titles coming out.

Mid-Week Poll: The Great ‘Ghost Protocol’ Aspect Ratio Debate

Some of our readers may have noticed that yesterday’s Blu-ray post created quite a little kerfuffle in the Comments section about director Brad Bird’s decision to present ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol‘ on Blu-ray in a constant 2.35:1 aspect ratio, without the shifting ratios that were seen in IMAX theatrical screenings. Where do you fall on this controversy? Are you fine with the decision, or is this a deal-breaker for you? Do you care at all? Vote in our poll after the page break.
