A variety of high quality titles arrive at retail this week, catering for all types of gamers with a mix of new IP and veteran games franchises making their triumphant return.

Nintendo fans rejoice as Punch-Out!! makes its first console appearance since the SNES, with the Wii’s motion controls making this the most immersive entry in the series so far. Bionic Commando also returns, with Capcom’s reimagining of the franchise releasing on Xbox 360 and PS3.

Meanwhile, EA seeks to progress the growing fitness gaming space with EA Sports Active, an innovative new exercise game developed for the Wii. Codemasters also release new IP in the form of Damnation, a frantic third-person shooter set to shake up its genre with a more acrobatic take on combat.
