Now this is more like it. This is the sort of thing we need every week: big titles and lots of choice in all regions. Well, there isn't much choice for North America though; however, the two games heading our way are both heavyweight titles -- we suppose that more than makes up for it. Besides, who's complaining? Not us, especially after last week's dry spell.
