New games this week: Rise of the Argonauts edition

The only reason we have hesitation about this week's biggest release, Rise of the Argonauts, is its relatively deep placement in the holiday season. But that's not right, is it? After all, we've been asking publishers to spread the games out, why should we discount one because it's late to the party?

Let's all keep our fingers crossed and hope that RotA's release date was a crafty strategy (or a fluke) more than an intentional burial. See all the new releases after the break.
