Gamasutra's round-up of worldwide video game releases, "Release This!", sums up the worldwide game titles debuting the week ending July 1st, 2006, from
Chrome Hounds for Xbox 360 in Japan to the crashtastic console title
FlatOut 2 in Europe and Iron Lore's
Titan Quest in the United States.
Regular 'Release This!' columnist Danny Cowan explains of the U.S. debuts for this week:
"The U.S. sees a few intriguing releases this week, ranging from THQ and Iron Lore's notable PC hack and slash title Titan Quest, the inevitable licensed version of Pirates Of The Caribbean from Bethesda, the Xbox 360 Over-G Fighters, a third-person shooter starring a space cop dog who doesn't play by the rules (Ruff Trigger), all the way to a role-playing game featuring truck driving...in the future! (Hard Truck Apocalypse).
There's a flood of racing titles arriving this week as well, including the newly-resurrected Micro Machines V4, the ported Juiced: Eliminator, MTX: Motortrax, and Crusty Demons, which despite its unusual title, is a freestyle motocross game in which real-life motocross stars sell their soul to Satan. No, really. For animal lovers, Kitty LUV offers budget-priced cat care gameplay while the PC port of Jaws: Unleashed allows misanthropists the chance to exact their vengeance on humanity, shark-style."
