This week's 'Release This!', a column exploring the games hitting retail shelves worldwide across all platforms, takes a look at games released between February 26 and March 4, 2006.
It's a big week for Electronic Arts, with three major titles for the Western market: first-person shooter
Black and soccer sim
FIFA Street 2 on consoles, and RTS
The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II on the PC.
And in Japan, nostalgia is king, with enhanced remakes of both the original
Rockman (

Valkyrie Profile, both for the PSP, along with
Capcom Classics Collection for the PS2, and a new
Seiken Densetsu for the Nintendo DS.
This list is compiled exclusively for Gamasutra, from a number of online retail outlets and industry resources.
