Alright, so we know what you’re thinking: Another cookie-cutter Iraq war movie. Explosions, guns, tension, half-baked and loosely interwoven love story, helicopters crashing, Matt Damon.

We have finally had some respite after the holiday game release rush of 2008. There were just so many games to check out in such a little timeframe. It was quite an unfortunate situation for many publishers. There is only a finite amount of consumer attention to go around after all. We still don’t know too much about games slated for 2009 though there are a few slated for first quarter release that we had been looking forward to. Halo Wars is high up on that list and we’re quite pleased that the publishers decided to delay the release until after that rush so we could take the time to give it the attention it deserves.
