The last week of February was a bit of a disappointment in comparison to the three weeks prior. That doesn’t mean there weren’t plenty of eye catching and interest-snatching news items that popped up throughout the week. In fact, there’s a plethora of reviews that were added to our database, including Afro Samurai and GTA IV: Lost and Damned DLC. Some rumors for a new Halo game has surfaced and an official trailer for Lost Planet 2 made its way onto the press circuit.
