After a very successful Comic-Con experience, GameZone has returned to its usual format for this edition of our weekly wrap-up. Don’t worry, though, because we’ve still got some delicious Comic-Con leftovers for ya! Check out the latest gaming and movie content right here.
Reviews
Ice Age: Continental Drift review (Movies)
The latest entry in the Ice Age series lacks clever writing and feels so uninspired that it’s hardly worth watching even if you’re a fan of the previous films.
Rhythm Thief & the Emperor's Treasure review (3DS)
If you’re looking for a magnificent rhythm gaming experience on your 3DS, don’t miss out on this one. Theatrhythm, ya got some competition!
This combination of sights and sounds delivers one hell of an experience. Throw in some wonderfully clever gameplay, and you’ve got an offbeat game like no other.
Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition review (XBLA, PSN, WiiWare)
Frogger returns, and it combines everything people loved about previous games while adding some impressive new gameplay elements.
London 2012: The Olympic Games review (Xbox 360, PS3)
It may not be very memorable, but this Olympics-themed sports game still provides some fun moments.
Looking for one hell of an addictive tower defense game to play on your iPhone? Look no further, because that game has arrived.
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD review (XBLA, PSN)
It may be missing the awesome split-screen multiplayer mode that made the original so much, but this HD remake of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater is still a ton of fun.
Resident Evil: Chronicles HD Collection review (PSN)
Want some on-rails zombie action that will put those Move controllers to good use? Here ya go!
While it doesn’t reach the ambitious level of psychological horror design that it could have, Anna is still a worthwhile experience that will give you plenty of scares.
The Dark Knight Rises review (Movies)
The finale of the Dark Knight trilogy is everything you could want in a film intended to end a masterful legend.
