Shippin’ Out: Week of Nov. 16, 2009
Buried in a sea of offal (the usual rush of products prior to the holiday shopping season stampede), are a number of promising games including multiple versions of Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed 2, the new Tony Hawk game, Left 4 Dead 2, Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles, NCAA Basketball 2010, LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues, LittleBigPlanet’s PSP debut, and so much more. You can check out the rather massive list after the break - which doesn’t even include the new stuff making its way to digital distribution platforms like Steam, GamerGate, Impulse and more.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii was released on Sunday, Nov. 15, so if you haven’t gotten your copy yet, you should be able to find it at most major outlets.

The adventure continues: LEGO Indiana Jones 2
LucasArts and Traveler’s Tales are teaming up once again to bring another LEGO Indiana Jones game to fans this fall. LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues combines the fun of LEGO bricks with the clever humor, and over abundance of cuteness, and a unique take on all the Indiana Jones films – including for the first time, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. LEGO Indiana Jones 2 follows Dr. Jones’ escapades from the jungles of South America to the Peruvian Ruins and beyond - and lets them build their own levels brick by brick if they so choose.
This will be the first LEGO game that features the Build Your Own Adventure Mode, which allows you to create your own levels and environments and share them with your friends - you can even create your own levels and combine them with the existing ones in the game. Other features include new characters like Mutt Williams on his motorcycle, all new animations, the ability to jump in and drive a number of new vehicles, two-player drop-in drop-out coop, an improved whip that does more, story mode and free play mode, and lots of other new improvements.
Look for the game this fall on Xbox 360, PS3, DS, PSP, Windows and Wii.
