Gyromancer is the weird, hybrid Chimera Love Child resulting from the "who saw this one coming?" collaboration between Square-Enix and Popcap, both leaders in their fields. The question is: Can two rights make a wrong?

"Square Enix Ltd. has announced Gyromancer is available from today for Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360 and for PC download via Steam, priced 1200 Microsoft Points and £10.99/€13.99 respectively. Gyromancer is a new Puzzle Role-Playing Game (RPG) developed in collaboration between Square Enix and PopCap. With a blend of puzzle elements from the PopCap Games puzzle hit Bejeweled Twist and the RPG mastery of Square Enix, Gyromancer is an all-new experience that redefines the Puzzle RPG genre."

Icrontic's tireless CB Droege takes on this week's new releases, and features Gyromancer, Assassin's Creed 2, New Super Mario Bros Wii, Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles, and Left 4 Dead 2.
