Spring and love and all that garbage are in the air, and with that kicks off a solid batch of games this week. The obvious blockbuster is Street Fighter IV, the fighting game for pretty much everyone, really, then the fabulous RTS Dawn of War II (the RTS even for people who don't play RTS), and two titles from equally reputable RPG series': Dragon Quest V and Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon.

"As a huge fan of the RTS genre I try to play every major RTS that my grubby hands can get on. One game that has continued to elude my grasp is DoW. The reason simply is because of the ridiculous initial investment required to play the "full game." Call it whatever you want: episodic content, expansion packs, semi-sequels... this tactic of selling bite sized morsels of gameplay is milking at its finest. And why not milk? You combine a vast gameworld with a rabid fanbase and get gallons of ..."
