This article is over 8 years old and may contain outdated information

I won’t lie to you: after having some server-related issues with the website today that had us restoring backups almost the entire day, I was hoping for a stellar week in terms of new game releases. Unfortunately, this has not been an amazing week in terms of new game releases, but we still have a few that stand out, the highlight of the week being Jade Empire. There are three more games that we’ve considered good enough to recommend this week, but it’s been very dry otherwise.
