So, you picked up your shiny, new PS4 last week, tried to download the update on a crowded network, only to find that your machine is broken and Sony won’t take your money. But since we’re all made of money and had the foresight to not cancel our Xbox One pre-orders on a whim, we have an unprecedented week of new releases and XBONE launch titles to look forward to this week. I hope you haven’t maxed out your credit cards already...you’re going to need them.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlu4MCPVPbA
This Cartoon Network licensed top-down hack and slash adventure places the player in the roles of the series characters: Finn, Jake, Marceline, Ice King,Cinnamon Bun, Flame Princess, Lemongrab and, eventually, Peppermint Butler. Not much here for adults but your kids are probably already shitting themselves in anticipation. Releases on November 19 for WiiU, PS3, XBox 360, and 3DS.
AquaPazza: Aquaplus Dream Match
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnJkY8XyX_E
This Japanese fighting game was released over a year ago in Japan and has finally made its way West. Whoopty-fucking-do. The trailer gave me a headache. This one hits shelves for the PS3 only, on November 19. You have been warned.
Need For Speed: Rivals
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zph2UL09tLM
EA, Ghost Games, and Criterion are bringing the NFS Most Wanted retread to consoles. Why is there a fucking Ferrari in this game but no Porsches in Forza 5? Fuck EA and their Porsche license. You can buy NFS: Rivals starting November 19 for the PS3, XBox 360, and PC...but why would you?
Watch Dogs
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U8KsQPIrY0
This highly anticipated high-tech adventure game was supposed to release this week, but it been delayed until spring. Enjoy the trailer.
Young Justice: Legacy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXmjSGPd650
The second Cartoon Network game this week is an action-adventure RPG based on young DC heroes like Robin, Superboy, and Wonder Girl. Full grown, but non-playable, DC heroes will make guest appearances. This one is a bit more cartoony than Warner Bros last two DC games, so it may be more engaging for younger players. Young Justice saves the day starting November 19, on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, WiiU, and 3DS.
