In this week's Game Plan, we have what could arguably be the best game of the year, as well as me with a cold. I say some goofy things, 'cause of the medicine. Don't mind me. "National Treasure" really is awesome, though.

UPDATE: Despite the woman at GameStop assuring me that "A Boy And His Blob" was coming out today, it got moved to next week. Boo.

Dear god, let us get past this week. The games aren't all bad, despite Tim's overwhelming negativity, but I wouldn't say that we're flush with options. Next week there's a whole swath of awesomeness coming your way, but in the meantime we have a couple decent alternatives.

In an extra special, sassy episode of Game Plan, I give a spot-on impersonation of Mickey Mouse and Tim actually agrees with me for once. Also I, occasionally, have the voice of the devil.

Sidenote: Tim really liked the fact that you can use the alt fire on "Dead Space Extraction" by turning the remote sideways. It got cut in the final edit, but he wanted you all to know that. There, my conscience is clear.

In this week's episode of "Game Plan" we've switched up the location and tried a bit of a more laid-back vibe. I think the change was for the better, especially since Tim seems way more comfortable about making fun of me.

Agree with the picks? Any suggestions of your own? Let us know in the comments!

Despite the fact that there are actually a few solid games coming out this week ("Final Fantasy: Dissidia" and "Professor Layton" spring to mind) we decided to focus this week's episode on the game that'll be spinning in most 360s and PS3s starting today: "Batman: Arkham Asylum."

If you read my review of the game, the video may be a little redundant. If you're too lazy to read (even though you're reading this right now), this week's "Game Plan" is kinda a wrap-up of the high points of "Batman," specifically why it's my favorite game of the year so far.

Tim is on vacation (the bastard), but that doesn't mean you won't get three games worth checking out this week. You can probably guess my number one pick, but hey, it's too damn good not to give it the nod! Watch "Game Plan" episode 4 above, and we'll be back to our normal format next week.

In this week's "Game Plan," I make a rather edgy choice for what should get number one and pretty much everyone will probably think I'm stupid because of it. But too bad, it's my show, I'll do what I want.

Here it is, the much-anticipated second episode of "Game Plan," the weekly video game release round-up fun time hour. Or 3 minutes. But whatever.

In this week, Tim just about has a psychotic break over my number 1 pick. Take that, Tim!

Check out the video after the break...

Kicking off a new weekly segment today. Titled "Game Plan," it's basically me and MTV News front man Tim Kash will be discussing the top 3 games coming out this week (at least, according to my limited and oftentimes faulty taste in games). We're a little delayed this week, but the hope is to get one up every Tuesday, just in time for all the new game releases.
