New PAL Releases Roundup

Rooms! SBK X! Er...

That's that then. Bye bye games industry, see you after the World Cup.

Well, that's not entirely fair - there's the DS-based sliding-tiles puzzle antics of Rooms: The Main Building to consider, as we did yesterday, going for 4/10. "Ruinous presentation, lacklustre graphical assets and fractured storyline." Whoops.

SBK X is also out today, although our review won't be ready for a bit because the code turned up so late. We've captured the first 15 minutes for you to check out in the meantime though.

Online, Alien Breed: Impact arrives on Steam, with a PS3 version to follow. Impact's an enhanced version of the solid XBLA-exclusive Alien Breed: Evolution - enhanced by fan feedback, in fact, which sounds admirable.

Next week is Super Mario Galaxy 2 of course. Hubba. You'll also be able to sample the delights of British indie darling Joe Danger, which is due out for PS3 owners via PSN on 9th June. Check out our recent hands-on and look out for a review early next week. Daaaaanger!
