New Releases for the Week of Aliens and Psychokinetic Little Girls

Out on WiiWare this week is the interesting Survival Horror Puzzle game, LIT. In this WiiMote-centric game, the player takes on the role of high school student Jake as he searches the halls of his haunted school for his lost girlfriend. Be prepared for lots of motions controls in this one.

A cross-platform release, Ben 10: Alien Force, is a third person adventure game based on the popular cartoon from Cartoon Network. The game boasts numerous playable characters including five of Ben’s alternate forms. Players on the DS will get access to an additional three forms.

Another cross-platform release this week is the newest entry to the popular Destroy All Humans franchise, Destroy All Humans: Path of the Furon. The gameplay will be familiar to players of the previous entries, with changes to the weapons and enemies being explained by the introduction of Furon technology to the plot.

The Icrontic Spotlight this week falls on F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin. This much anticipated sequel continues the story of Alma, whose paranormal rage threatens to destroy our reality. This time the game is set in the ruins created by the first game. The protagonist this time is a Delta Force operator sent to arrest the villain from F.E.A.R. Developer Monolith claims that the AI (one of the most lauded features of the first game) has been improved further, allowing the enemies to fight more realistically, and use better strategy. The plot looks to be even deeper than the first, as well, with the full repercussions of Project Origin finally beginning to come to light.
