Movies:
Splice (Wednesday, February 24) - I can't find a trailer for this movie, so this clip will have to do. It looks kind of neat, but I've found these kinds of movies boring in the past.
Cop Out (Friday, February 26) - A buddy cop movie starring Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan. Meh, looks OK.
Defender (Friday, February 26) - Looks like it's supposed to be a Superhero comedy...looks pretty lame too.
Crazies (Friday, February 26) - The trailer reminds me of 28 Days Later. Something's making people go crazy, and they start killing people. It's a horror movie, and it doesn't look all that bad.
Games:
Heavy Rain (PS3) - This is more like an interactive movie than a game. Either way this game looks awesome, and the demo over the Sony Network was good. Definitely getting this one, but probably waiting for a price drop.
Endless Ocean: Blue World (Wii) - Gamespot gave this an 8 out of 10, so it can't be all that bad. Looks like an exploration game above anything else.
The rest (There's so many games this week that I'm only commenting on the last two):
Last Rebellion (PS3)
Napoleon: Total War (PC)
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2010 Reverse of Arcadia (DS)...why?
Greed Cop (Xbox 360, PS3)
Risen (Xbox 360)
Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943 (PC)
Sonic & Sega All Star Racers (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS) - The Xbox 360 version also has Banjo-Kazooie in it.
Age of Zombies (PSP)
Dawn of Discovery: Venice (PC)
Order of War: Challenge (PC)
Arsenal of Democracy (PC)
Metal Slug XX (PSP)
Seems like it's just that point in a console generation where they start getting flooded by games that nobody will buy, except there's too many good games coming out lately too. Also, I noticed that five of these games are for the PC; at least developers haven't abandoned the PC yet.

Movie & Game releases this week
Movies:
Dante's Inferno (Monday, February 15) - An animated movie based on the videogame that released last week.
Happy Tears (Friday, February 19) - A drama film. Not sure how else to comment on this one, other than it has the coach from Dodgeball from it. Just watch the trailer.
Shutter Island - A thriller from director Martin Scorsese with Leonardo DiCaprio in it (They've worked together in "hHe Departed". "Shutter Island" looks pretty cool.
That's it for this week.
Games:
Alien Vs. Predator 3 (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) - This is the big one this week. Sounds like what it is, you can choose from the Aliens, the Predators, and the Marines in a deathmatch. A demo is available for all three versions; the PC demo is available through Steam, and the console demos are available through their respective online networks. If you enjoy multiplayer games, I strongly suggest you try the demo. The game also has individual campaigns for each race of fighters.
EverQuest II: Sentinel's Fate (PC) - An expansion for one of the bigger MMOs currently out there. It's adding over 2000 weapons, twelve new dungeons, two large new overworld zones, and more.
Apart from that, there's really nothing worth talking about, so I'll just list off the rest.

Movie & Game releases this week
Movies:
Valentines Day (Wednesday, Feb 10) - A Valentines Day movie starring...lots of people. Trailer here.
The Wolfman (Wednesday, Feb 10) - An anti-Valentines Day movie with a werewolf in it. Trailer here.
Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief (Friday, Feb 12) - A movie that mixes Greek mythology with modern times. Trailer here.
The Yellow Handkerchief (Friday, Feb 12) - An independent drama film about an ex-convict who spent six years in prison for manslaughter. Trailer here.
Love (Sunday, Feb 14) - A movie about an astronaut in the international space station who loses contact with earth and becomes stranded in space, alone. Trailer here.
Games:
Bioshock 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) - Many people are really hyped for the second installment in the popular Bioshock series. This game adds multiplayer to the mix, and you can play as a Big Daddy. Personally, I didn't really like Bioshock, so I'm not really looking forward to this.
Dante's Inferno (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) - A God Of War-ish game about the poem by the same name. I've played the demo, and I thought it was awesome. I'll probably wait for the price to go down, but I'll be sure to get this at some point.
Data East Arcade Classics (Wii) - A rather impressive collection of classic games that's only $20...most likely worth it.
Scene It? Twighlight (DS) - Why?
Super Monkey Ball: Step and Roll (Wii) - A Super Monkey Ball that uses the Wii Fit balance board. For those of you who don't know what Super Monkey Ball is, just watch this.
And that's about all that caught my attention.

Movie & Game releases this week
Movies:
Dear John - A War/Romance drama where two people fall in love, then the guy is sent out to war - trailer here
Frozen - A horror movie where three kids get left behind on a ski lift -trailer here
Universal Soldier 3 - A direct to DVD sequel starring Jean-Claude Van Damme - trailer here
Games:
Family Party: 30 Great Games Winter Fun (Wii) - Games like this are still flooding the Wii; this is beyond ridiculous. Besides, Olympic videogames are always the same...and sucky.
Making History II: The War of the World (PC) - A World War 2 turn-based strategy game. I've never been into turn-based games, but this one actually looks kind of deep.
Lunar: Harmony of Silver Star (PSP) - A re-release to what many consider as one of the best RPG games ever made. Many elements have been enhenced, and the visuals have been re-worked for the PSP's wide screen.
White Knight Chronicles (PS3) - An RPG that released last fall in Japan. Reception has been mixed, but most of the complaints are related to the multi-player mode.
Star Trek online (PC) - Exactly what it sounds like, a Star Trek MMO. The public beta started in January, but I can't find any opinions about it.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat (PC) - A sequel to S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. Looks good, nuff said.
Chime (Xbox live arcade) - Know nothing about it, but I'll probably download the demo like I do most arcade titles.

Movie & Game releases this week
Movies:
Edge of Darkness trailer - From the director of Casino Royale comes Mel Gibson's return to what he's best at; action movies. This I want to see.
When in Rome trailer - It's a comedy, and I can't say I have any interest in it.
Games:
Shadow of Destiny (PSP) - this is a remake of a PS2/PC adventure game originally released in 2002. Called Shadow of Memories outside of North America. That's all I know about it.
Blood Bowl (Xbox 360) - A fantasy football game that's already out in Europe. I'm not into sports games, so I'm probably not going to get it.
Horrible Histories: Ruthless Romans (Nintendo DS)
Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars (Wii) - Seeing how I very much enjoyed Marvel vs. Capcom games, I have no doubt I'd enjoy this one too. Unfortunately, I don't have a Wii yet.
No More Heroes 2 (Wii) - I've played the first one and enjoyed it. Here's another game coming out this week that makes me wish I had a Wii.
MAG (PS3) - This shooting game looks frickin' awesome. 256 player matches. This is one I'll definately have to get at some point.
Mass Effect 2 (Xbox 360, PC) - This combination of RPG and third person shooter is another one I'd like to get at some point. This also makes me want to finish the first game as I haven't yet.
And those are all the notable titles I can think of.
