We’ve got a much better line-up of video game releases this week of April 25, 2010 till the first day of May. Thank goodness the drough of last week’s picks did not carry over to this week. Sam Fisher will finally be let out of the cage via Splinter Cell: Conviction, and we’ve got little PixelJunk Monsters to build some tower defense fun on your PSP. If it’s sports you like, then sports you’ll get, thanks to the 2010 FIFA World Cup, all the way from South Africa.
