News: If April showers bring May flowers then March releases bring happy gamers.
The first month of 2010 is in the books and the game industry has already seen a dozen huge releases so far. That is likely some kind of record for the end of January. And the release calendar shows no signs of slowing down.
So when planning your game budget for the year, this list of upcoming releases for all of the major platforms is a good way to get a handle on what's coming out soon. It's not a complete list, but I'll keep it updated it as often as I can. More release dates can be found on the New & Future Video Game Releases page at Amazon.
With new release dates for God of War III, Yakuza 3, Red Steel 2 and the Dragon Age expansion, March has become a packed month. With the calendar page already sporting dates for Final Fantasy XIII and Battlefield: Bad Company 2, the month of March plans to march right over your wallet. To take a stand against this assault, be sure to check out an expanded list of many of this year's releases right here.
