Avatar The Last Airbender:The Burning Earth- The popular Nickelodeon show Avatar is getting another video game, this time titled “The Burning Earth”. It will follow the show’s storyline of the three main heroes who are trying to save their world from the firebenders. The game looks like it will be throwing several different enemies at you, and if Jang is to fall in battle, you will immediately switch to Kataria for a second player, although it isn’t known if their are reviving powers to bring old Jenga back to life. Theg mae shows off a very cool cel-shaded art style (think Sly Cooper), and it looks to be a real fan (Black Knight) pleaser, so make sure to check this one out on the 360, Wii, DS, and GBA when it comes out October 16, 2007. Oh yea, it’s also coming to the PS2. 

Super Smash Bros. Brawl- One of the major reasons I picked the Wii was the games, and this one was one of of those games. After waiting for 6 years, December 3rd, 2007 just seems too long to wait for this sure-to-be-great title. This time most of the boys are back in town, although some of the new characters from Melee aren’t confirmed, while most of the original characters are, but have no fear, Underdog is here!…….oh wait……..There are new characters, inc. Pit, Metaknight, Zero Suit Samus, Wario, and Solid Snake, the first ever non-Nintendo character in the series. I wouldn’t be surprised, however, if they threw in a secret character like Sonic in the works with the new olympic game coming out soon. There will be all kinds of new environments and items, but there will also be Super Smash Attacks, which could be anything from being used in an item or in a Mortal Kombat style finishing move, but all I know is, it looks awesome. If you haven’t tryed out this series, I strongly recommend the first two, with the second on the gamecube. I’ll make sure I see this one on December 3rd.

The Heroes Videogame- I honestly don’t know much about this game, but it has just been announced by Ubisoft, the makers of Assassin’s Creed and Splinter Cell, so they should be able to make a game that justly matches the show. That’s pretty much all I know, but stay tuned to find out more before it comes out on the PS3 and 360, so Black Knight you better believe I’m going to play this and Ratchet and Clank on your PS3, hey, I’ll buy it for you! In exchange, you can come and play Brawl or whatever as long as I can try this game out.
