Heroes, Ghosts, And Penguins--Weekly Roundup 1/10

by Jeff Cork on Jan 10, 2011 at 03:03 AM

We've got a pretty strange assortment of releases this week, spanning everything from the launch of DC Universe Online to Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. I'm not sure where exactly Prinny 2: Dawn of Operation Panties, Dood! fits into that false range, but I'll put it a little closer to the Kingdom Hearts side of the spectrum to be safe. On the downloadable front, Capcom's releasing a pair of arcade titles on the Virtual Console, and Linkin Park is hitting Rock Band. And as usual, comics.
