You've Never Heard of Half of These Characters Edition

I'll jump the queue and do this week, seeing as though I've actually played a bit.
Let's start off with Dark Void which is a bit of a surprise in a few ways. Firstly the gameplay isn't what I was expecting. Rather than the jetpack dogfighting the game was noted for, you actually spend most of your time on foot, or perched on ledges blasting away. The second surprise is that, despite what people will have you believe, it's actually pretty decent. Annoying at points, frustrating at others, but when it's not getting in its own way it's actually pretty good fun.
I've also played Tatsunoko vs Capcom on the Wii, which I've mixed feelings about. There's a good mix of styles in the limited roster of characters, but I'm not sure how many of them I enjoy playing with. And while I'd stop short of saying the game lacked depth, its more simplified approach makes it harder to delve into that depth. In my opinion at least.
All topped off with a dash of Fifa 10.
As an aside, Loading Screen returns this weekend with the animated movie take on Dante's Inferno, so make sure to keep an eye out for that
