Swinging In The New Year—Weekly Roundup 1/4

Is it 2010 already? Ouch. Speaking of amazing segueways, this week sees the release of two big games with a couple of things in common: swords and guns. THQ's Darksiders and Sega's Bayonetta both drop this week, giving players plenty of opportunities to slash and shoot stuff while solving puzzles or looking sexy. If you're one of those New Year's Resolution types, maybe My Fitness Coach 2 Workout and Nutrition could inspire you to shed those pounds. Or not. What am I, some kind of fortune teller?
