After a huge and eventful weekend I have returned home to find some excellent trailers for this week. However it is more about quality than quantity as there isn't too many trailers, but the ones we did get are going to excite you. So many good games just around the corner and this will only make you want that corner to come sooner.
This week we go back on tour to see who is headlining. We head to the courts for some action and check out what is happening in the empire. We see what is really grinding Marcus's gears. We have a sack with a documentary and a new video about some sluggish metal.

Today seems to be a day of soundtrack related news, with 2K Games today announcing the soundtrack for the upcoming NBA 2K9. With the release of the game imminent, we've got a list of all the tracks featured in the game, which is headlined by the likes of The Cool Kids, Beastie Boys, N.E.R.D and The Pharcyde.
NBA 2K9 is the "this season's highly anticipated basketball title" from 2K Games. The soundtrack features an "eclectic mix of artists", with an exclusive track from DJ UNK and an original recording from The Cool Kids, entitled "2K Pennies". NBA 2K9 will also continue the tradition established by 2K Sports, incorporating some artists as in-game characters.

2008 has been a little different from the standard industry year, in that we’ve seen a lot of major titles released outside of the holiday shopping season. Mario Kart Wii, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Grand Theft Auto IV and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots were all released in the first half of the year. One would think that that might make for a less than stellar holiday line up, but the game publishers of the world (bar Nintendo) are inclined to prove otherwise.
Over the next two weeks (due to the sheer number of releases), The Warp Pipe will be boldly predicting the quality of new games in the next quarter.

It's been a pretty dull couple of weeks at The Warp Pipe, with too much time spent chasing Xbox 360 Achievements (through Thrillville: Off the Rails, Spider-Man 3 and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion) and waiting around for Soulcalibur IV and Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 to be released. Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network look to be heating up over the next couple of weeks – they still don't hold a candle to similar services on the PC, but if this is a sign of things to come, then I am all for it.
This week, I thought we'd pay a visit to the trivia vault to learn another bunch of fun video game facts.

In a somewhat baffling turn of events, I've found myself glued to MLB 08: The Show on the PSP in recent weeks. Normally baseball is an exercise in boredom and mediocrity, but Sony's recent MLB games have some interesting new ideas, mainly the Road to the Show mode, where you control a single player and skip everything where your guy is not involved. You take the player from his rookie Spring Training with a Major League club of your choice, through the world of Minor League Baseball and (when you're good enough) into the Majors, living the dream of suburban kids all across America.
My self-diagnosed addiction to The Show led me to thinking about the level of progression (or lack thereof) of sports games in recent times, which is our main topic for the week. We'll also take a look at LucasArts' superbly budget-priced Sam & Max Hit the Road and revisit Nintendo's oft-overlooked Game Boy masterpiece Donkey Kong.
