Just got the new Game Informer with the Batman Arkham City cover on it. It came early this month.

Here are the review scores for all five summer of arcade games from GI:

  • Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light - 9 (Game of the Month)
  • Castlevania Harmony of Despair - 8.5
  • Hydro Thunder Hurricane - 8
  • Monday Night Combat - 7.75
  • Limbo - 9

I'm surprised at the Lara Croft score. I'm excited about it now even more than before. :)

Wow. I didn't expect Lara Croft to be that good. I'm kinda excited for next week.

I wasn't too interested in Lara Croft, but if it got a 9 I'll have to look more into it.

I'm surprised Monday Night Combat got a 7.75, it looked pretty interesting. Guess I'll have to check out the demo first.

Also, what is the deal with Hydro Thunder? From what I've seen it doesn't look too special, but it's been getting fairly good scores.

I was excited for Monday Night Combat. :( Oh well, I'll still try the demo.
