Retail Roundup: July 16, 2008

I

t may not be Madden, but it’s still football. NCAA Football 09 releases this week for all major consoles. The usual assortment of feature upgrades and evolutionary improvements are on hand – if you’re in need of some pre-season gridiron action this July, look no further.

Capcom gives golf fans something new to shake their Wiimotes at. While We Love Golf! lacks true motion controls like we saw in Wii Sports, it is being developed by the same house which brought us Mario Golf. Despite its arcade bent, this might prove to be one of the best golf options to yet grace Nintendo’s console.

It’s a brick with wings! It’s a disoriented bird! No, it’s Space Chimps. THQ is publishing this movie tie-in for a variety of platforms. While my enthusiasm for the primate-filled action/platformer is obviously lacking, some younger gamers may appreciate the title’s sense of humor.
