Like parents grounding a disobedient child, game publishers have told their new releases that they’re not allowed to leave the house while this E3 thing is going on. But a resourceful teenager will always find a way to escape into the great wide world. And this metaphor kind of falls apart when you realize I’m talking about a budget FPS set during World War II (yes, they still make those) and a movie tie-in game.
Developed by CI Games and co-published by Bandai Namco, Enemy Front is a first person shooter set during World War II that will available this week for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360. Although it is interesting that the main character (and thus, the main Nazi killer) is a reporter. B.J. Blazkowicz he ain’t.
This week’s other new release is How to Train Your Dragon 2, a game tie-in based on the DreamWorks film of the same name. It’ll be released for the 3DS, PS3, Wii (really), Wii U, and Xbox 360.
