March 2011: Top 5 Most Anticipated Releases

Heck, I didn't think things could get much more uneventful than February, but apparently I was wrong: March is pretty deserted in terms of big name releases. There are however, some breaking the ice that might interest their target audiences, so let's have a look at those:


5. RANGO- Johnny Depp stars in a new animation about a lizard trying to find his way in the Wild West and battling a giant snake. Sounds about as fun as being hit round the head with a hammer, yet reviewers are already saying this might actually be big, so keep a watch on it.
4. HOMEFRONT- Another 2011 shooter, this time revolving around an invaded America. Nothing different to usual? We'll see, since Kaos Studios are promising an FPS totally unique compared to Call of Duty!

3. BATTLE: LOS ANGELES- I know, yet another war film, but with Aaron Eckhart (Two-Face in The Dark Knight) in the lead role we can expect some quality acting, and the CG effects of Los Angeles being taken over by an alien force look incredible.

2. NINTENDO 3DS- A few months back, this would have topped the list, but the £230 price tag placed on the console is making for a hard decision in these economic times for gamers. I'll try to go hands-on with a 3DS at some point, and bring you a full review when it comes down in price.

1. ALEX RIDER: SCORPIA RISING- It's the last Alex Rider book- what isn't exciting about that? One character who has appeared in all eight books will die, Smithers will make his last gadget, and by the final chapter we will apparently be in no doubt as to why this is the finale. Let's hope Horowitz ends things with a bang!
