So what's going to be in our videogaming menu starting this week? A whole lot of DS games once again, we tell you, though there's a few gems or two in the Nintendo handheld rough on Tuesday. There's a music rhythm game for almost every console out there, plus a couple new additions to the portfolio of PC games. Somehow we're also seeing another relaunching of Gears of War for the Xbox 360 the "Refresh" edition. We don't know why it's re-listed, but it is. The full list follows at the full story.

It's another Thursday, and that means European gamers have something new to celebrate about as Sony delivers yet another set of updates to its PlayStation Store. This week sees another set of shoot 'em up titles with Activision's Enemy Territory Quake Wars walking hand-in-hand with Southpeak Interactive's Monster Madness: Grave Danger. Check out the complete list in our full article.

Okay, so Sony Computer Entertainment may have already delivered B-Boy to PlayStation Portables, but that was two years ago, and the initial release was targeted at PAL PSPs only. So when news from the New York Comic Con takes to the news waves and says that the rhythm-based break-dancing game will be coming to the U.S., it catches our attention. More at the full story.

Looks like The Con's gotten a confirmation. In addition to a confirmation, this contest of fighting prowess and conflagration of butt-whooping skills is sure to delight fans, as SouthPeak Interactive mentions the game as having a March 30 release date in the UK.

The game's story chronicles your own rise to infamy in the mean streets, as both a brawler in illegal street fights, and a hustler on and off the squared circle. You can choose to throw fights stylishly, or have them thrown for you, just to get money for your own purposes. All those dastardly deeds are completely legit, because conning people out of their cash is the name of the game, and you want to be the master of it.

As part of the release date for the Euro version of The Con, the load times have also been shortened. Furthermore, difficulty levels have also been altered somewhat, increasing both your stakes and the potential payoff for your actions. Now, just wait ten days, and you'll get what's yours. Don't worry, that isn't a con.

Having a grand time with new The Con screenshots, eh? Well, seeing people beat the hell out of each other sure can be fun for some, but publisher SouthPeak Games reiterates that there is more to this game than good ol' street fights.

Obviously, The Con is all about taking home all the Benjamins and not exactly about honor or values. So in fights, as much as it is important to win, players must also think about incurring tactical losses.

This skewing of priorities is supported by a betting system that allows players to gamble on either side of each fight. Players may fake punches, lower guards deliberately, and even initiate dives on the floor to lose.

However, these acts should be done in a convincing fashion. If the crowd don't take the bait, you will definitely lose all your winnings. Take note that battles are not always a one-on-one affair as a maximum of three fighters on each side may be involved.

As if the complex fighting and betting systems aren't enough, The Con boasts other features such as:

• Player Customization: The player's team of three characters can be molded with an exemplary range of appearance-altering options. Physique, clothing, and accessories are all up for modification and the ability to import photographs allows for an infinite number of player faces – familiar, famous, or otherwise.
• Multiplayer Mode: Takes a traditional route of providing one-on-one matches. Single-UMD game sharing is included, but players with two copies of The Con get the added benefit of being able to place unlocked items as a stake in their victory.
• Refined Version: As part of the enhancements introduced for the European release of The Con, players will find loading times have been shortened and tweaks have been made to the overall difficulty level.

Independent videogame publisher SouthPeak Games came up with a press release today regarding three titles that it will be launching in UK beginning March. There's one slated for the PSP and the two others are both for Xbox 360 and Windows platform.

Sometime around early March, our UK friends will finally get their hands on The Con. In case you are not familiar with this one - if that's even possible - it is actually a fighting game developed by Think and Feel Inc. and originally published by SCEA.

Aside from ol' school street fighting, The Con requires players to have tactical expertise, physical skill, and psychological guile to succeed. Betting is also very much part of gameplay as it will influence the outcome of the game.

Moving on, the other two titles are Monster Madness: The Battle for Suburbia and Two Worlds. Given the popularity of these two, no lengthy introductions are necessary. But for those who are not in the know, Monster Madness is somewhat a homage to B-movie horror genre with four college kids battling it out against hordes of the undead using homemade weapons. It was developed by Artificial Studios and will be released sometime in April.

Lastly, Reality Pump's Two Worlds came from the RPG genre which boasts of an innovative MMORPG mode. The main storyline is spiced with side quests, customizable combat options, and a beautifully crafted world. It should be expected by May both on the X360 and PC platform.
