In these trying economic times, it’s hard to be a gamer.  The big PS3 title “Shooty Shooty Bang Bang Gunfight 2″ is tantalizingly out of financial reach, but you still want to play great games.

That’s what I’m here for.  Join me today as I take a look at two great titles, Pikmin for the Nintendo consoles, and Silent Hill 2, a multi-console release.

With all these savings, you can probably conserve your cash for the really important things in life.  Like aglets and silly bands, or whatever crazy things kids buy these days.

Pikmin 3 – it was announced a good two years ago at E3 2008, but we still haven’t seen anything about it.  While we shall go another day without any Pikmin 3 details, Miyamoto said at the British Academy Video Game Awards that the title is “well under way.”

With Nintendo’s second half of the year being pretty much empty minus Zelda , late 2010 does sound like a potential window for the title. Hopefully we will get at least a glimpse of the title at this years E3.
