Make no mistake about it, PC games utterly dominate this week. And while they're mostly re-releases of existing titles and late-arriving console ports, the PC still has more titles arriving this week than all the consoles put together.

Scroll down for all the details, or jump directly to the PC, PlayStation 2 and Wii listings. If available, more information can be found by clicking on the box art or game name.

Barring any unforeseen delays, most North American retailers should have this week's games by Wednesday, April 9.

I just watched a YouTube video of Arcana Heart in action... Yeah, this has to be one of the most annoying sounding (And looking) 2D fighting game that I have ever seen. What kind of sweaty pants otaku plays a 100% moe themed fighting game? :/

BTW... Baroque looks like a pretty good game.

Just played "The Witcher" demo all sunday and will go get that game asap. Very nicely done, another game that is worth buying, instead of just deleting the demo after 5 minutes playtime.

I just pre-ordered Arcana Heart. I'm hoping that turns out to be a pretty decent fighting game. I'm really bummed the Fatal Fury Battle Archives doesn't have Garou: Mark of the Wolf.
