Another week beyond the Grand Theft Auto IV launch, another super slim lineup of new games. By super slim, we mean precisely one game. The game in question is UEFA Euro 2008 from Electronic Arts. After a quick wiki, we have discovered that UEFA stands for Union of European Football Associations, so ... it's a soccer game then. But what's this? According to Metacritic, it's actually a pretty good soccer game. For all the true football fans out there, this week is for you. The rest of you can wait for June 3.

Am I alone in not being interested in Ninja Gaiden 2 then? Wasn't impressed by the first game at all.

Instead, I'll be caning it around in the shiny world of GRID, methinks.

i can't believe you didn't know UEFA Euro 2008 was a soccer game, then again you are American and soccer is not a big sport in your country - that's what i always hated when i lived there only NFL, NBA, MLB. soccer ftw!!!!!!

pretty cool.
