Lots of good stuff hitting the Xbox this week.

Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict

  • ESRB: “M”
  • MSRP: $49.99
  • Publisher: Midway

The frantic FPS multiplayer action that you loved in Unreal Championship is back with a heavy dose of third-person melee combat in Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict. With solid gameplay, and great visuals and sound, UC 2 has it all. Featuring Xbox Live multiplayer as well as a beefy single-player campaign, UC2 looks like a winner.

Psychonauts

  • ESRB: “T”
  • MSRP: $49.99
  • Publisher: Majesco

Psychonauts is a third-person adventure set in the twisted minds of misfits, monsters, and madmen. The goal is to collect fragments of other peoples’ imaginations, sort their emotional baggage, clear out the cobwebs, and crack open their memory vaults. The gameplay is just as interesting as the premise behind the game so you can be sure that Psychonauts will be a game you’ll remember for a long time to come.

Stolen

  • ESRB: “T”
  • MSRP: $39.99
  • Publisher: Hip Games

Stolen is, according to Hip Games, an ultra-realistic, third-person, stealth / action game where you play as a sexy high-tech female thief. Sounds good so far. Your goal is to break into the most heavily guarded locations you can find and steal any priceless swag you can find. We’ll have to wait to see how it plays.

WWE Wrestlemania XXI

  • ESRB: “T”
  • MSRP: $49.99
  • Publisher: THQ

After two sub-par Raw games, THQ has handed the reigns of the next Xbox WWE game to a different developer and things look to be right on track. The gameplay has been completely reworked and now includes a pro reversal system where every single move in the game can be reversed. Xbox wrestling fans don’t really have any other choice, but Wrestlemania XXI is looking very promising. We’ll see this week.
