We've decided to bring back the weekly AusGamers games release news post, especially now that the year is closing out with a host of releases.

This week you can expect a few big-name titles, starting on Thursday the 25th with Gran Turismo 5, exclusive to the PlayStation 3, alongside Disney's Epic Mickey exclusively for the Wii. Tron: Evolution hits PS3, Xbox 360 and PC while NBA Jam also swishes onto store-shelves for the PS3 and Xbox 360. A classic reimagined, Splatterhouse, arrives on PS3 and Xbox 360 alongside Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom for the same platforms. Prince of Persia Trilogy arrives on PS3 in 3D and Pokemon rear their 'catch 'em all' heads on Nintendo DS with Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs finishing up the core experience with Ghost Recon for Wii.

Casual games also invade on Thursday with Michael Jackson: The Experience landing on Wii/DS and Sports Island Freedom on Kinect.

Friday the 26th sees the much anticipated box release of Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare for PS3 and Xbox 360.

That's it for this week. If there's anything we missed, be sure to drop a line in the Comments section, or just let us know what you plan on picking up out of such a mammoth list of games.
