After GTA grit comes a bundle of High School Musical joy

Considering the $400 million blow out that is the launch of GTA IV, it's a wonder any other publishers are bothering this week.

In fact, very few of them are. Sega has to release Iron Man as it's the week the movie opens, of course – although for some reason the PSP version is out next Friday. (Presumably it's benefiting from another layer of Brasso – boom boom!)

Other than that, though, the only other handheld game to be released is the Ultimate Board Game Collection on PSP, which as far as we can tell is only available via GAME.

Things are looking up next week, however. Especially on DS. The long-awaited Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney is out, even though the third and final instalment of the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney series, Trials and Tribulations has yet to be released in Europe.

Go figure, Nintendo.

The game of the Speed Racer film is also rushing in but the GTA IV for young girls will certainly be the return of Troy, Gabriella, Ryan, Sharpay, Chad and Taylor as they try to dance their way to winning the Star Dazzle talent show in High School Musical: Work This Out.

And, thankfully, there won't be a Serbian hitman in sight.
