2011 keeps on rolling with another high profile release this week (Dead Space 2). In addition to Isaac Clarke’s latest adventure, and the other retail releases, some big demos will be hitting the Xboox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network. I don’t want to make it a habit of promoting demo releases, but these are too big to pass up.
Check out some of the titles releasing this week:

Two Worlds II for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3- The sequel to what many called the worst game of 2007 looks to make up for its errors of the past with Two Worlds II.

If you are interested in the game, make sure that you check out Ben’s interview with Southpeak Games’ Aubrey Norris... good stuff.
