Thanksgiving is over, and it’s time to look back on the week in which we stuffed ourselves. Don’t worry, I feel guilty too. In order to distract everyone from the eventual weight loss they’re going to have to pursue, why not take a look at some of the best of this week’s news from around the network?
At Destructoid, it’s pretty obvious what the big stories and cool features have been this week — the Assassin’s Creed 2 review. Over at Japanator, we’ve kicked off our holiday shopping guide, with plenty of manga recommendations to help out your gift-giving endeavors. You should also be watching our video review of Evangelion 1.01. Tomopop has some nice goodies this week, but be sure to check out the ever-cute What Toys Are Up To column.
