New releases: Fun with criminals

Also, Wind Waker HD

Get giddy, chums. It’s time to stretch those car jacking limbs because Grand Theft Auto V is upon us. Jim’s already devoured it and has given us the low down, but come tomorrow, you’ll be enjoying it yourself. It’s rare for me to patiently (or, rather, impatiently) wait for a postman to deliver a game on launch day, but I’ll be sitting by my door, in my dressing gown, panting like a rabid dog waiting for him tomorrow morning. 

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD is also dropping, at least in digital form, and I might need to feed it to my Wii U. I unfortunately must confess that it’s one of the few Zelda titles that I’ve never played, so I’m keen to fix this gap in my experience. Other things are also releasing, so let us solemnly raise a glass to those brave enough to release titles the week that both Grand Theft Auto and Wind Waker launch. So brave.
