February 6: wallet threat level yellow

The January doldrums are officially over! Which is a good thing, since it’s February. The very Fable-esque Kingdoms of Amalur: The Reckoning (pictured) will meet all your glib action RPG needs. Gotham City Impostors will meet all your Team Fortress 2 wanna-be needs. And The Darkness II once again mixes tentacles and mafiosos, in case that’s what you’re looking for in a shooter.

If you’ve got a Nintendo 3DS and you’ve not averse to some traditionally absurd survival horror, then Resident Evil: Revelations gets a seal of approval from this guy. Of course, that same guy is also really psyched that Rock Band gets a couple of Bush songs this week, so what does he know?
