Everything ships to retail

[09.26.01] » ICO, Monster Rancher 3, Silent Hill 2, Dragon Warrior Monsters 2, Phantasy Star Online Ver. 2, Kessen II and One Piece Mansion all set to arrive in stores this week.

   The end of summer always brings a slew of releases, but seldom do so many games within the GIA's coverage find their way to retail at one time as this week. Whether due to shipping delays or sheer scheduling perversity, ICO, Monster Rancher 3, Silent Hill 2, Dragon Warrior Monsters 2, and Phantasy Star Online Ver. 2 should all be arriving in stores today. The barrage doesn't end there, however. Kessen II should land on store shelves by the 27th, and Capcom's puzzler One Piece Mansion tops off the week on Friday.

   Reviews for ICO and Monster Rancher 3 have already been posted; expect the GIA to weigh in on the other games soon, as our staffers struggle to keep up with the relentless onslaught of games.
