(Note: All platform release lists are posted after the break; use "Continued" button below.)
Play war or "play ball" — this week's releases are highlighted by Halo Wars and the start of (virtual) spring training. (Alas, with the East Coast blanketed in snow, real baseball seems a long way off.)
Also this week: HAWX (PS3/X360), Empire: Total War (PC), Sonic and the Black Knight (Wii), Peggle (DS), and the resurgence of multiple — yes, multiple — PSP releases.
