Lost Planet 2 (above) and Skate 3 highlight the coming week. But let's do this roundup a bit differently and, I hope, in a way that's a little more useful and interesting to you.

Monday (May 10)
Photo Dojo (DS): It's a chop-socky side-scroller/fighter, but more importantly, it gets you into the action, with often hilarious results. Available free on the DSiWare Shop until June 10.
