Last week's batch of releases was quite flavorful, with a smattering of sports games (Deca Sports, We Ski) mixed in with a dash of adventure titles, such as Myst.

For the longest time in MMORPGs, the ability to use magic and wreak devastating damage with it has never really had any obvious consequences on your character.
