With the gaming market slowly spluttering back into action after its Christmas hiatus, the early months of 2012 will see the arrivals of Mass Effect 3, a new Final Fantasy, Max Payne 3 and Soul Caliber V. Unfortunately we have no such excitement this week, but it's all about pacing yourself right? Here's what games are coming out this week:

Ski-Doo: Snowmobile Challenge (Xbox 360/PS3) 
Well-known Skimobile manufacturer (or at least in Skimobile circle) Ski-Doo bring out a game unsurprisingly about snowmobiles. It boasts itself as the most authentic snowmobile game ever, is there much competition?

Steel Armor - Blaze of War (PC)
This war strategy game with heavy emphasis on tank-driving features two very different modes, the top-down strategic war mode and the 3D driving mode which are vastly different. Both look very engaging. Will this take tank-driving sims to the next level?
