Welcome to this week’s edition of “What’s New and What’s Cheap in the UK”, the weekly post telling you exactly what it says on the tin: what’s new and what’s cheap in Old Blighty. But fear not, international readers: where applicable prices will also be listed in Euros and USD.

Battlefield 3 releases this week on 360, PS3 and PC and pretty much overshadows the rest of this week’s titles, but if shooting dudes isn’t your kind of thing then Stronghold 3 storms onto PC, Disney Universe appears on the Wii, PS3 and 360, and on the downloadable front PixelJunk SideScroller hits PSN and War of the Worlds releases on XBLA.

On the deals side of things this week Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines is available for just £3.12 on PC from Impulse which is an amazing price for a truly great RPG, Coolshop has Deus Ex: Human Revolution on PS3 for £14.96, Xbox live gold members can get Costume Quest for 600 MSP and the Indie Royale Bundle launches with it’s first bundle of A.R.E.S. Extinction Agenda, Gemini Rue, Sanctum and Nimbus, the faster you jump onto this bundle the cheaper it is.
