The world's most reliable and relied-upon American Football videogame is back and, certain people say, better than ever for 2007 in the shape of Madden NFL 2008. Never one to shy away from updates and tweaks for its games, EA has surely surpassed itself this time around. Yes, there's a football game behind and beyond the EA Sports glitz, but goodness, the developer has really thrown its lot in with this iteration. Let's have a closer look at what's in store... There's an all-new 'Read and React' system which enables you to scan the field and identify individual strengths and weaknesses before every play. You can play to your team's strengths by immediately seeing what your opponent has planned and you can react as soon as the ball is snapped. Improved player intelligence provides more authentic gameplay on both sides of the ball, and you can stay on the field after every game to work on specific aspects of your game in Skill Drills mode. There's also a new Fantasy Challenge mode, in which you can apply your knowledge of the game to draft a dream football team, and go for elite superstars to add to your roster of key players. All-new player moves, including auto-motion and low-hitting tackles, plus ultra-smooth gameplay provide the most realistic NFL gaming experience ever.

Using wits and brute strength, murders can be solved in a number of different ways to keep players guessing throughout each suspenseful investigation. Condemned 2: Bloodshot takes the series to a whole new level by introducing a variety of thrilling online multiplayer modes including deathmatch, which promises to deliver the most brutal hand-to-hand combat experience the first person genre has ever seen.

Set between Street Fighter II and Street Fighter III, Street Fighter IV is the latest game in Capcom's long running and famous beat 'em up series, and the first all-new Street Fighter game since 1999. Street Fighter, along with Mortal Kombat, is something of a legend among arcade beat 'em up fans. Where recent console versions of MK have moved into the third dimension, Street Fighter has remained true to its 2D arcade origins, although the backgrounds in SFIV are lovingly-rendered in 3D. The characters too are 3D rendered, and then visually treated to make them look like traditional 2D computer characters. The result is the best looking Street Fighter game the world has yet seen. All your favourite characters are back, including Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and Blanka, along with a range of new characters that players may have seen in the arcade version of the game: Abel, Crimson Viper, Rufus and El Fuerte. But home console versions of the game also get extra charachters not included in the arcade version of SFIV, including Cammy and Fei-Long from Super Street Fighter II, Dan and Rose from Street Fighter Alpha, Sakura from Street Fighter Alpha 2 and Gen from Street Fighter. The action, as always is about head-to-head combat, but SFIV has some new features not seen in previous versions, and the return of some favourite features from previous versions. All new is the Focus Attack. This is a move where the player can absorb the power of his opponent's attack by holding the medium punch and kick buttons, and then use it in a counter attack. The longer the player absorbs attacks for, the more powerful his counter attack will become. Super Combos from previous games are back, and now there are Ultra Combos - long sequences of linked moves that you can unleash when your Revenge Gauge is full.

The original Kudos challenge. Speed alone will not win this race. "PGR 3" rewards the best drivers for their ability to execute bold moves as they race. Powersliding, pulling off a 360, getting airtime, staying on the race line, drafting and getting up on two wheels will earn gamers Kudos points for their style and skill.
The ultimate supercar collection. Gamers can live out all their dream car fantasies as they own more cool cars than they ever thought possible. Players can take the wheel of more than 80 authentically modeled and licensed supercars from manufacturers such as Ferrari, Dodge and Lamborghini. With fully modeled interiors, functioning dashboards and individually recorded engine roars, life truly begins at 170.
A world of living, breathing cities. "PGR 3" transports gamers to intricately modeled popular locations, including New York, Tokyo and multiple other cities. The tracks are brought to life and populated by thousands of people in the crowds - all motion-captured - making "PGR 3" a racing game that really has to be seen to be believed.

2006 FIFA World Cup lets gamers and soccer fans experience every footballer's dream of bringing home the biggest prize in world football. This EA Sports game challenges you to lead a nation's team through the highs and lows of qualification, as you play teams from your chosen continent in order to amass enough points to take you to the World Cup Finals. Alternatively, you can skip the qualifying and get straight to the tournament in all its Teutonic finery. As you compete in the 2006 FIFA World Cup mode, you get a passport which gets stamped every time you beat another team. Every country you defeat earns you a stamp, with bonuses for completing a FIFA WC Zone. Points can be earned as you conquer teams from around the world, and these can be spent in the virtual store, to buy kits and players, etc. There's a virtual magazine available in-game too, with all the news and statistics to keep you abreast of all the tournament's happenings. There's an interesting Objectives mode included in 2006 FIFA World Cup which comes with a range of demands, such as providing a feast of goals to keeping your team's hopes alive against the odds. You can practise your spot kicks in the Penalty Shootout so you're ready for those tense moments after extra time has elapsed with neither team able to get ahead. But 2006 FIFA World Cup is really all about the tournament itself, and it's comprehensive alright. We like to think we're well-travelled men of the world, but Cape Verde from the African qualifying group caught us out and had us reaching for the world atlas - at least until we noticed that the game menu was showing us in pinpoint detail where this island is. And did you know that Paraguayans have two native languages? No, us neither, until we started to pay attention to the menu screens. Very educational. 2006 FIFA World Cup is sufficiently different from EA's aesthetically similar FIFA 06 - no faffing about too much with the management side of things for a start - and the strict tournament qualifying structure is a boon somehow. At the time of the game's original release, we're just a few weeks away from the tournament for real, and 2006 FIFA World Cup is the ideal warm up.

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2005 smash hit game, F.E.A.R., is a blend of advanced visceral combat mixed with seamless game pacing set inside a sinister and paranormal universe that begins shortly before the ending of F.E.A.R. A Special Forces squad is on a routine mission when the city of Auburn is rocked by a supernatural explosion. Alma, a girl with immense power and a thirst for revenge, has unleashed her wrath upon the city and thrown it into chaos. The squad must combat enemy forces and the supernatural as they struggle to find a way to stop Alma and uncover the mysterious forces arrayed against them before it's too late.

FIFA 11 reinvents player authenticity - on and off the ball - for every player and at every position on the pitch with Personality+, an all-new feature that sees individual abilities reflected in game, enabling clear differentiation for every player. Personality+ distinguishes individual footballers from one another by utilizing a database that evaluates and grades each player's skill-set over 36 attributes and 57 traits. The EA SPORTS FIFA franchise utilizes a network of 1700 scouts, editors and reviewers positioned around the world to evaluate each player, creating one of the world's most comprehensive databases to drive its market-leading football engine. Personality+ plus will be integrated everywhere in-game. Elite players are now empowered to showcase their world class skills. Real Madrid's Kaka will deliver crisp, creative passes, Barcelona's Andres Iniesta will utilize tighter turns and close control to dribble through defenses, Manchester United's Wayne Rooney will hold off defenders and strike shots from distance with pace, and top-flight defenders like Giorgio Chiellini of Juventus will anticipate, predict and react to offensive players to win back possession. New body types and player models will further distinguish each player on the pitch. In addition, goalkeepers have also been injected with Personality+. The real-life personality of the keeper, whether acrobatic or traditional, will dictate his style in game. Dive attributes will determine the keepers with the ability to reach for further shots while reflex attributes determine reaction times, so a keeper like Petr Cech of Chelsea FC will be able to showcase world-class skills. FIFA 11 introduces new Pro Passing where pass accuracy is determined by a gamer's ability on the control pad, and player skill, situation and urgency on the pitch, yielding a deeply rewarding passing system. Poor decisions or over/under striking the ball will mean error-prone outcomes. New types of passes such as swerve passes will enable players to make a safer and more effective play.

Set in a land rooted in ancient Persian mythology, the Prince finds himself caught in an epic battle between the primal forces of light and darkness: the God of Light, Ormazd versus his brother Ahriman, the destructive God of Darkness.

Manifested in the form of the Corruption, a dark substance that physically contaminates the land and the skies, the Prince must partner with Elika, a deadly companion, to heal the world from the evil Corruption.

BlackSite, developed by Midway Studios Austin, is a next-generation game that will redefine the first person shooter genre. While other FPS titles claim to feature "action-packed, highly realistic gameplay," BlackSite takes next-gen gaming to an all-new level integrating cutting edge technology, game design and story writing to create the ultimate entertainment experience. The player's modern-day emotions and fears are driven into a world charged with grave responsibility affecting lives hanging in the balance and eventually finding himself torn between his professional orders and his own ethical standards. In the end, only the actions of the player and his squad can shape the outcome of BlackSite during this potentially pivotal moment in history.

"Electronic Arts returns for the 2012/2013 football season with a new iteration of its single and multi-player soccer special. FIFA 13 comes with five innovations to add to the gameplay offered in FIFA 12. FIFA 13 also comes, of course, with more than 500 officially licensed clubs with more than 60 officially licensed stadia and more than 15,000 players to choose from. There is also a massive soundtrack with more than 50 tracks. The All-New Attacking Intelligence is the most sophisticated artificial intelligence that EA has managed to program in a FIFA title so far. AI players can now analyse space to enable them to work harder and smarter in order to break down the gamer's defence. Also added is a new dribbling system that has been inspired by Barcelona and Argentina star Lionel Messi. Called "Complete Dribbling" it enables players to face their opponent and use precise dribble touches combined with true 360-degree. The next addition is the "FIFA 13 1st Touch Control" system that makes the AI opposition less perfect and more realistic in order to make battling for the ball more of a challenge. The second generation of the Player Impact Engine is also included in FIFA 13. This expands physical play from collisions to off-the-ball battles between players. Defenders can push and pull for position, and use their unique sizes and strengths to force opponents into poor touches and decisions before the ball arrives. "FIFA 13 Tactical Free Kicks" enable the gamer to create new and unpredictable free kicks positions and strategies: up to three players can congregate over the ball and then make dummy runs or use new passing options. The EA Sports team has also ensured that "FIFA 13 Fundamentals", the essential elements in footy have been retained. Importantly, referees will now make better decisions when awarding fouls and cards, and goalkeeper intelligence has been improved. Standard FIFA elements such as local and Internet split-screen multiplayer as well as FIFA Ultimate Team and Career Mode are retained."

Attacking and Offensive Driving - Players must not only try to win the race but survive against the other racers. Combat-like racing takes centre stage as the vehicles are the weapons.
Stunning Environments - MotorStorm features amazing scenic environments that capture some of America's most recognizable desert landmarks with wide-open plains, harrowing cliff edges, and tight canyon sections.
Cutting-Edge Artificial Intelligence - The A.I. will be able to analyze the race and surroundings and react in the most realistic manner possible. Not only will the competition try to win the race at all costs, but the A.I. will react to situations realistically, such as locating the best routes and changing the level of driving aggression based on player actions.
Real-time Track Deformation - Players will never experience the same track twice as each vehicle will carve up the track in varying depths, making navigation of each lap different than the last.
Real-time Audio Manipulation - An entirely new in-game music experience where echo and reverb are filtered in, delivering a unique live music experience during each race.

"With the presence - yet again - of Rooney and Ronaldinho on the cover of FIFA 09, you may be forgiven for thinking that Electronic Arts has dressed up its last football game in slightly different garb, but no. There are more than 250 additions and enhancements to the core gameplay in the 360 version alone (each platform get its specific features in this year's iteration too). FIFA 09 for 360 enables the player to customise the game to suit their ability and playing style. For the first time on this platform, you can take advantage of the improvements in the game engine to customise your team's strategy and the positioning of your teammates to dictate how your team will play in any given situation. The popular Be A Pro feature - introduced last time around - has expanded to a career mode called Be A Pro: Seasons, where you can choose or create a player and then master a single outfield position over a four year period with the ultimate aim of becoming a soccer legend. The 360 version also features Adidas Live Season, wherein you receive weekly player form updates based on real world data. There are fully licensed leagues from the UK, Europe and the rest of the world, as well as all the international teams you can think of, and some you may have overlooked. The matchday experience is so true-to-life with a referee and linesmen on screen, and with the stadium atmosphere and commentary all regionalised in great detail. All this, and especially of note for England fans, the new Wembley too!"

"The new football season brings with it the new FIFA from Electronic Arts Sports label. As ever, a host of additions and tweaks have been made to the long-standing sports series, the most obvious of these being the new Player Impact Engine. This is in fact a brand new physics engine that aims at replicating the real crunch and thrust of the football field in attack, midfield and defence as player comes into contact with player. Basically it's the kind of hardcore collision detection that will make tackles and shoulder-to-shoulder barges more likely to result in actual impacts that can change the course of a game. They can also result in "True Injuries" where contact between players in real-time means tough times for player and manager as new types of injuries and different healing times have to be contended with. Player Impact Engine is joined by the new Precision Dribbling tech that enables better and tighter control providing for more time to make decisions on the attack, and more control over the pace of the game. It's not all about attack though. Defence and defenders have also been improved with a new Tactical Defending addition which makes positioning and intercepting passes as important as hard tackling. AI players are pumped up with "Pro Player Intelligence", which enables them to make tactical and strategic decisions using stats drawn from their own skills and tendencies. FIFA 12 comes with 500 officially licensed clubs and more than 15,000 players from around the world of football. All of this is wrapped in a redesigned menu system with customizable a Main Menu based on arena player, Virtual Pro and favourite club areas."

"Brother versus brother, hero versus hero! Dark times are indeed afoot in the Marvel Universe as seen through the lens of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, follow-up to 2006's superhero team brawler from Raven Software. The sequel brings a new developer (Vicarious Visions) and new focus to the Ultimate Alliance series, but the same core four-man action role-playing gameplay remains. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 has a tighter, grittier slant on the Marvel heroes than its predecessor, focusing less on the cosmic side of Marvel and more on the heroes' interaction with the government. Namely, following an accident involving superheroes that cost hundreds of civilian lives, the US government has decided that all heroes must be registered. On the one hand you've got the pro-registration heroes who see signing up as a necessary step to regain public trust and maintain national security, on the other you've got the anti-registration heroes, who see government involvement in super-heroics as an assault on civil liberties. That might sound familiar... Anyway - you can guess what follows, right? A big ol' super-hero smackdown! After the first act you'll have to choose sides, which fixes the number of characters available to you for a while. As the story progresses, however, more and more of your favourites turn up to create a roster of playable characters that eventually swells to being 24-strong. Gameplay is essentially hack and slash brawling with a liberal sprinkling of role-playing game elements. At any given time you'll have four playable characters on screen, which you can swap between at any point. Up to four players can team up both online and off, enabling you to get the most out of your line-up. You'll also get added experience point (XP) for having certain line-ups, such as the Fantastic Four or X-Men, on screen at any given moment. Teamplay also pays off with the newly-introduced fusion attacks, which involve characters combining powers to devastating and spectacular effect. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is, essentially, the world's greatest superhero team-up. For comics fanboys and gamers alike, that's a lot to love."
